THE RISING
GRAD. 2 FALL SEMESTER, PROF. BOTOND BOGNAR, PARTNER: NORA HILPERT The site of 4th St and East Peabody Dr provides an ideal location for a building which can connect the dormitories and sports facilities on the west side to the south quad on the east side. This location is used as a hub for people to meet at various times of the day while they are circulating through the UIUC campus. One can progress through the new Krannert Art Museum on the first floor which consists of an open courtyard that connects and invites people to linger. Additionally, one can walk over the building and experience the rooftop and main staircase ter-
races. They create social interaction and an opportunity to explore a fine arts museum. The form of the building provides an inviting and smooth transition from the south quad that simply gets elevated. The buildings location on the site encourages the people who actively use the walkway in the north to use the path through the museum instead. This path is also an answer to the unused walkway north of the original KAM. The carefully placed elevators and ramps make the building a great contribution to the already ADA friendly campus.

The first floor includes the main connection path to and from the quad through the open courtyard. The classrooms, auditorium and their seperate entrances are located on the south side of the building due to the proximity to the school of art and the lighting situation. The museum space starts on the north side of the first floor. The shop and first gallery drop down to the level of the courtyard underneath the main staircase. The cafe and main lobby with a five-story high atrium are also located there. A large contemporary gallery is located in the east and can be experienced from different levels. The space under the main outdoor stairs in the east serves as another connection path and a protected sculpture garden.

The third floor is the first to fully connect the two areas of the museum with each other. The greenhouse is a special point of interest. It features trees, sculptures and smaller plants. As it is enclosed, it guarantees a moderate climate throughout the whole year. During the hot summer months folding glass panels can be opened. The presentation room in the west visually impersonates the connection path on the first floor. As it drops down, it can both function as a mini-auditorium and a lookout point to the entrance area. An outdoor ramp in front of the greenhouse creates variety and fresh air.

The facade system is a combination of transparent and diffused window systems. The diffused window system allows limited natural light to enter spaces with light-sensitive objects. The transparent window system allows direct sun light to illuminate key areas of gathering and important visual connections between the inside and the outside.

The structure of “The Rising� consists of floor plates made out of poured concrete on corrigated steel panels. They are held up by 1x1 foot concrete columns. The concrete canopy on the west side of the building is hung by steel suspension rods. The exterior stairs on the east side of the building are made out of prefabricated hollow concrete blocks which are held up by concrete columns. The greenhouse is framed by structural steel mullions. Parts of the north and south elevation of the building are made out of poured concrete in order to shield private rooms and aesthetically break up the predominant glass facade.

PORTLAND COURTYARD
GRAD. 1 FALL SEMESTER, PROF. SCOTT MURRAY, PARTNER: CONNOR CHELMECKI Many cities have underutilized zones between housing and business areas, and most developers do not want to be the first ones to make a development that will attract residents in order to create a vibrant neighborhood. “Portland Courtyard” is a housing project, which provides low cost units with amenities
including roof terraces, a community courtyard, a commercial zone and a close proximity to public transportation connecting to downtown Portland. This project is designed to become the anchor building which will inspire other developers to make this zone a community based neighborhood.

Left: The building will be on the same block as the train car and bus circulation One of the things that will intice people to move to the building will be the fact that accessing different parts of the city will be very easy. Portland has many public attractions and commercial necessities along the train car route. Connection is a big factor for new tenats and our location provides it in a closer way than most other apartment complexes. Below: There is an intent to bring people to the building that don’t necessarily reside in with a commercial space on the ground froor. The goal is to create a community around this block so that the building is activated, and not only become a place to reside in, but to communicate with the people of the neighborhood.

PROGRAM DIAGRAM
The design and purpose of the Portland Courtyard will make this neighborhood an area of importance. This is helped by the current buses and traincars which stop along the building and provide public transportation to and from downtown Portland. Future development of the surrounding area is very appealing due to this building’s large occupance. Current aerial views show that the current site has an infastructure built for a very dense community, however the area starts to become dense a couple of blocks from the main streets. Portland Courtyard attempts to bring in an interest and density to this area of the community.
SITE MODEL
The ground level is easily penetrable for the average person. It has a commercial space including a grocery store for the residents of the building and people from the neighborhood. The ground level also has a private garage for the residents creating convenience and flexibility for the tenants who own a car. Many parking spots weren’t provided, because the building is adjacent to a street car and bus stop, so public transportation is highly encouraged and proves to be a cheaper alternative.
1ST FLOOR PLAN AND PROGRAM LAYOUT
The unit layout has an outer and an inner perimeter. The hallway has two cores with two elevators in the north-east and north-west portions of the building. There are also egress stairs on the west and east side providing every resident a safe exit in case of an emergency. The inner units have terraces looking out onto the public courtyard. The outer units have views of the Portland neighborhood looking out to the west, north and east.

UNIT TYPES
3D REPRESENTATION OF UNITS
Above: The form of the building shaped by the different unit types is meant to allow natural light to not only illuminate the inner units, but to also iluminate the public courtyard in the middle for a friendly and inviting atmosphere for the public. The terraces in the inner units are intended for greenspace so the accessability to sunlight is also very important. The form of the building is also intended to look grand and important without looking intimidating and unaccessible,.
Above: It was very important for this affordable living housing project to have a variety of units. The outer one (purple) is the most unique because it consists of a transformable shelving system which can change a room into different programs. Two of these units share a kitchen in between each other in order to create a communal environment and to save area for other units. The bottom inner units (yellow) consist of two floors and are meant to be for families.
The green shades are each divided into a top portion which acts as a trasfomable device used to block sunlight and provide privacy while the bottom is used as a juliet balcony for safety. Together both of the parts become a tool to create an interactive facade for both the occupants and the public to enjoy.

APPLE INC. WAREHOUSE
UG 3 FALL SEMESTER, PROF. DAN WHEELER, PARTNER: MIGUEL MACIAS “The Apple Warehouse” is an excercise in producing detailed technical drawings of a storage facility with specific requirements. The project was constrained to a specific area, the use of steel beams, the implementation of a terra cotta ceiling, and the inclusion of a mezzanine. The façade is made of a glass curtain surrounded by con-
crete plates. The interior was designed so that the storage has an open space while the offices, bathrooms, stairs, and mechanical room are placed against the north side of the building. The warehouse is an example of a functional space with a sleek design and a convenient circulation.
M P A The overall form of the buidling is a rectangle so that it can be applied to most urban sites. Most of the detailed facade design was focused on the east and west (front and back) sides since the north and south sides will most likely have neighboring buildings up close.

A perspective view of the interior shows the open plan that this storage facility needs in order to provide an efficient way of storing its apple products. These products can be seen on a much wider scalse from the mezzanine level, which is also where the offices are located.
SECTIONAL PERSPECTIVE VIEW
The first floor plan shows the relationship of the inside versus the outside. The rear has two entrances, one for the employees and one for the shipment. The rooms on the north side are the bathrooms, mechanical room, and meeting room. The north-east side has a staircase which takes employees up to the mezzanine level.

One of the major design elements of the Apple warehouse is the addition of terra cotta ceilings. Although this is not the most conventional design choice, we believe that this warehouse will have resale value not only for future warehouses, but different kinds of commerial programsas as well. Under each one of the four vaults in the tera cotta ceiling, there is a series of secondary duct branches which conveniently use the open space for a funcional purpose. Flourescent lights are installed on top of the ducts in order to illuminate the vaults which will ultimately light up the entire warehouse.
