The first floor of an office suite in Cleveland is being renovated into an outpatient behavioral health clinic for patients age 2-18.

The clinic is divided into two specialties: Substance abuse & eating disorders and autism & mood disorders. Considerations included acoustics, natural light, and positive distraction.

Hearthside aims to be a welcoming and homeful environment to those who walk through its doors.

Hearthside’s color palette is warm-toned to give a cozy environment. Orange colors are stimulating while the pinks are relaxing, both are warm and bright colors that create a hopeful environment.

FLOORPLAN SCALE: 3/64” = 1’-0”

The curved walls gives off a soft feeling and protect patients while facilitating movement through the space. To maximize natural light, patient spaces are pushed to the outer walls while privacy glass allows the light to spill into the hallways.

Organizing the space symmetrically gives each specialty its own space and allows staff to bounce back & forth.

AMERICANS LIVE IN MULTIGENERATIONAL HOUSEHOLDS

AMERICAN HOUSEHOLDS ARE MULTIGENERATIONAL

CHALLENGE: MULTI-GENERATIONAL HOUSEHOLDS With multiple recessions and a pandemic, many families are moving back in together to save costs.

However, most residential buildings in America are meant as single-family, single-generation homes that aren’t meant for longevity or adaptability.

WHY IS THIS A GROWING PROBLEM?

CONCEPT A family will grow and change over the years. Even if an individual branches out, they will always be connected to the core of the family.

The goal of this project is to create a home that will change with its family and can be passed down through generations.

Incorporate technology that is smart & sustainable

19

Create private spaces for every family member

Keep spaces flexible as family members age

A combination of open and private areas allows for both family collaboration and alone time.

Open, multi-use spaces also allow for flexibility as the family changes over the years.

DESIGN CONCEPT Both Hawaiian culture and Union Station have a deep connection to travel and movement. This project aims to incorporate the Hawaiian influence in way that facilitates the flow Union Station traffic while also providing a place to rest.

DIVIDER ELEVATION

SCALE: 1” = 10’0”

Seating is integrated into the curves of the divider, giving a variety of options. Materials like frosted glass and steel refract the incoming sunlight like water. The glass layers converge ahead to create a ceiling layer that contains the lighting elements.

tHe LiGHtboX FALL 2019 PROJECT TYPE: Conceptual Modeling Using one of El Lissitzky's Proun compositions as inspiration, we were tasked to create a model that manipulated light. At least one view of our “lightbox” had to resemble the Proun.

The Proun

Lighting

33

THE PROUN El Lissitzky produced several different “Proun” compositions in his career. Lissitzky vaguely defined Prouns as “the station where one changes from painting to architecture.

Prouns conveyed 3D concepts in paintings and lithographs, eventually evolving into three-dimensional installations.

I modeled my lightbox after a plan view of the Proun, using extrusion to create elements that would project shadows on the back wall of the lightbox.
