fourth year elected to investigate a new model for secondary schools, thinking about how and where we educate ourselves.

the school within the scope of the Department of Education and Science programme.

Athlone, Mullingar and Tullamore with two sites in each town. The students researched the towns in terms of their social, economic and environmental fabric. This town study lead to a series of proposed interventions in areas of the town and these interventions then informed the site for the new secondary school.

The students began their school project with a series of talks by current practitioners and historians. This allowed the students to begin the design process from an informed stance. The school brief was chosen environmental matters in the initial concept through to detail design and to a fresh perspective.

Department of Architecture Degree Course in Architecture, Fourth Year Architecture 2012-2013 Stage 4 ADS VII Arch 4102 Project No. 1 Sentient Towns Introduction The understanding of context for an architect is a crucial part of streetscape and place making. Context does not have to be slavishly followed but successful placing of a building demands that the rules are understood before they can be broken. This project involves careful study of streetscape and place - an exercise in measurement, in proportion and also in perception.

Identity & Place urban design is.. “ essentially about place making, where places are not just a specific space, but all the activities and events that make it possible�

Peter Buchanan In order to design beautiful yet useful public spaces, it is necessary to observe and understand human behaviour. As architects we need to start looking with fresh eyes at how children, adults, elderly, both male and female behave, walk, talk, interact, and how they relate to space. We should observe & identify what makes people happy, unhappy etc., more importantly, try to understand the conditions necessary to get such reactions. We need to observe also how people use spaces and what makes them successful.

Project No. 2 Semester 1 Stage 1 - Observation & Recording Information Tuesday 18.09.12 To observe human behaviour in the public realm, in your town. Examine a variety of public spaces indicated on the attached map under the assigned headings..

Thursday 20.09.12 You are asked to return to the town and observe under the attached headings. You should explore the needs of people and how they use the public spaces in your town, this includes streets, squares, parkland, wasteland etc. From your observations you need to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the town and its identity. Explore how traffic interacts with the town and supports or disrupts the space in the town.

Stage one – Information to Analysis You are asked to examine existing urban spaces throughout the town. Some of these nodes exhibit poor public realm, many a disjuncture between old and new buildings.

You should prepare drawings and/or models that show these different conditions The form of study should involve the following: History of street/area of study hand drawn axonometric of space studied colour/material studies including abstract pattern painting of student’s impression of the space analysis of uses analysis of routes analysis of connecting spaces and ‘left over’ spaces analysis of house types analysis of edges interviews with town residents observe and describe human behaviour describe a macro and micro level Student led debate on good and bad streetscape – an assessment of context values.

Friday 21.09.12 Submission and Discussion of above list of information The medium chosen to present your study should build up an awareness of the other senses also, which are a vital part of the overall experience of our environment as a whole. There are many possible approaches to this study and we would like you initially to be intuitive and trust your own powers of observation.

Department of Architecture Degree Course in Architecture, Fourth Year Architecture 2012-2013 Stage 4 ADS VII Arch 4102 Project No. 2 School & Community Introduction The understanding of the environment can inform how you as an architect investigate. You need to use your skill as an investigator to inform how you can consider the environment at a macro and micro scale and interrogate an exacting brief to deliver a successful design. This project involves careful study of use of space at a variety of scales from the individual student to how the overall relates to a wider urban context.

In his book Life Between Buildings Gehl argues against monofunctional areas and explores reasons for placing schools in the middle of an urban context. He states that classrooms can be placed around public streets and then those streets can serve as corridors and playgrounds, cafes can also be canteens for the school. The town/city can be part of the educational process with overlapping functions of town and school brief. Your project should encompass this opportunity for one function to work with another at the town scale and also provide a community of learning for its users.

Site Analysis to Concept

You are asked to continue your investigation of site and context and now combine this with your understanding of the requirements of the school brief. Examine how the existing urban spaces throughout the town can be reinforced/integrated into the new school community.

You should also deconstruct the school brief to adhere to its requirements but take an informed stance as to where these can be changed to produce better architecture. You should also examine how a passive urban strategy can inform your approach to site.

The form of study should involve the following: Investigation of context Integration of context with school brief Existing and proposed routes Presentation of circulation through urban and school spaces Analysis of brief Macro level strategy Exploration of a passive environmental strategy for the site

The initial concept was to challenge the current education system and encourages group work and informal learning. The idea of transformation, where the physical transformation made by students, the transformative effect a school has on a community and was investigated; to provide a transparency to the building.

The school building sets up a relationship with the adjacent A2 ping street, to be used by the students at lunch and then by the community at the weekend. The library, canteen and wood/metalwork workshops have been integrated the into the community so that they may be used by local residents during out of school hours.

Dean Murphy Site F Athlone The concept for this school design is based around the Maria Montessori educational pedagogy. The philosophy is based around group learning where the teacher becomes secondary within the class and effectively acts as a mediator. Each class facilitates this method by placing students primarily in group scenarios and the teacher based in a neutral part of the class.

Meeting spaces and group areas are provided in most classes with the majority consisting of double height space to place their hierarchy within the learning environment provided. In the more public spaces of the school a number of various conditions have been provided for students to congregate based on their individual preferences. These range from large scale areas such as the general purpose hall to individual study zones which inhabit various niches around the school.

Establishing an identity for the school was a driving factor behind the materiality. The main portions of the south, east and west facing facades are made up of timber vertical louvres that are individually controlled by each room. This control over the classroom lighting would lead to an ever changing facade arrangement over the course of the day or year. This would provide a visual interest for both the public and students, making an architectural statement over what might otherwise be an ill considered shading device.

Semester 2 Introduction Theory for Practice

Paul Kelly

The work of this semester is centred around the theme of “Building” students are challenged to combine interests they are developing in their Theory and Tectonics strands with their Studio work. The intention is to form and architectural space and beyond to the urban level.

The goal of the Advanced Design Studio (ADS) is to develop an attitude to the concept for a building that is applicable over the entire range of concerns of Architecture. The concept should be a touchstone that informs decisions at the urban scale and also at the scale of the human form. This practical application of a concept or theory serves to ensure a consistency of thinking over the development of a project analogous

approach to Architecture, students infuse their work with ideas that they tectonic approaches.

To this end the students were set briefs at the ranged from the design of an object, chair or bench to “support” the human form, a high density housing scheme and the detailed design of an aspect of this housing project that was fundamental to the concept for the project. This approach philosophical standpoint against the backdrop of the implementation of ideas. Architecture can be described as physical form given to abstract Architecture. To further these ideas students are encouraged to investigate materials obtain samples and to seek to understand as far a possible the nature of the materials they propose working with.

Projects investigated in this semester will be set against the back drop of BTS (Building Technology and Structure), essentially we will place a firm emphasis on the Tectonic.

Living & Learning “Architecture begins when you place two bricks carefully together” Mies van der Rohe “Get the habit of analysis - analysis will in time enable synthesis to become your habit of mind” Frank Lloyd Wright “A great building must begin with the immeasurable, must go through measurable means when it is being designed, and in the end must be unmeasured.” Louis Kahn The relationship between decisions about material, structure and detail have significant impacts on the reading of a building and the confirmation or undermining do an architectural concept. This studio will examine the relationship between concept and the implemented architectural proposal. The means of this examination will be large scale drawings and sectional models supported by general arrangement plans and sections.

Luas

The current EIS report on the proposed Luas ‘St. Stephen’s Green to Boombridge’ line, indicated a route through the neighbouring Dublin Bus Broadstone depot. This proposal indicates a large amount of tunnelling under this property to facilitate a link through to the old canal basin. By a simple redirection through the Grangegorman site ( e ), this proposal suggests a route which substantially reduces the amount of expensive tunnelling and brings the community right into the heart of the Grangegorman larger urban plan. This proposal responds to the architectural hierarchy of the clock tower building and seeks to address the pre-established wide avenue of Grangegorman road upper. This design offers permeability through the site which should further dispense with any stigmatism associated with the sites history.

Water Filtration & Leisure Park

In a response to the city’s drinkable water shortage in coming years, this proposal aims to put the land to use, recycling and purifying waste water by means of a system of managed reed filtration beds that work in sequence to eliminate and distil water fit for drinking. Recycled lorry containers from site are positioned to provide real time information concerning the parks consumption and output.

As the wider community pass through the park walks they learn and visualise in real time the environmental benefit this park provides. The Public can access the raised deck, designed to have minimum impact on the ground below and to allow pedestrians meander along its path as it winds through the tall reed grass. Sculptural trees constructed from metal piping which use water jet to perform sequenced waterspray performance are positioned around the park at break-out points to provide a spectacle, weather permitting.

Farmers market

With Ireland hosting the European Parliament in Farmleigh, a local thriving farmers market has been closed for business as it has on previous official occasions. This market is quite well known to the wider community and is a loss to the locals. A permanent home for this market is proposed in Grangegorman which will further encourage community interaction with the site. d

b

Existing Structures

Existing buildings on the site, namely the cloak tower and nurses building, with a general restoration and retrofit can accommodate public and community functions and eventually become reintegrated into the phased masterplan works. Due to their scale, these buildings offer the added benefit of gravity induced pressure to the parks water pumping capabilities. Simply by routing pipework within these buildings to high level and returning to ground; this can boost water pressure to the park and surrounding areas. The dilapidated asylum building shell could be repaired and used temporarily to house water storage tanks. Due to the buildings elevated level over Smithfield and surrounding areas, this could potentially give the added benefit of increased water pressures in the discharging supply piping network.

ESM, Semester 1

As part of the submission for ‘ESM project 1- Urban Eco - system’ group project, these cross sections through the site show the character, variance in building types, topology of the site in its context and demonstrate the large under-utilised open spaces to the hinterlands behind the streetscape. (Please refer to section lines illustrated on plan, previous page)

This page was prepared displaying a selection of my personal sketches from Athlone town drawn during our intial visit to the town.

These sketches were hand drwan on the initial visit to the town and illustrate the character of the town center and suburbia.

This page was prepared in conjunction with ADS as group research into the climate of Athlone town. Information was gathered by website accessed weather data from Met Eireann.

This page was prepared in conjunction with ADS as group research into the prevailing wind patterns local to Athlone town.

Information was gathered by website accessed weather data from Met Eireann.

This page displays part-submission of group work from the ‘ESM project 2- Macro Site Planning and its impact on Microclimate’. This submission illustrated the sun path over the selected site and used computer modeling to illustrate shadow paths on three seperate times over the day on the months of January, May and October, as the sun tracks its way across the sky.

This page displays my submission for the ‘ESM project 3- Building Form: Daylight & Ventilation’. In this submission I sought to illustrate my strategy for natural ventilation and daylighting in my ADS school building design. As design development continued my strategy for ventilation changed from ‘Venturi’ to centralised courtyards.
