NORTHWESTERN CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL FALL 4TH YEAR

We were given a site located in the heart of Chicago near the old water tower on Michigan Avenue and just south of the John Hancock tower. The project was to design an urban children’s hospital. The process in which the hospital was designed began with studying the city, the potential occupants, and the immediate site. The city of Chicago supports iconic and progressive architecture and while visiting the city I noticed how the lake and the river have inspired a series of organic architecture. The design is intended to create an inspirational pallet for the occupant’s imagination. The form was developed through conceptual models that address the contrast between the rational form symbolic of the city and the organic form symbolic of the child. The form then had to unify with the program to provide the staff with a functional work-space to treat the patients. The north side was identifi ed as the public façade in order to maintain the public realm, and provide the front door. The south side however provided the opportunity for a façade that increased the sur-face area allowing more sun light in to the building, which benefi ts the health and wellness of the occupants. The building needed to express a caring, uplift-ing, and inspirational space that provides the basic functions of the hospital.

Goals

-Activate The Site, Visitors, Occupants, and The Surroundings-Express Children’s Hospital-Create A Place of Healing

THE MONTGOMERY NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM

Spring 2nd Year

This project challenges you to design a landmark, address the con-text, utilize wood construction, and provide a fl exible showcase for the city of Montgomery. The process employs the subconscious to generate adaptive spa-tial forms; that can accommodate the program and address the issues of the site. Once the form and the program unify the issue of controlling light with-in the museum became an important goal. A geometric unit that could be re-peated on the large western façade was created to limit the amount of light and create a shadow pattern that would provide a show like experience to teach the visitors about the suns rotation and its vital part of the life cycle.

Goals

-Connect the visitor and the city to the natural environment-Control direct sunlight-Create an iconic landmark for the city

Opelika BookstoreFall 2nd Year

The Opelika bookstore project challenges you to design while considering the surroundings of the site as well as providing the opportunity to be inspired by its rich history. Opelika Alabama is the neighboring city to auburn. The history of this early American town grew around the railroad at the turn of the century; Opelika became an industrial powerhouse in the region exporting agricultural and manufactured goods. With this in mind the form needed to express the evolution of Opelika while still fi tting within its context. This began with a decision to eliminate the appearance of the doors on the front façade which allowed a larger display window well still main-taining a clear entrance. Next I explored solutions to display the books and create a presence on the street by designing a shelving system that could support the prod-ucts as well as the fascicled glass that would give the store an identifi able identity.

Goals

-Transcend the customer in to a world of books or other merchandise-Increase the size of display window-Express Context through materials and building styles
