grad 01 “ HIGHRISE TOWNHOUSE”

Critic: Carlos Arnaiz This project, across from Manhattan’s Upper East Side, in the area of Queens known as Astoria, fights a distinct line between the hard industrial and the soft residential paces of life. The site is on the waters edge, currently surrounded by heavy dilapidated industrial infrastructure and low income housing to the other - both of which are a hot commodity for land owners looking to sell to high-end real estate in the near future. Currently there is a very evident struggle brought on by the mass gentrification in the area. Unfortunately, we have grown accustomed to understanding that with a change in social status comes a change within the physical world that alters the way in which a neighborhood works - it loses the charm that blossomed from a thriving neighborhood. This housing project strives to find a balance between the industrial and the residential: it combines the phsyicality of the two worlds... this is a combination of the townhouse and the high rise, combining them through today’s self sufficienct green farming movement.

This housing project is a study of housing typology with living typology. Can the townhouse on a walkable street atmosphere be recreated in the vertical high-rise situation? By creating units above and below each other along shared pathways, residents feel as if they are truly sharing the street with their neighbors. Bike parking along the open hallways facing the water with floor to ceiling glass create the illusion of a floating city. Carts of vegetables, herbs, flowers and other greens will roll along the streets, delivering freshly grown vegetation from their shared garden (the shared facade). Every single unit shares the green facade, creating a truly shared space (even if not humanly occupiable). This shape provides all residents as both a shading device and food source.

grad 02 “ HACKNEY BREWERY�

Critic: Stephanie Beyer Just north of London, a brewery has been proposed for the city of Hackney, England. An industrial town, in the midst of a Brooklyn-like revelation, wants to celebrate its past, while acclimating towards the contemporary way of life. On a relatively small site, this glass brick wrapped brewery is forced into the vertical. Rather than simply stacking the equipment vertically, our brewery uses this opportunity to extract and separate the processes into a physical distinction of usually secluded elements. Focusing on each of the major factors responsible for the brewing process, the building distinguishes between the initial environmental factos, the physical human labor, the machinery, the creative human input, and finally the community consumption of the product. While these processes are separated in section, five vertical cores, each responsible for the movement of essential ingredients (workers, grain, water, cooling,visitors) link them back together. Partners: T.LaForge + F.Hoonsuwan

By separating the processes that go into making beer, the public begins to understand more than just the machinery. These operations are tied together by the obsurdity of the massive vertical columns, each containing a shared movement and means by each of the processes. Visitors are brought up through one of the vertical cores, and then descend along a ramp wrapping each of these cores, physically and visually connecting each of the processes. Everything that comes in is used and reused within the building, from spent grain that becomes chicken feed, to a biodigestor in the basement, the entire process becomes one.

grad 03 “ PS37: MATH | ART �

Critic: Jonas Coersmeier On a wide yet seldonly walked avenue in lower Manhattan, a specialized public school is proposed. With limited space and the inability to build below grade due to flood zones, maximizing use with shared space and classroom clusters is essential. With specialized schools comes specialized teachers, and with this almost always comes the complaint of narrow-tracked courses, repetitve surroundings and limited experiences. In order to provide students with the best of both public schools and specialized magnet schools, PS37 essentially becomes two specialized schools in one: one focusing on math, while the other focuses on art. As the school physically occupies two blocks, a public pathway is maintained through the site, dividing the school into its two specialty programs. Beneath the path and reaching the main street is the shared space: this includes the lobby, offices, gym,theater, etc. Blending these schools allows kids who are mainly there to focus on one side of the spectrum to visit, interact and learn from the other.
