Comprehensive Studio 2019 Raleigh, North Carolina, USA
In downtown Raleigh, a park renovation of Moore Square was completed in the summer of 2019. What was once a dilapidated and relatively unused public space in the middle of the city is now a vibrant and particularly active space. On weekends, numerous Raleigh organizations hold events and festivals on the park’s grounds. Yoga and CrossFit groups gather on the newly manicured green space in the square’s center to relax and improve fitness. Adjacent to the park’s southeastern corner, a vacant lot exists. In order to continue to bring activity and liveliness to the immediate area, the following project presents an indoor soccer facility that responds to the site’s urban conditions. Soccer isn’t new to the Triangle area. Some master plans of a portion of the downtown area feature a soccer stadium and North Carolina has the largest youth soccer association in the country. Not only would this facility strengthen the viability of Moore Square as an important public space, the game of soccer is hyper inclusive. No matter your age, race, gender, or financial situation, all that is required is the desire to have fun.

GREEN SPACE
The site for the project is on the corner at the intersection of East Martin and South Person streets. It is important to note the difference between the speed and primary direction of these two roads. Person St is a one-way thoroughfare that is usually highly trafficked and at speeds that are on the higher end of downtown travel. Despite faster moving vehicular traffic, there are places to parallel park on the side of the square. As is evident in the render on the left, this was chosen as the more guarded edge of the project. Contrary to what may seem an obvious architectural move, locating the project’s entrance directly across from the square, the entrance is instead pulled away from this hectic axis.
Unlike Person St, Martin St is a much slower, pedestrian friendly axis. Not only is Martin St coming directly from the center of downtown, it is along two significant Raleigh destinations. The middle of Moore Square, an area already discussed in length, has a major pedestrian plaza and outlet path in the direction of the site. City Market, a development with small shops and restaurants has outlets and entrances across Martin St as well. A response to the implied movement of the Moore Square plaza and the interest of the existing commercial hub would be to locate the entrance further down Martin St. To increase public interest for the project, the main indoor soccer court would be located directly on the corner. The passerby is kept engaged and made a part of the project’s overall experience.
On the northeastern corner of the site there is a small green space shaded by two oak trees. Considering that future developments are inevitable in the parking areas on the east edge of the site, it would be responsible to preserve this existing green space and use it as a place of relaxation and privacy on the north-facing portion of the project. It can also be utilized as public green space that penetrates and maintains a green buffer between this building and any building that is erected beside it in the future. In this case it seemed a better approach to let the project’s footprint pull away from the east edge of the site so that this green strip can be maintained.

PAVILION
Architectural Prototypes 2019 Raleigh, North Carolina, USA Collaboration with Erin Kopf Point of Contact is a conceptual pavilion designed to reside temporarily in Dorothea Dix Park in Raleigh, NC. By utilizing a module-based approach in the construction of the pavilion, the pieces could be reassembled rather quickly elsewhere after its indefinite stay in the park. The pavilion’s purpose is two part: to capture the technical wonder of a Raleigh artist’s experimentation with ambisonic sound and to create an architecturally interesting space that challenges ideas of inside and outside and individual part to the whole. The full-scale physical mock-up, presented here, shows the construction technique and a portion of the subtracted volume from the pavilion’s interior. For Point of Contact, a metal clip and fastener system has been developed to simultaneously hold the shape of each individual joining of surface material and provide the bridge connection to the next box. By using Rhino as a design tool, the team was able to iterate on a number of different overall pavilion forms. A 3D printed model and series of conceptual renders help to tell the story of the team’s most developed form.

SOUND SUBTRACTION
Ambisonic sound differs greatly from stereo sound. The diagram on the left demonstrates the ability of ambisonic sound to completely surround a specified, central location for an enhanced listening experience. By combining the principles of this ambisonic sound diagram with the need for an interesting architectural pavilion, ‘Point of Contact’ was conceived. The interior space of the assembled pavilion is mostly spherical, allowing for the installation of programmed speakers that work to provide a listener with an ambisonic sound experience. There is an entry and exit on opposite sides of the pavilion. The walls of these more transparent faces push into the overall form so that the entries and exits are both expressed and covered for the user.

PLANS
Architecture International Studio 2018 Masaryk Station, Prague, Czech Republic A large, primarily vacant brownfield extends from Masaryk Station to the base of Vitkov Hill right in the heart of Prague. This brownfield is bisected by regional train tracks and is almost never traversed on foot by the public. For this reason, it has remained an area of spatial confusion, misunderstanding, and neglect. PENTA, a major property investor operating in large European cities, and Zaha Hadid Architects have developed a plan for the area: the Central Business District in Prague. The public has loosely supported the proposal mainly because it is the only one they’ve truly seen. A closer look reveals several public interest flaws. This project features a new proposal in the form of a regulation plan for the area with the hope that the public may take greater responsibility for such an opportunity in the middle of the city. By first connecting a critical circulation path across the brownfield, the public may begin to get a realistic understanding of just how much space is available. Following this initial intervention, the public would be informed on alternate plans for how this site could be divided between many different stakeholders.

67
POINTS OF CRITICISM: The program consistently represented in this render and those that follow are strictly business and commercial. The “Central Business District”, as it has been named, includes a rather small demographic that is non-representative of Prague. In this render there is also public green space that appears to be “protected” or not intended for gathering. A vibrant area of the city shouldn’t prohibit the use of green space, instead it should be utilized.

70
POINTS OF CRITICISM: One major representational aspect of the Hadid renders is that they lack imagery that suggests that this master planning project is in Prague. In this render specifically, instead of seeing adjacent city blocks and familiar Prague contexts, you are given hypermodern, nonreferential building forms. Practically, the primary public green space shown here is directly beside a rather busy Na Florenci St. A closer look would suggest that there is more space and oppurtunity on the inner side, adjacent the regional railroad tracks. Also, orientationally, this side of the project would be in shadow a majority of the time.

POINTS OF CRITICISM: Although there is an undoubtable need for creating pedestrian connections across the current brownfield, there are some practical issues with the large structure proposed to span the regional tracks and the connection further toward away from the station. The structure over the tracks may serve as a public space for gathering or waiting, however without a certain percentage of penetrations, the platform underneath would quickly become darkened and potentially unpleasant. As for the path further up the tracks, it currently terminates directly into the side of a historic rail control building. Again, a connection is necessary but a more intentional intervention with directional purpose would be beneficial.

UMSTEAD STATE PARK
NATURE
HOTEL
Junior Year Spring Studio 2017 Raleigh, North Carolina, USA William B. Umstead State Park is a short 15 minute drive northwest of downtown Raleigh. Roughly 8.7 miles of preserved forests and water features are available as a natural getaway for residents or visitors to the Triangle. The park access right off of I-40 is the location of this project, a nature hotel. Several chain hotels populate the area because of its proximity to the Raleigh Durham Airport. This hotel seeks to break from the norm by utilizing natural elements to make a user’s stay memorable and meditative. The project is directly adjacent to the existing parking lot at the access. The hotel works to preserve and enhance the essence of the park through specific programmatic decisions and through an adjoined boutique spa. The hotel’s form is lifted above the park grounds and provides spectacular views of the area to the north. The sunken spa spaces to the south provide a relaxing experience to someone wanting a serene getaway. The lobby and cafe hover at tree canopy level, keeping visitors ever close to the natural wonder of Umstead State Park.

PROGRAM
The circulation diagram, like the building program, can be broken into two major axes: one connecting new arrivals to the vertical hotel volume and the other connecting spa-goers to the trails that populate the park grounds. The lower entry and hotel lobby are connected by a public monumental stair. For privacy purposes, the floors with rooms for visitors are connected by only an elevator and two fire stairs.
ENCLOSURE
STRUCTURE
ORIENTATION
The project’s program diagram can be broken into two major parts: the sunken boutique spa and the raised hotel spaces. In order to increase the feelings of relaxation and meditation and accentuate sunlight and views to the sky, the spa is buried within the earth. In order to increase visual interest to the park to the north and to house more visitors, the hotel program extends vertically in a narrowly organized volume.
CIRCULATION
120
The project’s orientation was logically decided based on passive solar strategies and primary view glazing opportunity. The core volumes of the hotel act as a the primary solar shield against the project’s southern face. The break on the south face corresponds to the cantilevered cafe and nature overlook. It also ensures that the landing/elevator lounge for each floor is a naturally lit public space.
The project’s structure is a combination of steel and concrete. The core elements serve as shear prevention and the steel structure is tied back to these load bearing walls. A spacious column grid penetrates the floor slabs and helps to open each plan up. The remaining structure for the sunken spa and entrance drive is cast in place concrete. As a material concept, the concrete helps to accentuate the projects relation to the ground and gives it a certain grudge appropriate for the site.
The enclosure diagram includes both the enclosure of the hotel’s raised program and the enclosure of the surrounding forest. On the east and west facades of the vertical form, wood panels accentuate the suspended nature of the program and serve as a direct relation to the surrounding vegetation. The trees preserved tightly to the hotels footprint act as a green buffer to the nearby park access and also reinforce the elements of seclusion and privacy that are integral to the project.
