HISTORIC PRESERVATIONSTUDY AND INTEREST

WHO AM I?An intoduction to myself

01

My name is Angelia Bloodsworth, and I am a Fightin’ Texas Aggie class of 2014. My passion for architecture sparked at a young age. I no-ticed that during my spare time I ould draw up mock floor plans for my future dream house, or tour historic homes and stand in awe at the beauty of them. I am a very ambitious person, and believe that if you perform your best then there will be no room for regret. A hard worker and attention to detail would touch base with some of my skills. My career goals are to obtain and better my experience in the work place, and strive to learn more about design and apply it to everyday practices. I am the first of my family to graduate from a prestigious university and earn a bachelor’s degree. I have had to work very hard for everything that I have. Some of the hobbies I enjoy are affiliated with nature, traveling and crafting.

HISTORIC PRESERVATIONArea of study and interest

I have always found something interesting about historical buildings. As a little girl, my father and I would travel around seeing as many historic homes as possible. I can still remember the way I felt as I walked into a room, or stood toe to toe with the great immensity of a building. My passion for architecture started then; right when I was able to sense the history and the stories that each one had told.

There was never a doubt for my passion, so when I came to Texas A&M University I took as many history classes for architecture as possible. This had led me to complete a minor in Art & Architectural History. Below I have listed the classes that have influenced me the most throughout my journey.

OLD

NEW

SENIOR YEARSummer & Fall Semester

The summer project required us to add on to an existing build-ing on Texas A&M’s campus. Through the architecture of addi-tions we were able to successfully achieve a great design.

The concept was to enhance the existing building through derivation using a contemporary architectural approach by stitching together the new and the old. The new building “stitches” together the idea of connecting the old to the new through design. It marries the elements of structure and design through penetration, wrapping, and indentation. It references the old in usage of material and courtyard connec-tion point.

WE HAVE CONSIDERED OTHER BUILDING MATERIALS, FOR EXAMPLE STEEL. ALTHOUGH STEEL HAS HIGH STRENGHTS AND QUICK CON-STRUCTION ERECTION BUT THE GENERAL COST OF STEEL IS MUCH MORE THAN CONCRETE. NOT ONLY THAT, BUT WE WOULD ALSO HAVE TO TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION OF FIRE PROOFING STEEL AND ATTEND TO THE MAINTENANCE REQUIRED OVER TIME. SINCE OUR BUILDING IS NOT A HIGH-RISE OR LONG-SPAN BUILDING, WE CAME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT CONCRETE WOULD BE MORE EFFECTIVE AND EFFICIENT WITH OUR PROJECT AND ITS LOCATION. HOWEVER, WE WILL USE STEEL STRUCTURE FOR THE CANOPY SYSTEM IN OUR DESIGN DUE TO ITS APPEARANCE AND LIGHTNESS.

OUR STRUCTURAL DESIGN HAS DEVELOPED MORE THAN CHANGED. OUR CANOPY SYSTEM WAS DESIGNED TO BECOME STEEL MATERIAL, WITH STEEL BEAMS (W 8 X 28) AND STEEL COLUMNS (5.9 in. x 5.9 in.). OUR OVERALL STRUCTURE HAS ADJUSTED TO PROVIDE THE ULTI-MATE SUPPORT. WE HAD TO CHANGE A COUPLE OF BEAMS IN THE DIRECTION THEY WERE GOING, ESPECIALLY OUR LONG SPAN BEAM. OUR STRUCTURE COLUMN GRID STILL FLOWS FROM THE ROOF OF THE BUILDING TO THE PARKING GARAGE. WE ALSO HAD TO REDUCE THE AMOUNTO LEVELS IN THE LIBRARY AND GALLERY AREA. FOR THIS, WE HAD TO CHANGE THE GRID TO BE ONLY FOR THREE FLOORS AND NOT THE FOUR WE HAD. WE ALSO ADDED ONE MORE LEVEL ON THE CAFE AND EXHIBITION AREA, THOSE ADDITION AND REDUCING OF LEVELS REALLY CHANGED OUR BONES STRUCTURE PLANS AND MODEL. WITH THE ADDITION OF EXTRA LOADS IN CERTAIN AREAS, ESPECIALLY WERE A LEVEL WAS ADDED.

THE MATERIALS WILL BE USING IN OUR BUILDING INCLUDE: GLASS, CONCRETE, AND METAL ROOFING. WE CHOSE THESE MATERIALS FOR THEIR ADVANTAGES, AND THE EASY ACCESSIBILITY OF OBTAINING THESE MATERIALS.

CAN BE USED IN EITHER A DESIGN OR AS A STRUCTURAL ASPECT. COULD STAIN OR COLOR TO INTEGRATE INTO DESIGN, OR COULD BE MOLDED, CAST INTO A PARTICULAR SHAPE. ALSO VERY ECONOMICAL WHEN USING LOCAL AGGREGATES AND DOES NOT DECAY OR COR-RODE LIKE OTHER BUILDING MATERIALS. IT HAS A LONG LIFE AND LOW MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS AND ALSO IS A NON- COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL. IT IS RESISTANT TO WIND, WATER, RODENTS AND INSECTS.

JUNIOR YEARFall Semester

Our project for this semester was to redesign an existing building on Texas A&M’s campus. The building is part of the “Langford Complex” for the College of Architecture, specifically for students in Visuallization. The challenges I faced dealt with the theoretical aspect of design and development. Developing a parti, concept, and idea was catered to the students who are in Visualization.

16

SOPHOMORE YEAR Fall Semester

During my sophomore design studios, I was able to further develop my skills not only with design, but also with computer programs such as Revit, AutoCad, and Photoshop. The project shown here was a site development of a hotel and confer-ence center in Millican, Texas. This was said to be a real life proposal, so we had to follow strict programming and clientele preferences.

Second Stage

Final Design

For the conceptual design, I knew that I wanted to incor-porate angled roofs, which was an inspiration of Lake Flato’s designs. To break up the square footage of the program, I decided to separrate each of the main volumes into three.

To capture the views of the lake and surrounding nature, I faced the buildings to the north and opened windows and walls. I began to play around with the roof in making separate sections angled differently. As shown to the left, the terrain was extremely sloped in certain areas. I took advantage of the land-scape rather than being feared by it and developed terraced patio areas for guests.

In the second stage, I developed the roofs more into playful pieces, undulating each section in counter-active ways. For the hotel, I opened the walls to capture more views, and gave multiple dimensions to the conference center.

conference center more into dimensional volumes. I added depth and detail to the curtain walls, windows, and landscape. Recreational features were added to appeal to guests of the hotel, and scenic views were maximized through design aspects.
