CURATED WORKS
FOREWORD
As a lover for theatre and a admirer of design, I find architecture fascinating as we create the very world in which people exist. It can be as fantastical or as functional as one desires, but it’ll always have a direct influence on how we as people live day to day. My name is Eleanor Huntley, and I strive to create something visible and permanent that impacts the human experience in a positive way. I’m always eager to learn new things and gain valuable experience with every opportunity I stumble upon.

SHIFTING GROUND: ORNITHOLOGY LAB
A BUILDING RESPONSIVE TO EVER-CHANGING LANDSCAPE
Third Year Design Studio I
Semester: Fall 2021
Professor: Francois Sabourin
In collaboration with Gwendolyn Darling
Shifting Ground is a response to a theory of changing landscape over time within Kelley’s Island in Lake Erie, Ohio. The quarry is strategically filled with dredge over a 30 year period, and the building and program reacts to the scenario as the years go on. In this future, entitled the Green Island Scenario, the 6-story building adapts to become an ornithology laboratory to study the over 4,000 species of birds of the Great Lakes region. Housing a rehabilitation center, exhibition, science labs, and equipment storage adjacent to a staged wetland, this building is ideal for the function of the Green Island Scenario.
The facade of the building is composed of strategically placed CMU blocks acting as a solid net encompassing the structure. Land, and birds, can penetrate the facade, blurring the lines of interior and exterior, and create new architectural experiences as time goes on and the quarry continues to be filled. Doors on every floor ensures usability in every possible situation.

THE UNDIVIDED MANY
MAY 4TH MEMORIAL DESIGN ON KENT STATE CAMPUS
Second Year Design Studio I
Semester: Fall 2020
Professor: Kyle Zook
In a short, college-wide competition to design a new memorial for the Kent State May 4th Shooting, I shifted my direct focus from the victims (though still represented) to the overall movement the students were representing on that tragic day. The Undivided Many represents the need for change. As we reflect on the victims of May 4th and the greater context of the event with this memorial, we strive to challenge the rules and standards we are meant to follow to spark action in individuals wanting to improve the environment and society in which we live and lead a new movement for the sake of society.
This memorial reads as one cohesive piece, but with a closer look reveals the many pieces that create the form. It reflects the unifying goal of the 1500+ individuals that sought to make a difference on May 4th. It is many people gathering with one voice and one objective: to create a better future.

PUBLIC LIBRARY ADDITION IN HISTORIC FLORENCE, ITALY
Third Year Design Studio II
Semester: Spring 2022
Professor: Paola Giaconia
Semester Abroad in Florence
This studio project emphasized the study of relationships between historical urban context and new design. The site of Piazza Brunelleschi sits between two larger piazzas of Piazza del Duomo and Piazza della Santissima Annunziata. For my University of Florence Humanities Library Addition, I was interested in the extension of the urban context to drive my project form and geometry. Such strong directionality in the surrounding behavior encourages engagement between the existing and the new. I used the horizontal and vertical site lines of building angles, roof slopes, and path directions to inspire the shape, size, and division of the entire project, including piazza.
Much of the program of the library is housed underground, with an interior courtyard for unique, direct access from the piazza. The massing mainly houses the program meant largely for students, being the auditorium, lecture hall, and administrative offices. Given its rather large form, the facade takes a subtractive approach with the glass openings, which also encourages interaction from the outside. By following the natural behavior of the historic site of Piazza Brunelleschi, the contemporary library addition promotes collaboration between interior and exterior, old and new, and a new energy to what was before a rather deserted public space.

STONE HOUSE
MEDIA HOUSE OF MIXED AESTHETICS IN DOWNTOWN KENT
Second Year Design Studio I
Semester: Fall 2020
Professor: Kyle Zook
The Stone House draws inspiration from the revolution of the digital age and its influence on the world of written and visual media. One could argue that digital media has become the foundation for media as a whole, due to the countless tools and forms of media we experience today from its innovations. The facade of this media house is a primitive stone texture overlayed with a digital pattern. The mixing of two aesthetics from opposites ends of a timeline directly showcase the relationship between digital influence on more ancient forms of media.
The program organization puts the data centers and spaces for making media in the upper part of the building, which trickles down to the spaces meant for presenting media. The exterior and interior forms use a combination of hard and soft edges across different dimensions to experience movement throughout the whole design.

DISSONANT MEASURES
A CULTURAL AND RECREATION CENTER IN TREMONT, OHIO
Second Year Design Studio II
Semester: Spring 2021
Professor: Greg Stroh
DISSONANT MEASURES is a cultural and recreation center located in Tremont, Ohio that emphasizes the notion of dissonance as an architectural term and physical experience.
Through separating contrasting programs and using dramatic proportions and clashing forms, it creates a sense of tension and disunity within an urban environment, defined as the dissonant experience. The use of curvilinear versus rectilinear geometry to distinguish differing program uses, the lack of visual connections, and the striking height of the building compared to its context makes the project stand out as a dissonant experience within the city.

CLEVELAND SCHOOL OF MEDIA ARTS
AN ADAPTIVE REUSE PROJECT IN THE FLATS OF CLEVELAND
Fourth Year Design Studio I
Semester: Fall 2022
Professor: Robert Kobet
The Cleveland School of Media Arts was assigned on a site with five existing buildings to respond to. I utilized two in my project, and let the rest be characterized by new construction. In my design, inspired by the adjacent silos of Lafarge North America, I came up with a project characterized by tall glass silos that functioned as entries and methods of allowing natural light into an uncommon space: underground. I added a large collaboration lounge, demolished Spruce Ave, and created a rather heavy, solid complex with a light, welcoming plaza that encouraged an engaging landscape for not only the intended user group, but also the public of Cleveland, Ohio.
These silos also act as the kinetic element, connecting the interior underground spaces with the exterior. They drive the project and promote engagement with various landscapes, inside the project and on the site, and with each other, as these spaces are meant to promote collaboration and innovation for the user group.
