01 NEW CARNEGIE LIBRARY
DATE: 2022 | 4TH YEAR FALL
PROJECT LENGTH: 15 WEEKS
SCHEMATIC DESIGN PARTNERS : KAITLYN RHINEHART + JOESEPH WILLIAMS
PROFESSOR: ALISON TURNER
DESCRIPTION: THE NEW CARNEGIE LIBRARY IS SITUATED IN A BURGEONING AREA OF SPRINGDALE, ARKANSAS, CLOSE TO DOWNTOWN AND ADJACENT TO KEY COMMUNITY SPACES LIKE THE JONES COMMUNITY CENTER AND ITS BIKE TRACK. STRATEGICALLY POSITIONED TO BECOME A DYNAMIC FOCAL POINT, THE LIBRARY’S DESIGN EMPHASIZES COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AND ACCESSIBILITY. THE LAYOUT ENSURES EASE OF ACCESS FROM MULTIPLE DIRECTIONS WHILE PROVIDING A BUFFER FROM THE NEARBY HIGHWAY. WITH ENTRANCES ORIENTED TOWARDS BOTH THE RECREATION CENTER AND THE BIKE PATH, THE LIBRARY PROMOTES INCLUSIVITY AND CONNECTIVITY. ITS THOUGHTFUL DESIGN SUPPORTS ACCESS BY BIKE, CAR, OR ON FOOT, REINFORCING ITS ROLE AS A VIBRANT HUB IN THE CITY’S EVOLVING LANDSCAPE.

02 CHCHCHCHANGES
DATE: 2023 | 4TH YEAR SPRING
PROJECT LENGTH: 15 WEEKS
PROFESSOR: JEREMY SMITH, ALEXANDRA WALLER
THE CHCHCHANGES STUDIO ADVANCES THE PROPOSITION THAT ARCHITECTURE IS NEVER FINISHED, BUT IN CONTINUAL DIALOGUE WITH ITS CONTEXT. THE PROJECT ENSUES TRANSFORMATION WHILE MAINTAINING A CONSISTENT DESIGN STRATEGY. THROUGH A PROCESS OF PUSHING AND PULLING WALLS, THE EXTERIOR FORM EVOLVES WHILE THE INTERIOR REMAINS FLUID AND ADAPTABLE. THIS DELIBERATE AMBIGUITY ENSURES THAT THE BUILDING REMAINS RESPONSIVE TO CHANGING NEEDS AND CONTEXTS, SERVING AS A TESTAMENT TO THE RESILIENCE AND VERSATILITY OF ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN.
AS THE PROJECT PROGRESSES THROUGH DIFFERENT TIME INCREMENTS, IT REACTS TO THE EVOLVING AREA, FROM PROGRAM MODIFICATIONS TO CITY-WIDE GROWTH TRENDS. DESPITE THESE CHANGES, THE UNDERLYING STRATEGY OF CHCHCHANGE REMAINS CONSTANT, PROVIDING A FRAMEWORK FOR FLEXIBILITY AND INNOVATION. THROUGH THIS ITERATIVE PROCESS, WE NOT ONLY EMBRACE CHANGE BUT HARNESS IT AS A CATALYST FOR ARCHITECTURAL EVOLUTION.

03 STEP AND STACK
DATE: 2022 | 3RD YEAR SPRING
PROJECT LENGTH: 15 WEEKS
PROFESSOR: BRIAN HOLLAND
DESCRIPTION:
STACK AND STEP EMERGES AS A INTEGRATION WITH ITS SITE, ACCOUNTING FOR A SIGNIFICANT 70 FT TOPOGRAPHICAL SHIFT. DESIGNED TO HARMONIZE WITH ITS SURROUNDINGS, THE BUILDING CONNECTS WITH THE NATURAL LANDSCAPE OF THE LOS ANGELES CONTEXT.
COMPRISING TWO STAIR-STEPPING STRUCTURES BRIDGED TOGETHER, THE FORM OF STACK AND STEP ELEGANTLY CASCADES DOWN THE SITE, FOLLOWING ITS CONTOURS. THIS NOT ONLY CREATES A VISUALLY STRIKING SILHOUETTE BUT ALSO PROVIDES OPPORTUNITIES FOR ENGAGEMENT WITH NATURE AT EVERY LEVEL. GARDEN TERRACES AND VERDANT COURTYARD SPACES INTERSPERSED THROUGHOUT THE BUILDING OFFER MOMENTS OF RESPITE AND CONNECTION WITH THE OUTDOORS, FOSTERING A HARMONIOUS RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT AND THE SURROUNDING LANDSCAPE.

ENTRY + WAYFINDING
DATE: 2024 | 5TH YEAR SPRING
PROJECT LENGTH: 15 WEEKS
PARTNER: QUINCY MUNSELL
PROFESSOR: CARL MATTHEWS
THIS PROJECT INVOLVES THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE FORMER LEE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL IN HOT SPRINGS, ARKANSAS, INTO A VIBRANT COMMERCIAL AND RESIDENTIAL SPACE. THE REDESIGN AIMS TO OFFER A DYNAMIC THIRD SPACE FOR THE TOWN’S YOUNGER RESIDENTS AND SERVE AS A COMMUNITY HUB. AT THE HEART OF THIS ADAPTIVE REUSE IS A COMMITMENT TO PRESERVING AND CELEBRATING THE BUILDING’S ARCHITECTURAL HERITAGE. KEY DESIGN ELEMENTS, SUCH AS THE DISTINCTIVE GRIDDED WINDOW MULLIONS AND THE CURVED WALLS, HAVE BEEN INTEGRATED INTO THE NEW VISION BY EXPLORING THESE FEATURES’ GEOMETRIES AT VARIOUS SCALES, ENSURING THEY ENHANCE THE SPACE’S CONTINUITY AND COHERENCE WHILE HONORING ITS HISTORICAL CHARACTER.
PRESERVATION & DESIGN CONCEPT

THE PROJECT CONSISTS OF FIVE STUDIO APARTMENTS DESIGNED TO CATER TO YOUNG ADULTS LIVING IN HOT SPRINGS, ARKANSAS. THE COMPACT SQUARE FOOTAGE OF THESE UNITS MAKES THEM BOTH AFFORDABLE AND OF HIGH QUALITY, OFFERING AN ATTRACTIVE OPTION FOR RESIDENTS WHO ARE OFTEN OVERLOOKED IN THE LOCAL HOUSING MARKET. BY FOCUSING ON EFFICIENCY OF SPACE, THESE APARTMENTS PROVIDE A COMFORTABLE AND ACCESSIBLE LIVING SPACE FOR COMMUNITY MEMBERS.
