As cities become denser, the necessity to build vertically in urban environments is greater than ever before. Traditionally, in the case of mixed used high-rise structures, building vertically meant sacrificing the greenspace usually associated with a suburban site. EXOGEN is a design proposal for a mixed-use high-rise seeking to address that preconceived notion.

Comprised of a central orthogonal tower and an “exoskeleton” of steel tubing, EXOGEN uses the interstitial space between the two components to provided “urban backyards” for the residential, commercial, and recreational spaces housed within it. In addition to providing outdoor spaces that are larger than any balcony, the external steel framework acts as a mediator between the internal spaces and the environment. This mediation is achieved by an arrangement of Plexiglas and solar panels encased withing the steel framework that act as sun shaders and rain screens. The solar panels were employed on panels that received the highest amount of solar radiation.

-MADE IN THE SHADEA Parametric Lumineer Design Spring 2017

S A M S C H A U S T A CA D EM IC P O R T FO L IO 2 0 1 6

In an effort to become more familarized with python scripting within Rhino3D, this lumineer utilized python-generated perforations to control its light distribution. Once generated, the perforations were arranged and laser-cut onto Yupo paper. Five folded shapes were arranged around a central shape which was used a structural element.

#sample attractor point script import rhinoscriptsyntax as rs #allows user to determine size of the array iMax = rs.GetInteger(‘maximum number x’, 50) jMax = rs.GetInteger(‘maximum number y’, 25) #keeps z at 0 for 2D array k = 0 #you need to already have a point created somewhere in rhino space AttractPt = rs.GetObject(‘select attractor point’, rs. filter.point) #loop to create geometry for i in range(iMax): for j in range(jMax): #define x,y,z according to i, j, k x = i*.2 #spacing between columns y = j*.2 #spacing between rows z = k distance = rs.Distance(AttractPt, [x,y,z]) radius = distance/50

Assigned design factors included the use of passive heating/cooling systems in ventilation and solar design, allowing the cabin to be used year-round. In addition, this project aimed to familarize students with construction methods and working drawings. The final design consists of two stacked rectangular volumes that are embed into the hillside and aligned respectively aligned with the hillside and sun orientation. The residence is constructed of reinforced concrete, steel tube columns, and glulam beams. Storefront glazing and cedar siding is utilized to help the residence better relate to its context.

The intent of this project was to design a 800sq.ft. cabin located on a sloping wooded hillside off an existing gravel drive. Given that potential occupants included families on vacation as well as church and school groups, the cabin was required to sleep up to 6 people.

-MELTING CONCRETEA Casted Candle Holder Spring 2017

S A M S C H A U S T A CA D EM IC P O R T FO L IO 2 0 1 6

Another exercise with python scripting within Rhino3D, concrete candle holder utilized raised surface spheres to direct the flow of wax. Once generated, the final form’s surface was offset and manipulated in order to create a mold that could be 3D printed. The mold was 3D printed in two separate pieces so that it could be easily removed once the concrete dried.

#2D Array on a Surface import rhinoscriptsyntax as rs uInt = 20 vInt = 30 #Get surface srfGUID = rs.GetObject(‘select surface’, rs.filter. surface) #Surface domain uDomain = rs.SurfaceDomain(srfGUID, 0) vDomain = rs.SurfaceDomain(srfGUID, 1) #Step uStep = (uDomain[1] - uDomain[0]) / uInt vStep = (vDomain[1] - vDomain[0]) / vInt

In this project, the focus was on how the theory of object oriented ontology could be applied to the relation of primitive shapes as a way of finding advantages in programmatic layout.

With the assigned program being a peforming arts center, the intent was to create an accessible public space for community residents to get involved in theatre, fine arts, and music. I began by exploring the results of intersecting cubes and spheres, with an analytical focus being applied to the intersection of the shapes. The final form utilizes the intersections created by 3 deformed spheres and 7 cubes to create a network of interconnected theatre, fine arts, and musical spaces. While the cubes act as spatial organizers, light wells and relators to the surrounding context, the deformed spheres provide view orchestration, a layered transition from interior to exterior, as well as a create a privacy gradient.

-ACRYLIC ARTIFACTSEXPLORATION

S A M S C H A U S T A CA D EM IC P O R T FO L IO 2 0 1 6

This exploration attempts to balance several design criteria, including material efficiency, cut-sheet optimization, python scripting, and tool-making. What began as a class assigned design problem, quickly turned into a semester long obsession. The orignal task was to suspend 2 MDF boards in a fixed position using only one other material. I chose to use acrylic for its ability to occupy three dimensions once bent yet still consist of a single sheet. After comletion, I continued to experiment with acrylic, and design and built my own bending tools in order to make more accurate bends. After numerous material tests, I decided to use what I had learned and design chairs that started as a flat sheet of acrylic and then could be cut and bent into shape. With the aid of a python script to help with form finding, I designed three chairs based off of different types of bends.

Transportable Disaster Relief Housing Arch 401 (Fall 2016) Kevin Klinger

S A M S C H A U S T A CA D EM IC P O R T FO L IO 2 0 1 6

In(TENT) is a design proposal for a long-term disaster-relief situation. It was designed to be pertinent to both the responders and victims of the two most deadly natural disasters: floods and droughts. I began by researching the plethora of existing disasterrelief housing designs and determining their potential flaws. I found existing designs either lack structural longevity or take too long to assemble.

Existing design solutions that are easily transportable in mass qauntities and quickly assembled are typically constructed of materials that were extremely lightweight and not durable. On the other hand, existing design solutions that were durable and structurally stable tended to take an unreasonable amount of time to assemble. In my mind, if something takes longer than a couple minutes to assemble, it is not viable when hundreds or thousands of people have been displaced. In(TENT) aims to combat these issues by offering a solution that is both erected quickly and durable for a long period of time. This is made possible by In(TENT)â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability to; be massed shipped on semitrucks, be assmebled in minutes by a small crew, sustain occupants off integrated water and PV systems.
