Core of Discovery District The Core of DIscovery District is a district full of attractions and serves as a major catalyst for the urban revitalization of the downtown area. A few of the major attractions of the area are the New Busch Stadium, the Citygarden, the Gateway Arch, and the Old Courthouse amongst others. This district also includes the Gateway Mall, a linear park from the Gateway Arch to Union Station.

The title Samarkand refers to the ancient city located along the Silk Road, an important trading route. The city experienced numerous conquests during its 2,500 year history, creating a culture that mixed together Iranian, European and Asian influences. The form of this sculpture resembles one of the most distinctive forms of Japanese art—a folding screen, combined with elements drawn from

Citygarden

Middle Eastern architecture.

La Riviere

Along the Gateway Mall, we find a ribbon of landscape accompanied by 7 commercial high-rise buildings in St. Louis’s Central Business District downtown. Flanking our site for the monastery are two of the most important green spaces in urban design. The newest one is a 2.9 acres public park called 8 simply Citygarden between Eighth and Tenth and Market and Chestnut streets. This particular park is part of the recent urban revitalization of downtown St. Louis and introduces to new sustainable strategies

View from corner of Market and 9th Streets looking west: This image how the park works spatially with the cafe, water fountains, and gathering spaces.

Kiernerplaza Further down the Gateway Mall we find another key green space on the east side of our site, we find the Kiener plaza located in front of the Old Courthouse. This space has an amphitheater and water features that invite passer-bys to come and interact with this dynamic space. The space provides excellent views of the Old Courthouse and the Gateway Arch while providing seating from the busy tours that are popular in the area. The park also

houses a statue by William Zorach called “the Runner” at the center of it’s pool. The plaza also acts as a safe haven for much of the homeless population in the downtown area. This situation works well for the new monastery in our design because we will be able to provide food and clothing to this transient community.

Visual Context Benedictine Monastery/Soup Kitchen South 7th Street looking North: In this image we can see the most common approach for visitor traveling by car. With this important approach, laying the site out so that it presents itself but still allows the monks to be shielded off from the distractions of city life.

North 8th Street looking South: Here, we see the more commerical side of the site with the high-rises and twolane streets. One issue is with the large black building because it will block most of the sunlight on the site and will directly affect the placement of the garden space.

709 Chestnut Street, St. Louis, MO

Designed by the renowned Louis Sullivan, the Wainwright Building was designed in 1891 as a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;modern prototype for office buildingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; (Wainwright Building). The presence of such a renowned piece of architecture only a block away from the site gives this building a clear precedent for how efficiency can be accomplished and how that efficiency can be translated into the modern language of today.

St. Louis Gateway Arch Jefferson National Expansion Memorial As the nation’s tallest monument, the Gateway Arch, designed by Eero Saarineen, symbolizes the westward expansion of the US and St. Louis’ role in that. The symbolism and the sculptural qualities of this monument

Scottrade Center 1401 Clark Avenue, St. Louis, MO The Scottrade Center as the prime location for entertainment purposes with it’s over 19,000 seats. WIth the modern design by Ellerbe Beckett of Kansas City, the arena ranks as one of the top arenas for tickets sold.

Busch Stadium

700 Clark Avenue, St. Louis, MO The presence of a professional baseball, the St. Louis Cardinals, will greatly increased visitors to the areas from the months of September til March. With the capacity for over 3500 fans, the stadium becomes a focal point of the downtown areas and will contrast greatly with the silent monks only a few blocks away. Not only does the monastery siting poses obvious issues but now thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a very profane activity going on only blocks away.

Case_STUDIES Monastery of Our Lady of Novy Dvur Czech Republic Cistercian Monastery Architect: John Pawson Location: Novy Dvur, Bohemia Construction Time: 1999-2004 Number of Monks: 35 John Pawson, the father of modern architectural minimalism, was chosen by the abbot of Our Lady of Novy Dvur to design their new monastery. The project is in a small town in the Czech Republic and involved renovated a baroque manor while also including new structures for this monk community. John approached the many challenges of the project with the idea that a monastery is essentially a series of domestic spaces with a number of specialized territories which are not part of a typical family house. This strategies can be seen throughout the complex by his raising the dormitories above the more practical spaces.

Case_STUDIES Saint John’s Abbey American Benedictine Monastery

Architect: Marcel Breuer + Pier Luigi Nervi Location: Collegeville, Minnesota Construction Time: 1953-1961 Number of Monks: 153 With the design of Saint John’s Abbey on the St. John’s University campus, Marcel Breuer brings his own principles of modern architecture and how that relates to qualities of mystery and power that have inspired Catholic architecture and liturgy for centuries. The result of this compromise is a church that looks back at the history of Benedictine architecture and attempts to translate the history for new generations of monks and laypeople. Each piece of the church is Breuer’s interpretation of well-known Catholic symbols such as the bell tower, stained glass, and the altar. WIth Breuer’s structural complexity, the church uses forms that eliminate the distinction between structure and enclosure. The folded walls acts as both the structure and the enclosure system. This execution was innovative during a time when religious architecture hadn’t been challenged to conceive of sacred space before

Monastery Floorplan: This diagram shows the separation of spaces and how Breuer re-emphasized the congregation by focusing on the centrality of the plan

St. Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s University Campus plan: This image shaws the several contributions by Marcel Breuer in the design of the campus over a few decades

58 Chapel: This image shows the interior of the monastery and reveals how Breuer uses the structure as enclosure and the entire space is free of any obstructions.

Cloister: From this view, we can gather how Breuer uses concrete to create dramatic spaces that challenge preconceptions of religious spaces at the time.

Light Streaming through Monasteryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stained glass facade: In this image, we can see how the architecture lays out the atlar space and the placement of the congregation in relation to it.

Light Streaming through Monasteryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stained glass facade: Here, the stained glass window seen in traditional Catholic churches is given a modern twist with the modularity of the honeycomb facade.
