Senior Architecture Studio Professor Yuji Kishimoto Fall 2009
The collaboration by the participants in the projects displayed in this portfolio produces a benefit for all. This concept of collaborative approach is called “ 3C �, that is the abbreviation of creativity , collaboration , and common sense . The collaborators theoretically gain more than what they contribute. On behalf of the School of Architecture, I would like to enthusiastically thank the community in supporting Clemson University’s service oriented design education. - Yuji Kishimoto

Site [1]: E McBee Ave. + S Main St. Greenville3C Project Brief The Greenville3C project is an attempt to contribute to the further revitalization and expansion of the downtown area in Greenville, SC. This contribution takes place on two different sites along S Main St; the first at the intersection at E McBee Ave., and the second at E Broad St. Our goal is to assess the potential of these two sites through site analysis and propose a master plan for the expansion of the downtown area. Individual projects specific to one site are to be made in accordance with the 3Cs (creativity, collaboration and common sense) and with consideration of LEED qualification.

Master Planning As a group, our first step into the project was analyzing the current site. Phase 0: Current Plan. This shows the current plan of downtown Greenville, and it’s immediately obvious that Main Street is the only street that is heavily vegetated with trees. The effect of the trees canopying over the streets is quite nice at a pedestrian level, which is most likely the reason why Main Street holds most of Greenville’s foot traffic. Our main goal is to spread this same idea into the adjacent streets, giving Greenville the push it’s needed for a long time into expanding its urban connectivity, especially in a pedestrian sense. Phase 1: Parking Absorption. One negative factor of Greenville is the sprawl of unnecessary parking lots, when there are plenty of parking garages placed within the city. Phase 1 involves the absorption of said parking lots by the nearby parking garages, in order to put use to the spaces in a much more useful way. Phase 2: Pedestrian Connections. After the parking absorption phase, the new spaces created all around Greenville would be converted into parks, bike depots, and other pedestrian oriented nodes. From here, Greenville’s expansion truly begins.

Organic Chamber & Natural Light
Kyle Fant
Greenville, SC The downtown of Greenville is rapidly changing. Many trees have been implemented on Main Street to revive the downtown. There is only one problem: How does one attract pedestrians to search out more than just Main Street? I have proposed a dynamic building that shifts its weight to motion people to explore down McBee Avenue and discover the wonders of downtown. Trees are master planned into these newly found roads. The new mixed use building will house local shops and a restaurant on the main level, with leasable office space above. The building echoes the theme of Main Street by bringing plant life inside. This will provide a work space that is devoted to air quality and natural light to make a desired business and social community.

Rubato Gallery

Dynamic Corner Rubato - time is “borrowed”, or some tones are held longer than their actual values, while others are curtailed, in order to allow more freedom and spontaneity. Bringing the same concept of the master planning to site scale, the Rubato Gallery aims to activate the important corner of Main Street and McBee Avenue. It is a crucial step in the expansion and development of Greenville’s city personality and urban features at a street level experience. Currently, the majority of foot traffic in Greenville is along Main Street, the only street heavily lined with trees. In addition to the spreading of greenery to adjacent streets and throughout, street corners must be inviting as well. At the corner is a hardscape gathering space implemented under the large, open cantilevered structure of the building. The building itself will feature a four story, open-plan art gallery that can accommodate a number of exhibit arrangements. The open nature of these spaces contribute to the dynamic experience of the site.

A ramp structure that spirals along the perimeter of the building acts as the main circulation for the gallery, guiding the visitor through each foot of elevation. Underneath the ground level features a small cafe, naturally lit by the skylights from the entrance.

Greenville Expansion
Nicholas Barrett
Greenville Expansion Downtown Greenville is an expanding area of Greenville’s business district. It was our goal in this project to further this expansion with a contribution on one of two different sites. Both of these sites hold great importance as they lie on very significant intersections. The project developed as an attempt to link Main St. to the adjacent block by creating a pathway through the site. The descending staircase creates a spatial interaction that draws people into the site. Green screens on the office building provide shading as well as interact with the green roof of the gallery to form a dialogue of sustainability in the project. People are able to interact with the space in moments of both pause and transition.

Growing Downtown
Matthew Clever
Growing Downtown Having such a prominent downtown site creates pressure to not only recreate the downtown atmosphere, but also to take advantage of the lot size. The focus of this design was to imitate the traditional two story downtown facades, but also building up and creating a larger scaled design that fit the surrounding buildings. The end result was a protruding two story facade that catches the eye of the pedestrians passing next to the building, but from a farther distance the grandness of the building begins to take shape.
