STUDENT NEWS Externships, Activities & Events My week spent at HGA in Milwaukee was extremely valuable towards my future career in architecture. At my externship I was exposed to a large firm environment, and was surprised to find that I really enjoyed being in a larger size firm like HGA. The amount of available resources, amenities, and the “medium” firm feel it had made me feel extremely welcome and included. The sense of community within the firm was amazing, and it definitely is the type of atmosphere I hope to work in post-graduation.”

I am extremely grateful for this experience. Not only did I get to spend time with incredible people at an amazing firm, but I got to learn a little bit more about what the practice of architecture is like in a different state with an entirely different climate. I will definitely cherish the memories and insight I received during my short time in Austin. The experience will, undoubtedly, help influence the career choices I make in the future.”

After only four years the externship program has grown exponentially. In spring 2016 we placed 74 students (both grad and undergrad, architecture and urban planning) in 48 firms in and around Milwaukee, Madison, Chicago, and as far as Los Angeles and Austin, TX. Students continue to report back exceptional experiences at their host firms. We could not have created such a successful program without the support and participation of alumni firms. Although the focus of the externship is on a short exposure to professional experiences, we have confirmed

BEST WISHES TO SOME SPECIAL PEOPLE
SARUP Says Farewell and Best Wishes to a Number of Key Faculty and Staff After 10 years in the Department of Architecture, Associate Professor Manu Sobti departed UWM for the University of Queensland in Brisbane, Australia.
Professor Sobti held numerous fellowships at the University, including the Global Research Fellowship and Center for 21st Century Studies Fellowship, which fostered many interdisciplinary collaborations with faculty across UWM and the world.
SARUP Study Abroad: Paris 2016
With Professor Mark Keane (Photo by Leeann Wacker)
He co-coordinated the Buildings-Landscapes-Cultures (BLC) Program in collaboration with the Department of Art History at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, directed a number of student dissertation projects and expanded the impact of the Buildings-Landscapes-Cultures (BLC).
Paris!
I’m Lichen Paris
Sobti’s PhD students include Sahar Hosseini, whose research focuses on urban spaces and public institutions in pre-modern Persia and their metamorphosis during the passage to modernity; Kate Malaia, whose research includes the examination of social, spatial and aesthetic transformations of urban environments following the collapse of the Soviet Union; Nader Sayadi whose research covers the bilateral relationship between socio-geographical goods production networks and its interconnected craft landscapes in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries Middle East; and Leila Saboori, whose research focuses on the history of Middle Eastern cities and the way contemporary built environments have honored past values, tradition, and design principals.
By Leeann Wacker, MArch
There are many assumed aspects of studying abroad that are inescapable when preparing. The best and most valuable part of this experience is that while some of these assumptions certainly are true (like that everyone eats baguettes on the street, that wine is incredibly cheap, and the architecture of this city is breathtaking), most surprise you, either because they are truly unexpected, or simply because they’re not. Metro stations still have that stringent waft of urine, people still honk at pedestrians, it’s still easy to lose your way, and coffee is the best way to start the day.
These life changing experiences make you notice the subtle things that string all of these places together, and also make them distinctive from one another. Throughout my study abroad in Paris, I will be taking a microscopic perspective on these culturally significant monuments. It will be a summer of cataloging and creating a typology of lichen samples.
The Wisconsin Bicycle Federation names him “Advocate of the Year”
Professor Sobti’s expertise in non-Western history and global urbanity significantly impacted the School. He engaged a range of students in his research, including those in the doctoral program funded through global grants and undergraduate research assistants funded through the UWM SURF program, travelling with them on life-altering visits to Uzbekistan. Professor Sobti led numerous study abroad trips to India, including the recent Urban Edge Studio —“Rethinking the Urban Edge”—taking students to Delhi, Agra and Chandigarh.
STUDY ABROAD
Time flies and simultaneously stands still. We’ve already done what seems like a million things. Some things rapidly become familiar (like the metro and fumbling through French conversations), while others still seem beyond comprehension (like that I’m living in PARIS in a beautiful apartment, that I can get a fresh baguette right around the corner, and that I’ve climbed to the top of Chartres Cathedral).

UP INTERNSHIPS Urban Planning students can be found interning throughout the metro area. You will find them in the City of Milwaukee, City of Racine, City of Waukesha, and almost every suburb, in county planning departments from Sheboygan to Kenosha, in regional planning agencies, and in state agencies. Virtually all of our students take at least one semester-long internship opportunity during the two-year masters program, and most take two or more semesters or summers of internship. These opportunities allow our students to hone their practical skills in planning.

Professor Sobti raised the level of inquiry around topics of global history and theory at the School while seamlessly connecting his studio courses to research and critical thinking. He inspired students and faculty alike to become global citizens. His legacy at the School will be felt for many years to come. We are delighted to have been a part of Professor Sobti’s academic career and wish him the best of luck.
Visiting Architecture Fellow Antonio Furgiuele will be joining the faculty at the Wentworth Institute of Technology in Boston. As the SARUP Research Fellow, Adjunct Assistant Professor Furgiuele researched datascapes for architectural implications. Antonio’s contributions to school culture included leadership on events like Frozen Formfinding, Arch is for the Birds, ArtsBarge, and participating in SUPERjury. He had an enormous impact on the academic life of the School as well, coordinating ARCH 310. A heartfelt thanks to Antonio for all he has shared with us over the past two years. Urban Planning Professor Sammis White, one of the founding members of the Masters degree program in Urban Planning, retired this May after a long and illustrious career at UWM spanning 44 years. Dr. White focused on issues in public policy, economic development, education, and housing, with specific interests in job creation and education in central cities. White co-founded and for ten years co-edited the leading economic development journal, Economic Development Quarterly. In addition to his role at the school, he had been a faculty member at the UWM School of Continuing Education, most recently serving as Interim Dean and Director of Workforce Development. Professor White was active in the creation of the Milwaukee 7’s Water Council and the UWM School of Freshwater Sciences. He contributed to the creation of BizStarts Milwaukee and to a better understanding of the many issues impeding the Milwaukee 7’s initiative to bolster the region’s economy. His multiple positions allowed him to undertake research on a variety of urban issues and bring real-life lessons to the classroom. Such activities have contributed to White having won departmental, School, and University teaching awards. White was a central actor in the building of the water technology cluster in southeast Wisconsin and assisted the development of two other industrial clusters in Wisconsin. We will miss Sam’s presence at the School and thank him for his dedicated efforts on behalf of students and the profession. Steve Heidt, Assistant Dean and SARUP Business Manager, retired this spring after many years at School of Architecture and Urban Planning and the UWM College of Letters and Sciences Department of Biological Sciences. We wish him good luck in his future endeavors!
Invisibility in the Information Age Exhibition In the Fall of 2015 Research Fellow Antonio Furgiuele presented and exhibited his Fellowship Research Invisibility in the Information Age. This work highlights two crucial interconnected systems, the body and the domestic sphere, as a means to expand upon forms of architectural agency.
Urban Planning Faculty member Robert Schneider was promoted to Associate Professor with tenure. What a banner year for Bob. Since arriving in the Department of Urban Planning in January 2013, he has published 12 peer-reviewed articles in the sustainable transportation field covering topics such as characteristics of the top 100 cities in the United States for bicycle commuting, features of shopping districts that support walking and public transportation, and innovative methods to count pedestrians and bicyclists. As a national expert in pedestrian and bicycle planning, Bob has quickly become one of the most popular teachers on the faculty, reflecting a growing interest in multimodal transportation throughout the United States and in southeast Wisconsin. Bob uses his research experience to engage in local transportation planning issues. His Wisconsin Pedestrian and Bicycle Crash Analysis, conducted with Joe Stefanich (MArch/MUP 2016), was featured in multiple news stories and led to his recognition as “Advocate of the Year” by the Wisconsin Bicycle Federation. Bob also developed a Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) course along with colleague Lingqian (Ivy) Hu in fall 2015, allowing students to share their vision for stations, dedicated lanes, and system routes with local professionals and members of the public. Congratulations Associate Professor Schneider!

Beyond the Invisible Rainbow
Filip Tejchman Graham Foundation Grantee
Assistant Professor Filip Tejchman was named a Graham Foundation Grantee for his research Beyond the Invisible Rainbow. In his submission Filip writes: “Energy is everywhere. It surrounds us as electromagnetic radiation, an invisible rainbow outside the realm of human vision. Energy’s apparent immateriality is contrasted by the profound physical and material transformations it exerts on every known scale. Operating under the premise that design agency is constrained by the instruments and abstract models through which architects exercise control, as well as predict, verify, and reconstruct subjectivities, Beyond the Invisible Rainbow charts a projective history of architecture’s representation of energy as exemplified by the writing, curation, and artistic practice of György Kepes.” Image courtesy Marcel Ritter, Dr. Jian Tao, Haihong Zhao, LSU Center for Computation and Technology

In addition to the many activities and accomplishments that characterize the School —Marcus Prize Studio, SUPERjury, MASTERcrit, etc.—it has been a particularly gratifying year for UWM as a whole. This year, the University was awarded Research 1 status, catapulting us into the top 110 universities in the country—no mean achievement considering there are over 4,000 in total. I would like to claim Architecture and Urban Planning played a pivotal role in winning this distinction (and probably will, if I can get away with it), and certainly the recent recognition of our PhD program as the 3rd ranked in the country by the National Research Council helped. However, it is only fair to say that UWM has flourished as a major university in the past few years, growing far beyond its humble beginnings as a commuter campus, and now has many great, nationally known programs across the campus.

What if Urban Wood Waste didn’t have to go to the wood chipper, or worse, the landfill? What if it could serve a purpose? The BEEbrane seeks to do just that. Functioning in the space between Art and Architecture, the BEEbrane makes use of urban wood to create an installation that is simultaneously an urban honey bee habitat and an engaging public art piece. The BEEbrane began by researching honey bees, their habitats, beekeeping techniques, and other types of tree hollow dwelling animals. Characteristics of natural honey bee hives, specifically their geometry and solar orientation, were examined with regard to the sizing and placement of
the BEEbrane. Precedent research was the next step. A number of art installations by various artists and man-made honey bee hives were investigated to inspire innovative construction techniques.

A collective performance space able to travel along its public waterways allows the various communities to directly engage each other and the city as a living theater, offering unique experiences for performers, spectators, and future development of the city of Milwaukee. The Milwaukee Total Theater would be organized and developed by a pubic-institutional-governmental alliance to oversee its program throughout the year and develop other means in which it can further reach and enrich more communities in Milwaukee. The project currently has fiscal, managerial, and programmatic support from local community organizations to bring research conducted at UWM into a realized project in spring 2016.

serves as poor insulation, both from radiant solar energy and low temperatures, we were able to channel the excess pressure created by the blower into small vents on the inside of the structure. This method regulated airflow and helped to ventilate the interior. After spending time inside the structure on a hot summer day, we found that although the venting helped, the transparency of the plastic allowed for uncomfortable amounts of solar gain. Another problem that we encountered was its propensity to collapse under high winds. In the future, we hope to address both of these issues with a change in material—a move away from plastic and towards coated fabric. This would provide less transparency and a heavier skin to support the pneumatic structure against the elements.

MICROHOUSING
Mo Zell & Kelsey Kuehn The Next Generation of Domesticity
Mo Zell’s research with Kelsey Keuhn interrogates the history of microhousing with a focus on free-standing units while positing a new typology of units that work collectively to create a sustainable and affordable community. Reflecting distinct personalities of its end users, these units of micro-housing are actually six-paired prototypes. The six units magnify two conditions—one is the gable roof as an identifier of house and home, and the other is the reliance of the units to work collectively in creating a sustainable, viable community. The units not only work together as pairs but collectively as 12 units to harvest energy, water, and food. Each of the six prototypes takes on an identity from different
parts of a House while working in unison with another part of the House to create shared, public space between them. For example, The Dining Room, an A-frame unit, prioritizes the table as the communal space while collecting solar energy on its expansive vertical surfaces. The horizontal surface of reclaimed wood extends into the public realm creating more opportunities for gathering. The Dining Room unit is positioned to optimize solar gain at the edge of the site while capping the public space with this community table.

A Big, Dumb Building Workshop Description
By Andrew Zago, RA
Contemporary cities are complex organisms that defy any easy analysis or singular characterization. In the past hundred years cities have grown to dwarf the scale of historic human settlements, stretching to the limits of comprehension. Nonetheless there remains the physical fact of cities. They are composed not only of flows of capital, information, peoples, and resources, but also of the brute, inert, mass of buildings, streets, and infrastructure. These shaped things are unavoidable presences and, after they are shaped, to quote Churchill, “they shape us.” Given the breadth of pressing urban concerns, architecture may sometimes seem to be of minor importance. This workshop argues instead that architecture is an urgently needed element in cities and that it can uniquely provide them with defining new diagrams.
Modeled on the traditional notion of a “Master Class,” and conceived by Assistant Professor Jasmine Benyamin, MASTERcrit_2016 encompassed lectures, critiques and a workshop—all of which took place over the span of a four-day period. As with last year, the MASTERcritic was tasked with presenting a project brief to the charrette team that in some way reflected a current pre-occupation in his or her practice and research. The intent of the project was in part to bridge the discursive gaps between making, thinking, and building in a unique institutional setting. Ultimately, the students engaged a set of questions within and outside the project proposal while the work was evaluated via the fairly conventional confines of a “crit.” A primary goal of the event as a whole was to ask: how and in what ways could design— as discipline and practice - mediate pedagogy and the profession? Operating within the moniker of “Big Dumb Building,” Andrew Zago presented the MASTERcrit team with the following prompt: can cities be defined as agglomerations of “shaped things” made up of buildings behaving not unlike unruly guests at a party?
Since the latter half of the twentieth century, the very big building, in a city (the VBBC) has been variously theorized, embraced, ignored, grudgingly accepted, and vilified. By now we recognize it an inevitable, if occasional, product of advanced technologies, programmatic agglomerations, and flows of capital. This workshop proposes that there are still unrealized diagrams for the VBBC, ones in which such a building can become an unruly guest at a city’s party. This workshop proposes that such belligerent tectonic behavior can have novel consequences when foisted onto an urban fabric. What begins as harmless jostling when the buildings are considered in isolation, becomes boorish and potentially destructive behavior in the city. Not just the bigness theorized in S,M,L,XL but big explicitly as an affront to urban decorum and safety. Our model for this will be Godzilla. Sears Tower, Again. While Chicago can claim credit for significantly contributing to our understanding of the VBBC it has never—2011’s dreary Transformers: Dark of the Moon notwithstanding—been properly visited by a giant monster. This workshop will redress this slight by reimagining the Sears (Willis) Tower, again.

ARCH 410 Masonry Studio
During the fall 2015 Masonry Studio, 24 teams of students competed to design a brick masonry assembly before a jury of faculty and experts from the masonry industry. After an afternoon of interactive jury critiques, three top teams were selected to have their brick masonry design built full-scale as a mock-up in the School’s Commons. During the construction, student team members worked closely with master masons to realize their designs in “brick and mortar.” The winning student teams are listed to the right.

MASTERcrit_2016
Andrew Zago, Zago Architecture
By Jasmine Benyamin, Assistant Professor
Following the success of last year’s inaugural MASTERcrit event at SARUP that hosted MOS Architects, MASTERcrit_2016 took place at the beginning of the spring semester, whereby prominent architect Andrew Zago was invited to work on a project with some of the School’s best students.
Zago thus positioned the charrette as a conversation in and through ideas, images, and objects. The resultant work manifested a mash-up of popular culture, intermingled with past and present zeitgeists. What he coined “awkward displays of expertise” were encircled by “Back to the Future” form-making via Godzilla, full frontal façadism, slapstick tectonics, and “too big to fail” scale.

At the onset of our work we looked to the past to inform the present. Ant Farm’s Inflatocookbook (1971), a do-it-yourself manual for creating inflatable (a.k.a. pneumatic) architecture, was a jumping-off point for us. Our goal was to improve upon their methods and to bring the pneumatic into the 21st century. As opposed to the single membrane construction primarily seen in the Inflatocookbook, we decided to pursue a double membrane surface because it offered more possibilities for optimum formal, structural, and thermal performance. We used heat seaming to meld two layers of plastic sheeting together, leaving space between the seams. This spacing determined the size of the air-filled ribbing, which in turn impacted the rigidity of the construction. Because plastic itself

Next, urban wood scraps were collected from a local tree service to produce a series of small scale studies that explored formal potentials. From there, larger experiments were produced to meet the functional needs of the honey bees and further explore the project’s artistic expression. Investigations were then done using the offcuts from the original form studies to demonstrate how the “waste” pieces could achieve some of the desired effects.

2016 SUPERjury Awards & Honors With Joyce Hwang, Jonathan Massey & Juan Miró
SUPERjury, started in 2008 by Associate Professor Mo Zell, has grown into an AIAS, student-funded, annual allschool award program that celebrates the exceptional and diverse design work being generated at the School. AIAS president Julian DiMaio led a superb team of students in fundraising, as well as providing behind-the-scenes organization to make this a fantastic all-school event showcasing design work at all levels of the program from sophomore level studios to Master’s thesis work. This day of review, discourse, stimulating ideas, and imagery was made possible by a joint effort of the AIAS, SARUP staff, and Department of Architecture faculty. The quality and quantity of work presented at SUPERjury in May was stupendous, representing the enormous range of intellectual diversity present at SARUP. Nominees for
the event were selected from over 900 projects from the fall 2015 and spring 2016 classes. Ninety were displayed for selection by the SUPERjurors, who were impressed by the vast range of project types, concepts, and techniques. This has become an opportunity to celebrate our achievements and discuss the future trajectory of the School. Three SUPERjurors provide an outsider’s perspective on the student work relative to broad issues effecting curriculum development and education. This past year invited jurors included Joyce Hwang, Associate Professor, University of Buffalo & Architect/Director ANTS OF THE PRAIRE; Jonathan Massey, Dean and Professor, California College of the Arts; and Juan Miró, FAIA LEED AP, Professor UT-Austin and Founding Partner Miró Riveria Architects. The jurors selected 23 projects representing the work of 34 students.

From Waste to Wonder Design Studio Student Work FA ‘15
Institute of Ecological Design / Joint Effort Studio
The production of Waste is a dynamic cultural phenomenon that effects social, spatial, and ecological orders. Habits of disposal are deeply ingrained in our daily lives—so casual and continual that we rarely ever stop to ponder the bigger picture. Challenges with trash disposal have grown critical in today’s crowded world. Re-thinking the ways in which we collect and dispose of our Waste, including innovative methods of design, are essential to ensure a more sustainable future.
The Inner Harbor Project has involved over 60 design studios and classes, and produced a dozen MArch Thesis projects. It has involved student work from UW–Madison and IIT, and it has led to several spin-off demonstration projects that have the potential to make some of the ecological ambitions of the Inner Harbor Project real. This exhibition surveys the results, describes proposed demonstration projects, and concludes with a vision of the Inner Harbor’s ecological and economic restoration.
Nikole Bouchard, Assistant Professor
From Waste to Wonder was a research and design studio in the School of Architecture & Urban Planning that encouraged students to challenge their preconceived notions of Waste. Students conducted indepth research of various waste flows within Milwaukee to produce projects that were thoughtful, inventive, and oftentimes unlikely approaches to design. This student work straddles the boundaries between architecture, art, and landscape with a specific focus on how the thoughtful intersection of these disciplines can stimulate ecologically sensitive and culturally relevant design interventions.

2016 SPRING AIA Certificate of Merit
Making a Difference
Students at University of Wisconsin– Milwaukee School of Architecture & Urban Planning put their training into action facilitated through a number of top honors.
“Forward House,” the team’s entry, is located in Milwaukee in a neighborhood blighted by foreclosure in the 30th Street corridor. A return to a classic Wisconsin craftsman style with a Milwaukee flair will help reinvigorate the neighborhood while remaining true to its roots. The overarching goal is to provide an affordable home with a people-centered interior design that will deliver comfort and high-energy performance, reducing the cost of living for a first-time home owner.
THE LEENHOUTS SCHOLARSHIP
RESEARCH INTERNSHIPS
The Leenhouts Scholarship is the legacy of Lillian & Willis Leenhouts (FAIA) who practiced architecture in Milwaukee from 1945 to 1990. The work is characterized by sensitivity to site, poetically marrying the beauty of nature with passive solar design, and functional planning. Typically designed with a modest yet sensitive public presence, the work examines the role of communal spaces and their relationship to the outdoors.
The School has sixteen week research internships with Valerio Dewalt Train and HGA. The students that are selected receive a $3000 stipend and work in the firm’s office on a research project of interest to the firm and in line with the student’s skill set. Interns are required to produce a written document detailing their activities.
Introducing Gerri Witthuhn, the 2016 Leenhouts Scholar
Lillian was a co-founder of the University of Wisconsin– Milwaukee School of Architecture & Urban Planning, was the first licensed female architect in Wisconsin, and served as the first woman on the Wisconsin Architectural Licensing Board. She received an honorary doctorate from UW–Milwaukee, and in 1975 she and Willis were inducted into the AIA College of Fellows. In addition to building communities physically, Lillian and Willis built them by reaching out to the community. They taught construction repair to low-income homeowners and renters and conducted art, reading, gardening, and music lessons for under-privileged children. Lillian established the Architect’s River Committee and was an early supporter of the cleanup of the Milwaukee River and catalyst for the Riverwalk. Building their reputation on modernist design with regional and environmental sensitivities, the firm designed over 500 built and unbuilt works. Lillian’s strength of character and commitment to architecture serve as inspiration for a $5,000 annual scholarship offered at the School. It was initiated in 1990 with contributions from professional associates and friends of Lillian and Willis Leenhouts and has supported 26 scholars including this year’s scholar Gerri Witthuhn. Gerri Witthuhn is an MArch student with a BS in Political Science and Anthropology from UW–Madison. She was awarded a fellowship position with Environment America where she advocated for legislation that promoted the protection of clean air, clean water, and open spaces. In 2009, Gerri traveled to Namyangju-si, South Korea where she taught English courses at a rural elementary school as well as a women’s community group. She returned to the U.S. where she attained her LEED accreditation and volunteered on the Wisconsin Green Building Alliance North East Steering Committee. To further her interest in sustainability and public interest design Gerri worked as a project assistant at Community Design Solutions, and interned at 450 Architects and HGA.
With Valerio Dewault Train (Chicago) and HGA (Milwaukee)
In 2015, PhD student Payman Sadeghi conducted building performance research for HGA. This included conducting pre- and post-occupancy evaluations for research purposes, conducting literature searches, and collecting quantitative and qualitative data. Interns at Valerio Dewalt Train have been part of an ongoing four year project called “The Future of the Future.” Each summer focuses on a different typology; beginning with The Future of Work in 2013, followed by The Future of Learning in 2014, the Future of Pleasure in the summer of 2015, and a retrospective in 2016.

Inspired by the title of the inaugural Chicago Architecture Biennial (The State of the Art of Architecture) this year’s Burnham Prize challenged participants to develop a single image that represents a strong point of view that explores the question: What is the State of the Art of Architecture today? “We are living in a golden age of architectural projects —there are the archivists, the hair guy, the pattern people, the “robots should be tools” people, the “robots should be buildings” people, the grasshopper scripters, the atmospherics, the collage makers, the technoutopians, the techno-dystopians, the technophiles, the trace people, the new tectonics people, the old tectonics people, the hanging string people, the gooey bubble people, the entrepreneurial talkers who read Fast Company, the techno-fabulists who read Wired, the TED talkers, the people who want trees to be buildings,

Their submission, Virtual Memorial, is an app that allows users to engage with the city. They can download different curated walks that alert the user via GPS of significant events that had occurred at that specific site as they stroll through the city. These events become visceral because they are place specific. The user is connected to the event/place transcended through time.

2015-2016 CDDF
Transformative Discussions
SARUP’s Community Design & Development Forum (CDDF) series provides an occasion to study the impacts of transformative developments in metro Milwaukee and focuses on opportunities leveraged by community-changing initiatives. A presentation of graduate student work, balanced with professional insight, generates an informed analysis of the trends and strategies behind these projects. Panel discussions this past year included the following: 1) How can our city and region best leverage the Milwaukee Bucks’ planned development? 2) How will changes in the Inner Harbor integrate with the surging real estate market in Walker’s Point, and how will leaders leverage these two tides to address issues of economic and racial disparities, as well as promoting integrated neighborhoods 3) How will the Milwaukee region be ready to make the necessary investments for Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) success?

Bus & Rapid Transit Work Women in Design 2015-16
During the fall 2015 semester, students in the UWM Bus Rapid Transit Workshop Course developed a vision for bus rapid transit (BRT). Led by Urban Planning Associate Professors Robert Schneider and Lingqian (Ivy) Hu, the 22 students created conceptual drawings of stations, dedicated bus lanes, interfaces local transit routes, and a system map—images that suggest BRT is a fast, attractive system that could provide excellent regional connectivity. Milwaukee County is currently working with other public agencies to conduct more detailed analyses to quantify the potential impacts of BRT as a part of an official planning process. The students’ initial analyses helped inform this real-life project. We hope that these ideas continue to contribute to the public discussion around creating a highquality rapid transit system.
Associate Dean Mo Zell started Women in Design (WID) in 2014. This networking group comes together monthly to hear from significant figures in the Milwaukee community and conducts mentoring events. Membership is open to women working in any design-related profession including but not limited to architecture, landscape, interior design, public health, fine arts, and graphic design. The strength of the organization is its diversity of membership as well as the range of experiences among its members. The School hosted a WID speed mentoring event in February. Over 30 women at various stages of their careers attended the event sponsored by Sprecher Brewery and SARUP. Architecture and Urban Planning students met with emerging and senior professionals to converse about work, work-life balance, and professional experiences.

“The discipline needs a new means to coalesce, by holding a mirror onto itself and abandoning old models of fracture and bifurcation. Instead, these little projects should nest together to form the next big thing.” – Kyle Reynolds and Jeff Mikolajewski.

Nate Piotrowski (MUP) Receives 2015 UWM Alumni Association Graduate of the Last Decade Award
Like a medieval continent, the discipline of architecture has been divided and subdivided into an ever-expanding number of fiefdoms, each guarded by a greedy aristocrat committed to his role as lord of the land. These landed gentry, who hold property for future gains such as tenure, a curatorial position, or a show at the upcoming biennale, now dominate the discipline. In this world, there are virtually no buildings and there is nothing to protect, just miles and miles of rhetorical fortifications enclosing fallow land and the odd pavilion or installation.

Graduating Staff
The timing of laboratory activities coincided with the citywide events of the Chicago Biennial, a unique, threemonth celebration of Chicago’s great architecture focused on “The State of the Art of Architecture.” As international architects, artists, and design professionals converged on Chicago through a series of lectures, workshops, and exhibits, the DLS students were able to choose from a long list of unique design activities. The lab itself, directed by Adjunct Associate Professor Matt Jarosz in collaboration with Marit Gamberg, HPI Research Assistant and Associate Professor Gil Snyder, was the location of a series of lectures and workshops focused on heritage building technologies, including mass timber and stone, laser scanning, and design proposals for historic restorations and building additions.

The intent of the lab was to merge the curriculum studies of the Historic Preservation program with the advanced software and technology studies of the IP_BIM studio. Anticipating the movement toward environmental sustainability and reuse of our great heritage places, the lab offered insights into a new dynamic in the professional office. Students were challenged to understand technical and intentional realities of historic fabric by using advanced laser scanning technologies, new investigative techniques and tools, sophisticated software modeling programs, and interaction with professional designers and contractors.

In the fall of 2015, Layla Qarout (PhD candidate) presented a paper (along with her advisor, Associate Professor Michael Utzinger) at the Passive and Low Energy Architecture (PLEA) conference in Bologna, Italy. The paper was “Reducing Environmental Impacts of Building Structures through Local Material Sourcing.”
Faculty at the University of WisconsinMilwaukee School of Architecture & Urban Planning receive top accolades locally and nationally.
“The space is constructed with three primary materials: wood, cotton canvas and jute. Large sheets of canvas are suspended from the wooden structure. These canvas sheets are fastened to the jute cables at the top of the structure to create a series of flexible walls. The arrangement of the canvas sheets creates a cloak that provides a sense of security and comfort for the user(s), as if being wrapped in a warm blanket. An oculus provides stunning views of the sky above.” Following Sukkot, the Canvas Cocoon was disassembled and the materials brought back to Milwaukee where they will be used by local groups to create art.

In the fall of 2015, Payman Sadeghi (PhD candidate) received a research fellowship sponsored by HGA Architects to investigate the use of energy analysis software (e.g., Autodesk Ecotect) during the schematic design phase. Payman’s study demonstrated ways that design alternatives can affect a building’s energy performance.

Receiving Recognition
The hope is that the net-zero performance and efficiency of Forward House will provide not only comfort, but also more financial security to the occupant through reduced utility bills. The chosen location is similar to many of the vacant lots in the area, so the design strategies of Forward House should be able to extend beyond the bounds of the current lot and impact an even larger community.

Community was an important part of the overall design, and the mechanical systems team—coupled with the architecture team—collaborated to maintain the craftsman feel while optimizing performance. The goal of the HVAC system is to minimize upfront equipment cost without compromising performance. To this end, the domestic hot water system and cold weather heating have been integrated into one system with easy to install ductwork. The envelope was designed to be easy to install and to minimize the effects of the harsh Wisconsin climate using high insulation values.
