St. Louis, MO Thesis/Degree Project, Fall 2015 Instructor: Eric Hoffman

The identity of a building is ever changing.

Over the last century, a modest stone church in mid-town St. Louis has witnessed the rise, fall, and rebirth of its community. At its conception, the church sat on the corner of Delmar Boulevard and North Spring Avenue in a once vibrant residential neighborhood. Today the church is one of only three structures that remain from this time period. As people left the city and their homes disappeared, Delmar was severed at this intersection and shifted north. In 2002, the church burned down leaving only its stone shell. It remains untouched and stands as an open relic; a ruin.

Enrichment through adjacencies.

The intervention seeks to regenerate the identity of the church from collapse to utility through a structure and program that extends from the existing church ruin to Delmar Boulevard’s new route. The composition of old and new form a visual and performing arts center for the adjacent high school. The ruin serves as an anchor and becomes a sculpture garden, exposing the memory of its past while also reaffirming its presence in the community. Opposite, a recital hall meets Delmar Boulevard. In between, the original boulevard is transformed into an outdoor performance and exhibition space for community gatherings. Studios dance along terraced urban rooms that reinforce strong connections to both street and school.

river des peres greenway

A demonstration farm for aquaponics serves as an approachable industry to the residents of the community where they can learn about the potential of urban farming in St. Louis. River Feeds restores the river both artificially and organically, through a hard and soft edge. The hard edge works with the current limestone on the east bank, inserting the aquaculture tanks into the channel walls.

While the fish native to the river cannot survive in the polluted river, this artificial insertion provides a marked reintroduction to the river. The soft edge on the east bank removes the channel wall and changes the grade of the land to support stormwater remediation through natural systems. This recreation of the historical condition of the river artificially and naturally provides both educational and production opportunities for the area.

river des peres greenway

This crossing of the River Des Peres sets out to reclaim the historic river’s edge by bridging the history of the constructed river and the surrounding communities.

The southern portion of the River des Peres creates a boundary between the city and county of St. Louis as well as industrial and residential corridors. The Great Rivers Greenway trails have begun to foster new connections in this area. River Feeds seeks to merge the two disconnected industrial and residential areas through a productive, teaching landscape.

U Va remembrance g arden

Charlottesville, Va LAR 5590, Fall 2012 & Spring 2013 Instructor: Nancy Takahashi Collaborative Project

This seminar and independent study project was initiated by the UVa Student Council to design a new memorial space for the community. My two colleagues and I presented our plans to the Student Council and Landscape & Arboretum Committee and the plans have been passed on to a local firm to further develop the plans for construction.

The Remembrance Garden at the University of Virginia is a place where students can gather and grieve the loss of friends and classmates. In a space centrally located on Grounds, the garden offers a place of refuge and reflection. Poem-lined walks draw one into a calming space of lush plantings, seating and lighting. The garden utilizes the existing south brick wall to memorialize those who have passed away. Visitors can create memorials for loved ones by writing a name with chalk on a slate shelf in which flowers, candles, stones, and notes can be left. The wall commemorates the relationships of those who have passed--whether they were friends, mentors, hall-mates, brothers or sisters.

b rewing r etreat

St. Charles, MO ARCH 511, Spring 2014 Instructor: Derek Hoeferlin

The brewing retreat is focused on creating an experience that allows the visitor to be integrated into the brewing process. Instead of a glass envelope separating the visitor from the equipment, a separation of levels allows for a more direct experience, while maintaining a physical barrier from the production process. The form is an investigation of the brewing process and the life cycles of the ingredients throughout the process. Brewing requires different levels of energy required for the process, whether it be through heat, electricity or time required. These levels inform conceptual volumes to project a volume of the entire process. A tent-like structure encloses the process with a double skin barrier that allows for ventilation and shading. The brewing equipment lies within the carved ground, following the natural slope of the riverbank. Brewers and visitors inhabit cable suspended floors.

The Missouri River and the Katy Trail provide a site that allows for seclusion, but also easy access for visitors by bike or foot and for delivery and shipment by access road. This retreat on the Missouri River is specifically for gypsy brewers, or brewers without their own brewery. This space would host brewers in residence and be able to create exclusive brews to be available at the brewery as well as distributed to local bars.

miles away from the event. In efforts to provide a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, this project provides an on-site solution by creating an integrated core for shipping containers to plug into for energy, water, and electricity. The core also elevates the housing units by providing the visitor with surrounding views of the natural landscape. By designing temporary module structures that respond to the terrain, Landscape Flux rebrands the shipping container as a unitized system working as a network of shared resources between modules.

The proposed plan comprises two structures with the flexibility to expand depending on the annual events. Each structure is composed of a concrete steel reinforced central core with six cantilevered containers. The containers have an insulated sleeve on the interior allowing for controlled heating and cooling. Geothermal heating and cooling systems rooted in the ground are piped up through the central core and are connected to the units for radiant heating and cooling. Well water is pumped to the central core, filtered, and delivered to the units as needed. Solar panels on the roof of the central core power the structure’s generator. Additional underground electricity connections are also available.

Charlottesville, Va Advanced Building Systems, Fall 2014 Instructor: Paul Donnelly Collaborative Project

Shipping Containers have been a design dilemma throughout this past decade, however additive structural systems have not produced profound design solutions. Landscape Flux is a housing structure made of shipping containers for seasonal events taking place throughout the year in Charlottesville, Virginia. Located on the University of Virginia campus, this project provides the temporary housing necessary to meet the demands of population changes for short periods of time.

Film festivals, equestrian races, music festivals, among prevailing winds other events, require 3-5 day visitors Designer’s Statement to stay at hotels 10-15 miles away from the event.

The purpose of this proposal is to mitigate transportation by providing on-site temporary housing for the influx of event populations.

Inspired by the broader urban problem of excessive driving, this proposal focuses on adapting shipping containers, not as autonomous structures, but as an integrated systems working towards a more efficient constructed whole. This project seeks to operate independent of city-supplied water and power, and looks to new construction to only build what is necessary for optimal efficiency.

Urban Filters is a mixed use development along the metrolink, which seeks to mediate the convergence of an industrial urban fabric and a natural refuge. A series of physical and visual filters create a space in which residents and commuters can seek refuge as a destination or simply a stop on their commute.

Forney, TX ARCH 3020, Spring 2012 Instructor: Iñaki Alday & Tat Bonvehi Collaborative Project Water is a scarce resource in Forney, Texas. Thus, the basis for our design proposal is focused on maximizing the usage of water present on the site. By creating a network of water filtering channels which utilizes, filters and carries all the run off-waste of the site, we attempt to provide a system that decreases waste water.
