While the discussion of St. Louis’s vacancies is an international and controversial one, “peripheral exchanges” captures the current condition of vacancies in anticipation of future economic growth and its implied increased density. The vacancies in Central West End facilitate interaction and connectivity between people and the Architecture captures those peripheral exchanges. The overlapping and undulating roofs are derived from the overlapped distorted perspectives of the context’s gable roofs. This Nutrition Research and Resource Center dually serve Central West End’s science community and the health needs of its immediate community. 1 Mechanical Room + Storage 2 Administration 3 Office 4 Reading Room 5 Conference Room 6 Workshop Assembly 7 Waiting Room 8 Food Lab 9 Nutrition Lab 10 General Stacks 11 Computer Station 12 Circulation Desk 13 Main Entry 14 Library Reserves

bridging the boundaries gutter to gulf studio, phase iv

critic derek hoeferlin research in collab w univ.of toronto landscape architecture size 15,200 square feet site st. bernard parish, louisiana program wellness retreat center Landscape and its respective ecologies adapt over time. It is vital to create Architecture that similarly adapts. Situated on the 40 Arpent Canal, between Bayou Dupree and the Mississippi River, this critical landscape is characterized by four main conditions: a Hardwood Forest, a Drainage Canal, an Earthen Levee, and decayed wetlands. The possible opening of the Mississippi River Diversion will divert fresh water to the Mississippi River Gulf Outlet and has huge potential to rebuild the vital wetlands while temporarily flooding the landscape of St. Bernard Parish. Whether or not this happens, the Wellness Retreat Center bridges over all landscapes and is elevated to withstand flooding and soil regrowth while dually hindering the growth of an invasive plant species by restricting sunlight.

strange attractors (an)other addition to the kimbell art museum

actual site

critic robert mccarter size 52,250 square feet site fort worth, texas program museum addition for contemporary art Renzo Piano made a controversial change in his siting strategy for the addition to the Kimbell, from the publicized East site to the West. In doing so, the strategy demolished the grove of Yaopon holly trees and compromised the approach to the museum by blocking West-gaining light into the portico entry. A tower was designed with a small footprint that creates a campus with several smaller structures. Why a tower? A tower accomplishes an understated tension that respects the landmark museum while maintaining a bold approach to design. The addition was sited to maximize sequence and circulation.
