NORTHSIDE FARMERS’ MARKET DESIGN Northside, Ohio is a tight-knit community defined by the concept of living locally. Composed of a diverse group of individuals, there exist many entrepreneurs and small businesses within the community. All of which work collectively to promote one another through the sales of products created by others. The project was divided into two phases. The first consists of a temporary market and community park to be located on a gravel parking lot. The second phase includes the implementation of new storefronts, a grocery store, and an indoor farmers’ market facitilty on an adjacent site.

Northside Market
The Farmers’ Market complex would serve as an outlet for the local farmers and craft makers to display and sell produce and products. An established site, dedicated to a temporary market, would benefit all existing entrepreneurs and allow for increased business for many individuals. The proposed site for Phase I is located along an old train route, and connects to the site for Phase II.

TEMPORARY MARKET STAND
The market stands for Phase 1 of the project are comprised of a lightweight temporary structure. The stands are designed to be removed when the market is not in session in order for the site to be used as a park during the majority of the week.

Within Northside, the art scene is quite diverse and extensive. Fine artists offer classes and sell pieces of work from within residences, restaurants, and coffee shops. Hand-made jewelry and crafts are available in different locations. Many fashion designers also live in the neighborhood. Spaces for small business owners to lease at low rates were alloted in back portion of the new buildings depicted below. These spaces would allow existing entreprenuers to sell products in small storefronts during the market days.

Interior Urban Inlet Perspective
PRION TOWER Nature sets impeccable precedent for spatial structure and progressive design in the wake of new digital modeling technologies. From the precedents provided by the natural world, the Prion Tower rose out of the likeness of the single-celled bacteria. The exterior skin winds around the length of the interior core; the structural limbs simultaneously reflect both the organic and highly organized qualities of nature. The materiality and general appearance of the Prion Tower draws from crystalline structures. Tessellated steel supports color-changing glass that fluctuates in appearance over the duration of the day, resulting in a semi-iridescent and unique tower.
Prion Tower
Atrium Entryway
The core structural columns that connect to the ground act as the pr circulatory veins, containing both public and secondary means of vert In between the columns the skin is lifted up above the street level to accentuate the primary entrances into the core atrium, giving the illus base akin to the roots of a tree.

WINERY - VINERYARD - PARK The scope of this project included the redevelopment of an abandoned golf course located in Amberley Village outside of Cincinnati, OH. The site was designed to serve a winery, expansive vineyard, and public park. Variations of the ways in which individuals experience space were explored and incorporated into multiple aspects of the final design.

WINERY, VINEYARD, PARK The site is located in a small neighborhood outside of Cincinnati. While the program incorporates space for a vineyard and winery, the site will also function as park with forested and open space.
ESTABLISH AXES Three main axes were defined based on the topography of the site. Specifically, the main ridge established the east-west axis, and south-facing slopes optimum for plant growth determined the north-south axes.
DEFINE ZONES Four zones are of specific program and have distinct forms:
1. Undeveloped Irregular 2. Semi-developed Irregular 3. Semi-developed Regular 4. Developed Regular
INTERVENE WITH PROGRAM A vineyard and orchard will be placed on south-facing slopes, allowing for maximum solar capture. A water treatment facility will collect rainwater and treat it to tertiary standards. The winery will be located to the north, and step down with the slope of the terrain.
DIRECT MOVEMENT Paths, primarily used for foot-traffic, will be located along the axes. Organic paths will allow for meandering, while the primary pathways will direct movement in order that individuals experience the site in distinct ways.
CREATE ENCLOSURE New trees will be added along the north and east borders of the site for privacy. Small clusters of trees create enclosures for gathering. Minimal existing trees will be removed to allow for a vineyard and orchard.

The main building on the site serves as a winery. Each step of the wine-making process takes place in a separate space. These spaces are intended to be distinct from one another on the exterior as well as within the interior. The majority of the production process occurs on the lower level. Comprised of a series of bridges, ramps, and walkways, the second level is intended for visitor observation. Individuals would be able to view the wine-making process as it took place below.
COURTYARD DESIGN
The proposed courtyard design consists of multiple concrete platforms designed for discussion, private study, ciruclation, and a connection to nature. Vegetation and plantings would allow people to enjoy a natural environment. Stark contrast between organic, curvilinear form and sharp, angular form was established in the final design of the courtyard.

01 FRANKLINTON CYCLE WORKS Franklinton Cycle Works is a not-for-profit bike co-op. The existing facilities are located in a decrepit building. A wall, measuring approximately 120 feet, was in great need of painting. An abstract mural of a bike motif was designed and proposed to the co-op owners. Approval from the Franklinton Development Association was granted in June. The mural is scheduled to be started in early Spring of 2012. Franklinton Cycle Works Proposed Mural
