Passieo Paranoazinho Advanced Design Studio 3 Brasilia, Brazil Spring 2015 Critic: Rafael Birmann, Sunil Bald

Advanced Design Studio Between Brasilia and Sobradinho lies a 16 million square meters estate known as “Fazenda Paranoazinho”, where 30,000 middle class homesteaders – and commercial strips serving that population – have made their homes on top of irregular settlements lacking legal tenure. There are also expanses of open land filled with mango trees, two meandering rivers, and a dynamic topography. UPSA, a company founded by Rafael Birmann, is devloping this site into a city for 150 thousand inhabitants. However, Paranoazinho is not being conceived of as an isolated entity, but as a new regional urban center, a heterogeneous residential, commercial, and cultural hub between the homogenous urbanities of Brasilia and Sobradinho. In addition, Paranoazinho’s development will be transit-oriented, prioritizing pedestrian, bicycle, and public transit over the automobile. Finally, the new city will be anchored by a diversity of public spaces, the largest being a linear park that takes advantage of the river and the rich ecology it supports. Two of Paranoazinho’s public centers, a neighbourhood park and an urban plaza, will bookend a gently curving 800m artery that will be the city’s commercial and cultural hub. As planned by UPSA with Gehl Architects, this Destination Street will be humanly-scaled, pedestrian-oriented, and programatically diverse. In short, everything Brasilia’s monumental axis is not. It will also be the first part of Paranoazinho to be developed – a place to precede the city. The Destination Street will be both an anchor for Paranoazinho’s future population and an attraction for the region’s current population. Students will work with the general scale outlines of the existing master plan to produce architectural visions for what the Destination Street could be. Students will work from outside in, first to jointly propose a cohesive but unique identity of the street itself, then individually to develop the architecture. Each student will take one of the 100x100m blocks that lines the street and envison specific proposals of both form and program. Students will also consider their proposals relative to their neighbors to create a cohesive yet heterogeneous urban core.

Project Description This project aims to create a kind of micro urbanism that integrates low density and high density housing. In order address the human scale of the destination street and the required FAR, a formal strategy that creates multiple scale of housing is created to achieve the maximum flexibly and repetition. Such strategy also aims to create instant urban condition through placing small massing adjacent to very large massing, accentuating the drastic changes in height found in many cities. The housing types suited along the destination street are low density duplex, townhouse, while the large terraced towers behind the smaller housing typologies features one bedroom and two bedroom condo units. Although the change in scale between the housing types are drastic, the sense of community is achieve through applying series of shaded and unshaded outdoor. Townhouses and duplexes have series of semi-private garden and private roof garden. Condo units have communal terraces that can be connected at the higher level.

Courtyard District Studio 1061a : Post-Professional Design Studio Central Sqaure, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA Fall 2013 Team: Amir Karimpour, Kin-Tak Yu Critic: Edward Mitchell, Aniket Shahane

Post-Professional Design Studio Instead of using program as the usual design driver, students are encouraged to explore versatile massing strategies that can be applied throughout the large site in order to shape the area, regardless of the program contained within the massings. Students also need to consider the FAR 4 (the area has a FAR of 1.8) requirement to achieve higher density. Site The site is located in Central Square, Cambridge, Massachusetts. The area is centrally located in the city, being the connector between Harvard University and MIT. The area also consists of Massachusetts Avenue, which spans from Boston to the inner parts of Cambridge. It is also the major road within the site. Although the site is highly charged with both vehicular and pedestrian traffic, it does not possess its significance as a central district despite of its central and well-connected location. This gives students an opportunity to design an urban idea to shape the district that can be the most vital area to Cambridge in the future.

Site

Project Description This project attempts to extend the highly charged energy of Mass. Ave into the largely underdeveloped neighborhood. The concept employs a simple yet effective massing that consists of the bar which carves out a cavity behind the flat and continuous street front of Mass. Ave, outlining the extents of the courtyards that connect the major road to the quiet neighborhoods. Finally, a tower is placed in a key location as signifier of the courtyard neighborhood. These massings are interacts with the street axis and urban fabric, with sets of urban troupes, creating juxtaposition on each other to create visual and contextual relationship in order to constrcut and strengthen the districts own identities.

Ice-skating Hotel Vienna Advanced Design Studio 1 Vienna, Austria Spring 2014 Critic: Brigitte Shim, Andrei Harwell

Advanced Design Studio This studio explores architecture and the threshold / calculated balance between public and private space and its impact on modern life. The vehicle for this exploration will be the hotel which is a building type that uniquely combines, intertwines, embraces and engages both the public and the private realms. The hotel by its nature is a zone of transition between many extremes. The studio assumes that the urban hotel is a compelling tool for the transformation of our urban fabric. The hotel has been and remains a testing ground for social change where the conventions of gender, race, class and spatial norms can be wilfully tested, reconfigured or abandoned. In the contemporary hotel, the local resident and the global traveler collide, intersect with and overlap within the traditional hotel programme. Students are asked to consider both the local and the international as active players in the evolution of the new hotel typology. This advanced option studio invites speculation, rethinking and reinvention of role of the urban hotel in shaping the future of our cities.

Site The site is located outside of Viennaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ringstrasse. Situated between the Vienna Music Hall and the City Park, the site is charged with high amount of vehicular and pedestrian traffic. The existing hotel and ice skating rink designed in 1960s does not encourage their integration with the city as it has a completely enclosed massing. The site gives the studio an opportunity to reinvent the relationship between all the hotel/ ice-skating rink complex and the urban sur-roundings. Public

Project Description

Private

Private

Pub

Semi-Public

This project integrates an ice-skating rink to the hotel, exemplifying the speed and movement of ice-skating as the urban theme of the hotel. Unlike traditional ring shaped buildings in Vienna, the massing of the hotel complex is designed to be a ring intersected by the zig-zag ice-skating rink, introducing a semipub-lic program that meanders through the complex. The design of the massing is also site specific, framing important surroundings including the Vienna Music Hall and the City Park. In addition, the massing also allows through the block traffic from the northeast corner to the southwest corner of the block, introcuding an alternative pedestrian path to the urban fabric. The site specificity and the form of the massing propagate a more inviting and ani-mated scene to the hotel complex, accentuating the idea of a city hotel in Vienna.
