Design for 10yr flood & Accomodate 500yr flood

Generate Value

Solutions to environmental concerns of developing urban stream ways may be revealed through urban design. “Proctor Creek Greenway” is an urban design concept generated by hydrology research of the Proctor Creek watershed. Analysis was given to Proctor Creek’s annual water flow rates, historic flood flow rates and flood plain boundaries, and its relationship to the surrounding storm water drainage system. Empirical observation of the stream also gave supporting evidence of impaired water quality, concrete channelization concerns, and severe stream bank erosion. The hydrology information was later combined with a thorough urban analysis in order to provide a development concept for the area. The resulting greenway reveals design strategies that answer vital questions for urban planning and development community such as: How to design for small or large flood events; How to design

appropriate widths for infrastructure such as bridges and culverts; and how to better improve the quality of urban stream systems to use as an amenity for land use. But foremost is improving the landscape through design that can better the surrounding communities.

Uncontrolled development has led to sprawling urban form with characteristics of strip malls, cul-de-sacs, and fringe development along Georgia’s coastline. Accompanying this phenomena is the threat of sea level rise and its effects over time. The future of historic Saint Marys is put into question - what are alternate patterns of growth that consider a rich history and dynamic landscape threatened by sea level rise?

¯ Site Location

Glenwood Park is an underused area of land located in the Grant Park intown neighborhood of Atlanta. It is a highway adjacent property that also abuts the Beltline - a continuous open public thoroughfare that links Atlanta’s many neighborhoods. The goals of the subdivision are to: 1] create and balance open space with development; 2] link the road system with surrounding context; and 3] manage stormwater.

Re-envisioning Sewoon Arcade Seoul, South Korea Project Team Members: Travis Hampton, Ashwin Kamath

Existing 1960’s Era Arcade Building

Proposed Massing along the Cheongyecheon River

The Sewoon Arcade is a 1960’s era complex that is one of a few left. The structure, urban configuration, and street arcade make it a very unique building. The proposal uses the architectural gem as a catalyst for better urban design. By cutting into the floor plates, we were able to create unique lighting conditions to rehab the building into luxury reidential units. The existing structural bays of the arcade allow for retrofitted spaces for various commercial uses. There final product is a renewed sense of pedestrian activity along the arcade.

Transparency is defined as “the degree to which something is clear or understood.” The project at 10th and Atlantic Streets is driven by the studies of transparent building systems so that site and building are situated in various degrees of transparent conditions to conceal or reveal programmatic elements while responding to the natural environment. A horizontal “bar”shaped building has been implemented to allow increased use of the southern face of the site. An investigation of current access and site circulation encourages an organization of the site and program for public, semi-public, and private use. Envelope System

The Studio 2LR office expansion is LEED® certified under the 2009 commercial interiors rating system. With approximately 3,000SF of office area, this was my first involvement in the LEED process. Specifically, I created documents to supplement the online templates to show how the space utilizes sustainable building strategies. Credit 2 illustrates the office’s connectivity to common services. This indicates the intensity of the area and earned a credit towards certification. The second document is an innovation credit that shows that the office used greater than 2.5% cradle to crade certified furniture. All four credits sought were approved and these aided in my successful completion of the LEED Green Associate Exam.

Canal Front Terrace Three Rivers Greenway, Columbia, SC Photo by: Kickstand Studio

Three Rivers Greenway

The Canal Front Terrace is an 17,0000SF addition to a Children’s Museum in Columbia, South Carolina. The finished building features a terrace overlooking the Congaree River and a unique sunshade structure that includes a LED light display feature. Below the terrace is a multimedia meeting space, public restrooms, and amenities for future restaurant space. The clients included both the City of Columbia and Edventure Children’s Musuem. The project sits along Columbia’s Three Rivers Greenway and adds to the positive develeopment along the riverfront. Challenges included several inherent zoning overlays and being located within an historic district adjacent to a bridge and canal listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Additionally, the site lay

below the FEMA flood plain and required unique structural accomodations. Working with the project architect, I helped with design solutions during the construction adminstration phase of the project, engineering coordination, code issues, and material research.
