Desert MazeSingle Residence/Exploration- american desert

ARCH 272- Professor Lawrence Hamlin4 Week Project

Fall 2012Edward C Earl Prize - Honorable Mention

Page 6: Robert Joseph Schlorff Portfolio

The concept for my design was to take our lim-itation of two walls and bend those walls to create several similar but varying spaces. The position of the walls and the route and transi-tion between spaces created a maze. This maze reveals each space in a different way with every space having its own specific relationship with the environment around it.

ARCH 272- Professor Lawrence Hamlin5 Week Project

Page 10: Robert Joseph Schlorff Portfolio

For this project, located in cham-paign Illinois, I wanted to create a small but effecient home that i could see myself in. Due to the location I decided to focus primarily on block-ing prairie winds while still creating usable outdoor space. All Spaces within the structure are open to a courtyard and completely shielded from the south, west, and east: fo-cusing all attention to the North. The screen wall protecting the court-yard is also a kinetic sculpture using the force of the wind to turn and al-ter its pieces; this creates a union be-tween the wind and structure creat-ing some visual representation of its protective purpose.

ArboretumSupport Facility for The University of Illinois Arboretum- champaign Il

ARCH 373- Professor Jefferey Poss3 Week Project

fall 2013

Page 14: Robert Joseph Schlorff Portfolio

This project was to create a support facility for the University of illinois Arboretum. This facility would need to house public restrooms and chang-ing rooms for different events. My approach to the problem was to at-tempt to limit my impact on the land-scape. Tucked into an exsisting hill and out of the highly sought views my proposal was a wall and shading device which would give the facilities needed without excess.

The CaveOutdoor Performance complex and artists retreat at alerton Park- Monticello Il

ARCH 373- Professor Jefferey Poss12 Week Project

fall 2013

Page 18: Robert Joseph Schlorff Portfolio

This project called for a performance cen-ter and artists retreat on the grounds of Allerton park in Monticello Illinois. My approach was to design a complex that would blend with the existing landscape. My design does not leave the landscape un-touched but rather uses the same visual language of the site to create something new but familiar. Within the artist retreat I focused on making the spaces multi-pur-pose with built in/pullout furniture and appliances. The idea was to connect this space within the rest of the complex but still provide the artists privacy and space to work.

ARCH 374- Professor Altaf Engineer3 week Project

Spring 2014

Page 22: Robert Joseph Schlorff Portfolio

This project was a short, schematic, look at a mixed use urban structure in Chicago Illinois. The program was to create space for commercial businesses and in my case a public gym near street level and an arrangement of residen-tial units above. The orientation and placement of my residential towers gave them ideal light conditions, shel-ter from the noise of the L train, and allowed for every unit to have a desir-able view of the chicago surroundings. Between the two towers would be a semi-conditioned garden space usable all year long.

Suspended DivisonsUrban Library on Southern Corner of Lincoln Park- Chicago Il

ARCH 373- Professor Altaf Engineer12 Week Project

Spring 2014

Page 26: Robert Joseph Schlorff Portfolio

For this project we were asked to design a public library on the southern corner of Lin-coln Park in Chicago. During our site anal-ysis it became clear this could be used for far more than a library and would be a major attraction in this growing prospering area. I wanted to divide and separate the different programs within the building. Each program was given its own space and own unique expe-rience. Each floor differs in use and form. A combination of suspended bricks and translu-cent glass is used to diffuse harsh light on certain floors and certain areas.

3D HVAC and Structure Diagram

This was a semester long comprehensive design project for a new boutique hotel in downtown champaign Illinois. Light shafts spaced between rooms not only spread light through the floors but act as venti-lation stacks for the whole building. The First and second floors connect to the pe-destrians on the street through large cur-tain walls and large folding doors in the restaurant. these doors can be opened in temperate weather to help ventilate the building and push restaurant seating out into the sidewalk like many restaurants in the area do. Terra cotta bars hung over metal panels serve to respect the tradi-tional brick buildings in the area while at-tempting to update that idea. During the semester we had a series of exercises that focused on Life safety, Structural system, enclosure and energy codes, Environmen-tal Comfort, and Interior Development.

A GENERAL INTERIOR AREA IS ESTABLISHEDWITH THE USE OF A RECTALNGULAR PRISM

A GABLE FORM IS SITUATED WITHINTHE RECTANGULAR PRISM

THE GABLE FORM IS ROTATED WITHIN THE RECTANGULAR PRISM

THE GABLE FORM IS TRIMMED AT THE VERTICAL FACES OF THE RECTANGULAR PRISM TO CREATEAN INNOVATIVE GABLE CONSTRUCTION

ONE ROOF PEAK OF THE FORM IS DROPPED IN ORDER TO CREATE A DYNAMIC SHAPE

ONE EDGE OF THE FORM IS EXTENDED OUT TO OBTAIN MORE USABLE INTERIOR SPACE

Sukkah City STL 2014: Between Absence and Presence is an innovative art and de-sign competition presented by St. Louis Hillel and the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts at Washington University in St. Louis. The competition proposes a re-imagi-nation of the sukkah, an ancient, temporary structure used by nomads and harvesters, and to suggest dynamic possibilities for traditional construction constraints with forward-thinking design and sustainability.

Our approach to this prompt was to blend the sukkah’s form and materials with tra-ditional american vernacular form: specifi-cally the gable roof. Our material choices came from the idea to reuse and recycle many unused items available in our area.
