1 Vallco Town Center Rafael Viñoly Architects Cupertino, CA “The vision is to revitalize the aging and outdated indoor mall into a vibrant, sustainable and walkable Town Center neighborhood and community gateway with a mix of retail, entertainment, recreation, employment, housing, and open space, all integrated with a publicly accessible green roof.” Supervisor: Craig Bachellor

VALLCO TOWN CENTER The Vallco Town Center site is located on the 50.82-acre Vallco Shopping Mall property in Cupertino, California in the heart of Silicon Valley. Situated between Interstate 280 and Stevens Creek Boulevard and on both sides of North Wolfe Road, the Vallco Mall was once a thriving regional covered mall but has been in continuous decline for more than 30 years and is currently largely vacant. With its convenient proximity to several arterial highways and Main Street Cupertino, the revitalization of Vallco represents a significant change to the urban fabric that is desperately needed for this dynamic and growing community. The core public focus of the Vallco Town Center will be the two plazas, one located

on each side of North Wolfe Road. Each plaza will be a focal point for community events and serve as gathering spaces in support of the surrounding mixed uses. The design divides the town center into 11 building blocks. Block 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, and 10 are comprised of retail, residential, and parking. These 7 residential blocks in total provide 2,402 residential units which are the key focus of this project to provide affordable housing and help alleviate the housing crisis in the Cupertino community. Among the residential blocks, blocks 1, 2, and 4 each houses an anchor retail space along Stevens Creek Boulevard. Block 6, 7, 8, and 11 are comprised of offices,

each including four stories of offices below the green roof and one story of office terrace above the green roof. Flowing over the 11 building blocks will be an approximately 30-acre rooftop landscape that weaves together social and natural systems to create a unique green amenity in Cupertino. Vallco Town center is to be constructed in 3 phases. Phase 1 includes blocks 1, 2, and 4 along Stevens Creek Boulevard. Phase 2 includes blocks 3, 5, 6, and phase 3 includes blocks 7 to 11. By the end of 2020, the team has started Construction Documents for phase 1 blocks.

Stevens Creek Boulevard Anchor Stores Elevation Every community aspires to have a physical place that embodies the values of its past and projects the aspirations for its future. Consistent with the City of Cupertino Community Vision 2040 General Plan, the vision for the Vallco Town Center is to revitalize the aging and outdated indoor mall into a vibrant, sustainable, walkable Town Center neighborhood and community gateway with a mix of retail, dining, entertainment, recreation, employment, housing, and open space, all integrated with an innovative and publicly accessible green roof.

These multi-level spaces animate the Town Center with a line-up of leisure, fashion, technology flagship, and other stores that epitomize the lifestyle of Cupertino. To identify it as a place that celebrates recreational, wellness, and casual activities, town squares punctuate the street grid, providing animated public plazas with subtle references to the region’s agricultural history. The project employs a traditional neighborhood layout that connects the community (internally

and externally) via pedestrian and bike-friendly streets, squares/plazas, trails, and pathways. The circulation space will have a rich texture of paving patterns, lighting, public art, street furniture, and outdoor gathering spaces. The streetscape will incorporate clear wayfinding and access to and from the surrounding streets, plazas, parks, and trails, building green roofs, and parking garages. The majority of the 2,402 residential units will be located at-grade and above ground-floor retail and other active uses, along with a portion that will be in buildings

supporting services. Each of the office buildings has a door that sits atop the green roof with direct access to roof level amenities and activity spaces.

Class-A office space will provide state of the art, efficient, sustainable, and flexible space for a range of users. Office entrances and lobbies will be located at ground level facing the eastern plaza and adjacent streets. Ground floor uses may also include a variety of office amenities, residential townhomes, retail, or commercial

Flowing over the Town Center will be an approximately 30-acre rooftop landscape that weaves together social and natural systems to create a unique green amenity in Cupertino. Recognizing an eternal human need for nature, this elevated landscape provides places for residents and visitors to be immersed in the

representative landscapes of Santa Clara Valley while providing an uninterrupted visual connection to the surrounding mountain ranges of the San Francisco Bay. This rooftop environment will host a diverse set of programmatic uses, including public spaces for community gatherings, a children’s playground, and other intimate spaces for thought and relaxation, using native planting areas that provide habitat for local flora and fauna that will be drought tolerant and climate responsive.

PROJECT STRUCTURE AND BIM MANAGEMENT The entire Cupertino team works in Revit for the project and the team makes use of a very detailed and efficient way to manage the models of 11 building blocks, 2 public plazas, a green roof, site, below-grade parking, and foundation. The BIM structure separates the models into two categories, one solely for modeling and one for drawing production. With this, the 20-people team can work in Revit smoothly without clashing with other people. I have worked extensively in all model files and have gained a deep understanding of the entire project and the BIM management process.

Detail Files

Modeling files are solely used to model the project and are linked into each block container file. Each building block is divided into three files, one for structure, one for fit-outs, and one for enclosures. This allows maximum flexibility for multiple people to work on the same building.

Detail files are used to produce detail sheets that serve the entire project. The residential unit file contains all the typical unit models and floor plans for the 2,402 units in the project. This file can be loaded into each fit-out file to populate the residential buildings with unit layouts. 13

DESIGN DEVELOPMENT 100% PACKAGE The team submitted 100% Design Development package on August 31, 2020 During Design Development, there have been many iterations of design updates incorporating perspectives from various stakeholders through many client meetings. The team has gone through an efficient process to update the Revit models and produce clear materials for each client presentation. After a drastic design update in August, the team finished 100% Design Development report for pricing and officially

14 Rafael Viñoly Architects | 2021

started Construction Documents for phase 1 blocks and basement. I have worked extensively on all aspects of the project during the Design Development phase. I have updated models for all 11 blocks, prepared building plans, sections, and elevations. I have also worked on room schedules, area reports, and presentation materials for client meetings.

Block 2 Street Level Life Safety Plan

CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS The team is currently working on CD drawings for all blocks and coordinating details with consultants. As the project entered the Construction Documents phase, the team began to develop all blocks in detail and coordinate with consultants on various aspects. Being the person leading residential Blocks 9/10, I started to participate in weekly coordination meetings with structural and MEP consultants. I need to apply the existing solutions developed for other Phase 1 blocks to similar problems in the two Phase 3 blocks. More importantly, I need to

20 Rafael Viñoly Architects | 2021

identify unique conditions in Blocks 9/10 and coordinate with our consultants to resolve them. It has gained me a crucial experience of the interdisciplinary integration process. Apart from working on Blocks 9/10, I also led the production of life safety plans and egress calculations for all residential blocks. I first need to clarify and establish rules for calculations and area measurements. To do so, I prepared draft area plans and tables to discuss with our

code consultant. After several iterations, I set up a clear set of guidelines to follow for our life safety drawings. For our 50% CD progress set issued in October 2021, I led a small team of 3 to finish all life safety drawings of three Phase 1 blocks. The drawings and tables shown on this page are from the progress set mentioned above.

AREA SUMMARY - SB 35 COMPLIANCE 3.1 Area Summary One important aspect of the Vallco Town Center project is its compliance with Area California Senate Bill 35 requirements. To be Current Project Summary compliant, At least 2/3 of the proposed development’s square footage must be designated for residential. For this purpose, the team has closely monitored the areas of the project as the design evolved. Also, to help the client to meet their pro forma financial goals, the team has prepared detailed area reports along the way. I have been in charge of preparing area plans and helped to monitor the project areas in Revit.

2 Saddleback College ATAS Building HGA Los Angeles | 2018 Summer Professional Competition Supervisors: Matthew Austin John Frane Kaveh Amirdelfan

24 HGA Los Angeles | 2018

Right 1/16” Presentation Model

SADDLEBACK COLLEGE ATAS BUILDING A new Advanced Technology and Applied Science Building connecting the existing campus to nature.

Extending the Campus The proposed ATAS extends the established campus framework. The three-spoke form unifies the building program and allows campus circulation to flow toward the arroyo or converge into the heart of the new ATAS. Extending from the new shared ATAS central courtyard, the building form directs movement and views eastward to the arroyo and vistas beyond. A natural pathway, the Arroyo Axis, winds along the southern edge, transitioning from programmed terrace spaces to the sports fields to the south. The proposed design connects the new ATAS with the established campus with an open amphitheater which gently slopes towards to the central courtyard. This also mitigates the drastic change in elevation from the existing campus and the new ATAS site and creates a planted barrier from the public road. At the same time, the amphitheater provides an open outdoor area for gatherings and activities and connects with the natural pathway to the Arroyo Canyon at the south.

STUYVESANT TOWN | 2037 The evolution of a WeWork/WeLive housing model from 2017 to 2037 through the eyes of Anita Miller. “Back in 2017, the country was a restless place filled with young people eager to make their marks in the world. It was a time when the number of start-up companies tripled in three years. And I was one of them. I was striving to become a blogger and to start my own workshop. So, I moved to Stuyvesant Town where an entire building had just been implemented for the WeWork/WeLive structure providing great resources for young businesses.

32 PennDesign | Fall 2017

In 2033, as the big businesses kept expanding and began to colonize every segment of the economic world, start-up companies had fewer and fewer space left to survive. As their companies failed, people also started to move out of Stuyvesant Town. It was a slow and gradual process, but it eventually happened. In 2033, the bubble of the startup dream popped. So did the balloons at Stuyvesant Town. I was there. After 8 years, I also closed my blogging workshop in 2032.

Now in 2037, I have worked as an editor at an online magazine for 4 years. And the building rebuilt the balloons early this year but this time, made it into Day Care Service areas to serve its new residents - people living with their extended families. It becomes such a different space but it looks just like the way I remember it...”

The Stuy Town in 2033 The image is a Polaroid took by Anita in 2033 after the balloon membranes of the work-from-home area were demolished. “So the balloons here eventually popped in 2033 when more and more start-up teams ended up failing and moved out of the building.” 33

COMMUNITY PROGRAM The community space is a two-story area enclosed by translucent balloon membranes. The open space is closely connected to the building mass with continuous floor planes. In 2017, the open area was used as a Work-from-Home space and the connected rooms within the building were conference rooms for rental. In 2037, the open area is reconstructed as a playground for kids and the conference rooms are used as activity rooms with various infrastructure installed.

UNIT DEVELOPMENT In 2017, all housing units are redevelopment into dorm-like apartments with multiple bedrooms for targeting start-up teams. In 2037, the dorm-like units are kept, only now are occupied by large families or families living with their extended families relieving the housing pressure in New York City.

4 The Oasis EWR Landside Terminal PennDesign M.Arch I 2019 Spring Pair Work with Yitian Zheng “The semester-long architecture and planning studio collaborated to address an opportunity to design and develop a new landside terminal for Newark Liberty International Airport as a means to reactivate the underutilized areas around the airport and to bring new economic opportunities to the City of Newark and its residents.” Critic: Marilyn Taylor

44 PennDesign | Spring 2019

Above Perspective | Arriving Train

EQUITY TRIANGLE The studio developed the Equity Triangle, a conceptual framework to convey the economic and spatial relationships between the South Ward and Newark’s principal employment areas. The major nodes in the equity triangle include the residential Weequahic neighborhood, which is representative of the South Ward based on its high poverty rate and long average commute times, the Newark Liberty International Airport, and Newark’s downtown Central Business District (CBD). Linking all three of the major employment nodes is Frelinghuysen Avenue and the intercity railway, the Northeast Corridor.

Establishing connection 46 PennDesign | Spring 2019

Frelinghuysen today is an oversized roadway that serves as a route for large trucks to distribute goods. It is poorly served by local transit and is lacking any significant commercial development. Repositioning Frelinghuysen Avenue as a human-scale, economic spine that connects all major employment areas could greatly benefit Newark as a job generator and an extension of the CBD.

THE OASIS One key driving force of the form-finding process for the landside terminal is to create connections between the Weequahic neighborhood through the redesigned Frelinghuysen Avenue and the airside

Form flowing from the core

concourses. This connection pathway is further developed to incorporate a central landscaped oasis within the terminal. As the anchor point of the new airport city, the Oasis landside terminal tries to provide an unprecedented airport experience as it integrates the access road system within the architecture itself allowing everyone to experience the different programs inside while driving around. Unlike many current airport designs, the Oasis focuses on the arrival experiences. As people arrive at the airport, they are exposed to a variety of services and entertainment programs right within the building and can start experiencing the new airport city and local Newark as they step outside the baggage claim.
