Innovation District Housing MIXED-USE RESIDENTIAL CHATTANOOGA, TN FALL 2018
Right - The view facing east from Patten Parkway, a shopping promenade in downtown Chattanooga.

Sited between the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga and the city’s rapidly growing Innovation District, the project seeks to establish a pedestrian street across Chattanooga by extending Patten Parkway. The project provides 120 units of market-rate housing, 27,000 sq. ft. of retail space, and below-grade parking. The site rises almost 20 feet in elevation from west to east and is flanked by a parking lot and small commercial buildings on the south. The project has the potential to drive urban growth and commerce in the area.
The project is driven by three main goals: To extend the pedestrian-only Patten Parkway to the east and create a pattern of pedestrian friendly development. To provide a public space with recreation facilities as there are few public recreation areas in the city. To ensure that every unit has access to direct sunlight, year-round.
10 Innovation District Housing
From Left to Right Extending Patten Parkway to the east and connection to the Bessie Smith Cultural Center to the south. Jogging the building to create a square in the plaza. Lowering the height of the southern volume allows southern light in and gives each volume identity. Circulation spaces become amenity spaces for the residents and connect the two volumes.
Innovation District Housing 11
The units are organized around a single wet wall that contains all of the service needs of the unit. The living spaces have a strong connection to the outdoors through a generous balcony and a front porch that provides a buffer from the corridor. Each balcony receives sunlight year-round, protecting the unit from harsh summer sun and harnessing winter light.

HEIGHT DIFFERENCE lets light into lowest units in winter.
Following schematic design, we undertook a design development phase to study a wall section in depth. The facade was redesigned to provide a gabled volume on the top floor. This enhances the experience of the top floor balconies while referencing the qualities of the typical American home.

18 Timber in the City
Situated on a former industrial site along the East River in Queens, NY, the program consists of a community wellness center, early education center, and housing. Created for a mass timber design competition, the complex is constructed of cross laminated timber (CLT) panels. The education center addresses the street and neighboring residences while the wellness center faces Queensbridge Park and creates a new waterfront plaza. An accessible roofscape weaves the complex into the urban fabric of Long Island City. Collaboration with Marlyn Rivera and Kyra Stark.

Level 2
Prefabricated Utilities Core Each unit is based around a factory produced module that houses the kitchen and bathroom. Casework is installed offsite and the plumbing and electrical connections are placed so that appliances can be installed on site easily. A suspended gypsum ceiling hides the HVAC systems for each unit and the module’s CLT walls provide shear support for the housing block.
Level 1 Three Bedroom “House” These units take advantage of the top floor to create the experience of owning a home rather than an apartment.
One Bedroom Unit These constitute the basic unit of the housing block with bedrooms added to this plan to create larger units.
Panelized Facade The facade is made of prefabricated panels that allow the builder to quickly enclose the building. CLT floor plates extend past the facade to create balconies further increasing speed of construction.

The residential block builds on ideas present in the Innovation District Housing in Chattanooga. The top floor is viewed as an opportunity to create variety within the unit types. Rather than simply changing the articulation of the balcony like the previous project, a 3-bedroom “house” is created. The monopitched roofs create a sawtooth effect that mimics industrial buildings around the site and provides an iconic image for the building. Furthermore, each unit is organized around a utilities core that is repeated throughout the entire block. Studio units are the exception; they interlock to most efficiently organize plumbing.

Sited on top of a bustling subway station near midtown Atlanta, this museum extension for the Atlanta Contemporary sets a floating red cube on top of an underground kunsthall, creating a new landmark in the city. A series of bridges and stairs cross a void in the center of the project, providing ever-changing sectional relationships between below-grade, street level, and elevated space. Visitors will view the art and other people from above, beside, and below as they travel up and down the project.
