SMART ART

page 2


-- The University of Chicago is recognizable for its use of quadrangles within the building forms and plans of campus. This addition of The Smart Museum is inspired by the quadrangle organization as a way of framing views of the surrounding campus and landscape, giving depth to the site. The design proposal focuses on four major program areas of the museum addition; exhibition space, administration and service, food service, and multi-purpose space. The four areas act as destinations for users within the site. The form of the building is determined by logically organizing the four program areas and then folding the landscape into the building. The result is a series of floor to ceiling glass lined voids that frame views of the outside into the program areas and from the inside out to the landscape and campus beyond. It is important not be overwhelmed by the addition. The central courtyard between the Cochrane-Woods Art Center and the Smart Museum services as a connection point across the site to Ellis Avenue. The placement of the addition on the site maintains an open view to the existing courtyard, framed by a bridge connecting the north and south portions of the new building. The bridge draws visitors into the site and into the buildings entries. While the new addition is bold in its form and contemporary in its materials, its voids and frames are a nod to the traditional quadrangle system and help to connect the addition not only to the Smart Museum, but to the larger campus.

IRON ST FARM

page 10


--The concept was to make the building an asset to the growing process by letting it grow and expand when it needed to. The hoop houses are pulled up and plugged into the building to grow. Each hoop house base is made of recycled truck trailers and the top is made of aluminum ribs and etfe. The hoop houses can be made of combinations of two or four truck trailers. The buildings original function was a semi-truck shipping depot and by simply lifting the current hoop house design and making minor modifications, the new building celebrates the history of the building, while introducing it with new life.

INTERLOCKING BLOCKS

page 16


-- The concept of this project was to take the traditional Chicago row house and the block it sits on and transform it into a housing cluster that has double the occupancy. The row houses are transformed to identify with more current needs of people living in cities. The homes also come in different sizes and can be arranged in numerous ways. This combination of options give each block a unique look while truly identifying with the current and future needs of its people. Each block holds a sunken parking garage in the center with a large park on top. This creates a place for people to interact and reduces the need for harsh alleyways. Each unit also has their own personal green space and the combinations stand no more than 2 levels above ground.
