RESEARCH

Topography and History Study SANTIAGO Steam School in Lake forest,CA

A sample of the Santiago Steam School project site has rainwater runoff and eucalyptus forests as constraints.

The first-hand rendering shows rainwater runoff from the soccer field to the classrooms and the adjacent neighbors.

Topographic renderings made by Rhinos and Illustrators show rainwater flowing down from higher elevations where the soccer field is located. As a result, low located classrooms and lunch areas have flooding problems.

Once, a Eucalyptus forest was a dream in the area. But tall old trees became a hazard to students when the wind blew.

SCHEMATIC DESIGN of SANTIAGO Steam School in Lake forest,-

The title for this project is “Be Positive”. Through this design, constraints become beautiful and functional elements for the site. And this space can spread positive energy from the students to the community.

Design Goals: • Make the design of positive spaces from uneven pathways to even pathways, unused space to useful space, lonely space to fun places.

• Make Bios wale for the storm water management • Provide private spaces

Slope Garden Amphitheater This garden is for the water runoff solution with Bio swale.

The eucalyptus in the center area will be cut down and reused as the bench. Eucalyptus trees around will remain as a natural screen. Also, it functions as Amphitheater where students and visitors can enjoy the view and the slope with the Eucalyptus bench.

Maze Garden and Jacaranda seating Garden These gardens open the space to the school and community as a center of the town for many different ages.

RENDERINGS by hand

Design to provide fun and functional spaces in every spot.

Keep the warm and cozy theme throughout the site.

Design the shade and cozy private domes to provide private places for students.

Fun, organic shapes, and stained glass shade stimulate student’s brains.

Provide an inspirational space with full of adventure experience.

Reuse the cut-down Eucalyptus trees and live trees to incorporate with activities.

ELEVATION Renderings by hand and Photoshop

Location of the pond is lower to get storm water runoff and it can provide fun educational space.

The lower location of the Amphitheater slop garden is the solution to water runoff and provides seating and a play area.

This area provides space for special events and stages for the performers.
