By using strictly local and drought-tolerant plants, this proposal seeks to reduce water-use while still providing the greenery needed to reach Madrid’s goals of reducing the temperature, pollution, and noise in the city. These flora thrive in full sun and dry sandy soil and create an on-site ecosystem that attract local fauna to continue the cycle of growth.

This digital aspect lends itself to flexibility of program for future use. Having been re-purposed for this proposal, Superficie-al already proves itself as an adaptable resource.

CHANGING TIDES

The National Park Visitor Center, located in Charleston, SC, serves as a space for the knowledge of the Gullah Geechee Culture. Like the coastline, the culture has changed over the years. As the coastline and culture converge, a diaspora of history and cultural practices takes shape. This proposal corresponds with the pattern of the coast. A facade is hung on the building as a dock hovers above the water. Sun and water flow through the building in a series of water-walls and courtyards. Wood is used as a humble and hardy material to warm the interior.

F2016

Professor: Robert Bruhns

CARREFOUR AT CLEMSON

The Carrefour is a public farmerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s market offering a small cafe and lockers for vendors. The geometry of the site results in a piazza-like feel of relaxation. A residential apartment allows the owner to keep watch over the grounds.

CHARACTER

The rooster weather vane is an addition to the farmerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s market. The rooster is a common symbol for farming as well as the weather vane serving a practical purpose. It adds character and provides a brand for the market.

Professor: George Schafer Partner: Brayton Gregory

REFLECTION

Reflection is a library that was designed as a public community center in the heart of the city of Genoa, Italy. The site proved difficult as it was located in a valley to an underground river. The library reflected the site conditions while offering a physical space of reflection for the visitor. The community was in need of a localized space that houses the library as well as computers, maker spaces, and an auditorium. The bays of circulation in combination with the glazing results in an open building that aligns with the aqueduct-like retaining wall running alongside the library. A centralized core also supports circulation, classrooms, and wi-fi free reading spaces.

F2015

Professor: Robert Bruhns

COMMUNITY

This mixed-use apartment building in Chicago, IL, provides retail and indoor community space on the first two floors. The upper five floors support forty apartments, all with exterior living space. Four stair towers mimic the surrounding skyline of skyscrapers. The main inner courtyards and brick facades relate to the u-shaped apartment buildings; prevalent to the Chicago area. The apartments maximize outdoor space with individual balconies and shared patios to increase activity and optional socialization.

S2015

Professor: Clarissa Mendez

WOODLAND PEACE

The visitor center is a light filled space that offers small areas for exhibitions and a main gathering room for peaceful meditation in the Woodland Cemetery in Clemson. Bamboo planters embrace the exterior of the center offering a connection to the vertical pine trees surrounding the site and offering a bit of shade and privacy.

F2014

Professor: Rob Silance

BRIDGING FORM

In experimenting with volumes intersecting other volumes, different forms and spaces were created. Cubes were used as the main geometry in wire frame and solid models. After iterations, the intersecting cubes were cut and shifted to form a pedestrian and bicycle bridge connecting sides of a ravine.

F2016

Professor: Pres. Jim Barker

MOMENT IN TIME

There will be a brief time when one realizes that they are in a moment that will define the rest of their lives. The moment they realize they are in the moment is fragile and will disappear quickly. In studying the architecture of leadership, the moment within a moment may be the time in which one realizes they are going to be a leader. The pending opportunity of changing for the better. The journey of getting to this point is personal and everyone takes a different path in reaching the triangle of leadership: leaders, followers, and goals. The journey involves people, places, communities, and the surrounding environment. Not everyone will perceive such an important moment, yet time always continues on. The architecture of leadership results in a literal and built representation of the personal meaning of leadership. Architects are important contributers to any community and their leadership skills are often overshadowed.

Professor: Dan Harding Team: Linette Green, Stevie Chen, Ed Moore

PRESENT

The Architecture + CommunityBUILD program is using sim[PLY] to design and assemble a small stage for local performers. The primary performance will be performed by Cedric Liqueur for the Community Built Association. The main event will be hosted by Clemson at the Charleston Design Center. Collaboration with artist Adam Schrimmer will result in a painted mural on the attached wall panels of the stage. Both artists are using Dante as inspiration for their work. Furthermore, a chair is also being designed as a set-piece for the stage.
