The competition called for a theater to be developed for student use. This theater reforms traditional teaching theaters because it is situated on a satellite campus and will provide a place for students to live in the building, work and study for school, and preform within one building. The site is located in Downtown Greenville in South Carolina. The building also hosts additional residential units and retail space.

The theater is sited on a dynamic corner condition along Main Street and becomes a focal point on Main Street. It extrudes from a glass box and responds to an axis formulated from the surrounding site to segment its function as a school, dormitory, retail, residential units, and a theater. The exaggerated structure axis also separates public and private functions of the building.

Access to the site in Greenville is from I-85 (upper corner) and HWY 123 (lower corner.) Because the theater will be accessed by students coming from other schools this is an important component. Greenville as a location for this theater is also central to schools that could potentially be involved in addition to Clemson theater students.

Design the replacement school for Buist Academy, an academic magnet K-8 school. The current school is slated for replacement because the unreinforced masonry structure poses a threat in the high risk seismic area of Charleston, South Carolina. Other key issues are the FEMA flood zone requirements that require the building be five and a half feet above ground level while complying with building codes for a school with small children.

The inspiration for the redesign began with a series of case studies. The most influential examples were schools that had flexible learning areas and adaptable hallways to promote intermingling between all year levels. The design for Buist Academy creates open hallways and spaces for students to interact and display their work in. The circulation extrudes from the shell of the building so that its presence is exclaimed.

We tracked how the movement through the site changes by which parts of the market were open or closed. The block is different from all other surrounding blocks in the eixample district with a diagonal pathway. This fostered pedestrian movement, something desirable for the program in the two blocks assigned to redesign.

The word “Barbecue” has several roots. In Western Indian it means “the method by which one slow cooks meat over hot coals.” In the Guyna tribe it is defined as “cheerfully spit roasting captured enemies.” The French translates “from head to toe.” What does Barbecue stand for in South Carolina? Barbecue is a deep rooted southern tradition that has become a ritual in different areas, given people a sense of community, and of course has become a tradition for many families. Picked and Pulled BBQ, sited between Exxon and Bloom grocery in Seneca, South Carolina is a prime site for this retro throwback to a great historic dining method. The restaurant will bring diners back to the roadside culture of BBQ and provide a place to sit back, eat up, and enjoy.

REDISCOVERING GOWANUS
Summer 2010‌I D. Lee‌I Satellite Campus: Manhattan, New York]] 4 Weeks Research | 1 Week Design
The Gowanus Canal in Brooklyn, New York has been in a state of contamination and decay and recently declared a superfund site by the EPA. This two part project began with a group of seventeen students developing a rezoning proposal for the area. The second part of the project was an independent assignment to design a community park, provide new office space for the GCCDC, create a science education center for students, and a museum. This project was completed in collaboration with the client GCCDC, Gowanus Canal Community Development Corporation.
For many years, the Gowanus canal gave access to the busy manufacturing and industrial district of Gowanus. With the decrease of maritime shipping in the 1960’s the Gowanus transitioned into a period of decline. Industries began moving out of the Gowanus, while industrial waste continued to collect in the canal.
However, manufacturing, zoning, brown fields, a toxic canal, and general pollution create obstacles for change. In order to alleviate these problems, other incentives will be created to turn the Gowanus region into a model of good sustainable practice measures and prevent further pollution.
__ The Gowanus Canal was constructed

20% = +33%
(LR/JL)
EFFORTS
• FAR benefit of 33% if 20% building is inclusionary housing and/or co-working space. • Tax benefits • Integrated housing for all income levels creates overall safer areas.
• FAR benefit of 33% if 20% building is inclusionary housing and/or co-working space. • Creates a more affordable setting to run and maintain a business. • Opportunities to network with like-minded professionals.
• Rehabilitating buildings recycles energy and materials that went into building the structures in the first place. • Rehabilitation of a historic building qualifies for a tax credit equal to 20% of the rehabilitation costs.
• Eliminates vacant lots and abandoned buildings, which may be places for crime /public health hazards. • Developers will receive expedited access to zoning permits and EPA credit for infill development.
• Land is offered at a lower price to offset the costs of cleaning up the toxic pollution. EPA will also offer tax credits to offset the cost of cleanup.
• Provide numerous ecological, financial & social benefits. • LEED credits. $4.25 per square foot if roof is 50% green. • Tax and building benefits
• A mixed use zone with commercial and office space on the street level and residential above fosters movement and interaction as possible between pedestrians.
• A good public space will spur development along its borders. • Public space developed will be income tax free.

In 2005, New York City integrates incentives for incorporating affordable housing within redeveloping neighborhoods for developers. This activates the strength of the city’s housing market to create a mix of units for low- and moderate-income families alongside market-rate apartments.
REDISCOVERING GOWANUS
Recently developers have begun showing an interest in the Gowanus neighborhood, and a concerted effort is being made to clean up and re-purpose the area. In March 2010, the EPA designated Gowanus Canal a Superfund site which has put a hold on construction, but given architects and developers more time to produce new methods for revitalizing the disintegrating condition of the canal.
To keep middle class families working in NYC and allow the city’s economy to grow, Mayor Bloomberg expanded the affordable housing plan to build or rehabilitate 165,000 units by 2013.

TIMELINE/HISTORY
The master plan would provide the developers with incentives for building, but incentives do not have to be met if developers do not want to reap the benefits. A set of rules also had to
maintain the character
of the Gowanus canal for the community pertaining to building height, setbacks, and a public access boardwalk along the canal.

The maximum building height canvas created a neighborhood texture that responds to the context of the Gowanus Canal by incorporating surrounding neighborhoods as reference points. Buildings can be taller in areas with a lower topography, specifically within the center of the canal “valley,” and on sites surrounded by tall buildings. This maintains the skyline while allowing economic growth and development.

Clemson University has a strong focus on learning through a “Fluid Campus.” Clemson explains this teaching method, “our fluid campus centers each enrich their respective pedagogical specialties while maintaining a global perspective of territory and society, and providing a better understanding of cultures and practices outside the U.S.” I studied in three satellite locations, Barcelona, Spain, Charleston, South Carolina, and Manhattan, New York.

Mapping Studies/Graphic Experimentation
Architecture is not meant to be learned from books and pictures. The way to understand architecture is to inhabit the space in which it resides. I spent four months living in the heart of the old city of Barcelona, Spain and was able to see an inspiring mixture of an ancient city and cutting edge modern architecture being erected. While abroad I had the privilege to travel through most of Europe and see my textbooks come to life, from seeing Michelangelo’s drawings in Rome, to touring Renzo Piano’s studio in Paris, my eyes were opened to the world of great architecture. These photographs represent the architecture that defined each city for me.
