CO-OP RHYTHMIQUE HELIOTROPIC FANTASIES FLUX AND FLOW A TINY TOWER SHIFTING PLANES BREWER PARK AQUATIC CENTRE

CO-OP RHYTHMIQUE. PROJECT: CO-WORK OFFICE BUILDING STUDIO: STRUCTURING ARCHITECTURE CO-ORDINATOR: JANINE DEBANNE WINTER 2017 LOCATION: MONTREAL, QC AUTOCAD, ILLUSTRATOR, PHOTOSHOP

Located in Griffintown, near the mouth of the Historic Lachine Canal, Co-op Rhythmique is the design of a cowork office and lower level café.

Formerly an industrial zone, the project includes the adaptive reuse of the abandoned Wellington Switch Tower. This tower was once responsible for the control of the adjacent bridge, allowing the passage of boats and trains. The project drew inspiration from this bridge, reusing its materials as the new structure of the addition, linking the historic and the new.

The idea of subtraction and insertion played a key role as well, as the removal of the front façade, the insertion of the steel addition, and the subtraction through light wells revealing the structure. These elements created a rhythmic pattern to the building through structure, and exposed the addition as a separate entity from the historic building.

HELIOTROPIC FANTASIES. PROJECT: ADDITION TO THE SCHOOL OF ARCHITECTURE STUDIO: STRUCTURE AND ENCLOSURE CO-ORDINATOR: JOHN COOK FALL 2017 LOCATION: OTTAWA, ON AUTOCAD, ILLUSTRATOR, PHOTOSHOP, RHINO 3D, SKETCHUP

The project entailed an addition to Carleton University’s Azrieli School of Architecture.

To begin, an examination of the current building was undertook, focussing on the current building’s design focus of structure, modularity, and its arrangement around the drafting board. Through this, the concept of transformative spaces became the focal point for the design, allowing the building to grow and adapt with the changing needs of students.

The addition of thin steel columns to the school’s dominating grid organization, allows the suggestion of a framework, and the potential for new spaces.

These columns provide the connection of a scaffolding systems, enabling the literal construction of new spaces within. The spaces created are then further enforced by moving panels, facilitating more private spaces, as well as pin up space.

This idea of transformative spaces is then followed through a heliotropic façade. Frosted panels upon a gridded rail system allows the movement, and layering of panels, shielding the sun as it follows its movement.

FLUX AND FLOW. PROJECT: JUST ADD URBAN STUDIO: BUILDING IN THE CITY CO-ORDINATOR: PETER MANSFIELD WINTER 2018 COLLABORATION WITH: ZOE BURGESS

bioswale system

LOCATION: OTTAWA, ON AUTOCAD, ILLUSTRATOR, PHOTOSHOP, RHINO 3D, SKETCHUP

A redesign for York Plaza, in Ottawa’s Byward Market, this charette was aimed at its revitalization.The plaza design includes several playscape elements, water features, the reintroduction of green space, as well as gathering spaces and busking zones.

Although a tourist district, York Street is vastly car oriented, with parking spaces spanning its entirety.

The first aim was to then reconnect the site to the surrounding pedestrian paths, mainly the Byward’s courtyard system.

Given the historical context of York Plaza as a former water retention area for the Rideau Canal, as well as Ottawa’s background in the lumber industry, the focus of the design then shifted to a wood decked surface, with platformed interventions, and water features, introducing a playscape to the plaza.

Green spaces were then reintroduced with the addition of bioswales, addressing water filtration. The two opposing fountains on either side of the plaza are linked through the flow of the plaza elements, and present two ends to the chain.

A TINY TOWER. PROJECT: TINY HOUSE STUDIO: ARCHITECTURAL TECHNOLOGY CO-ORDINATOR: SCOTT BUCKING FALL 2016 COLLABORATION WITH: ALEXANDER LAMARCHE LOCATION: GATINEAU, QC REVIT, ILLUSTRATOR, PHOTOSHOP

Tasked with designing a tiny house, the concept of environmentally oriented building was further explored through the exploration of passive design.

The decision to build a passive house meant virtually eliminating all energy needs, with any energy required being produced through roof solar panels.

The house was designed to be sunken into the Gatineau Hills, half above grade, and half below, yet still exposed to allow parking and outdoor patio space.

The interior consists of a living space with an adjoining washroom, and kitchen, as well as a mezzanine sleeping space. With the design, the house attempts to blend into the surrounding landscape. *all drawings shown are of personal contribution

SHIFTING PLANES. PROJECT: URBAN STREET BUILDING STUDIO: STRUCTURE AND ENCLOSURE CO-ORDINATOR: JOHN COOK FALL 2017 LOCATION: MONTREAL, QC AUTOCAD, ILLUSTRATOR, PHOTOSHOP, RHINO 3D

Shifting Planes is a hotel design in the historic Plateau-Mont-Royal district of Montreal.

Located on rue Saint-Denis, the goal of the project was to recreate the typologies of the district. By addressing the vernacular architecture of the area, and what is associated with Montreal, such as the rows of exterior stairs and balconies, a rhythm along the street’s shifting façade was discovered.

This idea of a rhythmic street pattern was then explored in the hotel’s façade, with each hotel room representing a module shifted along a plane.

Through these offsets, exterior surfaces are exposed, allowing for the introduction of green walls, and the creation of balconies to orchestrate the same atmosphere found elsewhere in the district.

This orchestration of spaces was then continued in the hotel’s ground level café and bookstore.

Through furniture design, the concept of the façade is replicated by shelving and reading nooks, bringing the concept full circle.

BREWER AQUATIC CENTRE. PROJECT: A SESQUICENTENNIAL POOL STUDIO: STRUCTURING ARCHITECTURE CO-ORDINATOR: JANINE DEBANNE WINTER 2017 LOCATION: OTTAWA, ON AUTOCAD, ILLUSTRATOR, PHOTOSHOP, RHINO 3D

Located in Brewer Park, this aquatic centre is designed to replace the current building on site, allowing for the centre’s expansion.

The current building goes generally unnoticed due to its placement and low profile, to address this, the sweeping form of the new centre signifies the idea of a beacon to its surroundings, while also allowing the required height of the interior diving towers.

The sweeping motion of the massing flows down towards the public green space and retention ponds surrounding the building. Through these retention ponds, which act as stepped plazas when empty, the designated flood zone of Brewer Park is addressed.

The patterning of the retention ponds follows the same design of the skylights located along the roof of the aquatics centre. These skylights provide diffused lighting to the pools below, as well as ventilation.
