My passion for architecture is rooted in my love of the ocean and its intricate, delicate ecology. Each piece of the puzzle is essential to the next; a change to a single piece could destroy the whole picture. The selected works in this portfolio begin to address the fragile relationship between the built and natural world and start to question what a more integrated, holistic future may look like. This portfolio has two parts. Integrated design focuses on embodying natural systems such as the water or plant cycle within the built environment. Beneficial design focuses on creating spaces which enhance the user’s performance, experience, and overall well-being.

Consider the cherry tree: thousands of blossoms create fruit for birds, humans, and other animals, in order that one pit might eventually fall onto the ground, take root, and grow. Who would look at the ground littered with cherry blossoms and complain, ‘How inefficient and wasteful!’ ... What might the human-built world look like if a cherry tree had produced it?

LIVE AND DYE Residential \ Production Space Portland, OR Team: Sumana Raghavendra, Gretchen Leary

Think back to the last time you flushed the toilet. Did you even question where it went? Situated beneath the residential units is a wool dyeing production space. Worldwide, wool dyeing uses extremely harsh chemicals and excess amounts of water. In a direct respone to this toxic establishment, our building uses elements that are already produced in the building, such as herbs, rainwater, greywater, and urine to create a fully organic, water conscious product. Urine is collected from the residential units and used as a mordant to fix the organic dyes that are made from herbs harvested on site. In our current built environment, water hits impervious surfaces, collects pollutants and is rushed into the river, harming the ecosystem. This hydrological design mimics the natural water flow by first intercepting the water’s path, slowing it down, using it for production, cleaning it, and releasing it back healthier. The intent is not to create a closed loop, but an integrated piece within the larger ecosystem. Becoming a catalyst for future wool dyeing franchises.

PRODUCE YOUR OWN PRODUCE Urban Design Green Loop, Portland, OR Team: Individual

Bees, veggies, fish, oh my! In an effort to accomodate Portland’s rapid growth and bring the community together, the Central City 2035 Plan has conceptualized the Green Loop. A six mile linear park which will reflect the uniqueness of Portland while bringing sustainable, healthy, entrepreneurial, and communal elements into the city’s core. The Green Loop will reconfirm Portland’s dedication to integrating the natural world within the built environment. This urban design project connects the Green Loop to the Willamette River by draping SW Montgomery St in an Urban Farm. This project has the opportunity, similar to the Green Loop as a whole, to stitch three different communities together. Eventually creating a socioecological corridor for the students of PSU, the residents of SW Portand, and the businesses inbetween to trade, farm, and thrive together along Montgomery’s Produce Corridor.

ontgomery’s Produce Corridor introduces a closed loop social-ecological system for the community. For example, in the Lavendar District 1. Bees polinate the roof top Lavendar Gardens 2. Lavendar Honey is harvested 3. Between neighbors, Honey is traded for Vegetables 4. Produce is consumed 5. Waste is composted and fertilizes Lavendar Garden By blanketing all available, exterior surfaces of SW Montgomery street, pollinators are more inclined to visit the city, which improves the health of the plants and the city and the produce can be easily cultivated and shared amongst the community. The primary exchange plaza operates much like a farmers market in the middle of the corridor for residents, restaurants, visitors, and students to share excess produce and ideas.

L E T T H E W AT E R D E S I G N Residential Neighborhood Plan Spokane, WA Team: Craig Hoffman, Janessa Johnson, Alexander Yu

The site for a proposed neighborhood nestles on a plateau above the Spokane River. Not only is most of the vegetation depleted from repetitious destruction of the site, but the nearby river is polluted. Stormwater runoff in Spokane has become a major problem for the city. Pooling of excess stormwater and pollutants from our built environment re-entering the river are the main concerns. Therefore, our group decided to allow the natural water system to inform the design of the neighborhood and then implement additional filtration systems and water conservation strategies.

Soil type studies determine the inďƒžltration rates of each rain garden at inches per hour.

Based on the topography , when water falls onto the site it will ďƒ&#x;ow to the lower depressions and begin to pool. The rain gardens are devised from these natural pools of water.

After studying where water would naturally pool on the site, we were able to create miniature communities to surround them. This allows each household close access to a pond and community garden space, while enchancing their awareness of the natural systems. Some of these systems include bioswales, recycling and harvesting greywater, infiltration zones , and raingardens. // Our formula and rules were implemented using the

HYDROLOGIC DESIGN Net Zero Water Building Portland, OR Water Systems Engineering Assignment

Located just east of the North Park Blocks, in Portland, Oregon, this business incubator building (discussed further on page 35) is a mixture of commercial and co-working space, therefore, the building’s water demand will be highest during the day. In order to achieve a net zero water system, this building will receive its potable water for kitchenettes and the restaurant primarily from rainfall. The initial rainfall will be stored in the blue roof, which sits next to the green roof (this is an edible green roof, which supplies the restaurant with vegetables). The kitchenettes and bathrooms of the office floors require minimal amounts of water, so they will initially receive their source from the blue roof that goes through a UV disinfection treatment. The greywater from the office floors is piped to an exterior green wall, which simultaneously irrigates the green wall and filtrates the greywater before it reaches the larger water storage below grade. The underground water storage sits within the parking garage and is meant to assist the office floors’ water demand during times when there is no rainfall. A large, robust greywater UV treatment system is also located in the parking garage and is the main greywater-to-potable-water treatment system for the building. After the water is treated to potable standards, depending on needs, it is either pumped to the restaurant, up to the office floors, or to the green roof as edible-safe irrigation. Wastewater is negligible because composting toilets are used in this building. The solids and leachate from these toilets are collected and transformed into fertilizer to be used in the adjacent Park Blocks and any other ornamental vegetation throughout the city.

27 | rach el ha ll

Although it is not a perfect reflection of the natural system, this net zero water system relies on seasonal pumping in order to minimize energy use in pumping up large quantities of water. Rather than having one massive water storage unit underground, this system has two. This way the smaller demand from the office floors may be met primarily through gravity fed pipes from the blue roof. During the drier months when rainfall is scarce, the robust greywater treatment and large, overflow storage can be tapped into and pumped up to the top of the building and then gravity fed down the building as originally designed. Not only does this eliminate constant energy use to pump, it also can minimize the water storage area underground—saving crucial surface area for a commercial building. This building can become a catalyst for the rest of the buildings along NE Couch Street. Its water storage can begin to provide potable water for other commercial buildings; creating a district level approach with net zero water systems. The building also begins to supply its composting toilets with left over sawdust from the wood shop and restaurant with food and water which is collected, harvested, and prepared on site. This can become an educational tool to show the community how buildings can become self-sufficient no matter what the program is inside. This proposal is not only achieving net zero water, but beginning to address issues in energy use, food distribution, and occupants’ overall carbon footprint.

FARM TO CLASSROOM Professional Practice Pullman, WA Team: Individual

The Eggert Family Organic Farm is a certified organic farm on the campus of Washington State University with a mission to provide WSU students, employees, and the community a space for teaching, researching, outreaching, and enjoying sustainable, organic, and biologically intensive agriculture. This Community Center is a direct reflection of the Eggert Family’s mission. In order to create the most effective space, the client’s goals were prioritized and directly informed the layout of the building. This community center needed to be able to handle different types of occupants including the worker, student, and broader community member. In an effort to make the center habitable for a variety of users without creating redundancies, the resulting center is primarily designed to be adaptable and flexible.

I N . C U B E . B ATO R Business Incubator Portland, OR Team: Individual work

Urban business incubators are meant to offer inexpensive spaces for startup companies to thrive and take off. Traditionally, in an effort to remain affordable in the city, this typology is a simple warehouse-esque building with segregated spaces and minimal support services. How uninspiring! Startup companies are born to innovate, yet they are confined to spaces that do not spark creativity. Inspiration strikes in a vairtey of ways. Some people prefer solutude and silence to gather their thoughts, while others recharge by breaking a sweat with a group of friends. Regardless of their method, successfull humans need spaces to separate themselves from work in order to return with a clear head and productive attitude.
