Hello! I’m Kade Jensen, I am a driven student in the college of architecture at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, and I’m looking to pursue a possible internship opportunity. Through my four years of study, I have grown to love design and architecture and hope to learn more each day. I truly believe being an architect is the best job due to the use of creativity in their everyday work to shape and create the world around us.

ALL-WAY LOW-RISE HOUSING IN LINCOLN, NE ARCH 411 - INTEGRATE INSTRUCTOR: MICHAEL HARPSTER COLLABORATORS: DYLAN LAMBE In this fourth year studio we were tasked to design a low-rise apartment building out of mass timber. The site is located at N 22nd & U st, across North Antelope Parkway. In all four of our apartment buildings we utilized a post and plate structure as it provided the best bay size for our micro unit buildings and multi-family buildings. In the micro units, we programmed these to best suit those who are in need of halfway housing. Those in need of halfway housing are those who have just been released from incarceration and are looking to reintegrate back into society. In the multi-family units we programmed those to suit the needs for families and college students. The site was designed to allow and encourage communication between the diverse program parties through our winding interconnected sidewalks to the sand volleyball court. We believe in creating a sense of community between the different tenants would help those in halfway housing gain trust and allow them to become essential members to society.

“We see a safe, vibrant learning environment that provides a collaborative haven for students and staff to embrace their individuality and reach their full potential through connections to nature, hands on learning and play.”

PRAIRIEVIEW ELEMENTARY SCHOOL IN BOX ELDER, SD ARCH 410 - COLLABORATE INSTRUCTORS: DARRIN HANIGAN / VANESSA SCHUTTE COLLABORATORS: NICK CARRAHER / SIDNEY RENELT / KEELY PERKINS In this fourth year studio we were tasked to design a school for the Box Elder, SD district that respected the cultures of both the Lakota Tribe families and the families of those that work for the Elsworth Air Base located within Box Elder. This was also the first big collaborative project we have been apart of.

I worked alongside two other architecture majors Nick Carraher and Sidney Renelt. I also worked with an interior design major, Keely Perkins. As a group we bolded our values that we wanted to instill in our design from the districts “we see” statement. Those words being safe, vibrant, collaborative, individuality, connections, nature, and hands on learning and play. We accomplished these values by creating an exterior of the building that reflected the native prairie grasses to the site and brought the site up to the roof and

created a green roof that allowed for connections between the interior and exterior for outdoor learning and different pathways throughout the site that offered exterior learning moments. On the interior we focused on the different learning styles such as kinesthetic, intrapersonal, visual, and interpersonal. These different learning types are important because one student doesn’t have one particular learning style rather they have multiple. Our design must adhere to these different learning styles so that these students are able to succeed in the classroom and learn at the best of their abilities.

THE NORTH FARNAM RENEWAL ARCH 510 - ADV ARCH DESIGN INSTRUCTORS: THOMAS TRENOLONE / TIMOTHY WILLIAMS / BRUCE CARPENTER 4 WEEKS TO DESIGN

In the 2030 Omaha city master plan it calls for an increase in 30,000 new residents entering the urban core.

30,000 new people means 30,000 new homes, 30,000 new jobs, and other necessities such as grocery and pharmacy. In this studio we were tasked with studying the history of the site, choosing a site, and developing it according to our thoughts of greatest necessity. In my project, I chose to study and design around housing as I sought that out to be the greatest problem to solve before 2030. I designed four mixed income buildings, a grocery store, parking garage, and office building to occupy the site. I also had a great emphasis on vegetation and primarily the relationship between the sidewalk and streetscape by creating a vegetation barrier.

THE 2030 PLAN The city of Omaha has a master plan that expects around 30,000 new people to be added to the current urban core population.

30,000 people mean 30,000 new homes, 30,000 new jobs, and an additional need for groceries and necessities.

The North Farnam Renewal approaches the housing crisis by providing 216 total units across four new apartment buildings that feature micro and 2-bed units that are all marketrate and affordable. The North Farnam Renewal also hopes to create a greener and safer neighborhood by utilizing Nebraska native plantings to create a safe and physical barrier between the sidewalk and street. Finally, the apartment buildings were also constructed environmentally-friendly with mass timber and features a green roof on the north side of the Farnam West building.
