Background Building

This precedent study drawing of “The Gazebo Building” comes from the historical town of Ferndale California. Stripping back the details of the Italianate structure to reveal the nuances of wood frame construction on the Victorian era building located in the heart of the town helps the viewer to appreciate the hierarchy of shapes and tabulation of forms.

Background building design studio accentuated the designer’s architectural background as the project was located in each designer’s hometown, Eureka California. Going through the process of extensive contextualized locational research aids the design process in being individualized to the unique conditions of the locality. This includes but is not limited to considering the context of Eureka’s climate, socio economics, local history, construction processes, and available construction materials and resources. The variety of elements are thoughtfully crafted together to create the ideal ‘background building’.

Integrative design

Integrative design is utilized in the realm of architecture to bring a marketable and pleasing design into constructible fruition. Considerations for the context of community growth are of paramount importance in producing a successful design. This particular project was premise driven by the inspiration of bringing two different communities together through their mutual love of artistry. This was implemented into the design process and manifested in a variety of design patterns. Most notable are the public art installation spaces and sizable allocations for murals on various buildings throughout the site.
