SHABIN AT ZELLER COVE MARION COUNTY LAKE, KANSAS Graduate Independent Study | Professor Robert Condia, AIA
Shop + Cabin = Shabin A World Record was set at Marion County Lake for Most Simultaneous Roasting Marshmallows, by 1,272 Marion County residents. If projected, the eighth-of-a-mile long fire line bisects the site. A fire pit is established on this hidden line, fixed in a patio plinth. The shop and cabin are visually connected to this outdoor living space. The Shabin is an empirical realization of a quarter-century appreciation for the Great Outdoors. The design process recalls summer camping trips and memories made in the glow of campfires. Relaxed, wildlife and humans welcomed the night air under moon and starlight. ‘Gourmet camping’ is the concept of the project, suggesting visitors bring only necessary equipment; the Lake provides the experiences. Sited on small secluded lake in Kansas, this retreat will be self-contracted by the designer. Fire Line Projection World Record Marshmallow Roast

SYNTHESIS: A HISTORY LESSON
Above: Sunset Over Zeller Cove Right: Sketch of Vernacular Outbuilding Opposite: Matrix – Program Spaces with Site Offerings
Completed in 1937 under two FDR New Deal Programs, Marion County Lake was constructed by the Civilian Conservation Corps Black Veteran Company #4755. All company men were veterans of World War I. They worked during the day, but at night their lives were enriched through the CCC educational program. Reading, Journalism, Cabinet Making, Orchestra, Checkers, and Archery were just a few of the 40 available courses. This history lesson can be interpreted into the current relationship between lake and cabin activities. 27 schemes were generated through the matrix and scored based on programmatic connections to site offerings. A synthesis of these schemes developed a final program – shop and cabin.

SYNTHESIS: DISTILLED PROGRAM SHOP CABIN
The design synthesis verified two program requirements – a shop and cabin. Each form opens to the patio demarcating the realm of social gathering. The fire pit is the guardian of this realm, celebrating past and future memories of guests. ‘Gourmet camping’ is realized in interfaces through gizmos; a small wood stove, Italian-sized kitchenette, bath and shower fixtures, and fire pit tools. Additionally, there is storage for fishing gear, a canoe, and a pair of mopeds. With the camping necessities provided, guests are free to experience being at the lake.

02 Carl Andre was a catalytic force of Minimalism. His simple stacking of standard building units without mortar celebrated the force of gravity and power of mathematical order. Galleries, which double as light scoops, are carefully stacked in section. Interstitial spaces become temporary galleries. Gallery docents move art in large boxes, operated by a large crane rail which replaces the traditional freight elevator. Visitors enter perpendicular to this zone. The theatrics of how art is moved in the gallery becomes a temporal spectacle.

03 Reading, a rural town of 250, was devastated by an EF3 tornado leaving 50% of the homes destroyed. This Center will bring residents together and introduce revenue through an artist-inresidence program. Learning from the Greensburg tornado and subsequent rebuilding issues, this project suggests a ‘slowing down’ of hasty rebuilding. The proposed program is too large to maintain and will mostly sit unoccupied. Therefore, the community spaces are designed to accommodate a wide range of events. Artists include photographers, painters, and sculptors, whose craft happens outside in the landscape. Modular spaces, housing the artists’ equipment, are packed and sent to Reading where they are plugged into existing sockets. When the artists leave, their work can be shipped across the country to art galleries, e.g., Manhattan, New York.

The Switzerland Consulate is located in downtown Chicago; each level overlooks the activities and life of the north branch of the Chicago River. An existing dock is revitalized into an outdoor gallery space with a background of regular passing tour boats. Completed in eight weeks, this project encapsulated schematic design through working drawings.

RAMP AIAS Freedom by Design
I served as co-Chair of the Freedom by Design Chapter with two faculty advisors and three other architecture students. The ramp replaced an obsolete wheelchair lift, for a fraction of the lift repair cost. I was involved in site visits, field survey and measurements, design charrettes, detail drawings, and fabrication. We developed a structural system of moment-connected guardrail units that could be CNC milled from marine grade plywood. The 120’ ramp was fabricated in fuselage sections and transported to the site for assembly. The design and fabrication team, with generous volunteers, completed the project during a summer.
