CHARLEMAGNE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL GREEN RETROFIT Children in today’s world need a special place for learning where they can freely explore where and how they want to learn. By providing access to attached but separate multi-story features such as reading lofts and science dens, students have somewhere to go to enhance their learning experience rather than sitting in the desk with the other children all day long. A strong bridge to the outdoors is also essential, not only for daylighting and fresh air, but also for a way for children to experience the environment all around them even when the weather may preclude them from fully immersing themselves in the outdoors for play and explore time.

THE ART FACTORY
GRANVILLE ISLAND VANCOUVER, BC
Granville Island is a unique place with its own code for maintaining a certain industrial aesthetic while providing programming to support local artisans. Our site, located on the quiet end of the island, serves as a perfect location for a mixed use building. Because the Emily Carr University of Art and Design, the Granville Island Hotel, and the many artisan shops of Railspur Alley all neighbor the site, students, tourists, and artists will all inhabit this project. The ground floor will be dedicated to public shops, a large indoor art market, and a large-scale shop where artists may share tools they may otherwise not be able to afford. Above, art classes will be held in an intimate apprenticeship setting and private residences will be on the top level. N

CHAMPAIGN COMMUNITY CENTER Because of the transition from a residential area to a larger scale downtown area, this concept investigates a strong East and West axis for both circulation and visualization. Three separate box forms telescop into one another and create a view all the way through the center. Each box has a different program as the shortest may be closed off from the rest of the community center as a separate cafe and gallery space. The second box includes the classrooms and offices, and the third box contains the gymnasium. Similarly, the first box has a curtain wall enclosure, the second box is green in its walls and roof systems, and the third has a steel, open web joist frame. Each part has its own materials and identity but fit into eachother creating one community center to link the residential zone and downtown.

Energy Analysis Graphs The first graph depicts the Annual Energy Use between my building at a reference case without low-e coating on the windows and green roof solutions among others. The Second Graph shows the Average Annual Heat Flow from the various systems in the building between the HVAC return and supply as well as solar gains, internal heat gains, and other.
Climate Study
Through the climate study of the site I was able to implement a passive cooling system combining cross ventilation and stack ventilation with an active raised floor system. Wind Rose Diagrams

ALLEN HALL ENCLOSURE As the University of Oregon retrofits Allen Hall, this project investigates the brick masonry veneer wall as well as the glass facade. The brick facade responds to the ornamental character of the existing structure. The windows provide fresh air and daylight without excessive solar gain. This wall structure also has a parapet and supports a vegetated roof on this part of the building. The glass enclosure design minimizes heating and cooling loads by integrating shading devices to reduce solar heat gain and providing night ventilation to expose thermal mass to cool breezes.

GARAGE LOBBY RENOVATION
Wiss, Jann 10 S. La Ch 312.372.0
During my summer internship at Wiss, Janney, Elstner Associates, Inc., George Taylor and Nicholas Chow introduced me to the Garage Lobby Renovation project. From their design, I created a Revit Model to help the client understand how the various options for the renovation would look in 3-D. From Revit, I exported an AutoCAD sheet set to correspond to WJE standards of drawings and annotated the plans. After following red-line changes, I submitted this set for the client meeting. D

KINETIC ARCHITECTURE: HURRICANE SHUTTER
Because hurricanes are happening more frequently as time progresses, my group and I developed a hurricane shutter that is more beautiful than plywood sheets, easier to implement, and doubles as a sun shading device on beautiful days. In Solidworks, I modeled all of the parts for our assembly to make sure that our counterweights, pulleys, cranks, and gears would work. We then used Softimage to animate how someone opens the shutters. Please find the animation at: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ g3k9dj5vevn9wkl/HurricaneShutter.mov

OLD UNITARIAN CHURCH In my Recording Historic Buildings class we documented the Old Unitarian Church of Urbana. Every class, I conducted research on site by recording measurements, drawing field note sketches, and taking photographs. I would then transfer the information I gathered to AutoCAD drawings to Historic American Building Survey standards.

LOREDO TAFT HOUSE In my Anatomy of Buildings class, we studied the historic Loredo Taft House. I took measurements on site and documented the house through photographs as well. I used this research to create AutoCAD drawings and detailed hand drawings. While studying the constrcution methods of balloon framing, I drafted a detailed wall section of how the roof connects to the exterior wall. I also drew a detail showing the ornamentation of the column capitals and eave brackets on the porch. My team created a hinged model, half of which shows the balloon framing while the other half displays finished walls with siding on exterior walls.

FIELD WORK: NPS, WJE, CASL I thrive in a work envrionment that offers a variety of projects and a lot of hands-on work. I have always been involved in volunteer projects involving construction and conservation. My internships at the National Park Service and Wiss, Janney, Elstner Associates Inc. also involved many projects where I was able to get out of the office to see real projects in action and learn in the field. At the University of Oregon Center for the Advancement of Sustainable Living (CASL), I am very involved in their Passivhaus Retrofit. The existing wall enclosure has been expanded and taped to form an air barrier. I participated in a blower door test to ensure the tightness of this seal and subsequent THERM and WUFI modeling to develop eave and window sill details. We also installed ZOLA windows and developed a recipe for Earthen Plaster which uses dirt from the backyeard as interior wall finish. NPS- Punchlist Review of DC Warm Memorial Restoration
