Matias Del Campo LOCATION:
2116 Market St, Philadelphia DESIGN TEAM:
Yuze Deng | Mingda Guo Yiliang Shao | Ruochen Gao As architecture not only provides shelter and accommodation but also establishes the extension for human’s pursuit of visuality and functionality, we create decorated façades to bridge the cityscape and the interior with aesthetics and practicability. Those ornamentations tend to be systematic and organic to maximize the two features mentioned above. A façades type, Brise Soleil Toujours, filters the sunlight and ALWAYS casts decent shadows, satisfying the demand of shading. While we incorporate the visual complexity within the basic functions, we are building a piece of breathing and attractive architecture. This project is to design a mixeduse landmark for Philadelphia’s riverbank with inspiring public space and an energy-saving building system.
This project is located on the south side of market street in Philadelphia. It is adjacent to the fire station on the east side, the Mutter Museum with the theme of human skeletons on the south side, the narrow Memorial Park with three small monuments on the west side, and the hotel and apartment on the north side. Market Street is the main street, while Ludlow street on the south side will be transformed into a pedestrian street with the completion of the project, thus strengthening the relationship between the project and the exhibition of the Mutter Museum.

MASSING GEOMETRY
SITE MAP
STREET VIEW RENDER
In order to design the overall geometry, we created a boulder base on the site context. On the north side (Market St), the adjacent buildings’ height is getting lower and lower toward the west. Our boulder followed the trend of the skyline and formed a shape that is higher on the east side and is lower on the west. On the northside of our site, we designed a ramping entrance which is leading to both the upper-level lobby and the underground sunken plaza. Considering that our site is only a few feet next to the Mutter Museum, we have decided to make a portion of spaces in our design as the expansion of the Mutter Museum. To create a much closer connection between the two sites, we designed a sky bridge that connects the lobby to the north facade of the Mutter Museum. The bridge extended the circulation from the museum and it led the viewer further into the exhibition space within our building. Also, there is another car entrance on the facade next to the fire station on the east side leading the vehicles to the lower basement level parking garage. The programs are distributed based on the sun path study we did and traffic conditions around the site. This project is designed as a mixed-use building with offices, residential areas, and the expansion space of the museum. Vertically, the building is divided by the atrium in the center, which created a natural circulation around the opening. Horizontally, we have the sunken plaza going through the building from north to south in the lower level. The museum expansion is mainly distributed on the lower 2 levels around the lobby, all the small exhibition spaces are stitched with either ramps or stairs. The north facade is more exposed to the traffic, so we designed the office spaces mainly to the north since the traffic noise will affect the office area less. Living spaces are mainly oriented on the upper south side which is a little far away from the market street and much quieter.

CROSS SECTION
The sections are mainly showing the orientation of different spaces and the circulations that are connecting them together. On the lower three levels, public areas and plaza expanded the museum’s exhibition and provided more open areas for larger gatherings and field trips. The large shaded area invites passengers to spend time there. To create an actively developed landscape, the portion of the underground courtyard along the ramp has been designed with lawns and a small water feature. The ramp into the courtyard on the south side is flanked by large steps for outdoor exhibits. In contrast with the super complex façade, the atrium in public areas shows the geometry concisely. In this way, the atrium becomes a good background for the large sculptures or animal skeletons exhibited in the atrium. Going up, the working and living are clearly separated into two chunks. To enhance the functionality of the atrium we also designed several sky bridges through the middle which connect the working and living areas. As an echo to the grid on the facade, the handrails on the bridges are composed of hexagonal and triangular panels.
CHUNK
CROSS SECTION
The atrium and semi-underground provide a very good ventilation effect. When it is needed, the windows on the top and on the entrances to the building and underground garden can be opened up and cool the whole building. But in the winter, most of the windows will be closed to reduce thermal losses. The window in the middle of the 1st floor also allows people in the courtyard to look up and be attracted by the heteromorphic atrium.

The façade is designed to create a shading system that combines aesthetic and functional architectural qualities through a digital design approach. The thickness of the façade components with their unique twist enables the interior to have sufficient energy-saving shading. Each unit consists of two columns entwined together, which diverge from the bottom, then rise, and finally rejoin at the top. Each column itself consists of four smaller ones, which are interconnected together. The connections between the smaller ones ensure the stability of the column structure, and the connections between the columns form the overall structure. Those in two scales together contribute to the aesthetic qualities of the project. In order to facilitate the construction with the robot arm, we divided one unit into six modules for printing. FACADE STRUCTURE EXPLODED DIAGRAM
The whole module is connected to the vertical mullion using a specially designed key-type connector. The notches of the key-type assembly correspond to the upper and lower modules, ensuring complete interlocking between the connector and the module. The connector itself is designed with a tolerance in the XYZ axis to ensure that there is no cumulative error during installation that could cause failure. The X-axis is used to control the distance of the component from the façade, and the Y/Z-direction moves in the plane where the façade is located to ensure the degree of accuracy during construction. Different thicknesses were set to achieve different shading effects for various interior functions, locations, and directions. For instance, for the apartment located in the southern part, we used thicker modules to ensure the effectiveness of shading; for the office space located in the northern part, we decided to design a

Masoud Akbarzadeh LOCATION:
3400 Grays Ferry Ave, Philadelphia For thousands of years, wood has been an important building material for its abundance, strength, and sustainable nature (Ahmed and Arocho, 2020). Engineered mass timber such as glue-laminated, cross-laminated timber, I-Joist, etc., include a range of products manufactured by binding or fixing the strands, fibers, veneers, or boards of wood by applying adhesives to form composite materials. These products were developed to utilize material more efficiently with respect to the inherent variability (anisotropic properties) of wood systems (Mallo and Espinoza, 2014). The main objective of these engineered products was to maximize durability, strength, and a high level of consistency in the material properties. Designing mid-rise, mass-timber buildings requires utilizing specific structures. In fact, this project concentrated on the development of non-conventional architectural structures that can respond to the needs of such buildings and programs more succinct than the conventional solutions.
MATRIX
SITE MAP
This project aims to design a technology center office building for research and innovative purposes. The site is located at 3400 Grays Ferry Ave, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Thinking of the possibilities of mid-rise timber structures, I took the first step in the form-finding process. Above are the forms generated by Polyframe, those are the elements that will be combined into basic structural unit forms that are showing in the topology modification studies. The intention is to create a unit that can be duplicated and connected in all 6 direction(front, back, left, right, bottom, top). By linking different unit into one form, the void areas in between can be modified to create different spaces that are suitable for different function needs. The structural unit aggregations is showing the overlook of the combined form for a single layer of the whole building.

After the form finding process, the next step is to take the output form and apply the materialization. I have tired many different materialization strategies, including weaving, coffering and waffle structure and finally decided to use stacking, a strategy that allows longer span and more possibility to layering up our basic units as needed. The skeleton model is showing the timber columns and floor structure along with the tension compression combined system as the outer building skin.

Having the stacking idea ready, we took a typical column unit and applied materialization using Grasshopper computational method, above is a diagram showing the basic algorithm. I used the mesh-cell that has been generated by Polyframe as the input, first contoured the column to have the basic panel layers. Next, adding domains to create the thickness gradient effect for the layering panels. Then cut the column into quarter portions, inverse the domain numbers to have the invert thickness gradient and intersect 4 portions back together. To make the structure stable, some additional structural plate are added in between the intervals. Finally, think of to utilized the column as vertical circulation,we took the hexagon shape of the column and added the spiral stair along the shape as well. WOOD STRUCTURE SKELETON RENDER

Yuze Deng | Diyang Shen Since the New York City Department of Sanitation is right on the west side of the site, the garbage truck facilities nearby caught our attention. We found that the context of recycling glass was interesting, and our goal is to reflect this concept in the project and introduce it into a new aesthetic that fits in the urban context. The main structure of the building is formed by intersections of planes with different densities. The facade design corresponds to this new sense of aesthetics that we designed for large storage facilities into the future, the building becomes an aggregation of recycled bottled-green glass with thick glass blocks infilling the facade patterns. Overall, the project exists as one monolithic object sharing similar industrial attributes with the surrounding urban context.
FIRST LEVEL PLAN
SOUTH FACADE RENDER
TYPICAL OFFICE LEVEL PLAN
We first studied the texture of the city grid, extended, and multiplied the grid line throughout the site. To develop, we further treat volumes with various densities that fulfill the entire model form, therefore planes at various angles and scales intersect each other to achieve a more complex form than what appears on the exterior. There are bifurcated branches intersecting, penetrating throughout the density. The slopes in the bifurcations act as circulations for both human and logistics, the flat parts serve as offices and equipment rooms. The bifurcated volumes also wrap around the corner in a fluid movement. There are mainly three systems inside: carved out voids as public areas for people to gather, bifurcated volumes form office areas, and thickened surfaces of the density for conveyors to run through. Figures that extend from the external facade into the internal then continue to the other side become office areas. In carved out open voids, lattices form a lighter flexible space for people to gather with logistics going around in contrast with the densities.

INFINITE TOMBSTONE Lighthouse Advance Studio | 2019 Fall INSTRUCTOR:
Clark Thenhaus LOCATION:
Designed site, island Designed as a beacon to navigate, the lighthouse has been portrayed as a symbolic icon that marks the boundary between two worlds: the known and the unknown. Lighthouse can be a beacon of hope that symbolizes the joy of homecoming after adventurous journeys or bold explorations from the outside world. However, it may also become a terrifying geometric shape that serves as a tombstone of infinity when people are forced to make a risky plunge into the unknown future or to return to the boredom of a mundane life. The lighthouse has been widely portrayed in many art forms, including films, literature, and photography, but I approach the lighthouse project from the architectural perspective. In this cover page design, I reduce the lighthouse to an image of a bleak monument in an unpromising open sea that radiates a sense of precarity. In the next page, I will demonstrate the actual steps of crafting a model.page, I will demonstrate the actual steps of crafting a model.

Architectural design should transmit ideas while still taking into consideration functionality and construction. On the one hand, I intend to interpret the lighthouse as a tombstone of infinity, and therefore designed it to be 400 feet tall. On the other hand, to make it a plausible project in reality, I have kept its recognizable exterior with a tower shape and designed its interior infrastructure to create a living condition that is comfortable enough for the lighthouse staff.

PLAY LIVING AFFORDABLE HOUSING B.Arch Studio 4 | 2018 Fall INSTRUCTOR:
Neal Schwartz LOCATION:
7th st and Folsom st, San Francisco.
Single parent families occupy a large amount of population in the city of San Francisco. Single income limits their ability to pay house rent. Especially for those who have children under 6 years old. Single parents have to work during the day and leave their children to daycare centers. Sharing housing provides a shared household community where people who live together may provide daycare for each other’s children. On the other hand, the project also brings in college students as part of the community and offers them opportunities to work as daycare teachers in order to give them a discount on the house rent. This type of housing intends to maximize the sharing of resources within a community.
San Francisco, SOMA district is a highly focused business area but surrounded by numbers of lower income family communities. People comes from all around the world trying to seek opportunities in this condense city, but lack of incomes forced them to gather together around this area

HIGHLINE HOTEL Urban hotel B.arch Studio 3 | 2018 Spring INSTRUCTOR:
Peter Anderson LOCATION:
509 W 28th Street, New York
The design of Highline Hotel was challenging because of its location in the densely populated and constructed urban area of New York City. As a response, I would like to create a relaxing atmosphere inside the hotel building to fulfill its functions for residents to sleep, dine, and have fun. Meanwhile, I also designed the exterior of the building to make it blend with adjacent buildings while still stand out as something beautiful to look at.
Clinton, area full of food market and restaurants.
