Analysis of the Lovell Beach House
This assignment is a case study of Rudolf M. Schindler’s Lovell Beach house. This is the initial assignment given in Studio one. The intent of the project was to create to scale architectural drawings of the precedent . Examine drawing principles and standards
and
to understand orthographic drawing and line weight. The study examines different formal characteristics and breaks them down in axonmetric diagrams.
Ideas such as structure, skin, circulation, pri-
vate space, and public space are all explored in these diagrams.

Film Studio
This project is a film studio, design through a process facilitated by the studio instructor. The process started with the analysis of a 15 second film clip. From the analysis of movement in the clip, diagrams were created using a grid and canson paper. These diagrams were refined several times and then transposed into 3 dimensional study models. When a final model was reached a program was then given and the model was redesigned to accommodate the program. The end result is a film studio designed for a conceptual site. This project was very process driven , and focused on formal communications such as solid, void, precincts, zone, regulation, repetition and many others.

Residence
This assignment a program was given along with a site and students were asked to design a residence..
The site is narrow and
long providing some design challenges, The residence is designed in a U shape providing a courtyard space for interaction with the outdoors. Transparency between indoor and out door spaces is provided by a glazed circulation corridor. Also complex spacial relationships are created by hanging a sleeping space over the living area.

Tractor Poster Competition
Posters designed for Antique Tractor and Engine Show in Lubbock , TX. This project was used as a warm up project that related to the final project for studio three, a new American Museum of Agriculture. Each poster focused in a different concept text based , image based, and text image balance. The posters allowed the studio to meet our client and learn about a major event that would take place at our projects future location,

Implement Documentation During studio three each student was given a farm implement to study, document, draw, and analyze. This is the documentation of the 1914 Moline Universal Tractor, During the analysis a to scale drawing was produced as well as some interesting conceptual concepts, During this time men creating tractors still thought of the machines as horses, Attaching implements to the rear of them and farming just as the always had. The concept of adjustment through movement came out of this analysis and was carried on into the design of the Agriculture Museum.

Agriculture Museum
The American Museum of Agriculture was designed using a program provided by the curators of the existing museum with a few adjustment for new exhibits.
The building was design first using
study models then, moving in to section. The final design’s structure is a repetitive bay using a series of steel trusses supported by steel columns.
The concept if movement developed in the previ-
ous analysis manifests itself in the new design as a retractable roof and wall system that expands exhibition space for traveling exhibits,

Integral Interaction and New Architecture Building
The following project was designed in Graduate studio One in which the studio competed as individual student in a steel competition.
The assignment was a new architecture building.
The con-
cept of integral interaction pertaining to the architecture building states that action, effect and influence if the design in the user (student), the context (campus), and the environment (site) must be successfully integrated into the building in order to make the design beneficially interactive for students, faculty, and the environment.

Analysis of Lubbock
In the first phase of the analysis of analyzing Lubbock the realization was quickly uncovered that Lubbock, unlike the European city, is not a figure ground dominated by architectural edges in the traditional sense. Lubbock is not made of building forms that create paths through the city. Lubbock is created by the roadway, dominated by the grid. The following model is a commentary on this observation. It shows disconnects, deformations, and connections that comprise one square mile of Lubbock, Texas. Using historical Sanborn maps and other reference material, figure grounds and vector drawings were created mapping the change in Lubbock over time. Maps of 1909, 1920, 1930, 1950, 1970, 1990, 2009 were all created to analyze one square mile of the city.

Title of Studio Project
The South Plains Fairground is an interesting urban environment that provides a center of interaction for people of various backgrounds, cultures, and socioeconomic classes. The goal of this studio was to provide a new fairground for the city of Lubbock that is relevant and useful to what is Lubbock, a cotton/college town. The fairgrounds itself is only active one week out of the entire year. This project focuses on the programmatic issue of the site namely the cross-programming of the site so that is can be used year round. (Below) Surface models mapping the breaks and barriers in the existing fairgrounds.
56
Final Bay Model (Above) Line drawing analysis combined with collage from existing fairgrounds was created to represent a final
model of a new fairground that would inform both the organization of the site as well as its formal character.

Final Bay Model The final drawing of the fairgrounds proposed a cross-programming of a cotton facility, fair, and wind farm. The fair is active only one week out of the year. Cotton is processed and stored on the site. The wind farm derived from the point grid provides power for the cotton facility.

Final Bay Model By cross-programming the cotton facility and the fairgrounds, the site can use movable mounds of cotton to create different configurations of the fair. A model was constructed to demonstrate how gantry cranes could move cotton around the site to create different configurations.

Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument
The Florissant Fossil Beds Interpretive Research Center is my Master Design Studio Final Project. The project site is located 35 miles west of Colorado Spring at the National Monument. The site originally was programed for and interpretive center to display the fossils on site but because of active research on the site the program of the project was adapted to include an Interpretive center cross programed with an active research facility. The public interpretive program is formally expressed as a ribbon of concrete with grass occupiable roofs representing the earth being lifted to uncover the unknown meanings of the site. The Paleontological research program is expressed as a tectonic steel structure raised above the site and searching for its meanings. An Interpretive spine joins the programs and existing trails taking the users on a journey through the park where at times they descend into the earth at others rise above it and finish there journey looking
62
down into the research area
at the work that goes on in the Park.

This set of renderings was created for an international Design Competition. Building was modeled from sketches and study models, then rendered and collaged into its appropriate environment. Siteplan, Elevations, Sectional perspectives, Perspectives and Diagrams were derived from the model. Images were then composed into boards to present to the client.
Anderson Mason Dale won the Competition and was Awarded the Project.
