Ziejiang Provincial Energy Group Hangzhou Campus

A new research and development complex for the Ziejiang Energy Group is seen as an opportunity to create a signature presence for the company within a new high tech development in Hangzhou.

The selected site straddles a green corridor that will allow for views and access to the nearby Yuhang River. The two schemes developed for this project both recognize this corridor as an opportunity to encourage connections to nature and provide opportunities for chance encounters, informal discussions and personal enjoyment within a landscaped corridor.

The site design of this scheme is predicated on the green corridor becoming a sinuous seasonal tree lined spine winding its way through the site. Pedestrians and employees crossing the site pass through a variety zones and landscape features. The northeast entrance sits between the building and a sculpted and landscaped mound; further on at the center of the site lays the main square linking the two buildings on the ground level. The square provides space for outdoor events and informal meetings while maintaining the required emergency access to both buildings. In the southwest corner of the site the spine bridges a pair of twin lakes before opening out towards the Yuhang River.

Where in scheme A the site design is based on the creation of a physical green corridor here the corridor is seen as an implied visual gateway. This frees the ground plain from a need to adhere to one primary circulation path; instead pedestrians are faced with a network of paths through an abstracted geometric patchwork. The individual tiles are made up of indigenous wetlands, wildflower beds, patches of forest, reflecting ponds and hardscape.

Bananas are a tasty, nutritious, and highly portable snack. It’s no surprise that New Yorkers eat more bananas than any other fresh fruit, about 112 million pounds annually. But bananas are not native to the United States, or even North America. The delicate tropical fruit is shipped thousands of miles in refrigerated vessels to the fruit stand, generating millions of pounds of greenhouse gases in the process. B.A.N.A.N.A.S N.Y.C is our proposed architectural solution to this problem, an ultra-dense vertical farm capable of producing over 5,000 tons of bananas annually, or about 10% of New York City’s demand.

Bridgetown

A proposal for Portland’s future, where the desire for dense urban living has led to the search for alternative sites, Bridgetown examines the potential for growth on the Willamette River. Historically Portland has been a city defined by its bridges, Bridgetown looks to strengthen Portland’s identity as a city of bridges while adding to the historical narrative through the erection of its first new bridge since the completion of the Fremont Bridge in 1973. Unlike the existing bridges the new bridge aims to bring people to the river rather than simply across it. Linking the Tom McCall Waterfront Park and the East Bank Esplanade the bridge is seen as a public promenade activated by a series of viewpoints and public programs. Four towers rise from the river to support the bridge containing over half a million square feet of office and residential space that keep the bridge and the river occupied and active at all times. Bridgetown seeks to reinforce Portland’s image as a river city by bringing social and economic activity to the Willamette.

A series of towers would bring the city onto the river and link the disparate East and West urban fabric.

The towers and their placements create an alternating sequence of dense activity and open expansive views.

A raising section allows large ships to pass though along the shipping channel. The lifting of the bridge is an event where visitors can experience a unique view of the city as they rise 140 feet above the river.

Located at the kink the heavy stone clad building acts as a visible lynchpin that holds the bridge taut against the current.

Master Plan for Tianjin Civic Center

The civic center for a new district in the city of Tianjin, China is to be located within a field of free standing residential towers, adjacent to an expansive natural park. As a center of the new community the master plan focuses on creating a defined and concentrated area of activity at the street level in direct contrast to the scattered vertical stacks of housing.

Street level activity is encouraged through the creation of a consistent street edge of commercial and retail space that defines the border of the development. The open space is consolidated into a public quad situated in the center of the plan to create a public lawn complementing the adjacent forested park. The solid street edge that defines the park is made porous by a series of bisecting alleyways every 300 feet to allow pedestrian filtration across and through the site.

The master plan calls for the creation of two key buildings, a public library and a convention and investment center. These buildings are placed at either end of the quad giving them an enhanced presence and forming a visual north-south axis to counteract the separation of the site into two halves created by the city’s east-west axis.

The commercial buildings provide a consistent street front defining a public quad. Within the quad two special buildings, the convention center and public library, establish a north-south axis.


Buildings fit into the traditional city plan from a distance with towers based on an orthogonal grid and plinths forming a consistent street edge; however when approached at ground level the grid shifts to open views into and out of the site.

Digital/Physical Surface Deformation

A study based on the relationship of digital and physical modeling used the abstraction and deformation of a two dimensional surface as a means to create a pair of inverse physical objects. The larger exoskeletal object was produced by exploding a continuous tubular surface in Rhino, laser cutting the exploded elements and stitching the elements back together within an exterior support skeleton to create an internal cave-like experience. The smaller endoskeletal object was produced using a 3D printer and laser cutter, the printed skeleton supports twin twisting surfaces that define a skin and accentuate the form of the internal skeleton to create a small sculptural object.

The flats is an urban housing tower to be located next to the most prominent figure in Portland’s skyline, Pietro Belluschi and SOM’s US Bancorp Tower aka. Big Pink. During the day it defers importance to Big Pink, but at night when the office tower has emptied and residents return home The Flats comes to life. Each unit is equipped with an occupancy sensor that activates an LED panel on the façade below giving the tower a dynamic and active presence in the night sky.

ProgramBeyond the 200 residential units of the tower and the 12 retail spaces at street level the building contains a restaurant, a public plaza to the South and a photography museum. The photography museum occupies the entire second floor and half of the first, it can seen as a glowing box floating above the sidewalk of downtown Portland’s busiest street.

Division Street Library

Designed to serve Portland’s Richmond neighborhood this library accepts that the role of a library is no longer as a simple depository of books, it must also be a center of the community providing open access to information. Equally important to providing literature to the community the library acts as a neighborhood computing center. In order to remain adaptable to the ever changing nature of information sharing the floor plates remain free of permanent fixtures. While the floor plates remain flexible a series of small to mid-sized spaces are created by the structural bay system that are as comfortable to curl up with a book in as they are to work on a laptop or to chat with a friend.
