DESIGN SHOWCASE 2018

Welcome to CoAD! This Design Showcase takes place during a year of milestones for the College –the 10th anniversary of the establishment of the School of Art + Design, and the 45th anniversary of the founding of the New Jersey School of Architecture in 1973, the event that transformed the Newark College of Engineering into the New Jersey Institute of Technology.

The presence of multiple disciplines under one roof here at the College mirrors an increasing emphasis on interdisciplinary cross-fertilization in higher education generally. Our classes and programs regularly involve a mix of students from mechanical engineering, bio-medical engineering, information technology and theater among other disciplines. Similarly, a number of our faculty are presently engaged in cross-disciplinary research with colleagues from these departments plus math, physics, and humanities. This is why we are constantly striving to increase the breadth of firms and alumni represented each year in Design Showcase – on the organizing committee, the work on display, and the sponsored tables.

Perhaps this abbreviated look at recent accomplishments by our students and faculty can convey some idea of the quality and diversity of our community: Prof. Maria Hurtado de Mendoza’s published a monograph on her firm’s work, Clinical: An Architecture of Variation with Repetition.

Prof. Georgeen Theodore published a new book, The Arsenal of Exclusion & Inclusion, with her firm Interboro Partners, which offers a glossary of mechanisms used to embrace or discourage full participation in our civic realm.

Outgoing AIAS NJIT President Mike Chiappa, BA Interior Design ‘15 and M.Arch ’18, was elected Northeast Quadrant Director on the 2018-2019 AIAS Board of Directors, the first CoAD student to hold national office in AIAS. His predecessor at our AIAS NJIT Chapter, Ryan Cusack, B.Arch ‘17, was elected to the NAAB Board of Directors, the national accrediting body for schools of architecture.

Associate Dean John Cays completed a 3-year term on the ACSA Board of Directors and was also elected to serve on the NAAB Board of Directors. It’s a CoAD takeover!

The renovation of the Mostoller Reading Room within our Littman Library nears completion and is already populated by student and faculty exhibitions and scholarly colloquia organized by Maya Gervits, our innovative librarian.

Senior University Lecturer David Brothers, coordinator of the Interior Design Program, was named one of the “25 Most Admired Educators” by DesignIntelligence for 2017-2018.

47 different A+D students had work selected for and shown at the curated Student Work Exhibit at SIGGRAPH in Los Angeles; a bio-mechanical character by Carl Ravensbergen, selected as the “cover image” for the onsite program announcement.

So once again we thank you for being here to see and celebrate our incredible student and alumni work. Your support enables us to grow, improve, innovate and provide the best opportunities for our students.

A MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN OF CoAD Last summer a group of architecture and design deans met in Rhode Island with representatives of Tremco, Inc., a roofing and building materials supplier and maintenance company interested in developing ties with research programs at schools of architecture. In a conversation with their regional sales and product development manager, I mentioned NJIT’s ranking by the New York Times as first in the nation for upward mobility in terms of students from the bottom fifth of the income ladder who end up in the top three-fifths. This statistic resonated with the Tremco manager, who talked about going to work as a longshoreman at age 16 to supplement his family’s income.

These numbers resonate with me as well.

Having taught at the College for nearly forty years, I am well aware of the financial sacrifices families make to put their children through college, as well as the heavy workload many of our students carry outside school to support themselves. This appreciation for the value of hard work is a distinguishing trait in our student body, one that will serve them well in their future careers.

Our job as educators is to match their commitment with our own, and to support them in every way we can as they negotiate their college years.

Design Showcase plays an important role in this process. It provides an opportunity for our students to share their work, to view the professional work of our graduates, and to meet and talk with representatives from architecture and design firms and the building industry. It is our most important fundraising event of the year, with proceeds used to support major new initiatives within the College and also to provide support for student activities. Alumni are also the principal source of student scholarships. At present the College distributes over $100,000 through different scholarships each year.

I welcome you, our alumni and industry visitors, to this signature event and thank you for your role in supporting our students and, especially, employing them! Your confidence in our graduates will be repaid many times over.

A MESSAGE FROM THE SHOWCASE CO-CHAIRS Welcome! It’s great to have you here at the College of Architecture and Design’s (CoAD) annual Design Showcase. Now in its 12th year, this Design Showcase marks the momentous milestones as we celebrate 45 years of the NJ School of Architecture and 10 years of the School of Art + Design.

Whether you’re a current student, recent or tenured alumnus, or an industry professional; we want to thank you for your continued support of our students and programs. The success of our program is attributed to your involvement and attendance tonight. Thank you for joining us and the rest of the NJIT family as we celebrate design excellence of current and former College of Architecture and Design students. CoAD continues to embrace technology-enabled design and is committed to a broad intellectual foundation that prepares our graduates not only as young professionals but also as citizens ready to engage the issues of the day.

Under the direction of Interim Dean Tony Schuman, and Directors Glenn Goldman and Gernot Riether, our students are taught to invent, to take risks and to immerse themselves in the design process. Their work demonstrates bold and forward thinking, while addressing complex and timely problems locally, nationally and beyond. These talented students dealing with, the world of daily reality as well as purely imaginary realms. They are encouraged to consider the implications of their work by diverse measures - ethical, social, environmental and financial.

Our Gala also celebrates alumni! The skills and knowledge of CoAD’s alumni benefit society at large and have a profound impact on our region’s economic development. As demonstrated in the exhibited designs, CoAD alumni shape our environment through impactful buildings, interiors, fashion and products. Our graduates are also developing new intellectual property and serve as indispensable advisers to industry and government.

This year we’re excited that our lecture features an alumnus from CoAD, Karen Cilento Ekshian ’12, and founder of Marvel Architects, Guido Hartray, who will discuss the transformation of the former Central High School into the Central King Building, serving as a hub for education and research in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). The restored Central King Building provides a critical anchor for community redevelopment in Newark by transforming the building into a visual landmark and an educational destination.

Many people have labored to make this exhibit a success. Our fellow committed members and alumni volunteers have given hundreds of hours of their time; the CoAD staff have worked diligently and our sponsors have generously contributed time and funds to support the program, and to support scholarships at the school. All this time and effort is intended to enable ambitious, talented young people to develop their design skills and contribute to the community at-large.

Thank you for taking part in this event. We hope that you will be inspired by the work of our alumni and students, and will benefit from strengthening your relationships with them. Enjoy the Showcase!

A NOTE OF THANKS TO THE DEAN’S EXECUTIVE COUNCIL The College of Architecture and Design would have been unable to implement many of our new initiatives without the Design Showcase and the fundraising efforts of the Dean’s Executive Council. This group of alumni conceived of the event, implemented the criteria and standards, and has helped to keep it running for a decade. It is with much gratitude that we say thank you to the members of the Dean’s Executive Council.

PARK 80 WEST PLAZA 1 - ASSET REPOSITION 1970 precast concrete office building by Frank Grad & Sons, Newark NJ. New ownership group desired thoughtful modernization to increase the value of the asset.

G3 designed and developed a program of improvements to the faรงade, windows, exterior lighting and site improvements, and HVAC systems.

669 RIVER DRIVE, SUITE 100 ELMWOOD PARK, NJ 07407 201.794.0444 G3ARCH.COM

G3 managed the project from due diligence through occupancy; coordinating budget, schedule and a large project team. The entire scope ultimately came within 5% of the initial budget.

The revitalized Plaza 1 is almost fully leased, as a result of increased interest in the property.

Solutions Architecture has grown exponentially in the past years both in employees and customers with no signs of stopping. After deciding on Verona as our new location, significant interior renovations were made to a previous office space to create a new modern open work space. With the entire office participating in one way or another, all the loose ends eventually came together to design a space that would meet all our needs. Everything from the floor finishes to the lighting illustrate a capacity for design and sets our office apart.

Over the course of 4 years, Mountainside Schools have been transformed, both inside and out, via a much needed $19M referendum. The vestibule’s green metal panels and bold signage serve as a focal point displaying the school’s colors and providing a wayfinding tool for visitors, all while allowing for improved visibility and heighten security before visitors enter the school. The Media Center was entirely reorganized as they look towards a more technology based library curriculum, allowing for more flexibility and collaborative learning environments.

VALENTINE

Over the years the Wanamassa Elementary School has outgrown itself and this time it needed to expand with additional classrooms and a new gymnasium. Before the addition was complete, gym classes were held in the auditorium and there was no cafeteria. With a separate Gymnasium the auditorium is now used as a cafeteria. The addition was designed to blend into the context of the existing building but then shifts to a more contemporary style at the new entry lobby and gymnasium.

We’ve worked with them to renovate their offices and create not only a more functioning space but also a space that better reflects the work that they do. Using primary colors in their reception area as well as accent walls along with overlapping surfaces and forms we’ve transformed a bland office space into a space that visually tells a story of the work that they do.

As Midland Park school District continues to grow, the need for space grows along with it. While The Board of Education offices have been situated at the High School for years, it can no longer afford the space. Instead an under utilized and forgotten storage building has been chosen to house the new offices so the school can reclaim the old spaces. The entire barn went through significant changes to incorporated a fully functioning modern office space. We embraced the notion of reusing a barn to preserve much of the rustic structure and texture.

In a sparsely populated area of Kearny, NJ dedicated towards manufacturing and distribution, students were asked to put on hats to become various actors: Someone who worked for organizations such as NJ Transit, or represented NJ’s Tourism Bureau, etc. These actors bring to the table five “must haves” for the architect. With seven actors and five rules each, it was at an imaginary conference table where students could take off their agency’s hat and envision the site for themselves.

This proposal seeks to maintain its identity as a distribution and manufacturing hub while also bringing new life and features to the site that cater to the demands set forth by the seven agencies at play. The main idea is to foster an environment where humans, drones, animals, and a booming manufacturing industry can all thrive in. This is done by looking at scale, symbiotic relationships, and exchange loops. Examples of this including symbiotes of program attach to existing and new buildings, drones transport

animals over busy roads and help to upkeep the site, waste gets collected to be incinerated for energy, etc. Scale is looked at more closely through inhabitant and spatial relationships. The future vision for this site of Kearny is not one that exists solely for the manufacturing as it does today, but rather a site that has the potential to become a catalyst for ways of coexisting and exchanging at a variety of scales that would enable a thriving environment for all the actors at play.

01. POLICIES:

03. INPUTS / OUTPUTS:

Tax Cut: The greater Harrison Municipality has projected for Harrison tenants, or close by, will occupy the abandoned warehouse for the different stages of food processing.

These subsidies will allow for a sense of locality within a larger food import and export network.

Sharing Economy: The system hosts a degree of communal understanding of food processing.

Residents need to have similar values in perspective in food locality and community knowledge to motivate the system to work.

It acts as a Food Museum.

Down-zoning: In order to preserve the Harrison historical buildings, such as this warehouse, the government proposes downzoning around the area to recreate the shell for a node for food logistics.

04. SECTION:

Macro: The temperature-controlled warehouse acts as a food hub for different types of products to maintain or transform into other food products. The process of food transformation creates an access loop in which each product would be stored within the warehouse for varying time.

Therefore, the quantity of inputs and outputs are not constant.

The temperature controlled segments are laid out from warmest to coolest to create a smooth temperature transition. Segments are connected and maintained through a central heating and cooling unit above the rooms. Between each space, there is a plastic strips divider for the temperature captured pods to travel from room to room.

LANDSCAPE: A existing warehouse resured structure where food meets people, as a response to the post industrial state of Harrisonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s built fabric, where the old warehouses may be seen as undesirable, we situate this altercation as a way to explore the physiological conditions food maturing processes creates and how it participates as an economic and experiential institute within the larger food hub network.

As a site for wine-making, cheese-aging and meat-curing, this climatically diverse site is not particularly meant for human interaction, however, we see this psychological incoherence as a thrilling opportunity to create human intervention in non-human environment.

06. TYPOLOGIES:

Temperature controlled environment is crucial to a food KXE /DUJH VSDFHV DUH UHJXODWHG DW VSHFLĂ&#x20AC;F WHPSHUDWXUH ranges to faciltiy the growth, processing, packaging, and preservation of food. As warehouses have the capacity of large open spaces, it is easy to install temperature controlling mechanical equiptment and replace cladding material on warehouse frames, it is ideal to convert exsiting underused warehouses to new food hub facilities.

The diagram below shows concentration of where existing warehouses are and can be converted to food hub facilities in the short run. smaller regional food processing companies are able to rent out portions of the warehouse instead of tranditionally larger companies owning the entire facility, food hub allows for an aggregation of smaller businessed and the buildings should also support the diversity in sizes and types.

Micro: To allow for human interaction within a heavily temperature and humidity controlled space, a series of temperature-captured cable pods are suspended from the existing tracks within the warehouse. The temperature-captured pod would absorb excess heat from the interactors within the space as energy, at the same time, completely secluded from affecting the well-maintained atmosphere of the food collectings. It acts as an educational tool to raise awareness of how the foods are made, altering their perception towards stereotypical understanding of warehouses and frozen foods.

from 7

Scalable: Flexibility in future growth

Open Frame: Transparency

07. AESTHETIC: The aesthetic of the physiological warehouse is formed by the understanding of the temperature-maintained space with its relation to food, environment, and body. The right demonstrates the image of the warehouse, material and mass appearance. The left demonstrates the aesthetic of the warehouse, with its value being formed by the ability of temperature control for food storage or productions.

Plastic Divider for Cable Cars: 20 Guyon Drive is a large abondoned warehouse holding open plan structure that allows for wide variaty of programs to occupy and replace the original shell (currently parking spaces). The space contains the industial factory aesthetic, a translation of practicality.

By stripping away the existing warehouse cladding to its core structure, the enclosure of the warehouse can now be steered towards establishing a facility for a food hub. Typically, warehouses are occupied and owned by large companies. By subdividing a large warehouse into smaller areas, it allows for smaller businesses to gather and share the space, thus creating a diversity in use. The open frame structure also allows for transparency in the design of large buildings, along with other programmatic approach, this building attempts to approach the community as a component of a food hub instead of segregating.

,QĂ&#x20AC;OO Interchangeable

C to -18 C

The Design Institute is strongly nested within the collection of military ruins. The idea is to build within the existing structure, nesting the two programs, similar to a program sandwich.

The fridge has a round base enriched by wooden shelves and remains consistently between 10 to 12 degrees celcius thoughout the year without the need of electricity. It could be used to store produce such as vegetables, wine, ir cheese. The storage capacity is comatable to 20 standard refrigerators.

The freight truck carries stored food regionally, increasing accessibility to stocked items. It usually uses refrigeration to increase the life time of the food items.

A refrigerator is a mutual meeting point where family would frequently interact with for food.

01. POLICIES: Informal Market: Co-constructing economically in which it allows street vendors to have a low barrier of entry. Since the bridge is allowing for deregulation of market typology, it allows for vending businesses of different sizes to compete.

03. INPUTS / OUTPUTS: Participatory Budgeting: After the implementation of participatory budgeting, the community can allocate public funds to realize the Market Bridge. Future maintenance can also be partially funded by public funds in combination with government help. This allows for general public to be part of a new coming community, this will be taken apart along with the subsidizes from the government to promote vision of the residents of Harrison.

Phase IV: The neighborhood started to occupy the market through crowd-funding, inserting different food kiosks within the bridge. Market Bridge begins to with aqua-pod productions as well as import and export of local produces.

The open frame market hall intersects vary scales of food logistics: from underwater aqua pods regional production, to packaging for import and export using barge boats, to local market consumption. New typology of collecting food emerged with the overlap of different nodes and production systems.

In this scheme, cranes are the key elements in transitioning between the different axis of food logistics: transporting cargo containers from ports to barge boats, then from barge to Market Bridge port; manipulation depth and harvests of aqua pods; relocating kiosks within the market hall. The Market Bridge is proposed in four phases, in which basic bridging platform is implemented across the river. Then, the schematic spatial frames are constructed along the bridge. Third phase include the partial implementation of permanent structures within. The last phase includes the co-construction, or crowd-funding to complete the necessary aesthetic of this food node.

07. AESTHETICS: The value of the bridge is formed by the informal settlement of the food tenants. In comparison, the right side of the image shows how a stereotypical understanding of a bridge would be functioned as, when tenants are not occupying the space.

Food market that creates a large interior street in which it allows for different tenants to interact with the visitors. It allows for informal settlement of food tenants.

A temporary food service that sell food to the general public.

Usually having a permanent, static location for a certain period of time in a rhythm.

A structure carrying a road, path, railroad, or canal across a river, ravine, road, railroad, or other obstacle. It creates connections between different nodes of place.

It is a temporary gathering or cluster of market, taken shape of the form of the space. It allows for informal growth of small scale economy.

Tax Cut: Functioning similar as a soup kitchen, the food recycling IDFWRU\ LV QRQ SURĂ&#x20AC;W EDVHG facility to encourage food circulations with reduced food prices. With the support of the governemnt, tax cut on farms and supermarkets for donating ugly food or non-chosen products can encourage business owners to rethink about food and waste, therefore, reducing food waste in the city.

Coorporative Community: The system hosts a degree of communal understanding of recycling food. Residents need to have similar values in perspective in food waste to motivate the system to work. If one element is not provided enough, or is being provided too much, the system would become unbalanced.

NGO: To sustain the food recycling system, a group of non-governmental organization, voluntary citizens would have to constantly educate residents the negatives of food waste, RU SURPRWH WKH EHQHĂ&#x20AC;WV RI donating excess food items.

It is to believe that through educational community outreach can maintain the balance of the food cycle.

Silos and factory typologies often give the impression of highly processed and preserved food, giving the expectation of cans, packaged, and frozen food. Silos are often used as storage units for dry crops, in some cases liquids for aging under certain temperatures. by drying or aging, it prevents food from decomposition and allow for freshness to be maintaned. In this aspiration, the silo factory is introduced into the urban fabric to change the perception of the typology, allowing for new program to emerge as well as an opportunity of education. As an object, silos are out of scale in an urban context, but it creates the neccessary attention for people to engage with the strangeness in comparison to the context.

4. Compost Distribution

The siloh factory containes multiple containers supporting one system to maximize the productivity. Usually used in agriculture to store grain or fermented feed. The large size of containers allows for bulk storage of food.

07. SCENARIO CO-CONSTRUCTION:

The freight truck carries stored food regionally, increasing accessibility to stocked items. It usually uses refrigeration to increase the life time of the food items.

5. Compose to Production

Developer housing is a new housing development which is marketed towards middle class, younger generation commuters. The housing block utilizes the location, of it being one block away from path station. It is forming a new form of community in Harrison, contrasting the local and the commuters as well as the existing wearhouse at its peripheral.

Informal Settlement By temporarily blocking off the street, it creates a platform for individuals to settle and occupy for a shirt period of time while allowing exchanges to take place. This helps create a diverse mix of products from different scales of production, allowing a chance for individuals to reach out to a larger consumer group.

Crowd Funding: The establishment of the street fair is funded by the shops adjacent to the street fair as well as street fair vendor participants.

This allows for a local community to be built with high participation on the budgeting of the fair.

Additionally, crowd funding could expand to the public who would attend the fair, allowing a higher level of community engagement.

The Food â&#x20AC;&#x153;Communeâ&#x20AC;? Facility is a designated site for food production, preservation, delivery and leisure among its many actors. The nodal approach of the facility is to allow short burst of logistics within a small radius in order to deliver produce at itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s peak ripeness and peak nutritional value. The â&#x20AC;&#x153;Communeâ&#x20AC;? name is a short hand for a Cooperative Community that may function through a co-ownership and co-maintenance amongst itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s users. Not explicitly a vehicle to escape capitalism, the values of the facility lie in the thought that infrastructure functions for the greater good, and not so much for capital gains.

The drone port tower takes a similar form of a pylon, where the structure and function is dominant, representing an infrastructure of our daily lives. The drone tower is attempting to represent the food network in a similar way, not to disrupt urban form but acts as a node of food supply. The short time delivery makes food to be delivered at the freshness peak in a short amount a time, and the tower symbolizes the diversity, speed, and reach of fresh food supply.

The aim of the Arcus Urbe building is to provide a healthy balance between positive community amenities and building density to compliment the northeast corridor transit network.

As such, it was necessary to provide direct connections between the building, Penn Stationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s platforms, and the public realm at ground level. The general massing of the building was carefully sculpted to accomplish this task while also creating more inviting spacial conditions along the street walls. One

D E S I G N

important consideration for this project was the role it would serve as an iconic landmark of the Ironbound and its culture. Keeping this in mind, much of the spatial language was accomplished via the use of an arched structural and ordering system . The system of arches manifest themselves both in key programmatic moments along the facade as well as through voids in the building which accomodate public circulation across the roof-top park in two directions. A strategy such as this creates a symphony of

S H O W C A S E

arches that offer sculptural and formal prowess to a very culturallly diverse section of the city. Overall, the project aims to see that objective become fully realized with consideration to both current and future needs for the surrounding neighborhood and city at large

IRONBOUND HINGE M I X E D - U S E H O U S I N G I N N E WA R K Architecture | Fall 2017 | Darius Sollohub

A N D

Location One is an extremely important site to Newark, and has a variety of economical, cultural, and logistical forces driving any design on the site. Located within the historic Ironbound community, bordering Newarkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budding Downtown, a mixed-use residential project must be contextually sensitive to the Ironbound and Ferry Street, but also has room to take advantage of the siteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proximity to Newark Penn Station and Downtown Newark.

D E S I G N

|

D E S I G N

In considering a high-rise building within the generally low-rise context of the Ironbound, finding a way to break down the scale of the building was crucial to the design. Borrowing from the dimensions and proportions of traditional storefronts and buildings along Ferry Street, a 24 foot grid was established for units to be arranged. Bundling units and creating towers allows for greater unit density, while also creating more corner units than a single or double loaded corridor. By manipulating the height of these

S H O W C A S E

units, one can break the scale of the building down in increasing increments. The scale breaks down further to create balconies, and eventually down to 6â&#x20AC;&#x2122; x 6â&#x20AC;&#x2122; platforms in a public connection to Mulberry Commons. In short, this project aims to take advantage of the growth in Newark without overwhelming the historic Ironbound, and offering greater connectivity between two distinct neighborhoods in Newark.

A Suburban Prototype LIFE AFTER WORK Architecture | Fourth Year | Keith Krumwiede

A N D

Increasingly, questions about the nature of work in an ever-more automated world are leading political economists, technologists and sociologists to consider the possibility of a future without labor, or, more accurately, without labor as it is currently defined. A Suburban Prototype is a model for a communal dwelling in such a world without work. The prototype revitalizes the suburban cul-de-sac; in other words brings life into the dead ends of the suburbs. The communal dwelling

D E S I G N

wraps around the cul-de-sac creating a suburban plaza for events and gatherings for the entire suburb. The first level spaces resemble those of the typical garage in which hobbies, garage bands and passionate start-ups replace cars. In a world in which work is replaced with leisure and hobbies these spaces become filled with diverse activites which can be shared with the members of the dwelling and beyond. The gardener, the baker, the â&#x20AC;&#x153;garage bandâ&#x20AC;?, the painter, and the woodworker all attract the life

The project design is a community clinic in Newark, New Jersey. The clinic will serve as a health care primary facility that can accommodate community activities and some form of social gathering as a complementary program. Due to the FEMA Flood Map of this location, a 100 years in the future, the water levels will rise 9 feet. Because of this research, the first design move was to raise the buildings onto pilotis above the flood levels. This allows the building to be able to avoid the

strong forces of the water. Following this is the use of parking underneath the structure. To then fix the dark parking area, the project uses light monitors that travel down into the central work floor and to the ground floor used for parking. This now introduces duality to the corridors allowing light and vegetation to grow.

The facade is a metal brise-soleil that changes on the orientation of the facade. The south facing facade protrudes outward to block the sun during the afternoon and the use of angled protru-

S H O W C A S E

sions on the west and east facades to prevent the early morning and evening sun rays. The north facade is flat to allow the ambient light into the healthcare clinic. The rooftop is a public rooftop garden that patience may use to relax and view the river. The project also introduces a second entrance into the esplanade so pedestrians can cut through the clinic to enter the esplanade quicker.

The facade of the complex features a repeating elevation that appears to be inherently classical, but plays with asymmetry in pattern as well as games of positivity and negativity throughout the site.

The Ambiguous Preservation Options Studio, in studying relationships between the historically old and the new, experimented with the role drawings have with visualizing and interpreting architecture. In order to capture the timelessness of the site’s predecessor, this project implements modern digital techniques to collage and construct drawings that emulate old styles. The result is an ambiguously newish-old character that captures the spirit of the original Bank of England.

Inspired by the works of FTL Studio, Lamp I simplifies complex forms and movements into a single unified object. The design process began with small form studies followed by an exploration of action and reaction. The joints mimic this sentiment by stimulating a theme found throughout FTL Studioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pavilions: soft forgiving materials like fabric are driven by rigid structural elements. In this case, the oak dowels are sculpting and informing the joints providing a cause and effect relationship.

D E S I G N

D E S I G N

Similarly, the joints take on the formal principles and softness of fabric while providing structural and visual balance to the composition as a whole. Lamp I turns on with the push of an in line switch configured on the wire, illuminating the lampâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eleven LEDs wired in parallel. Frosted acrylic finally softens the LEDs directional light. As a whole, Lamp I captures the same dynamic motions and relationships of the structures designed by FTL Studio while taking on its own simplistic form.

The Backbone Lounge is a furniture piece designed to mimic the form and exaggerated curve of a spine and vertebrae. The “vertebrae” along the top provide an ergonomic form on which the user’s spine can conform to, comfortably. This lounge was designed

with the intention of exploring different forms of wood bending. This design incorporates two different bending techniques, kerf bending and lamination. The “vertebrae” were bent using kerf cuts along sheets of plywood giving them a trapezoid shape. The

S H O W C A S E

“spine” was laminated using 20 sheets of 1/8” plywood which got glued together and clamped around a form to create its shape. These two bending styles come together to create one cohesive, aesthetic furniture piece.

Inspired by the natural curvature of a tidal wave, Curvature explores the ways in which paper can bend to create organic forms. The parameters of the project limited students to six 15” x 3” walls of material to create a space with a circulatory path towards a central domain. Curvature functions as an outdoor tidal clock influenced by its proposed location, in Nova Scotia, the Bay of Fundy. The Bay of Fundy experiences the highest change in tidal levels, thus reflecting its adaptability

D E S I G N

D E S I G N

and malleability to temporal changes. This tidal clock measures the hourly tidal change over a period of six hours. Due to the six hour time period, the upper left and right walls have five mathematically calculated gaps allowing for six levels to measure the rising tide every hour. The Northernmost wall is completely solid so viewers can visually understand the tidal changes from the absorbency of the wall’s material. When the tide has risen to its maximum height, the ocean will cover a majority of the structure

only revealing certain aspects of the arches. The arches and forms of each of the walls are organically crafted to compliment the kinetic nature of its surroundings. Specators should feel as if the space is synonymous with its location; Curvature should encourage visitors to admire natural forces and enhance one’s experience while acknowledging the clockwork of nature.

DYNAMIC DWELLING RESIDENTIAL DESIGN Interior Design | 2nd Year Studio | Adam Raiffe

This was an abandoned carriage house renovated for a young newlywed couple. My goal was to create a dynamic environment for the couple who would be working from home, socializing, and relaxing all under one roof. They requested to have a public space in the garage where they could socialize throughout the day without having to leave the house. In an attempt to address the rapid gentrification occurring

D E S I G N

D E S I G N

in Newark I wanted to create a space that would attract both the new and longtime residence and encourage interaction between the distant groups.

Newarkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rich history with art made it an obvious choice to make the garage a gallery featuring local artists who address the changes occuring in the c i t y.

I designed the space so the owners would have the opportunity to know what was going on in the

S H O W C A S E

gallery even when they are in their office so I placed the office on a mezzanine on the second floor that h a d v i s u a l a n d a u d i t o r y a c c e s s t o t h e g a l l e r y. M y goal to create a dynamic environment informed the design of the adaptable wall system between the living room and gallery and the convertible couches which allowed the home to easily shift between a private and public space.

A N D

The purpose of this memorial assignment was to design a site with atmospheric intervention for the purpose of a religious practice. Temple of Ashes is intended for visitors to mourn the death of a loved one through Hindu religious customs. In Hinduism, it is a core belief that every life has a soul and every soul has an invisible Karma that is determined by his or her behavior. When the body dies, the soul moves to another realm of existence based on Karma. After the soul endures

hell or is exhausted of the accumulated “virtues” in heaven, it enters pitruloka -“the realm of ancestors”- until birth/reincarnation to take place. To help the soul enter pitruloka, family members of the deceased perform rituals through the cremation, holding of the urn, and release of the ashes into holy waters. Temple of Ashes guides the visitor on a path that symbolically follows the custom of honoring the cremated remains of the deceased.

Mourners first pass the fire pit as a symbol of cremation. The

S H O W C A S E

centralized urn display focuses the visitors’ attention towards the ashes and evokes a sense of harmony with the soul of the dead.

The interior space contrasts in character from the exterior where mourners proceed to the water fountain as a way to release the grief associated with death and dying.

This project was a complete overhaul of an original 1800s carriage house in a Newark, New Jersey cemetery designed for hypothetical clients, John and Janice Richards The retired couple needed space for his passion, gardening, and her passion, baking. Not only is there ample space in the backyard for Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s passion, but I also designed a conservatory in the existing garage. The house is designed so that John can entertain the public in his conservatory, without disturbing the rest of

the house. Large french doors open up to the public street and expose Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s handiwork. Janice can choose to slide open the large farmhouse door between her bakerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kitchen and the conservatory to display her pastries for Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s guests. Also important to the couple was ample storage, organizational solutions, and easy-to-clean materials. I was able to provide a mudroom complete with a full wall of built-ins, as well as a generously sized pantry. Built-ins were also created in the conservatory, second

MOMENTS Office Office of the Future Interior Design | 3rd Year Studio | David Brothers

A N D

The Moments Office is designed as the next step for Activity Based Working. The workplace today is versatile and mobile, because thanks to technology, there is no longer a reason to stay shackled to a single chair or table. Workers can choose to work from within the comfort of their own homes, presenting presentations, communicating, etc. through the web.

Therefore, in the future, the only time when workers must gather at the office is when they need to collaborate, or when

D E S I G N

|

the home-environment is not ideal for concentration.

Instead of focusing on private spaces, and individual cubicles, the Moments Office focuses on the comfort and happiness of the workers. When a person is happy and comfortable, studies have shown that they tend to be more productive. This design provides a wide variety of spaces, allowing workers to experience each day in a unique way.

D E S I G N

S H O W C A S E

By creating a versatile, flexible, yet comfortable place to work in, workers are free to walk around the office, climb or build with the cushion blocks, lounge about on the stairs and pillow fort or focus intensely in the individual booths.

The office of the future allows people to be individuals, to produce/create/work in their own unique method and mode of working.

Celebrate the future through these unique Moments.

HIER-ARCHIE OFFICE OF THE FUTURE Interior Design | Spring 2017 | David Brothers

A R C H I T E C T U R E

A N D

The office of the future is juxtaposed by reverting back to a hierarchical environment with an emphasis on employee wellness. Through research it is evident that offices today are to the extreme of a completely open plan which limits any individual privacy. The solution for the future is to create a balance between collaborative and individual work zones. It is imperative to avoid the solution of cubicles in order to promote employee wellness and comfort in the work environment.

D E S I G N

|

D E S I G N

Through a series of collaborative zones, it is encouraged that employees get up and relocate from their desk (or homebase).

The collaborative zones include: small and large booths, sit/stand meeting spaces, and meditation hubs. Additionally, the break room is designed to achieve a light and airy space that is available to work in as well. Through further research it has become a trend for there to be no sense of hierarchy in the office. In other words, employees are all treated as equals in the office space.

S H O W C A S E

On one hand, this is successful at promoting teamwork and collaboration. On the other hand, it is necessary to have a sense of hierarchy in order to encourage a professional environment.

Therefore, the solution is to design individual offices in the core of the space that are easily accessible to the collaboraitve zones.

Assignment The assigned house is an 1800’s carriage house that went through several damages over the years of its use. During the site visit, the house most definitely showed its age. It was notably in ruins and needed a full renovation. As per our assignment, we were assigned a client with certain characteristics, styles, and requirements. We are to use the information given and develop a suitable home for our client.

D E S I G N

D E S I G N

Client My assigned client is named Ann Barton. She is 44 years old, single woman, who is a practicing painter. Her style exuberates whimsical motifs, eclectic styles from a range of time periods, bold colors, and patterns. She is simply “over the top”. Also, she is unorgranized. In addition, she has two children who recently moved out. However, she wants to make sure they have a bedroom to stay in whenever they visit.

S H O W C A S E

Concept To incorporate organizational mechanism throughout the plan.

Drawing inspiration from eclectic and extreme styles of the 60s,70s,80s, I created a warm and inviting home. The overall concept centered around the main parts of Ann’s life. Her private life, which includes spaces just for her. Her personal life, which includes family and friends. And her business life, which is art viewers. life, which is her clientele and/or art viewers and buyers.
