COMPLETED: University of Michigan SITE LOCATION: Jefferson Chalmers Neighborhood of Detroit, MI PROJECT TYPE: Residential ADDITIONAL TEAM MEMBERS: Erica Morrissey, Judy Zhang

This project proposal is located on the Detroit River. The site is rich in history both environmentally and geographically. It borders a man-made canal on the left, and A.B. Ford Park to the right. The Detroit River served as a huge anchor of industry and transportation for the city. However, due to the topography of the site and neighborhood at large, it has caused severe flooding in the neighborhood. With this site being in a rather desirable space with the canals, waterfront, and new community center and park, the neighborhood has made efforts to make this space more available to the residents. The idea of preserving the natural environment and creating space for non-human inhabitants has influenced the design process. Moments of hydrology have created the combination of preservation, community, and activity.

01 This section perspective shows how members of the community live in the space. The structural components are presented, as well. The foundation, roof, walls, and floors use a hyrbrid system of stone, CLT, and steel. The rainwater collection system through the central funnel is stored under the earth. The graywater is then reused.

COMPLETED: University of Michigan SITE LOCATION: Ann Arbor PROJECT TYPE: Movie Theather ADDITIONAL TEAM MEMBERS: None

In Ann Arbor, Michigan, the annual film festival is considered the one of the most prominent events of the theater’s year. This film festival will take place in the last week of September and brings together movie-goers from all over to experience a variety of events, openings, and films. This theater centers around deaf design and how other senses make a cinema experience special. 70 million people around the world are completely deaf, and 20% have some level of hearing loss. 500,000 people in the United States use sign language as their native language, and as of 2019, about 736,900 cochlear implants have been administered worldwide. In particular, exceptional visuals will support the hearing impaired through the building. Visuals of patterns, symmetry, and softness ease the mind and support wayfinding through order. The open-concept rooms have curved elements to allow those to experience one space at a time. The Elastic Cinema caters to visitors with hearing impairments but supports anyone who wishes to view a film. Through different design techniques, hearing impaired movie-goers experience bold sensations and monumental films.

02 This plan displays the spatial organization of an open floor plan. The section shows the lighting conditions of several spaces. Lighting plays a huge role in this building because those hard of hearing look to visuals to navigate. That is why rich colors and patterns are used in the representation of this project. The experience of viewing this project is similar to one’s experience in this building. Intense colors overwhelm one’s eye to be contrast to the possible lack of a sense.

1. THE EVENT SPACE & RESTAURANT INCLUDES DIFFERENT SEATING OPTIONS, ALONG WITH A FULL KITCHEN AND BAR. 2. THE PATIO CONNECTS TO THE EVENT SPACE & RESTAURANT AND HAS PRIVATE SEATING NODES TO DISCUSS FILMS IN SMALLER GROUPS OR IN MORE PRIVACY. 3. THE CURVED WALLS ALLOW THE VISITORS TO BE CHANNELLED INTO SPACES. THE REMOVAL OF WALLS OCCURS TO CREATE MORE CIRCULATION. 4. THIS CONCESSIONS STAND IS IN A CLOSE PROXIMITY TO ALL THEATERS. 5. THIS LOUNGE IS A CENTRALLY LOCATED PLACE TO GATHER BEFORE OR AFTER FILMS. 6. THIS TICKET BOOTH IS SEEN WHEN SOMEONE ENTERS THE BUILDING. 7. THIS EXTERIOR THEATER IS SEEN FROM THE STREET BUT HAS PRIVACY. 8. THIS SEATING INSTALLATION IS MOVIE-GOERS A BREAK FROM SITTING IN THEATERS. 9. THE LIBRARY IS A PUBLIC SPACE THAT PRIVIDES A HISTORY OF THE FILMS SHOWN AT THIS CINEMA AND PROJECTS THE COMING ATTRACTIONS. 10. THE DOUBLE HEIGHT LARGE THEATER IS A GREAT ACOUSTIC SETTING FOR VIEWING MOVIES. 11. THIS SMALL THEATER HAS ANOTHER THEATER OF THE SAME SIZE STACKED ON TOP OF IT.

COMPLETED: University of Michigan SITE LOCATION: Ann Arbor, Michigan PROJECT TYPE: Healthcare ADDITIONAL TEAM MEMBERS: Matthew Mansour, Patrick Wilton

This prototype of a hospital patient room for the VA Hospital in Ann Arbor is designed to benefit not only patients but also healthcare workers and the patients’ families. Designed specifically for comfort, difficult conversations that happen in this room were considered. Biophilic design is incorporated to make everyone in the room feel more connected to nature. The interior and lighting design are studied the most in this space. The hierarchy the healthcare professional has standing over the patient occurs frequently, given the environment. The redesign of this space considers these facts. The layout allows significant room for everyone to move around. The focus on interior and lighting design captivates the space and brings attention to the details. Everything chosen for this space is specifically for the people who will use it. Patients, healthcare professionals, and families of the patients all need to have a great experience in this space, despite the difficult conversations that take place in this room. In order to make the patient feel more comfortable when being evaluated or receiving news, the design includes many elements to look at. The tatami floor mats are divided to show the patient, family, and healthcare professional zones. The wood material provides a natural element and is more sustainable. A lighter color is used for the wood and paint to add a more comforting feel. The large window also provides views to nature.

26.


27.


03 The furniture included in this space matches the wood on the walls. The comfortable yet functional furniture in the room is mostly used by the patients’ families. The biophilic feel provides further comfort to everyone who visits and works in this space. Inspired by meditation spaces, the ceiling and lighting were particularly considered in this project. When patients are in the hospital beds, they spend much time noticing the ceiling. Although downlighting near the bed is necessary for evaluations, harsh lighting would not help the uncomfortable case patients are in. To soften the lighting, cove lights along the walls were added. This combined with the natural light is not overwhelming for the patient. The ceiling is a metal sheet with circles punched through to see the lights. The lights are hidden into the ceiling to direct the light in various ways.

COMPLETED: University of Michigan SITE LOCATION: Laver, Sweden (but adaptable to other sites) PROJECT TYPE: City Planning ADDITIONAL TEAM MEMBERS: None

Due to climate change and the ever present threat of global shifting, trade routes will change in the future. This will reflect how people will migrate to different sections of the world that are colder because the earth is too warm. New cities can be built on existing ghost towns to prioritize environmental heatlh. Ghost towns are an essential part of urban planning and revitalization around the world. Without them, the threat of dwindling populations would not exist. They are a necessary example for the future potential of other shrinking cities. These new developments will prove that the idea of trade routes are timeless on earth but global warming is not. The presented city will be an example that can be flexible and adapted to any ghost town in the future. This city is focused on environmental health, and its values reflect this. They are a mark of the past and can be reformed for the future. The reuse would give purpose to leftover structures. There are several ghost towns within these promising regions. These six towns are the some of the best options for many reasons. They all are near water, have remaining infrastructure, and or are not in danger of repetitive natural disasters. This city structure presented could be adapted to be used on any of these ghost towns, but this example uses Laver, Sweden.

32.


33.


04 Changes in precipitation, dryness, daily temperatures, trade routes, a rise in sea levels, and regions uninhabited by humans create the environmental factors that impact climate change. Other factors include the climate policy rankings and readiness and vulnerabiltiy rankings. Each of these take many datasources into account to rank the best countries. Based on these maps overlapped and the global statistics, the map on the far right shows the regions that would be good to move to due to the climate changing. Also shown are six ghost towns in promising countries and regions.

There are several reasons why Laver, Sweden was chosen for this example, but its adaptability was one of the biggest reasons. Underneath each general value, there are several subvalues. There are many components that go into each value, and there is a way to accomplish each one in this new community. These diagrams show only a few of the techniques used to build up the ghost town. Many of these include energy efficient systems and sustainable lifestyles. Prioritizing the environment while also considering the best ways people live is important to the identity of this city.

COMPLETED: University of Illinois SITE LOCATION: Los Angeles, CA PROJECT TYPE: Food Bank ADDITIONAL TEAM MEMBERS: None

This steel structure food bank in Los Angeles resides in a low-income area where 74.2% did not complete high school education. This design revolves around keeping children in good physical health with nutrition, education, and exercise. With twenty-three schools in a ten minute or less drive away, the food bank includes several spaces in order for children of all ages to thrive. The form has many angled walls to create a mountain-like structure. The triangle panels are simple yet fun aspects to the design, which also diffuses the noise surrounding the site and inside the warehouse. The exterior materials are curtain wall glazing, concrete panels, and orange polycarbonate sheets. When looking at the site, the people interacting with it were the first aspect noticed. The focus is on children, but another large focus is that the delivery truck drivers, volunteers, and the general public have positive experiences. The climate is considered when analyzing the energy data, which is used to place materials.

40.


41.


05 This plan includes the interior and exterior programs added specifically for children. This includes a daycare, a climbing room, and various jungle gyms. The food storage and loading docks are on the opposite side of the building. There are separate entrances for both. The site plan shows the dramatic difference between this building and the rest of the surrounding context. This will bring in more children because they will be excited to visit a fun-looking building.

05 This structural system uses concrete and steel to brace together the several material panels. Polycarbonate sheets, concrete panels, and curtain walls are all used to create the triangular forms. The pratt truss system supports these panels. These structural components also allow for cross ventilation throughout the warehouse space and sound diffusion off the building. An energy analysis was done using Covetool to determine that the materials and systems used were sufficient.

07 F A I R G R O U N D S F U N C T I O N S COMPLETED: Professional Architecture Firm SITE LOCATION: Fairgrounds PROJECT TYPE: Mixed-Use ADDITIONAL TEAM MEMBERS: Populous

This project was worked on with the architecture firm Populous. For a fairground, two new buildings would be a new staple of the fair. The first building is the showcase building, which functions similar to a museum. There are gallery spaces to learn about the history of the area. The following building is perpendicular to the first. This is the multi-purpose agriculture building. This space is very flexible and can adhere to many different events.

In both of these buildings, the floor plans were revised several times. Working through schematic design, the details of the buildings were looked at. Code requirements and occupancy counts were studied, as well. These images are only several of the many documents worked on at Populous.
