Liberian Library Schematic Design Company: Pro U.S.A.

Liberia, a country along the west coast of Africa, has been through two civil wars, and in the past decade has been rebuilding. With the government still in its infantcy, Liberia needs help to educate its citizens to build the economy, resist anarchy, and overall provide a better life for its future generations. Pro USA is a non-profit organization thats headquarters are in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota, and has been leading an effort to create the first ever Library and Resource Center of Liberia, Africa. The existing library holds no more than twenty poorly conditioned books with one librarian for the entire country including the government and colleges. By obtaining books from donations and acquiring a plot of land in Monrovia, Liberia’s Capital, Pro USA’s dreams of helping Liberia was starting to come true. Pro USA’s Committee then came up with the inital picture of what they wanted the library to look like and represent. The problem was that in order to represent the project properly to have financial donations Pro USA was asked to have a schematic design, this is where I came in.

I first met with the committee to discover the intended vision for the Library and what it would include. From this program of requirements and the initial graphics, I started to formulate a design that not only fulfill their needs but truly embraced their dreams for Liberia. Through research of libraries, conference rooms and halls, and drawing many iterations, I was able to create what I called the “Ideal Library” for Pro USA. It contained: an adult and youth library sections, seven reading rooms, six bathrooms, a conference room and hall, and a computer room, all of which exceeded expectations of space for inhabitants. Not only did it include all of these given rooms, but the “Ideal Library” also contained wheelchair access to the second floor through an elaborate ramp, has the promotion of art through a gallery, and gives the conference hall a stage. The exterior is similar to the given image, yet contains the pattern of an African drum while naturally lighting the youth section in the morning and the adult section at night, as well as being careful not to interfere with the placement of the projection screens. After the establishment of the layout in AutoCAD, I then created a 3D model in Sketch-up to present to the committee, and finally a 3D tour movie of the Library in 3DS Max Design. To allow for variations in the budget, I also created a second model that was created with the bare minimum of their requirements while keeping as closely as possible to the ideal design and adequate spacing for each

Analytical Drawing Perfecting Pencil Drawing

instructors: Aaron Squadroni and Arthur Chen

Analytical drawing is the quintessence of perfecting one’s ability to represent the exact space and shape of an area or an object. This can be seen in the mechanical quality of the drawings depicted here. The projects on the left page are quite similar. They are both studies of everyday objects but with an analytical focus. Without knowing what the top object was, the class was given the task to accurately draw a plan, section, elevation, and perspective all by hand and with no eraser. The bottom drawings are both an aysometric and section drawing of a chair.

Final Analytical Study

The drawing at the top of the right page is a comparison between an inner staircase leading to a central courtyard and the passage outside in the same building. I was amazed when drawing it to see how many similarities there actually were without being able to quite understand by glancing over the space. Whereas the drawing on the bottom of the page is a technicial drawing of the Minneapolis Public Library by Ralph Rapson. I had to develop a floor plan, two elevations, a section, and a detail of the pillar by accurately measuring the physical structure. The purpose of this drawing set was to compare the similarities between this modernist building and the themes of the Classical Style.

Material Limits: Wood Modular Variability

instructors: Tom Westbrook and Colin Oglesbay

In the Material Limits: Wood Workshop, the final project was focused on using machinary and man-made lumber to create a useful product. Initially I had designed a desk that could be reoriented in any direction due to the variating connection, but this became a limited concept. Therefore my second design was fixed on creating a modular system with as many variations and uses as possible from a right angular system. Though it started as a simplier idea, many iterations were needed before completing the final project. I started with creating a pattern that allowed for enough support in 2-Dimensions but it still could become more variable and required more extensive trials to produce a 3-Dimensional iteration.

Preserving History Reuse for The Hollywood Theatre instructor: Michael Bjornberg Comparison of Past and Present Photos of Hollywood Theatre

Saving Minnesota: Ten Buildings at a Time workshop was mainly focused on one final project. The project was to design a reuse for a building that was planned to be demolished. The first step, similar to that of many design projects, was to research one of the ten buildings and identify the main characteristics and its historical significance. I chose to design a reuse for the Hollywood Theatre in Audubon Park, Minneapolis, MN. The Hollywood Theatre is historically significant to the Minneapolis Area because it was built by Liebenberg and Kaplan in 1935 along the Johnson St. Streetcar Line and known as “the Incomparable Showcase of the Northwest.� Despite its brilliant design and intricate art deco ornamentation the Hollywood Theatre fell in popularity in the 1980s due to the rise of private transportation and home theaters. Since its closing in 1987 the Hollywood Theatre has been the center of many reuse projects but none have come to fruition. My reuse plan was to expand and allow the building function throughout the day. The expansion would allow for a restaurant allowing for a dine-in theatre, a stage for performances, and create a concert hall for receptions. This would give the building new uses while keeping its significant history alive. First and Second Floor Plan of the Hollywood Theatre Expansion and Renovation

Value Drawing

Studying How Light Affects Space instructors: Aaron Squadroni and Arthur Chen

Value Drawing of Pillsbury Hall

Value Drawing of the Armory

Value drawing in essence is the study of light instead of the study of structure. This truly shows how one sees a building and feels the space rather than strictly by the outer confines of space. The first two images are an early study of two similar buildings next to Rapson Hall and how light affects different shapes and materials. While the two drawings to left are time studies of the same building one at two o’clock in the afternoon and the second at two o’clock in the morning, it also shows the stark contrast between artificial and natural light give the same shape a completely different feel.

Natural vs. Artifical Light on Rarig Theatre


These drawings are all of different focuses of space and light within the sanctuary at St. Lawrence Newman Center, Minneapolis, MN. These drawings as well as the previous and following are all done as a process of adding lead to the page in the same continuous motion and strictly shaded rather than outlined like that of contour or analytical to better represent light and its reaction to space rather than what it is confined to.

Final Piranesi Drawing

This drawing was the most difficult project of my Advanced Drawing Class but also the most rewarding. Prior to this Piranesi drawing, I had never used felt pens for a drawing before and through studying of Piranesi’s engravings I believe I have improved significantly in value shading with pens. For my final drawing, I focused on the details and incorportated aspects from other plates of Piranesi’s.

Card Cantilever

Defying Gravity One Card at a Time instructors: John Comazzi and Benjamin Ibarra-Sevilla

Card Cantilever

The restraints of this project were that a partner and I were to construct a cantilever that extended 18 inches away from the railing while holding a tennis ball and to be self supported by means of only cards. After many iterations I learned the essence of the playing card and how to best support by the natural tendency for the card to oppose gravity while in the slightly bent state. From this knowledge we were able to apply a modular system to increase in length and still have an aesthetic appeal as well as consisting of only 36 cards. The second part of the project was to produce a 5-step instruction set to construct the cantilever without words or numbers.

(K)not Architecture Redefining the Abstract

instructors: John Comazzi and Benjamin Ibarra-Sevilla

To begin this project, the first step required was to research knots and bring one to class that interested you. I chose to do a knot that I found in a picture, though there were no instruction how to tie it. I was very intrigued by it none the less. From experience as an Eagle Scout it did not take much time to figure out how to tie it, but I also needed to show step by step how to tie the knot. This was complicated because the class was constrained to only five steps, so through means of trial and error I devised a set of instructions. By testing the steps on my dorm and having fellow students try to tie the knot from the instruction, I made steps that allowed anyone to succeed. The next phase of this project was to use the knot and directions to extended the motions into a 3D wire model that fit within a 2”x 3”x 4” rectangular prism using a piano wire that was 18” long. From that wire model we had to expand the shapes into 3D models on Google Sketchup while still maintaining the initially concepts of the knot.

Chipboard Model of Volumetric Space

Flattened Layout of Chipboard Model

JONATHON WOLD PROJECT 2C - UNFOLDED MODEL TA: DANIEL GREUEL

26

The third portion of project was to flatten the final volumetric model and contain no overlapping pieces and to keep it all in one piece. Solving this was again a means of trial and error with intuition. After flattening the model the class was to construct this flattened model into a real physical model made out of chipboard. The easy way to do this was to make an animation of the folding process through Google Sketchup. Actually constructing the chipboard model was quite the undertaking because if done in the wrong order a piece could easily break. The final leg of this marathon called (K)not Architecture was the idea of using the absence of space as an inhabitable space. This can be seen in the cardboard models on the next page. This was the first time I had thought about the interior of this project and I feel that it is far more suited as a larger structure rather smaller. Overall this project covered almost every portion of the design process; concept, fabrication, refinement, constructability, and habitation.

Beauty + Sustainability Free Library Design Build Instructor: William Weber, Jr.

My Groups’ Manifesto of the Final Project is as follows:

First Initial Model

“Sustainability is that of timeless beauty, an entity in various forms that can stand the test of time and works to positively build community. It should be made in such a way that it creates no waste for the environment and in the end, uses all of its materials rather than spending the same and getting less. To help this object or structure to better stand the test of time and to be non-wasteful, it should not be over extensive. For instance, using more materials than necessary or purposely being extravagant for no real reason. We believe that beauty not only comes from the materials themselves, but also from the details and interrogations of those materials. As a team, we are going to focus on two key ecological principles of sustainability; longevity and the natural cycle. The free library must be a piece that will last throughout the changing seasons and be sturdy enough to last through the years. We anticipate repurposing items that were otherwise considered waste. By using waste, we will lengthen the life of otherwise discarded products, and utilize the embodied longevity of the materiality. We are also going to explore the topic of cycles through the library’s physical design and materials. By using materials that change through time we will be able to comment on both cycles and longevity. Of the four elemental forces, our free library emphasizes the role of water and light most noticeably. While our main focus is tuned to highlight water, we also succeed in showcasing light visuals, which work together to preach the essence of time in relation to our library. Our free library is designed to transparently showcase the sustainable practice of repurposing materials for further uses, as well as visually displaying the reaction between time and structure, to epitomize our group’s interpretation of sincere sustainability.”

The basis of this course was to fabricate archive-quality drawings, models, photos, and written histories of the industrial heritage sites of Hibbing and Virginia, Minnesota based on the standards and guidelines set forth by Historic American Building Survey (HABS) and Historic American Engineering Record (HAER), and more importantly, to document, understand, and demonstrate the importance of not just the physical structures themselves, but also their relationships with the sites and their role in interpreting and understanding the region’s past, present, and future industrial landscape. The class was restricted on both time and budget to produce these documentations as well as limited to the tools allotted at the University of Minnesota.

The site studies are both located in Northern Minnesota on what is known as the Mesabi Iron Range. The mineviews, Hull-Rust-Mahoning in Hibbing and The Mineviewin-the-Sky in Virginia, are tourist spots that overlook their respective mines. From visiting the site I came to notice exactly how important these mines are to the community and each has its own distinguished history. I was amazed at just how immense these sites were and that they were completely man-made, quite a difference from the rest of the landscape of plains. My unique approach being part of the modeling team was to use the University’s brand new technology, a CNC machine, to aid in production as well as using affordable MDF opposed to more expensive wood. The overall purpose of this project I discovered was to preserve this history because the mineviews are scheduled to be taken down within the decade making it impossible for future generations to have this same experience thus with documentation it can preserve what we have come to love about the Iron Range.
