IIT Innovation + Discovery Center Competition EntryProf. Alphonso Peluso, AIA (Vertex Digital Design)Aug/2012-Dec/2012
1This competition entry for IIT’s Innovation Center creates a dynamic space to house the university’s Interprofessional Project [IPRO] Program. The plug + play structure allows teams to manipulate their classroom spaces each semester according to their needs. The entire structure becomes an advertising mechanism for the university through a two-way projection screen, turning the building into a glimmering object at night as powerpoints and lecture screens are projected onto the outer facade.

2This proposed, seventy-story high rise complex combines eco-effecient design prin-ciples with an objective for creating as many social and communal outlets as possible. Each condo is arranged as a sheared duplex, providing patio space for every resi-dent within the wide double-skin facade. Energy is continually produced via sliding PV panels along the facade, which also act as shading + privacy devices. A grand atrium + multiple sky lobbies facilitate passive illumination/ventilation, while simultaniously extending venues for social interaction within the building. The segmented, exterior fa-cade also expresses the building’s grouping of apartments as vertical neighborhoods.

This Project employs three juxtaposed planning grids in order to achieve a faceted - or sharded - geometry in all dimensions. Composed of living, working, and exhibition space on an anonymous site in Chicago, the multipurpose structure is organized along a spine which seperates the site into an exterior private pavilion on one side and a public, sculpture walk on the other. The sharded spines which constitute the interior floor plates transition visitors from a translucent, focused environment to a free, trans-parent-clad environment from which to view the park beyond. The raised landscape components mimic the geometry of the residence; creating paths for visitors as well as property boundaries.

New City Urban Farmers’ MarketProf. Lynsey Sorrel, AIA (Holabird + Root)Aug/2010-Dec/2010
4Located adjacent to Goose Island on Chicago’s Near North Side Neighborhood, this proposed farmers’ market complex is composed of multiple market strands through which visitors circulate. These ramped strands are primarily retail-oriented on the bot-tom, and dining-oriented as visitors reach the building’s peak. The interstices within the intersection of each strand mark the footprint for education-focused greenhouses. The overall goal is to create an environment where visitors obtain food-related education at every turn of the path. A close-looped system of shopping results from this setup, whereby everything purchased from the market is employed in the dining areas, and all dining scraps are repurposed into soil for the greenhouses.

Big Sky Ski Lodge + Wildlife ConservatoryProf. Thomas Kearns (Sndbx)Jan/2011-May/2012
5Located on the slopes of Big Sky, MT’s ski mountain, this mid-level lodge delivers visi-tors into an enormous, warm wildlife conservatory. The building extends via ramped concourses to adjacent lifts, allowing beginner skiers, advanced skiers, and ski patrol members to easily access their corresponding programmic needs. As users relax, the interior atrium unearths indigenous summer wildlife, creating a didactic environment for skiers to learn about the vernacular flora + fauna. The center of the structurehouses a passive solar heating tower, which heats the space during thewinter. The concrete envelope which encloses the atrium is moredensely wrapped along the Northern facade, allowing for optimum insulative performance.

Re.Cyclotron CityEvolo Skyscraper Competition 2012Dec/2011-Jan/2012
6This competition entry repurposes FermiLab’s outdated cyclotron technology into vertical context. Instead of splitting particles, this urban-scale machine purifies Chicago-area air and water using advanced cyclotron techniques of chilling + acceleration. Several tubes extend underground, linking the structure to local areas of high pollution. Air + water is fed through the tubes, chilled + ac-celerated, split with a high-energy particle beam, hydrostatically precipitated to seperate the waste, and returned to the environ-ment. The central atrium offers pre-fabricated work + living areas for local scientists to conduct on-site research.

7Lake Michigan is currently 30% polluted, and contains over 2,000 ship-wrecks along its bottom. This competition entry creates a cruise hospi-tality experience which allows guests to explore these often overlooked wrecks. On the surface, the ship filters the lake’s water, sending the collected contaminants into onboard algae bioreactors to sustainably power the craft. Upon arriving at a wreck, a submersible portion of the ship descends into the water to enclose the wreck. Guests are allowed to explore the wreck using their own submersible hotel camping pods, as well as relax in the onboard ammenity areas. The system creates a cruise experience which travels from wreck towreck along Lake Michigan.

North Side Apartment Rehab (Chicago, IL)Forma Architecture + Planning (Chicago, IL)Mar/2013
8This proposed rehabilitation project calls for the transition of a turn-of-the-century warehouse building into a contemporary apartment complex. Since the surrounding Belmont neighborhood is famous for its nightlife, these presentation documents pro-pose an equally energetic, exciting identity for the structure. The furnished interiors are intended - much like the overall structure - to juxtapose contemporary forms with retro Chicago + Hollywood motifs.
