2014 ARCHITECTURE PORTFOLIO

Building is not only about a space that surrounded by walls but it is also a way people expressing or influencing other people to create a certain feeling. A famous phrase in designing a building is “form follow fuction.” However, in a way that function must also tell a story about the design or how the building interact with the surrounding. Building should show a statement. It feels like the building has a soul that can interact with the people who occupy it.

01 PROJECT

CHARRETTE. WEEK VAMOS Newcastle Universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Charette Project is an innovative idea that brings together all architecture students from across the years and the masters related to Architecture. This year there were 9 groups, each one engaged with a different brief. The aim is to allow students to express their creativity, going beyond the border between architecture and art.

VAMOS

Vamos is a mexican term which mean celebration. Therefore, in this project, colour become the most dominant element. In this project, our team is required to built structures that strong enough to stand by themselves and support the decoration that will hang on the wire across the structure.

MODERN ART IN THE FORM OF HOUSE The concept of the house is inspired from the clients who are an art collector. The design is projected from one of their painting collection. Every artist try to deliver a message through the paintings, so does this house. This house has become one of the clientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s collections. It is not only functional but also has become a piece of art.

02. A new gallery at Gillman Barracks,

Singapore is one of the contemporer gallery that inspired me to design the small terrace. The idea behind the image is about the white colour that is used on the wall and the floor. By using this colour, the artwork could be the most dominant for the visitors when they visit the gallery. ARCHITECTURE.PORTFOLIO RB

LIVING ON THE EDGE FORM FOLLOW FUNCTION The shape of the foyer is form by the movement of each room and it has created into a huge piece of sculpture. This sculpture has given a statement about the society, who they are and what they do. The glass box that cover the building is designed to give a protection to the sculpture (internal wooden wall) and also give an open space for the exhibition, so the people who come can enjoy the beautiful view of the river.

OUR RANDOM DAILY ACTIVITIES As we understand foyer is a placed for homeless people or young people who have a bad family background. So, the intention of the foyer is to change those people so they can cope to the society, in another word, be a better person. Most people who are homeless, they tend not to have a discipline. They usually do what they want, for example time to wake up, when to bath, even when the time to eat. In this design, the relation between the foyer and the building is key. Each room is placed in a way to create a step-by-step guide for the foyer to learn what should they do in their daily activities. This means the building as a dead thing has started to teach the foyer to be discipline and from discipline it create a habit.

CIVIC. CENTRED. THE PRIDE STONE The idea that laid behind the building is how people can able to see or understand the tynemouth within the building. The castle, the beach and the city itself are three important aspects that attract people to come to Tynemouth. Therefore, site C is the best side to feel the tynemouth as a whole. In addition, the program that I choose is the moothall and library, where is the combination that can support each other, specifically children library as when their parents have a meeting, their children have a place to go and play.

03. On Site/Elevation, from the concept translated into a building that fit to the site. The design gives the sense of the solidity. Furthermore, the entrance has a contrast colour from the external, gives the sense of the rock that have a hole and that interact people come into the building. ARCHITECTURE.PORTFOLIO RB

CROSSOVER MOVEMENT A cycle super hub is not only a storage space for bikes but also includes bike hire facilities, bike shop, repair workshop, and a cafe. It sounds irrelevant to add a cafe in the bike hub, but adding a cafe to the cycle hub can actually encourage bikers to get along and socialize with each other, or have a rest, or pre cycling meal before setting off.

P R O J E C T. 5

Both sites have good potential access and car parking with easy links to the city centre by bicycle, although site 2 has much better public transport accessibility. Site 2 has been chosen as the preferred location. Although site 1 fits better with the sustainable theme, through rejuvenation of a brownfield site, site 2 is preferable in the other desires. This location provides a stunning view and equally a highly visible building, and therefore a greater opportunity to create a landmark. The opportunity for greater community use; due to the location adjacent to the football fields and in the centre of the mountain bike trail, is also favourable. Additionally being situated within the trail gives the building greater association with cycling; both mountain biking and touring, which is the main theme of the project.

SITE

MATERIALITY

Glulam has been chosen as the main building materials due to its homogeneous properties, ability to produce long span length beams and simplicity of creating curved shapes. Unlike traditional timber its structural performance is much easier to predict, enabling it to be used as the main structure of the building. This is important for the design as visibility of the structure is part of the concept. The weight of the material also minimises the need for large plant, which would be undesirable in this location close to the city. It fits with the desire for a sustainable building; being a renewable material, having low thermal mass, requiring 6 times less energy to produce than the equivalent steel beam and 5 times less than concrete.

ARCHITECTURE.PORTFOLIO RB

MOVEMENT The general shape of the building came from the idea of having a Velodrome as part of the building. We decided to revamp the original shape of a Velodrome and change it to the symbol of infinity. This has now become the roof structure of the super hub allows cyclists to travel on it from one side to the other as well as using it as a type of velodrome. From the velodrome roof there would be extensive views of the centre of Sheffield and also of the surrounding countryside.

Standard beam widths are between 90mm and 240mm, ours is likely to be wider as curved shapes will increase amount of torsion the beam is subjected to. Therefore a width of 215mm has been chosen. The ramp beams need only support its selfweight, bicycles and people and the roof beams the weight of the roof, wind and snow loads. These loads will not be particularly large so as judged from the tables below the floor beams (15m span) can be 765mm deep as 5kN/m2 is sufficient. The same width of beam have been chosen for the roof for continuity and buildability.

BEAM

STRUCTURE

The structures of the changing rooms, kitchen and workshop will act as cores. These will be concrete clad in wood and create the required rigidity for the building.

The following table shows the number of lamination that will be required for our roof and floor beams (17) as well as the self-weight of the beam. The selfweight of 0.8KN/m3 is light, a particular advantage of Glulam and therefore will not add much weight to the structure. ARCHITECTURE.PORTFOLIO RB

HOME IN A NEW WORLD

RAYMOND BOEDI 110558138 T H E P L A C E OFHOUSES A R C 2 0 2 3 2013/2014

Bachelard has written that “all really inhabited space bears the essence of the notion of home”. What is the relevance of concepts of home for non-domestic spaces? Can ‘home’ exist beyond the domestic sphere? Use specific examples to construct your argument.

INTRODUCTION

UNDERSTANDING OF HOME

There is an ambiguous in the understanding between house and home. The house is where we live, but a home is for the soul. Home does not only mean a residence but also mental capacities, emotional relationships and social ties. Home can be described in various ways. These descriptions have categorized home as a place of security and control, as a mirror of personal views and values, as an influence and place for change, as both an opportunity for permanency and continuity, as a center for family relationships and friendship, as the center of activity, as a retreat from surrounding world, as personal status indicator, as a concreter structure and, as a place to own (Rowles and Chaudhury, 2005, p. 144). These categories are influenced by many crucial factors including age, gender, personal characteristics and sociocultural background.

Home is not only about one specific place that people used to live in but it is also more about the society that built into. It means that people can have a place that is called home more than one. Every individual in this world have the ability to adapt to the surrounding environment and society. Although in some cases, it takes times for people to fit into the environment. Therefore, the answer for the question about can home exist beyond the domestic sphere is mostly possible. In this poster will illustrate the arguments and factors that create the possibility. On the other hand, it will also mention the aspects that preclude for the individual to create a place as home.

THEORIES

SPATIAL, TEMPORAL, AND SOCIOCULTURAL

III

According to Altman and Werner (1985) mention that home is about the order that means patterning in environmental experience and behaviour. To feel at home is a way of being whereby people are oriented within a spatial, temporal, and sociocultural order that we understand. To be at home is to know where we are; it means to inhabit a secure center and to be oriented in space. It is a personal space where people order their existence in space. It also creates a territory with both physical and symbolic boundaries that ensure people who live inside have the full access in controlling the space. In the temporal order, home is understood as an origin of our activities. The routines that people do have created an unconscious perception about the environment. It feels secure and safe within the boundaries and gives a relaxation sensation, in contrast, when

people are far from their home, they need to be alert and adaptable. One of the example is that although walking around in the dark, when the light is turn off, people will still feel secure and they still can feel where the furniture or things are located within the house. Furthermore, the sociocultural order can be extremely flexible and conservative. As Rapport and Dawson (1998) stated that the globe is a unified space, where no place is completely itself and separate, and no place is completely other. In the modern world, where some culture have lost their identity and as an international culture become the root in most countries, it is not a major concern for people to inhabit to a new environment and blend with the local culture.

NEW HOME FOR STUDENTS

STUDENT STUDY TO DEVELOPING COUNTRY CONTROLLED WELL BY GOVERNMENT STAY FOR ONE PERIOD OF TIME PATTERNING NEW ENVIRONMENT IV

These three orders have showed that people can find a home beyond its origin by patterning the way they live in a new environment. Students, for instance, who have long leave their home country to study abroad, may experience the idea of home beyond the domestic sphere. The orders they have patterned in new place have given them the sense of comfortable and secure. Students who come from developing countries experience most of this scheme. They tend to feel uncomfortable when they go back to their homeland. This is caused by the system in the developed countries; the society is well organized and strictly controlled by the government. This has built a sense of safe and secure for the residents. Therefore, when students back to their country where the system is still being developed, they will feel the lack of secure and safe. This has contrasted with the idea of home where it is the most secure place. (Primary Experience)

Most of them migrate with their family members and find a new life there where education, economic and social life are better. In the survey by the Carnegie Cooperation of New York, 71% of the immigrants will still prefer to live in the United States if they are given the choice to stay in their home country or to move there. This has reinforced the statement that people tend to call a place “home” where they can secure their future life with a better job and can provide a better life standard like education for their children.

DEVELOPED COUNTRY

THE PLACE OF HOUSES

The boundaries, the place where we feel secure

In this era, globalisation has become a common topic. People could travel easily from one place to another places. For some people, their journey to another country is not just for a visit or holiday but also to migrate for a good reason, such as to find a better job and have a better living standard. People tend to stay on a certain place where they feel the most secure stable, and comfortable. This shows how people have able to create a home beyond the domestic sphere. Home is not about where people are born from but is it more about how it is created and the time people have spent in a certain period of time in their life. For example are the immigrants in the United States. According to Miller and Vogel (n.d.), most immigrants can adapt quickly and become comfortable in the United States, one of the highest immigrants destination country in the world.

OBSTACLE

FACTOR : AGE

Difficult to accept the new home for elderly people

In addition, one of the most influences factors that affect people to create a new home is age. People who are still in their young age especially children will have the ability to cope with the environment easily. This is caused by the perception of home has not embedded in their mind. Therefore, the flexibility in accepting different cultures and creating a new perception of home are become the major advantage. However, elderly immigrants find this situation as a different level of depression. Their ideas about home have largely been formed by their cultures of origin. Their views have also been affected by life conditions such as class affiliation, social standing, and previous city versus country living. For example, according to a report from the National Swedish Board of Health and Welfare, some elderly immigrants desire placement in separate residences along with other elders from the same culture, with the same language and religion, where they can experience a common value system.

In conclusion, home is not about physical appearances where people live in but it is about the soul that is created by many factors, such as family relationship, orders that is patterned by time, and the sense of secure, comfortable and belonging. Home beyond domestic sphere is possible and it has become more popular in this era of mobility and globalisation. People tend to move to another country to create a better life. The high rate of immigration is one of the indications that people are able find a new home for them. Although there is flexibility in accepting new culture, elderly will find difficulties in creating a new home where the perception of home has embedded deeply in their mind.

The Code for Sustainable Homes has been developed to enable a step change in sustainable building practice for new homes. The Code is intended as a single national standard to guide industry in the design and construction of sustainable homes. It is means, greater innovation and exemplary achievement in sustainable home building. In 2009, buildings have produced approximatley 43% of all the UK’s carbon emissions. The environment can be harmed by the buildings and other developments, such as poor waste management and inefficient use of resources. On the diagram (fig.1) shows that the initial design of the tutor flat has no credit rating. This has resulted in unsufficient building design which is unsuitable to be built due to the current code for the sustainable home. On the other hand, by the alternation in building design such as the design construction, materiality and insulation ,has turned over the result, from -32% to 15% DER over TER. Furthermore, the CO2 emissions is also decreased by almost half which is less harmful to the environment. On the figure 2 is also showed that the building design after alteration has 85 RAP that is relatively energy effiecient thus lower running course. PLAN

DESIGN BRIEF

FIG.3

BEFORE ALTERATION

III

Dialux is a program that help us to determine the intensity of light inside the building. It also provides an illustration how the light will penetrate through the glazing. Therefore, in this project, it helps us to understand how good is our building design. Figure 3 shows the number of lux that enters the room. The appropriate number of lux is between 300-400 lx. The design of the flat before alteration shows an exchesive bright almost in every area of the room (Fig.4,5,6) with white colour dominants. It creates unsuitable room to live in. This is caused by the enormous use of glazing that can lead to heat lose.

Fig.2

The tutor is designed separately from the main building. It is intended to be the boat house which give the flexibility for the tutor to have a time for their own private life. The facade of the flat is mainly covered by glazing and timber. It contains of two level which the ground floor is more opened compare to the first floor. This is caused by the first floor is designed as the bedroom which require a higher rate of privacy. The timber wraps around the boat house with a horizontal feel which is gradually more dense on the upper part.

AFTER ALTERATION

In the Dialux, it is set to be in the middle of June and at around 12 a.m. which is approximately the strongest sun during the year. Therefore, the result can give the understanding about the overheating during summer. By decreasing the number of windows, the room can get a relatively 200-400 lx which can be assumed as good design. The design of the windows is still maintained to give the initial feel of the horizontal line around the flat. The glazing system that used on the flat is also changed from double glazing to triple glazing. This has resulted in reducing the heat loss of the overall building. On the design of the flat, the building is run narrow from North West to South East, followig the river’s path. This allows to maximize the daylight from the South West.

ROOF

After doing some research and comparison, it comes FIG.17 to the result of using the UK-Kalzip-System. This roof is the most suitable in term of providing the lowest U-values and having the right construction material properties.By using the 100 duo roofing system and the colotex TC3000 insulation with 150 mm thickness, the calculation of the U-values produces as low as 0.15 W/m2K. Furthermore, the advantage of this roof system is low maintainance with the self cleaning surface. The design of the product is recyclable, sustainable and compact. It is constructed from a corrosion resistant alluminium alloy ,which is recyclable, as the base material, and high density thermal insulation with a highly compressed surface. In addition, this roof system is also has the potential to be retrofitted with specialised solar panels.

This product has a high performance thermal conductivity which is 0.022 W/mK. After the alteration of the walls, it influences the calculation of the U-values of the floor. By thickening the wall, the U-values has lower to 0.06 W/ m2K which is relatively good in term of comfort for the wholelife building and has a low running costs.

FIG.19

The major improvement of the building FIG.20 is influenced by the glazing system. By changing the glazing sytem from double glazing to triple glazing has decreased a significant number of the U-values. On the figure 20 and 21 show that the Clayton company,one of the North of Englandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s biggest manufacturers of glazing,provides a suitable triple glazing system for the tutor flat. It decreases the U-values to 0.6 W/m2K with 44mm thickness, providing a good thermal barier to not allow a significant high heat loss. Furthermore, the other advantage of the triple glazing system is to reduce the VIII amount of noise that enter the building.

On figure 1 shows that the SAP calculation figures out the amount of cost that is required annually. After the alterations, the is a significant decrease in total yearly energry costs from ÂŁ 397.0306 to ÂŁ 222.7362. The calculation indicates that the tutor flat requires 2959.66 kWhr/year for the water heating system costing ÂŁ 91.74/year and 2711.67 kWhr/year for the space heating system costing ÂŁ 84.1 /year . To decrease the cost of the heating system of the flat, research in the renewable energy is required.

The alteration of the wall have changed a significant improvement to overall the building. The PAROCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s product provides the most suitable wall system which could produce the lowest U-values (0.07 W/m2K). On figure 18 shows that the construction material properties is suitable with the overall design where the timber cladding on the exterior. This innovative double timber frame practically eliminates cold bridges and reduces the overall wall thickness too. In the middle of this structure, the un-framed insulation layer is flexible in thickness, making this solution suitable for various u-value requirements. Additional internal studding inside the vapour barrier is essential. Install electricity and water pipes to the studding without breaking the vapour barrier.

Renewable energy is a socially and politically defined category of energy sources. Renewable energy is generally defined as energy that comes from resources which are continually replenished on a human timescale such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides, waves and geothermal heat. While many renewable energy projects are large-scale, renewable technologies are also suited to rural and remote areas, where energy is often crucial in human development. In this project, I more focus on using the solar energy.

ADVANTAGES:

-High performance rigid thermoset insulation â&#x20AC;&#x201C; thermal conductivity 0.022 W/m.K -Can reduce the cost of related items â&#x20AC;&#x201C; soil removal, service connections -Unaffected by air infiltration -Resistant to the passage of water vapour -Easy to handle and install -Ideal for new build and refurbishment -Nonâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;deleterious material -Manufactured with a blowing agent that has zero ODP and low GWP

After do some research about the solar panel, the Kalzip product is the best fit to the flat. It has been gained approval by the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS)and accreditation by the British Standards Instituteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s (BSI) trusted Kitemark Certificate No. KM 558106. The first reason is because of the roof system which has using the same brand which give the advantage of an easy essambling between the roof (Fig.17) and the solar panel. Furthermore, it also provides a seamless design that does not jar with the surrounding environment or require additional framework or structure ( figure 22 shows the example of using solar cladding on the roof ).

R THE IDEA BEHIND THE DESIGN

INTRODUCTION FORM FOLLOW FUNCTION

The shape of the foyer is form by the movement of each room and it has created into a huge piece of sculpture. This sculpture has given a statement about the society, who they are and what they do. The glass box that cover the building is designed to give a protection to the sculpture (internal wooden wall) and also give an open space for the exhibition, so the people who come can enjoy the beautiful view of the river. Furthermore, this has give a separation between public and private room. In this project, I focus on the main building (the foyer itself, excluding the tutor flat). The construction is divided into two part, the internal wooden sculpture and the external glass box. The building mainly is constructed from timber frame construction,which is lighter and easily constructed.

The building is constructed from two different constrcution .The diagram shows that the internal of the foyer is using the timber frame constructions,a sustainable and durable method for semi domestic small and medium scale structures. On the other hand, the exterior of the building is constructed from steel .

BENEFITS OF TIMBER FRAME:

Sustainable material,which provides a natural form of heat and sound insulation. It is also a light weight material.The diagram beside shows the internal floor section. The timber beam has an area of 140mmx45mm and as a result it can span around 2m.

STEEL FRAME CONSTRUCTION

Compare to timber frame construction, this construction has the advantages of strength, precision and quick assembly. The steel frame construction is used on the exterior to protect the internal timber construction. Furthermore, it also allows the glazing can directly attached on it.In this construction, it uses the H Beam which has an area of 390mmx300mm, so it can give a square profile of the columns and the steel beam span around 3 m between columns, as the maximum of size of glass that manufactures can provide.
