STRAWBERRY MANSION

Professional Project: Coughlin Architecture

Schematic Design

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Winter 2017

- My role within this project was aiding in conceptual and schematic decisions, as well as producing all project representational imagery and the decisions for each image. - This project is a ground up residential proposal for the Strawberry Mansion neighborhood of Philadephia, Pennsylvania. Although the project remained in the very early schematic stage, its planning up to this point was very thorough through intensive study of transporation system dynamics around the site. The project was also designed to ensure that each resident received plenty of natural light, and that its distribution was equitably dispersed. The project is sited directly across from a newly developed park, ensuring that if residents do not get a unit with a roof desk or within the courtyard space, that access to outdoor leisure space would not be missed. The form of the building was purposely playful and use of strawberry red colors complimented the range of colors displayed on the surrounding single family homes within the neighborhood.
