The way people consume information and collaborate has fundamentally shifted due to the advent of New Media. Architecture has something to learn from New Media: a rich environment of layered information, simultaneous streams of consciousness and emergent democracy. The CIC adopts this lens with “Venn-Diagrams” of space – which allow for the simultaneous existence of two programs in one place and connection between resources.

The primary purpose of the CIC is to provide easily accessible and changeable resources and environments. Environmental variation is achieved through the wall system of channel glass and vision glass with a perforated steel screen casting shadows that dramatically affect the quality of natural light on the interior throughout the day. Users can achieve an infinite combination work spaces by first choosing a specific environmental quality, gathering the resources needed to work, and moving partitions for comfort, privacy, visibility, etc. Cafe

“Four principles went into the design: agility, multifunctional use of the spaces, transparency, and seamless access... Since the ILC does not “belong” to any academic unit, it can serve as a university-wide resource.” - Learning Spaces, Christopher Johnson

The combined spaces become laboratories – the architecture in which users interact with physical space the way they can with digital space.

Each space is easily changed by sliding bookcases/supply storage shelves along tracks. Spacial efficacy is achieved through the implementation of a sliding, migrating, moving bookshelf and resource system – which also act as partitions. The librarians then become currators of the spaces, arranging them and organizing them in different ways over time. Zones of program mix by overlapping and sliding into each other. : 1/32" = 1' - 0"

enclosure structure systems

Vertical cores penetrate through each floor to emphasize way-finding and connection. While the digital realm can achieve mixing seamlessly, the physical realm imposes limitations such as confusion and clutter. Therefore, way-finding and connection are of equal importance. This is achieved by stacking similar programs above each other in space so that, despite the curious variations of each floor plate, resources are easy to locate.

RAIN IN THE DESERT : STRENGTH THROUGH UNITY

UNITARIAN UNIVERSALIST CHURCH CAMPUS genus loci : land ethic, understanding and respecting the spirit of the place

ARROYO BETWEEN EDUCATION CENTER

AMANDA SCHWARZ | ARC 302 | P. REIMER | SPRING 2014

The Unitarian Universalists find truth in an interdependent reverence for diverse philosophies. This principle is rooted to the Sonoran Desert by its phenomenological relation to the convergence of water during the yearly monsoons. Desert rain slowly carves through the earth, leaving behind arroyos as a memory and a promise.

Project Location : Oro Valley, Arizona Project Type : Church Campus Location Climate : Hot, Arid 11 Weeks - Spring 2014 - arc 302 - Paul Reimer - U. of Arizona

SITE CHARACTERISTICS

AMANDA SCHWARZ| ARC 302 | P. REIMER |

The massive walls, being of the earth, split to preserve and honor this phenomenon. The roof planes, being of the sky, act as the mediator. The language shifts to a series of layered tectonics that extend and blend into the landscape while structurally demonstrating strength through unity. Each individual program channels water through the central gathering space where a series of terraces allow for small and large SPRINGgatherings 2014 and an interconnected web of paths and nodes.

Results reveal that previous analyses were correct - the most sun falls on a v shaped area with slivers on the sides, more sunlight falls high up on the northern edgee of the site. The design response was to create a terraced form that minimized self shhading while maximizing sunlit area.

Using the existing structural language of the streetcar, this public space functions as a hub to celebrate the intersection of shared needs. Symbiosis in the desert is based on the shared needs for shade, protection, and water. In this design, the cable structure provides variations of shade, protection, and water catchement to develop multiple habitats.

“Architecture is the art of reconciliation between ourselfs and the world, and this mediation takes place through the senses.” - Juhanni Pallasmaa

“It is in dialogue with pain that many beautiful things acquire their value. Acquaintance with grief turns out to be one of the more unusual prerequisites of architectural appreciation. We might... need to be a little sad before buildings can properly touch us.” – Alain de Botton, Architecture of Happiness

Project Location : Tucson, Arizona Project Type : Three Unit Private Dwelling Location Climate : Hot, Arid Squarefootage : 15,000 ft2 6 Weeks - Spring 2013 - arc202 - Brian Andrews - U. Arizona Model Photographs

Three appartment units feed off of the core - a central brick spine that hold utilities, circulation and structure. Cantilevering apartment units emphasize the direct connection of each unit to the core - spiritually and structurally. This creates a relationship between those living in the units and the history of the warehouse district.

The first floor is almost untouched, save for the artist’s studio, to preserve the sense of abandonment. Under the cantelievered units, the public is invited to wait for the train and remember a time when the railroad was the lifeline of Tucson.

Through the use of a step-well formation, this shelter carves into the earth to create a flexible-use shelter that is less about survival and more about escaping the city to return to tucson’s roots. The step-well is a square formation that is cut off at the quarry wall.

2. PARK[ING] DAY The second piece was an event outside the crowd - two stationary installations that occupied a parking space to reclaim the street for the public.

3. “RESIDUE” The third piece created an event without the crowd - a procession through a series of small/large, bright/dim, warm/cool rooms, which highlighted the imbedded stories that objects and buildings carry with them through their residue.

An exploration on how space is performed or can be performative - we began by reading and researching existing theory on performative space. This led us to develop a series of events in public space to induce meta-thinking and/or shift the perception of space.
