ABSTRACT

BÁRA, the first urban artist colony on the United States’ West Coast, takes the traditional idea of the rural artist retreat and reevaluates how it can perform in a metropolitan setting. For the last two decades, Portland, Oregon has been a welcoming destination and home for creatives, making it an ideal location for a formal artist colony. BÁRA offers a three to twelve month artist-in-residence fellowship where artists are provided with a shared studio space and their own apartment. BÁRA’s studios cater to four main art disciplines: graphic design, painting, sculpting, and furniture design. The mixture of fields is t o encourage an interdisciplinary exchange of verbal, visual and interactive collaborations. This project primarily investigates how design can shape the relationship between artists and the city, as well as, analyzes how interior architecture influences the interactions between the artists themselves. BÁRA explores how to preserve the atmosphere of a retreat while engaging Portland’s local community. Fur thermore, this project examines how to personalize short-term stays while still accommodating for the various needs of each artist. By addressing Portland’s need for a formal artist colony, BÁRA provides the city with an environment geared toward helping artists focus, collaborate, and ultimately, make art.

“…their sole qualification being that they have done, are doing, or give promise of doing good and earnest work” - Yaddo

BRIEF INTRODUCTION In Alain de Botton’s Wall Street Journal article, Art for Life’s Sake, he states that “art enjoys such…cultural prestige that it’s easy to forget what it’s really for.” The production of art, art making and artists themselves are so widespread around us that sometimes we forget the benefits they provide. As a result, “questions like ‘What is this painting about? Or Why should this old sculpture matter to me?’” (Botton 2013) often arise in our hearts while walking through “white-walled galleries” (Botton 2013). Yet, art has always been critical to our history and culture. On a civic level, art gives communities their identities, and also provides a means to express a city’s cultural values. (National Endowment for the Arts, Jackson 2008). The mere presence of art inspires “civic renewal” and adds vitality to any public space (Jackson 2008). In Robert D. Putnam’s book, Making Democracy Work, he cites a compelling finding that there was a “strong relationship” between the connection of art and “the effectiveness of government institutions” (Seminar). This, of course, is not insinuating that the paint on a canvas is directly linked to better healthcare, but that the communities with more interactions with art actually “better achieve the government they desire” (Seminar). This energy then serves as a catalyst for “civic participation and a strong democracy” (National Assembly of State Arts Agencies). Economically, research has shown that the greater the presence of art is in a city, the more alluring that city becomes for families and businesses (Americans for the Arts). Lastly, art has proven therapeutic for individuals. Due to art’s “ability to… communicate beyond the limits of language,” it allows everyone to participate (Seminar 2000). Furthermore, art and artists help people cope with “our fear of the unknown, our longing for love, [and] our need for hope.” (Botton 2013). For both the maker and the observer, art serves as a means for invigorating the mind. Undeniably, the benefits of art are widespread and all encompassing. Thus, if art

is truly as beneficial as the research states, then, the pursuit of proliferating art and enabling artists is a worthy goal. An influential and successful means of encouraging art production can be found in artist colonies. Historically, artist colonies have been a major contributor to the art scene. Whether the art colony is located in the secluded acres of a forest or in a city – ingenuity thrives in artist collaboration. Through the marriage of physical artist-to-artist proximity and their interdisciplinary dialogue - fantastic artistic creativity occurs. Such environments have become a creative womb that has brought about the likes of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Auguste Renoir, and Claude Monet

PROPOSAL BÁRA, situated in downtown Portland, Oregon, is the first Urban Artist Colony on the United States’ West Coast. BÁRA offers artists of various disciplines to come to the Pacific Northwest to spend a three to twelve month fellowship at the art colony. Here, the artists are able to focus intensely on their work. To stimulate the artists and provide an inspiring atmosphere, BÁRA houses four different art types: Graphic Design, Painting, Sculpting and Furniture Making. The verbal, visual, and interactive contributions from diverse artists makes BÁRA a place for rich interdisciplinary dialogue and idea exchanges that are unparalleled. While artist colonies are typically located in remote naturalistic locations, BÁRA is unique in its intentional metropolitan placement. Here in Portland, visiting artists can remain isolated in the anonymity of a large city while still be surrounded by nature. Furthermore, the presence of BÁRA in downtown Portland only strengthens the region’s growing and supportive artistic community. BÁRA’s physical accessibility to Portland citizens allows it to be a catalyst in invigorating the town’s experience, participation and knowledge of art.

SITE & BUILDING SELECTION In the United States, there are several prominent of art colonies. Prestigious colonies such as MacDowell and Yaddo have also generated an impressive pedigree of artists and works such as Jacob Lawrence, Clyfford Still, and Anne Truitt. This is not surprising as the admission process is comprehensive and elite. Applicants are to send in work samples, references, and proof that they are apt in collaborative discussions and work. This careful selection of candidates ensures that artists will have rich exchanges at the colony. Of the thirty-seven notable artist colonies in the U.S., twenty-one of them are located on the East Coast, eight in the Midwest, three in the South, and only three on the West Coast – all located in California (Greer). Thus, Portland, Oregon is a promising location for the establishment of a new artist colony. Not only does Portland already have an established community appreciative of the arts, but it has also become the budding grounds for developing artists. As a result, BÁRA has chosen the Ancient Order of United Workmen Temple (AOUW) building in Downtown Portland as its home. The selection of this building was meant to present an impression of prominence but also give a sense of security to the building’s inhabitants. After the Portland Freemasons disbanded, this building was converted into an apartment complex and then altered again into various restaurant and club establishments. The unique and funky history of the AOUW is fitting for BÁRA’s own uses. The building offers protection for the artists while displaying a prominent face to the city.

S TAT E M E N T O F I N T E N T While artist colonies are typically located in remote natural landscapes, BÁRA is unique in its intentional metropolitan placement in Downtown Portland. In this increasingly global society, inspiration can come from the most

unexpected places in the most unusual ways. The city is where these occurrences frequently happen. Thus, the artists’ interactions with the city are seen as a positive force. The three main driving questions that drove the design decisions regarding BÁRA are as follows: 1) What is the relationship between the artist and the city? 2) What is the relationship between individual artists? 3) What is the relationship between the artists and their workspace? Two major elements that contribute to the success of art colonies are the artist’s isolation from outside people and distractions, as well as, the collaboration they experience with fellow colony dwellers. As a result, this was the primary driving force for the conceptual design organization, or parti for BÁRA. The parti is a sectional parti where the heart of the colony is seen on Floors 2-5. These are the floors where the artists live (Floors 2 & 3) and work (Floors 4 & 5). Thus, these floors are also where the most amount of privacy is needed. Contrastingly, the ground floor and the top floor (6th floor) are catered primarily to the Portland community. These are the public floors that draw in and educate the community on the developments of art. With the utmost care of consideration for BÁRA artists, the vertical circulation through the building is zoned and designed for their benefit. Here, the architecture partially responds to the question of the relationship between artist and the city through the egress. Artists are provided a separate entry and elevator/stair so that they are able to traverse the building without ever running into a colony outsider. On the other hand, the public showcase stair is available for the artists who choose to engage with visitors and BÁRA enthusiasts. With the physical separation of

public to private, the artists are protected from any outside distractions while still allowing visitors to engage with BÁRA. The interior architecture of BÁRA addresses my second and third design questions: the relationship between individual artists, as well as, the relationship between artists and their workspace. The design of the apartment floors and studios are to accommodate artists’ various and unique ways of working. Firstly, the studio floors follow an open plan form and are always shared by two artist disciplines. The wide floors allow for broad sight lines so that the artists can see what others are making. This enhances not only the artists’ own work but encourages collaborations to happen. Yet, for smaller gatherings or work units, each studio floor has “work pods” that allow artists to retreat to work more privately. Contrastingly, on the residential floors, artists are given much more privacy. The rooms are comfortable, spacious, and all contain a small kitchenette. Furthermore, there are five apartment layouts to accommodate a wide variety of lifestyles. However, shared amenities such as the gym and laundry are purposefully placed by the entry so that artists are sure to engage with one another. In addition, “artist salons” are located on each residential floor for the traditional evening discussions.

FINISHES + FURNITURE The overall design atmosphere at BÁRA is to inspire and frame the artists’ work. The finishes chosen for BÁRA are primarily neutral in tone with the exception of the public floors. This design decision is to establish the art made in BÁRA. The interior architecture at BÁRA takes on a peripheral role so that it can act as a frame for the art that is produced within. Nevertheless, the neutral palette takes on interesting forms in its application on the walls and ceilings to highlight the creative energy that exists in BÁRA. On the other hand, for the public first and sixth floor, pops of color

are used to engage the viewers and entice the people of Portland to come visit BÁRA. The furniture and lighting specified are especially interesting and beautiful. As any designer would undoubtedly say, well-designed, aesthetically pleasing fixtures and products often help in the creative process and help inspire artists in their own pursuits. Therefore, many notable, elite, and famous furniture pieces can be found on the BÁRA grounds.

CONCLUSION BÁRA is an urban artist colony that is designed to help artists succeed in making meaningful creations. Its mission is to foster the resident artists’ visions by providing a space and a lifestyle that will allow them to work uninhibited. Artists from different disciplines are all invited to come live in the BÁRA residencies. C.P. Snow was famously quoted that “The clashing point of two subjects, two disciplines, two cultures…ought to produce creative chances. In the history of mental activity that has been where some of the breakthrough came.” BÁRA strives to be at the epicenter of these interdisciplinary clashes. With art disciplines specifically chosen in response to the existing or growing presence in Portland, - the opportunities to crosspollinate are endless. By providing an inspiring environment that is geared toward helping artists focus, BÁRA is the breeding grounds for interdisciplinary dialogue and idea exchanges.

(The Codes Guidebook for Interiors, p128) Each run of stairs must have a landing. In addition, the codes do not usually allow a stairway to rise more than 12 feet without an intermediate platform or landing. The width of the stair determines the minimum dimensions of these required landings or platforms. Other variables must also be considered…Any required areas of refuge may also increase the size of the landing. 6. HEAD HEIGHT CLEARANCE FOR STAIRS The ceiling above a stair and it’s landing must also meet certain requirements. Both a minimum ceiling height and minimum headroom are set by the codes. As shown in the image below, the minimum ceiling height is typically 90 inches (2286 mm). It is measured vertically from the landing and the front edge of the tread of the stair to the ceiling directly above. Some projections below that height are allowed. These may include structural elements, light fixtures, exit signs, or similar ceiling-mounted items. However, a minimum headroom of 80 inches (2032 mm) is required. This height is measured in the same way. When determining stair dimensions, you should know what floor covering will ultimately be used in the construction. Some floor coverings may change the final dimension of the treads or risers and, therefore, the effectiveness of the stair. The required dimensions are based on much research and are critical for ease of use.

7. ELEVATOR TY PES: Conventional Hydraulic Passenger Elevator An in-ground jack lifts a platform that is guided by rails. The hole is usually drilled before the building is erected. Inside drilling can be arranged for special situations. Mechanically, this is the most balanced hydraulic elevator configuration since the lifting point is centered on the load of the elevator car. Holeless Hydraulic Passenger Elevator A cantilevered platform is lifted by a jack that runs between the guide rails. This configuration cannot have rear entrances.

Conventional Hydraulic Freight Elevator An in-ground hydraulic jack lifts a platform that is guided by rails. These durable units stand up well to rough loading conditions including forklifts and tow motors. Most freight elevator sizes are custom designed to suit the loads being lifted. Freight Platform Lift (FPL) (Material Lift) A more economical way to move freight (5000 mm maximum). These lifts can only penetrate one floor and may carry only one operator. The swing door systems are typically not as durable as in freight elevators.

Holeless Dual Cylinder Passenger Elevator Two cylinders situated beside the rails lift a platform guided on the rails. This configuration can have front and rear entrances. The maximum travel is 4500 mm. Oil noise is greater than an in-ground

8. ELEVATOR USE IN TIME OF EMERGENCY

Roped Hydraulic Passenger Elevator A cantilevered platform is lifted by ropes that pass over a sheave fastened to the top of a hydraulic jack. This configuration cannot have rear entrances.

9. ELEVATOR ENCLOSU RES DEPENDED ON MAJOR STRUCTU RE BEARING

Geared Traction Passenger Elevator A conventional overhead geared machine with the car attached to cables that are counter-weighted over the drive sheave. The motor size and power consumption is significantly lower than hydraulic elevators, but the elevator and building costs are higher. Enclosed Vertical Wheelchair Lifts (Accessibility Lift) A budget-priced lift that meets all applicable codes. It is available is several different cab configurations and cab colors.

ICC section 1007.2.1 Elevators are NOT used in times of an emergency.

Elevator enclosures are NOT depended upon for major structure bearing.

ACCESSIBILITY:

10. CLEAR FLOOR SPACE: The minimum unobstructed floor or ground space required to accommodate a single stationary wheelchair and its occupants. This clear floor space is the space that should be available for functional use that excludes other defined spaces. (eg. Plumbing, fixtures, anterooms, vestibules, toilet rooms, closets, lockers, wardrobes, fixed-based cabinets and wall hung counters) 11. REQUIRED CLEAR FLOOR SPACE FOR DOORS: (ADA Standards for Accessible Design) 4.13.5 Clear Width. Doorways shall have a minimum clear opening of 32 in (815 mm) with the door open 90 degrees, measured between the face of the door and the opposite stop (see Fig. 24(a), (b), (c), and (d)). 4.13.6 Maneuvering Clearances at Doors. Minimum maneuvering clearances at doors that are not automatic or power-assisted shall be as shown in Fig 25. The floor or ground area within the required clearances shall be level and clear. Exception: Entry Doors to acute care hospital bedrooms for in-patients shall be exempted from the requirement for space at the latch side of the door (see dimension X in Fig. 25) if the door is at least 44â&#x20AC;? wide.

12. PROTRUDING OBJECTS: 4.4.1* GENERAL (1) Objects projecting from walls (for example, telephones) with their leading edges between 27 in and 80 in above the finished floor shall protrude no more than 4 in into walks, halls, corridors, passageways, or aisles (see Fig. 8a).

HVAC

AP P ROAC H

The Ancient Order of United Workmen Templeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s heavy masonry walls allowed for spaces to have a similar thickness. As a result, the HVAC system in BĂ RA is varied.

Ducts are exposed in the industrial studios - such as the Wood Shop and the Sculpture Studio. On the Ground Floor, the ducts are exposed but brightly painted in the Artist Boutique. This is to add a sense of playfulness to the public space, but also to differentiate it from the restaurant.

For the artist apartment rooms, all personal rooms will have a gypsum board dropped ceiling. This is so their apartment rooms will look finished and separate from their work spaces.

HVAC will be stored in both the basement and the roof. This is so the HVAC can function more efficiently and offer better ventilation to the artists and visitors.

Due to the small floor plate and existing lightwell, there is an abundance of light within the building. The majority of the windows are operable to increase breathability and ventilation in the building.

SOPHIA CHANG is an emerging New York graphic designer who has partnered with the likes of Puma, Nike, Wieden + Kennedy, and even the NBA. Here, she spends a few moments talking about her life as a freelance designer. Miranda Lee: Tell me a little about yourself. Sophia Chang: Umm...I’m actually a native New Yorker, I take a lot of pride in that. I’m born and raised in Queens - I’m still living there now. I’m a full time freelancer. I focus specifically on illustration and design. Different aspects of design, from web, graphic design, print, clothing, and anything - you name it. Except for lighting and interiors. That’s a whole new playing field. That’s kind of me in a nutshell. ML: How did you get started with the arts? SC: I’ve actually been involved with the arts my whole life. I was a “doodler.” I would draw everything. I didn’t get serious about art until I started school at Parsons. ML: Describe your average workday. SC: I start work around 11am, checking my emails, figuring out what’s in store. I usually work at home, run errands or have client meetings. After meeting with a few clients, I review my notes from the meetings, and try to finish up a few sketches. ML: I noticed that a lot of your work has a hand media quality to it despite being computerized, what is your customary design process? SC: It varies. For this specific project, I have a pencil drawing that I’ve inked and scanned into the computer. I then take the image into Photoshop to clean up the lines and color in all the images from there. I choose to use Photoshop because I believe it gives me more control in terms of color choices and producing a final clean graphic that I am satisfied with.

ML: Working as a freelance designer at home, I know that creativity can sometimes be hard to find. Where do you draw your inspiration? SC: “I document my ideas in many ways. I’ll take photos or save images in various reference folders on my computer. I’m always looking for ML: Do you have specific qualities you look for in a work space? SC: As a graphic designer living in New York, I like to change up my day. I usually, however, work on my laptop or computer at home.

MacDowell Art Colony is one of the most prestigious art colonies in the nation. With 450 acres of land, this colony hosts 32 artist studios. To preserve privacy, studios are hardly within view of each other.

Because the artist studios are so detached - Colony Hall is the artists’ communal space. Meals and logistical needs are taken care of here. Also, MacDowell’s library is also situated here to provide the artists with resources to aide their work.

MacDowell prides itself on being able to offer its residents a “sanctuary-like enviornment,” as well as, catering to each artist’s specific needs. Healthy lunches packed in the famed MacDowell baskets are quietly dropped off at each studio to prevent distractions for the MacDowell residents.

The Manchester School of Art is one of the oldest art schools in the United Kingdom. After merging with the Manchester Metropolitan University, the school wanted to expand its facilities to become the nation’s leader in design education. The Art School Extension is a combination of new buildings and an adaptive reuse of a 1960's Arts tower. It currently consists of studios, workshops, galleries and houses 3,500 students.

The architecture firm’s design concept was to provide an “engaging and lively environment...and help re-assert the art school’s...profile on the national stage.” David Crow, the dean of the Manchester School of Art desired a “hugely exciting arena where anything is possible and everything is relevant.” The goals were to create interactions between the various art and design disciplines through working alongside each other and showcasing their finished work.

Fellden Clegg Bradley Studios’ (FCB) design solution was the “Design Shed,” a series of open studios, workshops and teaching spaces. In addition, to connect the old renovated arts tower with the new construction, FCB created a seven storey “Vertical Gallery” to act as the main exhibition room and as a billboard of sorts for the school.

GROUND FLOOR PLAN

Studios and work spaces are centered around a communal area to promote interactions between users.

The gallery connects the old tower with the new expansion.

These Interaction nodes either give the users direct access to a communal space or allow for a vertical visual connection to others. These centers are designed to increase interaction and interdisciplinary work.

The “Vertical Gallery” acts as the seam between the old and the new buidling. These 7 floors showcase & advertise the school’s work.

The Long Studio is the first of six studios that will be built on Fogo Island. Located off the coast of Newfoundland, Fogo will be the location of a secluded Arts Residency Program. The first studio was pre-fabricated by local builders and then constructed on-site. The studios were designed to contrast the natural enviornment, but still be submissive to the landscape.

Each residence is divided into three zones. These three zones were designed to respodn to the seasons in Fogo Island. The open covered porch represents Spring and is also the entrance into the studio. The central portion is exposed so that the long Summer sun can infiltrate into the space. The last portion is a fully enclosed room to provide protection from the exterior yet still offer a connection to the natural surroundings.

HISTORY

89’

915 SW Second Avenue was originally built as a meeting place and public hall for the Ancient Order of United Workmen. The building was later appropriately nicknamed AOUW (Ancient Order of United Workmen Temple). Years later, the building was converted into an apartment complex known as the Tourny Apartments. In the last decade, the building’s first, second, and sixth floor have been re-purposed to serve as a night club as well as a restaurant. It is currently vacant.

WORK

Between Winter & Spring Term, I was wrestling with what the most fitting parti for my building was. In this diagram, I was sketching out to see whether or not a “collaborative circulation” path could help integrate the different artist disciplines.

Throughout this project, there were many revisions to what parts of the building should remain protected for the artists and what parts should be open to the public. This diagram sketch helped discover that the spaces that served the artists were very much the heart of the program. Thus, it was fitting for these spaces to also be located in the heart of the building. This ultimately lead to the sectional parti that drove my spatial design.

Napkin Sketches: In-Process drawings thinking through the “pop outs” occurring on the party wall. Sketches look at the geometries of the “popouts” and how they can be structurally supported.
