THE PROJECT: ARCHITECTURE FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE
THE SOCIAL INJUSTICE is the need for affordable healthcare. The people of South Mountain are independent people, yet not all have the opportunity be self-reliant when it comes to healthcare. With 1 in 9 adults report practicing alternative medicine, it is a wonder why more facilities do not exist to support impoverished communities to provide cheaper healthcare.
THE CAMPUS sustains itself within the South Mountain neighborhood by incorporating a melting-pot of programs to bring in people with different purposes and potential investment streams.
THE COMMUNITY of South Mountain Village takes pride in its AGRICULTURAL ROOTS. Nursuries and Feed Farms are located all throughout the area, yet knowledge of growing in the desert as a whole is being LOST for the general public. However, this community knows how to grow in the harsh desert environment of Arizona. Why not use this to our advantage?
REGROWTH is an alternative medicine growth and educational facility that addresses the community’s needs of indepedence with cheaper, do it yourself healthcare.

THE SITE is located in a floodzone near CENTER & BASELINE. A flat piece of land that occasionally FLOODS proved to be the first challenge, so a large retention basin becomes the main growing area. Program is then inserted as a series of smaller buildings to spread the large site and promote dynamic movement. The second challenge was to protect the CANAL LIFE and activity that exists. Ample shed-like structures shade the majority of the site for the pedrestrians, cyclists, and animal enthusiasts.

The studio project is not a Liber.Teca as a collection of books. It is a collection of “freespaces” for social justice. As the above quote suggests the Liber.Teca has become (and used to be) a place that serves the needs of the people and communities on multiple levels and in multiple ways. The Liber.Teca studio will delve into questions of freedom, access, inclusion, equity and social justice in freespaces today. Over the course of the semester and guided with specific assignments students will devise architectural programs and projects that explore and develop the space of a Liber.Teca phase 1 | information

The center for Business Development and Advancement of Skills addresses social injustice within the community surrounding the site: economic disenfranchisement. bDAS supports the neighborhood’s existing culture with dual language business development programs that empower community members to take ownership over their neighborhood. The community should be benefit directly from outside investment, like the light rail expansion, instead of being intimidated. Through economic empowerment marginalized communities will become more sustainable, and will achieve long-term socio-economic integration within the larger community.

CASE STUDY PRECEDENTS Red Bull Music Academy(top-right):
The Madrid City Council decided to turn this space into a warehouse for contemporary artistic creation. The original structure of the building was kept intact from the exterior to the columns and the interior was designed to be flexible and reversible. The warehouse was filled with makeshift huts and a wilderness of plants, making it act like an ecosystem in itself. The structure is proportionate to the human scale with functions distributed in an organic manner. In a way the Redbull Music Academy is making this art accessible to the public by going to several locations around the globe. Refugee Crisis Art installation- Ai Wei Wei(bottom-right): Life jacket installation was strategically placed in time for the Cinema for Peace gala to address the refugee crisis and the many lives that are affected by it.
The education campus sits quietly in the heart of South Phoenix, marked by the diversity within the community. The campus tries to introduce an inclusive environment by offering resources that will empower individuals to reach new heights in their education, regardless of age, gender, race, etc. The forms of the buildings are reminiscent of the inner struggles that each of us faces on a daily basis. The walls both surround and enclose the user, leading them to seek an escape. The canopy in turn filters light to encourage the user to keep moving forward to grander spaces. The use of light is then the primary tool by which this project draws people in, activating this site, the canal, and the community as a whole. Thus creating a safe passage away from the challenges of reality.

“Education is considered as an act of moulding peoples lives just like clay”- anonymous. Here we are trying to shape the lives of the community by providing the necessities for their growth hence the openness and fluidity became the driving force for our building plans. The process of developing the building form is derived from this act of moulding clay, keeping the fluid and organic nature of the campus. The campus consists of functions like- classrooms, informal open-air theater, formal gallery/assembly space, daycare, cafe, book store and canal-front promenade. Assembly 1/32” = 1’-0”

COMMUNITY ARTS CENTER The South Phoenix Community Arts Center’s program provide quality art experiences for people of all ages, Race, Ethnicity and backgrounds. Improving skills through learning & teaching Arts and passing it on. Art of the American Southwest is the visual arts of the Southwestern United States. These arts forms include architecture, ceramics, drawing, painting, photography, sculpture, printmaking, and other media, ranging from the ancient past to the contemporary arts like graffiti art of the present day. These programs are driven by the belief that the arts are a critical component to a healthy and active community. We have identified that there is no attention to art in the community. Therefore, taking Arts as a medium to engage the community socially, through the community spaces, with art works acting as a backdrop for people.
When connecting the Fernando Botero Library Park and the art piece, Politicians Debating Global Warming, you can find a similarity within the initial misinterpretation of both of their scales. At first glance, the library appears to be have a very strong and heavy presence, in comparison to its site context. Through, when it is experienced from the interior the building is actually very porous, filled with natural light, and connected to its surroundings through large views of the landscape. The initial misinterpretation is connected to the art piece as contrast. The art piece is often misinter preted as being life size, when, in reality, it is very small.

The Building uses light, shade and shadow to create a peaceful atmospheric composition of the interior of the building. All spaces are accentuated by light that descends through light wells from skylights in the roof. Vertical perforations in the building also provide visual connections between the different levels revealing a system of spatial relationships that enrich the experience through the spaces and enhance the strong relationship with the landscape.
The concept is to create built structure that interacts with the built environment and people. The result is configuration of various open, semi open and green spaces. The structure are semi open spaces without solid walls ensuring maxium natural daylight and ventilation. The south facing walls are solid to block harsh summer heat avoiding heat island effect. Use of bridge to connect community directly to the gathering spaces.

Baseline Mélange Social Justice through Recreation and Community Phoenix, Arizona The Baseline Mélange offers the South Phoenix community a space to bridge athletic and social activity. In a community with economic, ethnic, and linguistic diversity, this space offers unity. The program consists of large focal dance spaces and indoor and outdoor pools. Dance and swim serve as equalizers that foster physical activity while stripping away social barriers. These large focal spaces act as public plazas for both the design and community. Smaller, support programmatic elements surround. Just as swim and dance strip away social and economic status, unnecessary material is stripped away from the design. The STATISTICS exposed structure and abundance of glazingDEMOGRAPHIC offers a sense of stripped-down transparency and visual connection between the community and the facility.

Marinilla Educational Park, Antioquia, Colombia, El Equipo de Mazzanti 2016 an exploration of the case study’s structure was conducted. two and three dimensional drawings were created to document and understand the structural elements of the building, along with an analysis of the social justice impact of the project
the structural drawings from the case study were placed at scale onto the South Phoenix site. the structure was treated like a pattern, repeated onto the site. multiple iterations were produced in order to create a composition
Step 3 Freedom is Back, Phoenix, Arizona, Fortoul Brothers, 2018 a study was conducted of an art piece, and its relation to social justice. the art piece was then overlay onto the site and structure to create another composition. again, multiple iterations were conducted.
Step 4 the final composition was manipulated in three dimensions. this final manipulation ultimately became the starting point for the Baseline Mélange design.

BARRIO
G R O U N D
after participating in a fashion event where i had the opportunity to be an amateur fashion designer for a short period of time, i learned that despite the dedication, hard work and countless hours of work, what mattered most was getting our model out on the runway in the outfit we worked so hard to produce. because of this, i designed barrio fabric around just that- the runway. With the runway comes movement and I focused on the idea of the movement that happens within the barrio through events that bring the community together. The barrio has such a strong history and sense of community, so much so that i wanted to bring that energy to barrio fabric through the idea of fashion shows, education and mentoring. I used the existing door as a representation of this by using it as a prop for models to walk through during the runway show and using it as a direct reach out to the barrio, welcoming in the entire community to come join this movement.

Barrio FABRIC is a fashion incubator reviving the spirit of “corner markets” that once anchored the community, bringing together diverse cultures, folklore and works of art. This multifunc�onal adaptive space will provide a nurturing, collaborative environment for designers and brands to design, manufacture and promote apparel, and unite the community by offering programs and resources for vocational training, arts, nutrition, health, kid’s camps, movie nights, concerts and a host of other community events. Barrio FABRIC will empower disenfranchised members of the community, who in turn will empower designers with their patronage. As fashion designer Marc Jacobs observed, “Clothes mean nothing until someone lives in them.” Restored adobe structures on the corner of Kennedy Street and Convent Avenue provide a gateway through �me as corridors extend the streets into the bazaar. The street level studios are open to the lower level runway to celebrate events from all levels, providing three-dimensional opportuni�es for interaction. Courtyards and grand staircases allow the fashion show to expand onto the public sidewalks where gourmet food trucks line the streets, transforming the show into a true “community” event.

FABRIC TUCSON FROM BIRTH WE ARE GIVEN TWO LABELS OF IDENTITY NAME AND GENDER. FROM THOSE LABELS OUR FUTURE BEGINS TO BE SHAPPED AND CHALLENGED. THE SAME NOTIONS APPLIES TO ARCHITECTURE WHEN WE BEGIN TO LABEL AND DEFINE SPACES BEFORE WE EVEN OCCUPY THEM. WHAT IF WE ADDRESS FASHION, GENDER AND ARCHITECTURE FROM AN ANDROGYNOUS POINT OF VIEW? I THEREFORE QUESTION ARCHITECTURALLY WHAT AN ANDROGYNOUS BUILDING SHOULD LOOK LIKE AND PROPOSE TO EXPLORE WHAT IS MASCULINE AND FEMININE FORM AND MEANING AS IT PERTAINS TO THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT. FABRIC TUSCON, A FASHION INCUBATOR LOCATED IN THE BARRIO LIBRE NEIGHBORHOOD, IS THE FIRST FORM TO BEGIN EXPLORE THIS CONCEPT. FABRIC’S MISSION EMPOWERS AND CULTIVATES INDIVIDUALITY FOR UP AND COMING FASHION DESIGNERS. THEREFORE, THIS FORM IS MERELY AN ATTEMPT TO EXPLORE THE DEPTH AND BREATH OF ANDROGYNOUS ARCHITECTURE AS A BUILT ENVIRONMENT TO ALLOW FOR THE INDIVIDUALITY OF CREATIVES TO STEP FORWARD.

Each unit provides thermal cooling temperatures nearly 40 degrees lower than the surface. When violent storms occur, each housing unit collects runoff water.
FARMING
For every 3 units there is a farming unit below, and is supported by disused (or grey) housing unit water drained from above.
With a runoff water conservation system and farming strategy for ample food, the community makes an immense impact inside South Mountain while preserving a romanticized aesthetic surface native to the Arizona Landscape.

(alt. phx) this project is a rejection of mass consumer culture; it instead idealizes the return to nature. it is a city located outside of phoenix in 2070 by saguaro lake. the units are designed to house eight individuals in order to support communal living. the project features a vibrant roofscape with areas for gathering and gardening. the housing bar is located in the upper levels of the city to allow for light and air and the other programming of the city (entertainment, infrastructure, etc.) falls below. while the exoskeleton of the building is primarily concrete, the interior is made out of wood so as to be customized by the users. the shell remains, while the interior is in flux.

Olusosun Stadium
This project is located on the Olusosun landfill which is located in Lagos, Nigeria. Current problems in the site and community around it are flooding and the accumulation of trash. As an atempt to solve these problems the topography is created with a mix of trash and dirt that is currently on the site. When it rains, the water will be directed by the topography in to several collection areas. Areas that should not be flooded are at a higer level. This keeps programs out of the water and uses the materials that are found on the site in a productive way.
This stadium will be an integral part of the community with many needs and activities for people. Accessibility to an open rooftop with plenty of room for activities and circulation and the use of many foors as a community center invites the public in.

Structures like the parking structure and the stadium itself can have the ability to change in the future as the needs of the people change. Parking structures can become housing and the stadium can come apart and become a new building for the community center and other future purpuses. The stadium is open to the park itself on one side to signify that this is not just a pri- vately owned building but rather a place that embraces the public and thrives on the movement and activity of the public.The circulation of the site and the open roof of the stadium serve as areas that can be used as a public market on days when there is not a game happening.

The Salt Cedar Tree surrounds the river bank from beginning to end. The trees were initally planted to help the erosion of the river bank, but instead, the tree did the opposite- eroded the river bank and killed off the existing vegetation. PROPOSAL: The eroding of the river bank by the Salt Cedar Trees will create a set of archipelagos that future Phoenicians will claim. Monsoons will worsen, and as a result, city dwellers will develop their own farming seasons: flood, sow, and harvest.

The Cluster
Proposed 9 unit w/attached garage live/work housing project located in Mesa, Arizona. Being that the location was surrounded by 3 undeveloped lots and mostly single residence development, the concept was to create flexible housing to meet the need of current and future demographic in Mesa, Arizona and to encourage a visible sense of community by having the circulation of the project pull you to the street.

LEVELS
Levels is a multi-family residential housing project located in Tempe, AZ that creates spatial clarity through changing elevation in the site and on each floor. The rise and fall of each plane allows for multiple uses of a single space. The central community area encourages users to share outdoor space, though the constant change in elevation is capable of supporting multiple activities. The 8 unit housing project is oriented to the North with minimal openings on the East, West, and South faces to due to the intense sun exposure within the state. Each unit includes custom bedroom furniture that continues to integrate spatial diversity within the project.

LIGHT DISSIPATION
Located on 7th Street and East Windsor Avenue, just North of Downtown Phoenix, Windsor House has carved itself into the fabric of the surrounding community. The site is home to eight, two thousand square foot single family units perfect for the average 3 to 4 person family. Each unit is a partially subterranean space that provides an escape from the harsh heat of the Southwest,
each under a habitable dome roof. Windsor House explores the idea of a free-flowing space where landscape and structure are integrated seamlessly. The meaning of dwelling gives way to a sense of belonging, as an individual and as a community. At Windsor House, there is an emphasis on community which is possible by providing a space
ADE 321: Fall 2018 Architectural Studio I
where every square foot is habitable. Those who call this unique complex home can relax in their private space flooded with natural light from the transparent facade or enjoy the fresh air on their grassy roof. The space also features a natural barrier to the East which provides a separation from the surrounding area while still fostering a free flowing atmosphere.
