The goal of this project is to create a comfortable interior environment that allows freedom for the homeless clients to explore opportunities provided by various agencies, wait comfortably for their day to pass by, and experience more of the building that is currently provided for them in a less intimidating manner. This is achieved by opening up the previously limited second and first levels of the building to the clients, creating an equal grounds space for homeless clients and agency employees to interact.

Multiple resource hubs are inserted into the main resource lobby. These hubs provide opportunities for the agencies within the building to represent themselves on the floor for weeks at a time, creating more one-on-one client interaction than currently exists. Each hub features ample storage for the agency, a desk level surface for more intimate interactions, a bulletin board surface, laptop storage with power outlets, and an interchangeable name plate.

The dialogue between Estragon and Vladimir encapsulates our intent for this project: to create an essence of contentment for the inhabitants and
elevate the experience of waiting. From waiting for the lottery draw, to doing laundry, to even just the next day, the client spends much time with
an air of neglect that settles in the presently dark and poorly ventilated space. By improving efficiency and defining programmed zones, the envi-
ronment can discard a measure of despair out of waiting and replace it with hope. Our design focuses on the existing programs and delineating
spaces in which lighting, air flow, acoustics, and materiality, play roles in sharper accommodation. By proposing a security system and as a result,
improved circulation, the maximum efficiency of the space is addressed. We also allow the client to maintain a level of flexibility and control through
the introduction of movable seating and table elements that consider the concept of ownership, comfort, and storage.

The awning is a threshold element that transitions the
client from the alley way to the interior space. A demarcation
of the entrance . This will be a welcoming and unpretentious
space.
Bringing security in this area eases traffic in the front
while also addressing staff attention to the alley and building
relationship. Outdoor conditions such as cobblestone
floors and the continued building facade, interprets the space as
an exterior zone, the final step before entering the “interior”
space. It should carry the same threshold experience
as the awning.
The central meeting zone celebrates the act of
waiting, and its open plan is meant for all types of interaction
such as games and conversation. Movable seating and
tables makes the area flexible and gives the client a level of
control and creativity. However, to set boundaries for
circulation and organization, floor materials will vary and be
more textured in areas. Being farthest away from the natural
daylight, this space will be lit with low hanging lights that create
pockets of space which will define the area. Ceiling
fans and a heating system will be considered. A green wall
helps carry the outdoor energy to the innermost section of
the space, and it benefits the air quality and acoustics.
Originally the most appealing space due to the natural
ventilation and light, this lounge area
remains a social gathering spot with a stepped object for more
seating and directional views. The exterior facade will
have openings for ventilation, and the area will be demarcated
as a smoking zone. During the night, the object can
double as a theater space with the movie being projected
on the glass separating the security.
This nook is slightly pulled back from the central space and is to
be treated as a quiet zone. Elevated by a ramped
platform, the space values individual reading and laptop
use. Lighting conditions may be operated by the individual
based off of their activity. A bar can comfortably seat many
while still setting room for privacy. The surrounding space
also incorporates storage.
A parking area for 5 vehicles . The area is visually
concealed from the rest of the zones and is accessed by
staff only. And operable gate and the adjoining
green wall aid in proper ventilation.

A large seating object nestles the corner of the space, creating a sense of community and escape for the clients. With integrated ash trays, littering would be minimized. A loocked storage feature sits below each bench. This allows for clients to claim some property of the building for their own, as well as provides the ARCH building with some much needed storage space

Alexander McQueen’s designs are boldly daring, yet intrinsically feminine. Through a series of manipulations, a simple wall exemplifies similar bold aesthetics. The sharp angles coincide with the sharp wit of his garments, creating a pop-up shop form that works well with the fashion designer ’s intent.

By applying the eery lace-like qualities of the 3-dimensional vulture skull pattern studies to a bold formal mass, the pop-up shop is taken to a level of the striking, yet sharp, femininity. Small details of display, such as a structural accessory wall and an encased mannequin heighten the beautifully eerie nature of the Alexander McQueen experience.

Understanding the essential programs of the client, Team Rubicon, was crucial in determining the quality of work space they desired for their regional field office. By dividing the potential programatic elements into separate levels of desired seclusion or collaboration, it became apparent that the future of the office depended on a crucial balance between secluded and collaborative spaces in the workplace.

OFFICE PLAN
The regional field office is divided into two main zones: the collaborative work zone and private offices. The private offices have lowered ceiling heights for increased intimacy while the collaborative work zone is day-lit via skylights and a diffused lighting system. Most of the floor space is finished with stained concrete while private offices and meeting areas have carpet for acoustic integrity. Pops of red can be found throughout the space as a mark of branding.

PERSPECTIVE | private work space
Individual offices allow for privacy while retaining a sense of openness due to the wooden slats; each office has plenty of storage and soft seating for quick 1-on-1 meetings. The idea stands that each work station can be completely personalized for a sense of spatial ownership. A large central meeting space for extended use during operations, known as command central, is a crucial element in Team Rubicon’s office. Soft seating mixed with meeting tables and chairs offers the user a variety in options.

The private work spaces in the headquarters have lowered ceiling heights for increased comfort and intimacy while the collaborative work zones have high ceilings for a sense of openness and participation. The material palette for the office is simplified to finishes and specifications that could potentially be pulled directly from Home Depot, a sponser of Team Rubicon’s work. This minimizes the cost, but does not detract from the overall design aesthetic.

Through film, case study analysis, and various other research methods, we documented and analyzed the current functions of Austin’s Alamo Drafthouse Cinema; a movie theatre and dining experience in one. We then focused on the potential need for seating and table redesign within the theatres, and developed a design guide for future design references.
