One Malindi

UN-Habitat Competition 2nd year Studio - Instructors George Mann, Zhipeng Lu Texas A&M University - Spring 2016 In colloboration with Katherine Beckett, Melanie Jackson, Aaron Armstrong and Luke Davis The concept of creating ‘One Malindi’ is founded in the belief that the town itself – as opposed to merely the adjacent resorts – is an enriching place to visit, a healthy home in which to live and grow, and a community built for a successful future. The philosophy of transcendence of place will bridge past individual, social, and economic differences to create a more prosperous people of Malindi. This proposal forms a framework for revitalization and future development to allow the town to reach this full potential. Simply put, Malindi’s future prosperity can emerge from creating meaningful connections: in terms of society, culture, economy, health, and the environment.

Social Connection The goal is to intertwine people to one another and to dissolve the existing social barriers. This connection will address the prevailing dichotomies between race, gender, class, culture, and generations. One major theme is offering settings for people to mix and form bonds between generations genders, classes, and races.

Cultural Connection One Malindi connects visitors, locals, and all generations to the unique local culture through exploration and celebration. With such a rich cultural narrative, investment in preserving and highlighting the story of the town must be a priority through quality access to public spaces along their shoreline, as well as improved contact with landmarks which speak of the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rich history.

Economic Connection The people of Malindi are in dire need of jobs in order to strengthen the local economy. It is important to build a future with strong economic growth and that enables participation of local people in the mainstream tourism economy by addressing the deficiency of hospitality training and the isolated nature of resorts. By boosting economic vitality, the town of Malindi itself can become a destination, not simply its neighboring lodges.

Health Connection In order to provide for well-connected community health, it is imperative to develop improved models of housing construction and layout that address the need for a healthy living environment without sacrificing density. Also critical is the development of a multi-level healthcare network that extends from accessible clinics integrated into the community to a hospital which is closely linked with the healing benefits of nature.

Environmental Connection The purpose is to link the town to its own future through a focus on environmentally resilient planning measures. As neighbors to and dependents on a delicate marine habitat, it is imperative to minimize negative impacts of rainwater runoff from developed areas. Malindi also faces the challenge of protecting infrastructure investments from the uncertainty of climate change, as well as prioritizing sustainable modes of transportation.

JoĂŁo Pessoa Housing Social Housing

3rd year Studio - Instructor Livia Catao Cartaxo Loureiro Texas A&M University - Fall 2016 In colloboration with Angela Brown The JoĂŁo Pessoa Housingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s goal is to accommodate pre-existing families in a current favela and improve their living conditions. As well as designing with the Brazilian culture at the heart, and not take anything away from their heritage. Creating public spaces that unite the community and residents of the favelas were another key role for this project. Within the project there are 30 units that have two floors that can each hold their own separate family. Which in total allows for appromixately 60 families to reside in this community. The form of the housing units then needed a device to provide semiprivate spaces in each individual room but still allow for a view of the outside and natural light to come inside. This device we created was inspired by the Brazilian Cobogo, an element that allows the entrance of sunlight and natural ventilation used in construction openings. We dictated how much coverage each room needed by the specific space it was covering. For example the living room is the least private area and therefore has the least amount of coverage by the panel. This could possibly be personalized for individual units.

Castilgion Fiorentino Centro Community Center

3rd year Study Abroad - Instructor Dr. Julie Rogers Santa Chiara Study Center, Castilgion Fiorientino, Italy - Spring 2017 In colloboration with Angela Brown, Katelyn Markham This center for Foro Boro in Castiglion Fiorentino is a revolving hub of activity that facilitates movement in the community. The center is a dynamic gathering space that draws people from all walks of life and generations. The design of the facility respects the existing community and the local heritage, while providing educational opportunities that promote innovative ideas to ensure a sustainable future. The programs occurring in these multi-functional spaces become a foundation for relationships between the old and young to form and pass down the traditions and knowledge from one generation to the next. In 20 years, we want this center to be an intersecting point for citizens from Castiglion Fiorentino, the surrounding Chiara Valley and even visitors to congregate and be a part of an active network that is bigger than itself.

Revitalizing the Norm Supermarket of the Future

2nd year Studio - Zhipeng Lu Texas A&M University - Fall 2015 In colloboration with Jordan Taylor, Tucker Harding, Lindsey Dusek, Justin Hoermann We assessed the needs and continuities of the supermarket through an extensive survey and research process. Through this we were able to implement our discoveries into our rendition of a futuristic and innovative grocery store that tailors to the need of the customer. Our designs, both interior and exterior, are geared toward the customersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; satisfaction and their overall experience within the store. This is done with the use of providing a better shopping experience with child care, appealing to customers who want a quick in-and-out experience, quality in our fresh produce, educating customers on health and nutrition, bringing in new technology, creating better wayfinding, natural lighting and medical resources.

The Orchard

Breast Cancer Center 4th year Studio - Instructor George Mann Texas A&M University - Fall 2017 In colloboration with Ashley Just, Stephen G. Parker The Orchard is located in Dallas, Texas, near the Parkland Medical Campus and would serve the indigent population of Dallas County. Most of this population ulitizes the public transportation which lead us to create our main axes from the local dart and bus station. Analyzing the site we found out that all of the treatment facilities were spread across this area. Our solution proposed a centralized comphensive breast cancer center that not only included treatment, but also a clinic, an appearance center, a wellness center and a healing center. The program addresses more than just the physical needs of the patients but also the psychological aspect that they undergo through this process. This whole project we wanted to enhance the Patient Experience and provide a center that would educate, heal and provide for the patient. Instead of creating one building that facilitates all these needs, we proposed for one main building that handles the clinic and treatment components, with a series of smaller units that provide education and the psychological therapy they need.

The site we chose was already proposed by Parkland for a new breast clinic and healing garden. With this given proposal, we interpreted the whole site becoming the garden not just a fraction. Then providing our lines of entries from the dart and bus stations, this gave us our axes. By doing this, we created a boulevard when aligning our buildings on this axis. With our program being so large, we wanted to create a form of personalized care and we accomplished this by dividing our program into smaller components that specialized on the patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s needs. Our last step was creating connections in between our main building, with the surrounding context and as well as natural light. Light wells pierce through main building that holds the clinic and treatment facilities, allowing light to feed into the space.
