Tybee Island Research
Dedicated to public education and the research of Savannah’s coastal wildlife, the Tybee Island Research Center explores the relationship between research and public exhibition.
The program of the Tybee Island Research Center is to include space for holding and displaying living marine specimens and areas to perform chemical tests of water and specimen samples (i.e. toxicity). The building is to be conducive to public education, provide areas of exposure to the marsh and house research facilities.
The lazaretto creek bridge is the last major crossing before reaching Tybee Island from Savannah. Remnants of the train rail that spanned this divide remain visible, partially obscured by the marsh. Our site was located northeast of the bridge. This site is screened from the highway by vegetation, and has unimpeded access to a small beach between swaths of marshland.
site along the Savannah River
The built environment of Tybee Island is perceptibly hodge-podge. It became apparent to us that the building could simultaneously respond to and critique this condition; but first it was necessary to
ask, what is hodge-podge?
Hodge-podge is cheap; it is a product of the deterioration of additive–accumulative–and
disjointed alterations. It is collage, but more precisely bricolage–a composition of independent parts from various times. It is junk thrown together helter-skelter, without a thought for permanence.
The building was intuitively conceived as two horizontal elements: a wall and a boardwalk. The wall reinforces the site’s linearity and its position between the two destinations of Tybee Island and Savannah. The majority of the program was to be contained in a third mass which counteracts the horizontality of the other two.

While traditional marine research labs contain storage areas of testing tanks on racks relegated in back rooms, the program of the Tybee research center focuses on public exhibition. The wall separating the terraced public space and research laboratory is a large rack in which tanks are placed. Each tank in this scheme is able to act as an individual display and an accessible research environment. With each element of the vertical wall contributing toward the display, the entire wall becomes a sign.
