“Only one life, ’twill soon be past, Only what’s done for Christ will last. And when I am dying, how happy I’ll be, If the lamp of my life has been burned out for Thee.” C.T. STUDD
Ever since I can remember, I’ve loved drawing, learning, and exploring. By the time I was in seventh grade, I knew I wanted to be an architect because I was passionate about both logic and creativity. Since coming to KU to study architectue, I’ve become more dedicated to the profession as means to bring restoration to the world and to people. I aspire to be a life-long learner and advocate, rooted in my core values, so that I can best serve those around me.

VIEW FROM ACROSS 18TH STREET
COMMON PLACE MIXED-USE RESIDENTIAL 153,000 GSF 1480 E. 18TH ST. KANSAS CITY, MO EDDY TAVIO | FALL 2021 SUMMARY East 18th Street on the Missouri side of Kansas City is relatively undiscovered. However, that certainly does not imply a lack of potential. As a city development exercise, the studio examined 18th Street on a masterplan scale. Then, the group established goals: design a refined but exciting pedestrian experience, increase residential density, and accommodate amenity needs for the existing and proposed communities. Within those goals, Common Place adds an inclusive and interactive component to the 18th Street corridor as a piece of a larger masterplan vision. KEY LEARNING OUTCOME It is vital to consider multiple scales of impact of a project, from the size of a closet to the economic implications on a city. This type of thinking helps ensure integrity and secure the purspose of a design.

SITE A parking lot at the east end of 18th Street is the site of Common Place. Just one block away from the start of the historic 18th & Vine Jazz District, and a few blocks from Crossroad’s Arts District, the lot is situated in a context rich with inspiration. After conducting thorough research on every building and lot along 18th Street, the studio determined which lots could serve as sites for further development. The studio developed 10 mixed-use residential projects, all accommodating different amenity needs such: gyms, markets, event venues, restaurants, bars, and workspaces. The developments added nearly 1100 dwelling units.

SITE BENEFITS • Rich history and culture • Space for future development • Existing community events SITE CHALLENGES • Disconnect between districts • Lack of green spaces • Unfriendly pedestrian conditions GUIDING QUESTIONS • What is missing? • How can a high unit count be reached without creating an impeding mass? • Who will live here?

RECOGNIZE UNIQUE IDENTITIES
Two towers represent 18th & Vine Jazz District (east) and Crossroads Arts District (west).
TWO BUT ONE As I stood on the proposed project site on an August evening, I was struck by the music coming from the Jazz District to the east and the lights of the Crossroads District in the west. The sounds and lights represented the unique identities of each of these districts. Although one of the goals of the studio’s mixed-use residential development was to unify the 18th Street, it seemed necessary to recognize the current disconnect between the corridor’s endpoints. To that end, two towers, sisters in form but different in mixed-use program, became the anchoring concept of this project.
INDEPENDENTLY JOIN IDENTITIES
Bringing the towers together fulfills the studio’s goal to create unity along 18th Street, but keeping two buildings resists the impulse to bulldoze existing conditions to serve a “greater” purpose.
CONNECT PEDESTRIANS
The gap between the towers becomes a secondary corridor to engage pedestrian activity (see exterior renderings). Program on the ground levels is accessible for all community members, regardless of age, mobility, or social status.
CONNECT RESIDENTS
A bridge between the towers creates a common place for residents with rooftop activities (see elevation).
VISUALLY CONNECT TO CITY
Centralized circulation cores are the most efficient strategy for maximizing unit counts and minimizing material used in vertical construction. This choice also provides full views around the perimenters of the towers (see plans).

A great deal of study went into developing the program for Common Place. I began by visiting several apartment complexes in the region to observe their layouts and amenities. I also researched amenities that apartment renters expect. Aside from precedent study, the program was also derived from imagining what would be most useful to this community.

There are two mixed-use program elements that are intended to give people a common place to gather. In the east tower, two stories of sober bars offer a familyfriendly place to get a milkshake, soda, bubble tea, and the like. Many bars exist near 18th Street, but there are no spaces designed with family recreation in mind.

After grabbing a round of coffees with friends or coworkers, one could cross the outdoor seating area to the coworking space in the west tower. Inspired by the lack of togetherness in workplaces during the pandemic, anyone can come to meet with clients, virtual conference with companies, or set up brainstorming sessions. Both the mixed-use programming and the units above establish togetherness, therefore grounding the name Common Place.

INCLUSIVITY The sober bars, located on the bottom two levels of the east tower, foster an inclusive environment that is sensitive to the social context of the project. There are many bars surrounding the 18th St. Corridor, but there are no family-friendly places to go for a drink. At Common Place, anyone can come grab a smoothie, buble tea, latte, milkshake, or special soda.

VIEW FROM 18TH STREET
BACK WHERE IT STARTED The inspiration for Common Place began standing on a parking lot, the August sun setting over an arts festival in the Crossroads District. Developing the 18th Street corridor necessitates imagining how new construction would interact with existing culture. This concluding view displays the visual and social playfulness of Common Place, inspired by the lights and music, designed for the future of the community.

SITE The project was slated to be built on one plot divided into two lots separated by a retaining wall that reached 20 feet at its highest. However, the western lot is owned by the Kauffman and was to remain undeveloped. Therefore, the eastern half of the block, which was also the lower elevation, became the footprint project boundary. SITE BENEFITS • Several inherent points for Living Building Challenge, especially under the Site petal SITE CHALLENGES • Steep elevation change • Relatively extreme climate • North-south orientation (east-west more ideal)
24
GUIDING QUESTIONS • How does this impact our design goals? • How does this dictate what can / cannot be included? • How will this site be used in the “off-season”? • How can we remain loyal to the naturally occurring ecology of the site? • How can we work with natural conditions to optimize and maintain occupant comfort? • • How does this provide learning opportunities • and / or challenges on the site?

FROM SOMETHING TO NOTHING TO SOMETHING Many years ago, this site would have been tallgrass prairie. “Amber waves of grain” would have rustled in the Kansas wind, rolling out into the vast unknown. Today, it’s an urban brownfield. With both the ecological history of the site and the programmatic vision of a nature center, the idea came to design an organism rising up to realize its potential. It will take care and patience, but eventually a new ecosystem can be sustained--even in a city.

MATERIALS In order to be both efficient and loyal to the Materials petal of the Living Building Challenge, a variety of materials were chosen for the macro-scale structure. All of these choices are Red List friendly. The S.I.R.E. walls, which act as bearing walls, give the illustion of the earth fracturing.

MEASURE DISTILLERY DISTILLERY 60,000 GSF 1800 OAK ST. KANSAS CITY, MO TODD ACHELPOHL | SPRING 2020 SUMMARY On a hot-spot corner of 18th Street in Kansas City, MO, Measure Distillery references the Jazz District a few blocks east —experientially and architecturally. For those who come to enjoy a distilled beverage or for those who work in the production facilities, Measure Distillery is functional and poetic. LEARNING OUTCOME The narrative of a project must be the anchor for every decision. It is critical to remain focused on the intent of the concept.

SITE SITE BENEFITS • On a prominent corner • In established district • Near KC Street Car stops • Along popular pedestrian street • Within walking distance of 18th & Vine Jazz District
SITE CHALLENGES • No clear connection to Jazz District • Experientially isolated from Crossroads District • Insignificant existing corner • Little outdoor seating / dining available
OAK ST.
On the initial site visit, I drove right past the lot without realizing it. That reiterated the challenge from my professor to make this corner a significant place along the 18th Street experience. Although the building program would have to be oriented along the north-south axis, it was still important to find ways to increase solar access. Key views to the south were asking to be features of the event space of the distillery’s program. A lack of any plantings made the site feel cold and sad, so brining life back to the street was also an important goal for the distillery.
18TH ST.

GUIDING QUESTIONS • How can a distillery link districts? • To what degree should the envelope adopt characteristics of surrounding buildings? • How can solar access be maximized? • How can the street corner experience be impactful at a pedestrian scale?

SITE CHALLENGES • No clear connection to Jazz District • Experientially isolated from Crossroads District • Insignificant existing corner • Little outdoor seating / dining available
OAK ST.
On the initial site visit, I drove right past the lot without realizing it. That reiterated the challenge from my professor to make this corner a significant place along the 18th Street experience. Although the building program would have to be oriented along the north-south axis, it was still important to find ways to increase solar access. Key views to the south were asking to be features of the event space of the distillery’s program. A lack of any plantings made the site feel cold and sad, so brining life back to the street was also an important goal for the distillery.

ONE O’CLOCK JUMP
How can a distillery on the to-bedeveloped 18th Street Corridor make a connection to the isolated Jazz District? The answer to this question was directly inspired by the song “One O’Clock Jump” by Count Basie, an influential jazz artist in Kansas City. In listening to this song, the I began to see the notes in my mind as leaping vectors atop steady geometry. The form developed from there as an expressive treble clef in partnership with a lower, heavier bass clef. The building envelope system became the articulation of this expression. The melody of “One O’Clock Jump” is mapped out on the upper story, which represents the treble clef. Each mesh panel is a note’s tone and duration. The bass clef, then, is expressed as a high performance glazing unitized curtain wall system.

BASS VS. TREBLE The stills are the feature of Measure, visible from both Oak Street and 18th Street. The ground level spaces have more mellow, repetitive functions—just like a bassline in jazz music. The upper story, however, houses the event spaces, which connotate excitement like the trebel clef. 52

VISIBLE MELODY In developing the design from concept to proposal, much attention was given to IBC requirements as well as how Measure Distillery would actually function. This project was my first experience using the IBC and drawing a wall section. Both the 3D and 2D wall sections show a unitized curtain wall system hung from a steel frame. Each mesh panel along the second story skin represents one note from Count Basie’s “One O’Clock Jump.” A panel’s length and width were determined by the tone and duration of its corresponding note. Measure’s “treble” envelope is a visual melody.

ARCHITECTURE PLUS:
“MOVEMENT” | 2019 PAPIER-MÂCHÉ + BASSWOOD
This model was completed as part of a project during first year studio. It is an abstraction of motion through time. The moving subject stood on one side of a handrail, ducked underneath, and stood again on the other side. Basswood frames represent each frame of motion. The papier-mâché shell represents the continuity of the movement.

“EVEN HERE” | 2021 ACRYLIC
The fall of 2021 was one of the darkest times of my life. This painting expresses the oppressive, heavy clouds I felt trapped in for months. It also shows two figures, nearly enveloped but still there, walking together. One is me, and the other is Jesus, without whom I would not have been delivered from the darkness, and who walks with me through it all.

“HOW LONG?” | 2020 GRAPHITE + WATERCOLOR
During the heightened racial tensions of the summer of 2020, my close friend Cason led a march in our hometown. This painting imagines the suffering of millions throughout hundreds of years, leading up to the present. Will the line of those walking in sorrow continue to grow?
