ABSTRACT GALLERY SPACE Gathering inspiration from my immediate surroundings, I drew sketches of pipes and bricks to begin this project. I then abstracted the sketches into simple line, shape, and figure ground diagrams. A vertical and diagonal grid pattern emerged and became a complex yet organized concept for my model and drawings. top left: line diagram, ink above: shape diagram, ink left: model, photograph below: figure ground diagram

KRANNERT ADDITION The existing design of the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts was meant to include outdoor spaces as well as the interior spaces, however these areas are disconnected and do not provide a universallly accesible, enjoyable experience for all. My design incorporates the different layers through flowing water while also providing a transient space between indoors and outdoors in the previously unusable space under the stairs. This art gallery provides a resting area with art to view as well as a running waterfall to give a relaxed spa feel. Exterior Rendering, colored pencil

TEMPLE BUELL HALL ADDITION I conducted a facade study by arranging photographs of an existing campus building into montage conceptual diagrams and drawing the resulting designs. I studied the media wall on the South facade in order to understand its construction. The final design added a media wall to the North facade as found in the South facade and was curved to balance features on the West facade. I included a patio space next to the entrance for people to enjoy their lunch outside on a nice day. The media wall creates a sun canopy over the patio and the metalic material similar to the existing media wall reflects the natural light back into the windows which often don’t see much light. Visitors would surely enjoy this sculptural yet functional addition which accentuates the North entrance. Northwest Entrance, photograph

OLD UNITARIAN CHURCH OF URBANA 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. Through studying the constrcution methods of balloon framing I also drew a detailed wall section of how the roof connects to the exterior wall. We also created a hinged model, half of which shows the balloon framing while the other half displays finished walls with siding on exterior walls.

MIXED USE INFILL Downtown Champaign is not very lively, and people often wonder where all the action is. In a city, there are always people who are busy and actions are taking place, but these motions are not necessarily physcial. Humans have created technologies such as cars for convenience, but unfortunately these technologies are greatly decreasing physical human movement. By offering dance studios and performance theaters, people can watch and be observed while they move. People can be inspired when they notice how much others are enjoying dance and movement and feeling alive, and they too will experience the livelihood and take it out into the rest of downtown Champaign.

This building offers twenty-two apartments sure to interest young adults and many others. The apartments are located on the second, third, and fourth floors. Storage, bike parking, a mail room, and a security center are offered on the first floor. Several different arrangements are offered throughout the building.

Dance Studios on Half Levels Movement is inspiring throughout the building. By making half levels for the elevation changes in the dance academy it is also encouraging active excersise by taking it slow. Exercise, especially dance can seem embarrassing and awkward by jumping right into a challenging level, but not in this case.

Studio 1.5: A large space which can be divided by a partition wall for small childhood dance classes or aerobics classes. It can also be opened up to account for larger social dances. Studio 2.0: A medium dance studio which is meant for intermediate dance classes such as couples swing or ballroom dancing. Studio 2.5: A small scale dance studio for challenging ballet classes.

Nana Wall in Plan

Physical Movement of Wall

Nana Wall Systems Inc. creates movable walls that are essentially curtain walls that can be folded or slid across the facade of a building and stored away. The panels of the wall will be tucked away while open leaving the dancers plenty of room on the stage while their winter dance studio becomes a backstage.

Outdoor Blackbox Theater

The sunken courtyards offer green space for workers to sit and have lunch, families to have picnics, and most importantly to enjoy performances the dance academy has developed. The Nana Wall Systems can open and allow dancers to come forth to use the outdoor stages, and the community can come together to gather and watch the hard work of all the dancers who have been studying at the academy.

Chicago Theater Where currently there is a park bounded by Lake Michigan and the Contemporary Museum of Art to the East and West and Pearson St. and Chicago Ave. to the North and South, I proposed a amphitheater type auditorium. The design is meant to bring the various workers and residents as well as tourists together to enjoy performances. The idea draws from the grand Roman amphitheaters and likewise the piazza in front of the entrance is like the piazzas found all over cities in Italy. The site needs to create a sense of community, and this design can help that. The circulation spirals all the way around the central theater space mixing the different types of visitors together. There is a cafe with beautiful views of the lake above the East entrance to the theater. This theather can also be opened up to create one large inthe-round theater or divided with a sound-proof partition wall to have two contemporary theaters.

CHAMPAIGN COMMUNITY CENTER For the capstone studio project, we were given a set program to include in our Community Center located at the site of a current parking lot at the corner of Clark and State Streets. My design concept built off the transition from a residential area to a larger scale downtown area and how people seemed to move across the site primarily in the East and West directions. The idea was to have three seemingly separate boxes telescoping into one another and creating a view all the way through the center. Each box had a different program as the shortest could be closed off from the rest of the community center as a separate cafe and gallery space. The second box included the classrooms and offices, and the third box was the gymnasium. Similarly, the first box had a frame of curtain wall structure, the second box wasl green in its walls and roof systems, and the thrid had a metal open web joist frame. Each part had its own materials and structure but fit into eachother creating one community center to link the residential and downtown.

Climate Study

Through the climate study of the site I was able to determine a solution for allowing heat to enter and reflect off surfaces in winter but not summer. I was also able to implement a passive cooling system combining cross ventilation and stack ventilation with an active raised floor system.
