Reflecting on the time I have spent at the B.A.C., I have had many opportunities for personal and professional advancement. I now understand the process and methodology to formulating an architectural career. By seeking knowledge in a broad range of architectural veins, I have been able to deepen my competency in architecture as it is fundamentally understood and practiced. Thanks in part to the guidance of the B.A.C., I have gone from having absolutely no practice experience in the field of architecture to being a confident and valued designer in a respected architectural firm. The challenges that I have faced have proven helpful in responding to a dynamic social and economic environment. As I will highlight, there are specific instances of tribulation that produced favorable outcomes in the time I have spent here in Boston. Having taken only 4 semesters of coursework, I am nearly completely ready to enter my Thesis portion of the B.A.C. Masters of Architecture program. Despite moving expeditiously through the Masters of Architecture program academically, the primary restriction has been on the practice end of the program. To reach the appropriate milestone for Thesis has not been easy. I have had several appointments with the practice department in order to petition for clearance into Segment 3, but with each attempt I was told to keep pushing. Because of this, my goals at the firm shifted from appeasing those who ask me for help, to being derisively discriminatory on projects I chose. I called for many meetings with upper management to project my career in a more involved and professional direction. After months of petitioning an opportunity presented itself to place me on a project team. At this time I had been an employee for Bruner/Cott for nearly 2 years, therefore it was a much overdue promotion.

Until this time, I had acquired many project related skills in a piecemeal fashion, but never as a cohesive whole. While attending class at the B.A.C. my skills in the software program Revit dovetailed nicely with practical work applications. In my studio class shown in this review, I display the early Revit work that has augmented my proficiency. In fact, around the time our firm was exploring the possibility of purchasing Energy Modeling Software, my studio class has a representative for the IES software teach us the basics of their particular program. As an alternative to B.A.C. coursework informing practical applications, I have used my technical expertise in Revit to quickly and effectively draw and detail an existing building. This was evident in my Detailing and Structures classes, as Revit was a crucial tool for applying multifaceted information to multiple sets of drawings. It assisted the process of visualizing a performance requirement at every possible scale. Now that I have opened the door to a collaborative project environment, I have expanded my interest for the profession I seek to pursue. In a team, I rely more on my ability to manage many tasks simultaneously and evaluate priorities. I have less prescribed direction, and more self motivated problems to solve. Even though there were five of us on my most recent project team, we all shared responsibilities and took turns evaluating design issues. Each of us had a body of skills to enhance both the project and each other's understanding of the greater principals. It is with this formula, I aim to grasp the most responsive and enjoyable rout to good design. -RM 07.19.2010


The intent of this book is to coherently display a body of work that demonstrates the methodology behind the concurrent B.A.C. process. It will give a balanced portrayal of work from my architectural office and work from B.A.C. homework assignments.

S

I chose to organize the portfolio chronologically from earliest to latest work in order to show growth and process. The projects from office and classroom alternated intermittently as to show a real-time depiction of my experiences. This portfolio exhibits work from a 2 year time frame: from summer of 2008 to summer of 2010. My previous portfolio, a Segment 1 portfolio, was presented on July 28, 2008 and contained all of the work previous to its submission. This Segment 2 portfolio is exclusive of the work presented in Segment 1 and therefore does not contain my B-1 Boathouse project and sketches from my Freehand Drawing class. The work presented in the S-1 portfolio was mostly work prior to my studies at the B.A.C. from the University of Colorado.

Collaboration is also a central theme to this portfolio. Whenever an opportunity arose to exchange ideas and formulate a design with another designer, I seized it. Synergy of architectural practice almost never has an unfavorable outcome. Other designers doubtlessly have a collection of skills built from various backgrounds separate from your own. As for me in particular, I have exhibited several collaborative works in this book that involve both education and practice environments. Notable works are my C-2 Studio project and the work I have done on the Dartmouth College Dining Facility.

a chronological timeline

“Dichotomy� is the title I chose to give this portfolio because it is the lynchpin of architectural design. I have found that the most simplified process to live by, usually has to do with identifying two variations of something and choosing the most appropriate one. When cost and durability are proportionally equivalent, the choice to buy that particular product is a response to the identification of that dichotomy. In my opinion, design is a constant weighing of options and educated choices. Naturally the world is not a black and white dichotomy. In fact, architecture is much more about nuance than absolutes. This said, the underlying drive of architectural design is not nuance but the tension between a construct’s various elements.

Architecture is more than just an encapsulated construct on a localized site. Like a creative work, a building has a place and time for which many lives and landscapes are deaply effected. The projects presented in this section examine a figurative cross section of North American geography, and in doing so, present context sensitive responces.

“an unfinished sketch”: a new ‘micro-campus’ for frank lloyd wright’s taliesin west

CD7101F Instructor: Joshua Safdie Fall 2008 Mondays 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. September 8 - December 15 Boston Architectural College

I was interested in Josh Safdieʼs studio in Fall of 2008 for several reasons: the multifaceted approach to design, the opportunity to travel to and interact with students of Frank Lloyd Wrightʼs School of Architecture at Taliesin West, and lastly because of the premium Josh placed on process and ideological exploration. As the name “unfinished sketch” implies, this studio shifted the typical studio priorities of “completeness” to a more simplified notion of dynamic mailable framework for learning. As the semester progressed we stayed naive to what Joshʼs next step might involve, thus we privileged the current moment in time instead of looking toward the final product or deadline. This studio taught me the significance of taking photographs in a thoughtful and expressive way. We read several significant works relating to the observation of spacial experience and its subsequent documentation. From these essays we learned to see the site context as not only static, rigid form but multidimensional, multi-purpose, and evolving space. We learned that a photograph can be as objective and literal as a proper noun, or conversely as subjective as an abstract painting. To summarize the overall concept of this studio, Josh prescribed for this studio to be a sort of “petri dish” of ideologies and parameters which constantly evolved with its layering of scope and scale. The schedule and progression lended itself not to refinement and detail, but to approach and morphology. In retrospect, the most vivid recollections of this studio were not in the constructing of architectural space, but rather in the collective experience brought about by forced collaboration and constant discussion of our research.

Preconditions: It was obvious that our individual Christian Science Center sketches from our in-class exercise did not have a distinct and literal connection. But with this first assignment, it was up to us to reconcile the disjointedness of two sketches from our classmates. Action: In order to understand the panorama of the site, I took the 8 total sketches into Photoshop. Since they were already scanned into digital media, my inclination was to scale the individual sketches in order to maintain a common proportion between all of them. With the uniform scale established, I simply layered one next to the other in a strand and matched as many lines as possible. The end result is the color-inverted image shown above (the black stripe, so-to-speak) In response to the assignment, I extracted the two assigned images from the previous composition. With this Photoshop enhances meshing, I simply traced on top of the image from my computer screen onto a sheet of paper. By sketching over the computer image, I was able to, once again, reconcile even more differences by increasing line weights, stitching common traits, and eliminating discrepancies altogether. The final result is the large sketch shown to the left.

For the most part, in this second in-class exercise, the actual process had more importance than the analysis. It was yet another forced collaborative activity in which we would not know the outcome. Furthermore this process obscured our sense of authorship even more than the previous exercise at the Christian Science Center. Action: Given the intrinsic qualities mentioned above pertaining to the exercise, I wanted to unravel the complex site programs into simpler, and more defined thresholds. But more than that, I wanted to diagram the element of authorship, the element of time, and lastly, the element of adjacencies (shown respectively from top to bottom).

For the top line, my hope was to clearly define the individual participant in relation to the overall drawing. With these 8 drawings, one might begin to make more conclusions about clustering, movement, and edges. For the middle line, the gradation of grey aims to show the phasing for each drawing. The earliest designs within the drawing are represented by the darkest grey, and conversely, the latest addition is represented by the lightest grey. The bottom row of drawings attempts to group common areas according to color. Red representing Student Spaces, Green representing Faculty Spaces, and lastly, Blue as Public Spaces. It was not certain that the adjacencies were planned, but they did tend to group together after looking at these final results.

The Assignment The overall purpose of this assignment was to analyze the preconditions of Taliesin West by “mapping” as James Corner writes about in “The Agency of Mapping.” In his essay Corner describes an “agency of mapping” whose operational structures are Fields, Extracts, and Plottings: Fields being a setting of rules and the establishment of a system, Extracts being the isolation or de-territorialization of parts and data, and Plottings being the drawing-out and setting-up of relationships between parts. The author compares his term Mapping to Tracing. He asserts that both actions reveal and realize hidden potential, but tracing only “delineates patterns & reveals nothing new”

We were given the 2-D CAD drawing of the Taliesin West Campus shown on the opposite page. The objective of distributing this plan view was to show the “spine” of the Drafting room, Pergola, AND the new Micro-Campus site. Required of us was a series of mappings that clearly defined fields, extracts and plotting and their interrelationships. We were asked to consider three independent “scales” of our choosing that together informed a generative interplay of ideas.

C1 STUDIO assignment two | mapping

My Response

Because this assignment was based upon James Cornerʼs Essay about “Mapping”, it was up to us to interpret the reading with our own version of mapping as well as describe our mappings by using Cornerʼs terminology. With the AutoCAD site plan drawing of Taliesin West given to us, we had accurate visual information combined with our mediocre knowledge of Taliesin from the previous weekʼs readings. In analyzing the CAD drawing, I noticed the uniform slope of the site shown by the topographical lines. And since the visual image of the built forms was lacking depth and discernible information, I chose to keep that information abstract and unknown. The previous weeks reading about Frank Lloyd Wrightʼs work, was helpful in producing a preconceived mental

image of the institution Taliesin West, of the weather conditions in the Arizona Desert, and of the site qualities of Taliesin West. All of these elements found their way into the model I created for the assignment. My model displayed the three scales, which were required: (1) the heavily sloped site, (2) the intense solar pattern of the site, and (3) the panoramic views of the mountain range beyond. The techniques I chose to borrow from Cornerʼs essay were layering, rhizome, and game board. Because there are layers that compete for different end goals, my model aims to mesh them into a

unique montage of dispara ing the model from differen constantly shift your fo dynamic.

Lastly, I employed Corner始s idea of fields, extracts and plottings in this exercise. The field is the site of Taliesin West in which we soon after visited. The Extract is the limited information in which we have been given to this moment. Lastly, the Plotting is what has been done with the limited information to make an argument about physical, and ephemeral qualities of Taliesin west. The Plotting is the model which you see to the right.

assignment three | drifting In this third assignment, we were asked to literally read further into the concept of “Drift” through Simon Sadlerʼs text, The Situationist City. We were introduced to this topic in the previous weeks text from James Corner. In short, the concept of drift was a based on a political movement spawned by Karl Marx in which the urban context was turned into a fabric for which situations grew. And for well known situationists like Guy Debord and Asger Jorn the product of these drifts through the city were abstract maps and compositions that gave a feel or mood for the drift. Drifting was a way to add a dramatized process to the oversimplified readings of cities. In effect, for our assignment, we were asked to do several drifts on our own, dealing with the Christian Science Center once again as the field of study. The first drift that I aimed to portray graphically was the collaborative drift in which Sean and I drew a portion of a meaningful area within the site, then once we completed that portion, we exchanged drawings and added to one anotherʼs drawings from a completely desperate part of the site. The product you see displayed above is a hybrid drawing of the two locations.

C1 STUD As for my individual drifts. I did not have access to any arial maps of the site, nor did I want to reference any. My drift, like Debordʼs drifts, was meant to be experiential and represent the sentiments of the drift rather than the logistics of the space. The grey-scale image on the right shows three of the iconic built forms on the site in a collage. My thought, was by meshing of these buildings, a mimicry of form would emerge as a architectural language by which a genetic make-up could propagate new forms. The last drift was a thermal diagram of circulation throughout the site. Red was determined to be the highest presence of traffic, while the color dissipated to yellow with the lighter flows of traffic. I took about 30 minutes to follow pedestrians and observe the most used paths of commute. Although many people used the site as a place to rest, many people used it as a means to travel from one end to the other or throughout. Once again, in the spirit of the situationist movement, I did not use any formal arial maps for this exercise, but produced a generic diagram in order to simplify the site but privilege the pedestrian movement.

Series of 10 - Material E

C1 STUDI

In keeping with the trend of previous assignments, once again, our response to assignment four was influenced by the supplementary reading of that week. The two texts given to us were: (1) Siegfried Kracouerʼs Theory of Film and (2) Wim Wenderʼs The Act of Seeing. We were asked to take both readings and consider photography as not just a means of representation, but as narrative, as an identifier, as a “field,” as subjective work, and so forth.

The 48 photographs seen on the left show the objective 48 shots taken for this secondary exercise in mapping/drifting. While taking these pictures, we had to keep in mind the categorical nature of each shot. As you can see on the opposite page, some photos show the Christian Science Center as a series of 10 different material palates. As for the pairing photos seen on the right, the pairs either compliment or oppose each other.

The final shot highlighted in to the right was a photo that was meant to “tell the story of the site,” so to speak. I wanted to have a photograph that suggested many things about my observation of the site. In this photo, I wanted to capture the central church as the focal point of the site and capture the circulation along the colonnade as a main thoroughfare. With luck, there was a man standing front and center taking a mimicking shot of the church to reaffirm my notion of its focal point.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE TRIP :

EXERPT FROM MY TALIE

With our prior incomplete knowledge of the site of Taliesin West, we embarked on a 5-day trip to visit, document, analyze and present. While in Arizona, we met with students, faculty, and employees of Taliesin. In collaborating with the these resourceful people, we reached our own understanding of the site and furthered our personal studies. In October of 2008, we came equipped with a multitude of ideas and inspirations to guide our investigation. A thorough proposal was required of each of us before leaving Boston.

C1 STUDIO

assignment five | preparation THE PROPOSAL :

In keeping with the previous work we had done with mapping, drifting, and seeing, I wanted to quantifiably document the aspect of time as it relates to process. Although the concept of drift is, by nature, a subjective exploration of the human psyche, I believe it is fundamental to the success of built form. I assert that time is less of a focal point than the momentary experience suspended within that given moment. With this platform of inquiry I aimed to discover how the proverbial “snapshot in time” can be reproduced and woven into a stream of methodical moments. Equipped with a stopwatch and a camera, I proposed to freely navigate the campus of Taliesin West. As the stopwatch reaches 3 minutes, I wanted capture an image of that which I am currently focusing on (similar

to the “seeing assignment” but without thematic motives). After 1 hour (20 photos), I sat and wrote a brief blurb about each one of the photos. In particular, I wrote about the connection between each and emotional response to that moment. In opposing that methodology, I proposed to drift with no constraint on time, but rather time the differences in the photographs. This way, there was a comparison from time to process. I hypothesized that the meaningfulness of the second procession outweighs the haphazard moments captured every 3 minutes. For the third unscheduled time frame, instead of photographing on intervals of time, I chose to take 3 of my most provocative moments from the previous

exercise and sketch/map the space using techniques from Cornerʼs Essay. These mappings were the first drafts of my final mappings which took place back in Boston. The purpose of the exercise was to collect observational information on several scales and represent them in a 2-dimensional composition. Even though they were rough compositions, they were also a montage of various graphics and techniques. For this final personal exercise, it was more important to seek out diverse locations and get a good cross section of Taliesin West as a site. This methodology contrasts with the fist two exercises, in that time was less likely be a point of study but rather experience weighed heavily on the final outcome.

process narrative

Working in our first set of temporary groups, we collaborated to complete a “final” master plan – taking into consideration the issues that were raised during the previous critique. Below are several agenda items discussed previously to consider for this assignment. • Connection to existing site circulation • Relationship to desert / hills – visual, environmental • The “Unfinished-ness” factor – how does our plan accommodate future expansion? • Adjacencies – related or adjoined programmatic elements • Proximity / connection to historic core • Scattered vs. clustered elements (density) • Critical distances – for walking, for viewing, for hearing • Climatic response(s) • Building and/or material logic(s) – tectonics

MAIN STUDIO

This master plan was begun by mimicking the circulation pattern of the main campus. The prow was mirrored across the eastern edge of the historic core, connecting the paths at the existing walkway leading to the Sun Cottage. Thus the 45/90 grid of the historic core was transplanted and used for the new buildings of the microcampus. The war room and exhibition space were placed along an extension of that existing path as a way of drawing the user into the microcampus from the original. The war room was kept above grade to create a sense of enclosure to the site, and was designed as a separate space from the studio to create a more formal or ceremonial presentation space. A water wall was also placed on the southwest side of the war room to maintain a connection with the fountains of the historic core. The exhibition space was placed below grade to maintain views across the microcampus. A green roof was installed on the exhibition space so that all parts of the courtyard would remain usable. Renovation of existing buildings (the Atrium Studio and the East Wing) was preferred over demolition as the more ecofriendly alternative. The Atrium Studio was converted into the model shop and printing room, and the East Wing was converted to a kitchen/lounge area for the students and faculty. The main studio space was placed adjacent to the lounge area. A corridor was placed between the two buildings, leading into the microcampus courtyard. A compression of space was created at that corridor because of the conflicting grids of the East Wing and the new studio, thus encouraging circulation through that space.

The main studio space was designed with the student work areas on the first floor and the visiting artist studios and faculty offices on the second floor. Views were maintained between the two floors as a means of referencing the verticality of the mountains over the horizontal plane of the desert, and so the second story really acts as more of a mezzanine. The northern and southern walls were left fairly opaque, although some openings were included for cross ventilation purposes. The second floor cantilevered over the first floor on the north and east sides in order to provide shading for the interior spaces. The eastern walls of the studio were completely glazed to allow the morning light to enter the space uninhibited, as well as to allow uninhibited horizontal views of the desert as well. More restricted or framed views were created between individual buildbuildings as a means of encouraging movement through the campus. A reflecting pool was placed at the northernmost edge of the site to create a threshold that would define the limits of the microcampus. Its location was determined by mirroring the southwestern edge of the prow across the line of the main circulation path from the original campus to the new one, so as to keep a similar scale between the two campuses. Lawns were placed appropriately in order to determine the circulation paths through the microcampus. The existing service road and parking were maintained in their existing locations so that cars would not be seen when on the courtyard. Similar materials were used as seen on the original campus, but with some modern materials as well (i.e. the green roof on the exhibition space) in order to establish the microcampus as a new part of the historic campus. The reflecting pool trails off into the eastern edge of the microcampus, in order to keep WrightĘźs idea of “the unfinished sketchâ€? alive.

Using our own collaborative master plans from the previous week, we were asked to prepare a new master plan on and individual basis. Taking the concept and layout from our group design, we began to articulate more ideas about individual buildings and their relationship to the site. Sectional Model (left): After our formalized design was completed, we were required to construct a single 1/4” scale sectional model that cuts through a minimum of two distinct buildings and the spaces between them, including adjacent pathways and landscape elements. This investigation forced upon us questions of scale, and tectonics.

C1 STUDIO design guidelines

Before executing our final design, we were first asked to author 5 specific ideas that were fundamental to solving the problem(s) posed by the studio. These specific ideas were code to which our design might be able to objectively critiqued as we moved forward. The five general principals that I came up with were as follows:

3. Use material qualities in your design to assist in passive cooling techniques. By simply placing glazed facades away from the hot Arizona sun will increase the level of comfort within the space. Conversely, the heavy masonry walls have a low heat index as to guard the cool interior from the hot exterior. Such walls should be placed primarily in the southern facades.

1. The orientation of the design must either follow primary axes of Frank Lloyd Wright始s historic core and/or the orientation of the existing sun cottage. Given these set of boundaries, the continuity of the old and new design will be more pronounced.

4. Since the ecosystems of the desert are fragile and destructible, it is favorable to tread as lightly as possible with footprint of the proposed design. The new Micro Campus should take no more space than is needed to fulfill its programed spaces.

2. The stairways and terraces in the original campus represent thresholds from one area to the next. Use the sloped site to accentuate these boundaries in not only elevation but in plan as well.

5. Given the presence of strategically placed water features in Taliesin West, the design shall incorporate water as a node for which any person might be inclined to see.

the spirit of the design I had three main principals to my final design to the micro-campus of Taliesin West. Like Wright始s design of Taliesin, I wanted my proposal to be organized so that any observer or user can circulate in a non-linear procession, i.e. experientially. Secondly, I wanted my design to respond to existing conditions: the warm climate, the sloped site, and the individual user groups. Lastly, I intended for my design to reflect and associate with Frank Lloyd Wright始s original designs and compliment the existing building conditions. To elaborate on these principals, the experiential qualities were derived from Wright始s employment of compression and expansion, and his mastery of navigational movement through corridors, trellises, loggias, and terraces. By figuratively compressing the user under a low overhead ceiling, Wright observed the release one feels upon exiting the space is verifiably more momentous and acute. The views beyond instantly transition from background to foreground as you move from small shaded spaces to the expansive desert panorama.

This was the intent in my design of the bridged mass housing the Guest Studios and Faculty Spaces in the center of my micro-campus. By looking at the section directly above, you can see the space underneath the overpass and the possible views it would produce to the east (to the right). In responding to the site, I took the existing language of old and new to, what I thought might be its natural fulfillment. This was a propagation of our collaborative project始s notion of the inverse-prow since the symmetry delineated a strong relationship between the old campus and the new micro-campus. This new micro-campus would contrast the historic prow in that it would dig into the earth as opposed to emerge from the earth. My proposed campus shall excavate and retain the desert soil in order to create the voided wedge you see in the lower left part of the opposite page. Since the slope is fairly server on this site, adding terraces and sloped walkways in the north/south direction helped to harmonize with the site instead of divorce from it.

planimetric organization Learning from James Corner始s essay mentioned previously, a site is much more than just a tracing that reveals hidden potential, but a re-envisioning of a site with a hierarchy of layers and meanings. In depicting the four categories on the opposite page, I wanted to display the varying spheres through which one might be able to envision the site. Just like Roger Clark and Michael Pause show in their book Precedents in Architecture, these four categories show the formal archetypal patterns and formative ideas of my design. The circulation diagram shows how a future student or faculty member might navigate the space. Learning from the drifting exercise at the beginning of the semester I displayed where a typical destination node might be and how to circulate to that area most efficiently. The axes diagram unveils the geometry discussed on the previous page. The inverse V-shape acknowledges the historic prow by its rotational symmetry. The secondary axis down the center of the site planimetrically bisects the site but visually invites framed view through the underpass space created by the second floor mass. The horizontal axis is based on the existing sun cottage and student space. Lastly, the final axis hinges on the center node created by the last two axes and Level One forms a perpendicular threshold for the long procession to the site apex. Water features found in Wright始s Taliesin West not only visually connected the space from space to space, but did so also with their audibility. In a desert setting, it is the elements of water that are most attractive and tranquil, therefore they mark a moment of arrival. The small water feature you see at the western (left) part of the site is a waterfall pit demarcating the diverging paths at that nexus. This water feature is a soothing arrival sequence where otherwise a drawn out pathway might exist. The large water basin on the eastern part of the site provides a chasm in the space bisecting it from the more natural tree-grove area. The size of this water body compliments the size of the built environment surrounding it. The cool air from the water might also passively cool the adjacent building.

Water

The last topical diagram shows the localized presence of open space and natural features surrounding the site. Because a prescribed requirement of our studio was to tread lightly on the delicate desert surface, this diagram shows that much of the vegetation was either left undisturbed or integrated into the site始s landscape.

the beginnings of architectural project work

130 Prospect Street

In the Fall of 2008, I was promoted from the General Office Person to the Assistant to the CAD Manager and IT Manager. At this time, I had only a few opportunities to use Computer Aided Design tools in the office setting. I was a novice at AutoCAD from my work in the classroom, but naive to CAD standards and office protocol. At the onset, I assisted the CAD manager, Lyle Lemon in organizing and updating our office AutoCAD library to make it more user friendly and comprehensive. Hereafter, I was introduced to the world of Building Information Modeling. Lyle worked closely with me on small projects using the program, Revit Architecture. I built components called “families� for billable projects, and familiarized myself with the Revit user interface. As my knowledge and proficiency aggrandized, I began working on larger scale projects. The projects shown in this section display my introduction to project work at Bruner/Cott & Associates. The first project is an As-built project of our office building. The second project is a renovation of our office building for incoming tenants. The last page represents our office initiative to stainability and how I was involved.

as-built project | building information modeling

130 PROSPECT S The project shown on this page is the office building where Bruner/Cott & Associates is located. Because many of the drawings for this building were outdated, missing information or simply hard to find, the impetus for a Revit model was in place. Revit was still fairly new to the office and therefor it was enticing to use this exercise as a pioneering project. The curator of the project was Laurie Soave, however Lyle Lemon and I were responsible for the successful implementation. The drawings I utilized were from the anachronistic periods of hand drafting, and some from Microstation (a 2-D drafting program). The way Lyle and I created this Revit Model was to take the Microstation drawings, loading them into Revit as underlays and verifying the dimensions. I learned from this project many new and exciting tools for creating a virtual model and what incredible capabilities the Revit program has. I discovered that sections could be easily cut and displayed once a model was created. I found that walls could be drawn with a desired thickness and composition so that the design had added accuracy. I learned that materials of surfaces were important for rendering and scheduling purposes. Lastly, I learned that drawing in three dimensions meant walls were not simply planimetric but were elements with vertical properties.

In the Fall of 2009, a colleague, Lyle Lemon and I were involved in the renovation for the new tenant space within our office building. I was chosen to be a part of this project because I was the original creator of the Revit model, and because Lyle being my supervisor at the time took over as the project manager. From the Revit model we were able to create Construction Drawings depicting the changes we needed to accommodate the new tenants and provide for their needs. Lyle and I were also assisting in the deconstruction, relocation, and storage of BCA material. After construction we reassembled the modular furniture in the new space as well as reorganized the remainder of our office. This project provided many opportunities for my learning and cultivation of skills. I had not yet created Construction Documents until this time. And due to the time constraints of the tenants moving in within the month, this project exercised Lyle and my sense of urgency. I realized too that the implications of each drawing was critical for unequivocally communicating accurate information to the subcontractor. Up until this point, almost all of my architectural work communicated a group of concepts or diagrams, but never a fully instructional, pragmatic, live document.

Sun Shades As an initiative of Sustainabilty Committee and our associate Laurie Soave, the firm entertained the option of reducing the solar heat gain on the southern facade by introducing sun shades. Because of this, Laurie asked me to produce renderings of our building from the Revit model with Sun Shades attached. With my extensive experience of building parametric Revit families, I was able to build the sun shade family seen above and to the right. The parameters allowed the shades to extend outward by increasing the amount of louvers, and widen to accommodate the window size. The three iterations seen above are images from the completed study. From my renderings, we can see that the size and shape of these shades were fairly successful in their application. The most intense summer sun is blocked during mid-day while the winter sun will intentionally penetrate the space.

Heat gain measurements: HVAC diagram: The drawing above represents the vent locations for our office building. In drawing this diagram for use in our office, I began to understand how the vents interact with the windows in a codependent way.

To continue the study of solar gain in our office space, Laurie asked me to take a surface heat measuring device and periodically measure window temperatures. The study began first in March of 2009, then finished in May. I measured the second floor windows around the office and noticed that the surface of the glass along the South wall could reach over 110 degrees at mid-day while other windows remained much cooler. The adjacent brick also fluxuated very little in temperature while the window could change sometimes 50 degrees in only 4 hours. Additional to this study, Laurie asked me to take a light measuring device to measure the amount of lumens near each window. Glare is another reason for discomfort and with this study we could determine that some offices had less than 5 lumens from natural light, where others had over 200.

Sustainabilty Project Showcase: Blackstone is a LEED-Platnum project completed by Bruner/Cott in 2006. This wall showcases the many awards our firm had received and highlights the many sustainablity measures. I was responsible for painting this wall and designing its layout.

Integrated Project Delivery Studio: Downtown Sailing Pavilion

Level of Studio: C2 - Masterʼs Core Two - Advanced Architectural Studio Class Code: CD102A / CD7102G Studio Instructor: Andreas Savvides Spring 2009 Location of Site: James Hook Fish Company in Bostonʼs 4-Point Channel Summary and analysis of the experience and skills learned: The purpose of this project was to investigate the notion of place-making via the translation and reinterpretation of the B-1 Studio boathouse project into a sailing pavilion. Our site was the former site of the James Hook & Co, a lobster and shellfish wholesaler, which was burnt down the year previous to our studio. The site is located between Atlantic Avenue and the Boston Waterfront and between Seaport Boulevard and Northern Avenue. Because this studio was an advanced architectural studio, we were challenged to think about our design from every possible perspective and with every degree of intensity. As the design progressed, we were to ask ourselves what was gained and weigh the benefits and pitfalls to each iteration. In order to maintain a focused methodology, Andreas asked us to keep constant both our “Concept Statement” and our “Programatic Rationale.” In turn, everything else was to be considered fluid. As the name indicates, the major focus of our studio was on interdisciplinary design. We as architectural designers were to orchestrate our projects as if they had no departure from reality. In other words, like in the professional setting, this studio project had similar parameters, constraints and social pressures. Experts and professionals from all disciplines made scheduled appearances every week for the first half of the studio. Each week we presented the most up-to-date design to these experts, and in turn received a unique and pragmatic response to our respective designs. As our designs changed, the amount of information carried within the design increased. Because this studio was fast-paced, we used our design from our B-1 studios as a departure point. To start, we transplanted this B-1 boathouse onto this site from its original context along Bostonʼs Back Bay Esplanade. Knowing that this relationship to the site had a fractured and arbitrary feel, we were asked to adjust our designs to appropriately fit the site and program. But before this could happen, we had to understand what the original design intent was, and envision what it could be through a series of evolving iterations.

Here I briefly introduce the topics explored, but in the pages that follow the content is topical, i.e. exclusive to the principal explored. This studio was organized in a layered and generative fashion, therefore it is important to see it as a synthesis of parts instead of a unified whole.

Energy Modeling Software - IES

Considerations

Integrated Environmental Systems (IES) is one of many Energy Modeling softwares that are available on the market today. In our studio, we were fortunate to have Michelle Farrell, an employee and spokesperson for the software assist us in its implementation into our studio. These five frames shown in the box show a comparison between two insulation options in my particular design. This program takes the guessing out of engineering energy efficiency. As you can see the results are conclusive, identifiable and comparable.

downtown sailing pavilioin | climate The goal of the whole building design philosophy is to produce a building that is most effectively responsive to the site and its users. In order for the design to be responsive, the designers must know the parameters and codes for which the proposed building must comply. I submit, as do many architectural designers, that in order for a design to be acceptable in the aesthetic realm, it must first function in the practical realm. Shown in the page adjacent to this are a group

of graphs, diagrams and tables. Conclusive in each is that Boston is a 4-season climate with moderately low and high temperatures. The cold winds come in from the northeast while others come from the west. The solar exposure is considerable in summer months and minimal in the winter. Lastly, the design conditions table and diagrams are from a free software called Climate Consultant which give hints to designing a building appropriate to each respective climate.

After learning the lessons of the pre-existing context, the next step was to translate them into a workable set of rules that had meaning to our design. In studying the site, there were several concise factors that commanded a physical response. These factors were; the pavilionʼs relationship of land to the waterfront, the pavilionʼs communication with neighboring buildings, the materials of the pavilionʼs surroundings, the predominant direction of wind and sun, the pavilionʼs year round climate changes, the proximity of the pavilion to the heavily used Kennedy Rose Greenway, and the pavilionʼs inescapable physical constraints of a forced pedestrian path. From these elements the beginnings of our design emerged from the perfunctory B-1 Boathouse. Landscape architect speaker Ellen Merritt benefited our design by giving strategies for integrating site work into our simple volumetric construct. Such tools as walkways, plantings, curbs, bollards. and berms were later considered.

C2 STUDIO downtown sailing pavilion | concept

As stated in the introductory page, we were asked to keep a single generative idea throughout the semester. Since I have already alluded to my belief that site is what dictates the design and not visa versa, my designs always present a resonance between site properties and built form. The imagery shown on this spread are the secondary responses to such context sympathetic design. Shown here are a few examples of my stylistic tendencies. The diagram in the upper left shows my favorability toward skewed cartesian grid orientations along focal points and the unique spaces they create. The sketch above, pertaining to my B1 Boathouse design, displays my priority of visual connections. In my experience, within a space there are momentary oppor-

tunities for short range or long range views. In a dense and unique downtown environment, there were many instances of long range views including the world trade center towers and directly across the four point channel. The diagram to the right hints at my privileging of diverting pathways over intersections. On the right hand spread there are two more concepts: (1) passive solar heating techniques / daylighting strategies, and (2) exterior design precedents. In regards to the precedents, I had many inspirations for my fractured and crystalline typology. The newest designer Andreas Savvides introduced me to was a Boston based architect, Charles Rose.

downtown sailing pavilion | process This spread shows the progression from our initial B1 boathouse response to a more refined and holistic approach. From the beginning, abstract conceptualization and tectonic evolution occurred concurrently in order to validate the initial concept, our siting exercise, and our climactic responses. Program, defined as an optimal mix of uses and their strategic adjacencies, formulated my designs from these virtual building blocks. After learning from our guest critics we were able to understand scope for our interdisciplinary design project. These first sketches, models, and computer renderings act as a retrospective evolution relating previous designs more & more to the context.

The sketch on top showing the bold size of the lecture space from the audience perspective. The sketch on the bottom making the focal point of the design the circular information desk and the polygonal second story opening, while secondary elements like the stairs, people and distant windows permeate the image.

On the opposite page the collage shows the material considerations I explored. Certain programatic elements were differentiated either a red brick veneered envelope or a heavy CMU wall for its high thermal mass index. The image in the lower left part of the collage tips its hat to the precedent studies from two pages previous. The roof planes visually peal away from the stratified wall levels to uncover the clearstory glass below. Finally, the materials are vaguely vernacular with brick being the most classical typology to Boston architecture.

downtown sailing pavilion | programmatic use Here is the first glimpse of the fully integrated design in a comprehensive manner. This is the final design of 5 iterations produced, but I am sure many more iterations could further the design. As I typically do for all studios and designs, the given program was followed quite strictly and thoughtfully. Therefore the spaces shown are the product of many re-adjustments to fit the my concepts into the requested qualifications. Being able to understand the implications of a plan adjustment is one of the major benefits of drawing a final model in a CAD program instead of by hand. The color coding of the plans helps to visual differentiate the various uses and adjacencies. With a program of only 14,000 square feet, this sailing pavilion had to economize the site to its utmost ability. To this affect, I created a centralized hingepoint as that branched out into the three distinct wings. The structural and mechanical systems are shown on the next spread.

C2 downtown sailin pavilion | structure and mechanical systems

A building始s programmatic layout and orientation affect its operational performance, both quantitatively and qualitatively, in terms of the very pragmatic management and maintenance costs, as well as the rich and positive psychological condition of inhabiting and operating in a space. The passive means of heating and cooling the various program areas and the need for natural light and ventilation have a tremendous effect on the experiential perception of a building.

These passive conditions were integrated into my design, and balanced with active climate control systems. These systems along with a delicately considered structural proposal were carefully studied, and presented to our M/E/P design guest critic, Warren Cochrane and our structural lecturer, Christopher Downey. From this point on, our mechanical systems were designed with energy efficiency and cost in mind. Lastly, the structural grid is a best guess on how to compromise a space with interacting grid patterns, double height spaces and column-free boat storage spaces. The rule of thumb that I went by was that interior partitions usually centered themselves on structural beams whenever possible.

On the opposite page, the plans are shown as keys for the 6 revealing sections. The sections show the tilted roofs and the proportions of the interior spaces. Because this studio preceded my formal introduction to wall detailing, my knowledge base was minimal. The wall section you see above was the best depiction I could find of a brick veneer wall section. The 3-dimensional axonometric building section shown above is produced in Revit and improved in Photoshop. The intent of this drawing it so display the foundation walls in the context of the entire west wing of the building.

downtown sailing pavilion | elevations & photomontage

In these final rendering I used Revit to render telling perspectives of the exterior design while later photo-editing the images to include clouds and entourage (people, and boats). Because these were computer renderings the craftsmanship of drawings needed to exceed that which might have been originally done by hand. I spent much time tweaking the lighting and material colors to get the desired look and feel of my proposed design. Looking back at these images, I feel the tilted roof planes were both elegant and functional. Similarly the variations of brick and concrete really show brilliantly as a differentiator of the volumetric elements. In concluding, this project was the most holistic design I have attempted in my 7 years as an architecture student. Although some of my knowledge was lacking in various disciplines, the opportunity was there for me to expand my learning. The project took place just before entering the project team environment in the workplace. The integration of and exposure to these various trades helped me grasp the complexity of a singular building.

Waltham Watch Factory Exhibit Casework

Bruner/Cott & Associates Project Team Qty: 3 Spring 2009 Location: Waltham, Massachusetts

The Waltham Watch Factory is a historic factory along the Charles River in Waltham, Massachusetts. These 19th century mill-buildings are in the process of being converted into condominiums, lofts and offices. To commemorate the historic moments in this watch factory始s past, the historical committee put together a collection of photographs, documents, and paraphernalia for an exhibit. The location of the exhibit was decided to be part of the main entry lobby as patrons make their way into the living spaces. Because Bruner/Cott was the project architect, Henry Moss AIA asked myself and Lyle Lemon to be a part of the casework design and representation. Lyle was a particularly insightful resource because of his decades of experience in both carpentry and AutoCAD.

From these drawings, the carpenters South Shore Millwork drew their own cut-sheets for verification and construction. The schedule to the right makes an easy reference for the millworkers to determine which case is which and quickly find information about that case. Due to value engineering, the quantity of cases diminished as the price quote came in from South Shore Millwork. In the end, the display area of cases was sufficient for the exhibit material and the cases filled the lobby to an appropriate density.

Final installation:

The document shown above is a study showing the casework fabric as it might be laid out before it was cut. The rationale for economically subdividing the fabric role was to minimize the fabric waste and streamline the amount of cuts needing to be made. The fabric itself was one of the larger expenses when comparing it to the material costs. Once I was able to determine each surface area and lay it out along a 54� roll, the final fabric needs ended up being only 240 square feet.

The reward of doing a project of this scale is the rapid build time form drawing submittal to final installation. Within only a few monthĘźs time, the drawings became a reality and Henry and I witnessed and assisted in the installation in May of 2009.

Class Code: HT7110 Instructor (Lecturer): Mark Brus Instructor (Discussion): Susan Deily-Swearingen Spring 2009 Boston Architectural College

Background: American Contemporary Architecture is a two part, lecture and seminar, class which investigates the culture and the values of contemporary Western architecture. The class is split in half, with Mark Brus lecturing about various class topics from practical vernacular architecture to Le Corbusierʼs machine for living for the first half of the evening, and Susan Deily-Swearingen framing a discussion around our readings for the second half. As for assignments, we were asked to write three papers about the same architectural construct of our choosing. Each paper was to follow a specific set of guidelines that built on the complexity of the previous paper. The first paper was to be about observation. It was supposed to be a descriptive and speculative analysis where we were to examine the built work from an outside perspective. Because this was the first of three papers, it was important to establish the simple facts about the project: its name, its designerʼs name, its function, its client, its location, the year it was designed, and the years it was built and completed. Then we were asked to describe and analyze the workʼs organization of tangible formal characteristics, such as its masses, volumes, materials, spaces, and structure. Thereafter we were asked to describe the interrelationships between these formal characteristics. Because the paper was required to be written from an observers perspective, I chose to write mine from my own self-perspective as a student of architecture. And since I was eager to research an architect and project I had much reverence for, I chose the J. Paul Getty Center by Richard Meier. The title of the first paper was The Getty Center: Integrating an elaborate design into Californiaʼs architectural cannon. In this paper I spoke about such formal characteristics as the processional approach sequence from its 7-story underground parking structure, up its sinuous sloped tram track, through its campus of stone clad pavilions and courtyards, all the way to its scenic Los Angeles overlook from the Cactus Garden Promontory. I also talked about the scale and magnitude of this 750 acre plot atop the Santa Monica Mountains, the natural and pristine

site, its balance of buildings and landscaped gardens, the luminous presence of the Southern California sun, and lastly Meierʼs clean post-modern style of primary geometric volumes like the cube and the cylinder punctuated by the whimsical interplay of curvilinear planes and volumes. In addition to the concrete forms, I introduced many historical and social contexts. I gave a brief history on how the project was funded, organized and conceived. It wasnʼt until the second paper that I weighed all of these social factors on a more global scale. I began to notice factors that would bring about a many layers of circumstantial opportunity. Because no project is without its pitfalls, Meier too had his fair share of extenuating circumstances and difficulties. He was under the watchful eye of many stakeholders and committee members to produce a design that suited many conflicting needs. �Since the first paper was meant to be a more global approach to investigating the our building, the second asked us to not only dig deeper but also be more subjective. The Getty center is today a recognized Los Angeles landmark, but it too had outside influences and contextual differences at the time of its design in the late 1980ʼs. This second paper, entitled Below the Surface of the Getty Center: A Research Paper, discusses the financial backing and budgeting of this $1.3 billion project and how the scope swelled to this unprecedented scale. I wrote more about the J. Paul Getty Trust and their vision for the project. And lastly I wrote about Meierʼs personal attribute as a unifier and collaborator that led to the successful completion of the center. The last paper you see on the page spread that follows directly compares the Getty Center to the famous Italian landmark, Hadiranʼs Villa. It shows their similarities in scale, landscape, materiality and monumentality. This last paper was meant to grasp the deeper significance of the work by offering a greater comprehensive vantage point of the projectʼs historical perspective. I see the order of magnitude with which Hadrian commissioned his masterpiece and I cannot help but question if the Gettyʼs modern day institution can even be compared.

final paper | the historical significance of the getty center While the Getty Centerʼs short but substantial history is fascinating to consider on its own terms, the still greater substance of discourse can be pinned to a more global and historical context. In spite of the “Getty-centric” point of view envisioned in the previous two essays, the Getty does hold a place in history, but to what degree can be easily disputed. The Getty we know today is both literally and denotatively contemporary; it is comparatively recent, and it is also of the Post-Modern “contemporary” style. Like many great works of architecture, the Getty Center has to withstand not only the scrutiny of modern criticism, but endure the life-long tribulation of age, and more importantly, adapt to satisfy itʼs ongoing cultural significance. For all anyone can predict, Richard Meierʼs Getty Center has the makings of a historical monument, but to assume this is to account for no aptitude for change. Different from the last essays, this thesis touches on the aspects unique to the Getty which are not orchestrated merely by the project architect, but the aspects of the Getty which fall under the gravity of external cultural & historic forces. I will argue that the Getty Center is not merely about the actions taken by Richard Meier and his associates, but instead about the outside influences beyond his control. The trans-historical context of the Getty has a trajectory based on; the synergy of its constituents and stakeholders, the stylistic cultural trends of its day and age, and its placement in human history. As a we often do, it is easy to associate artists in their quintessential public persona. With Richard Meier the totality of his being is not nearly as documented as the buildings in which he designs. With Meier, his architectural language is typified by expansive white facades, and his expressive irregular forms juxtaposed by an insistent structural grid. But before Meier, a much more notable architect had pioneered this similar idiom. Moreover, this pioneer of the post-modern movement is the architect most idolized by Meier himself. This architect is the French architect, Charles-Edouard Jeanneret-Gris, better known as Le Corbusier. This is brought up, not to dispute Meierʼs originality, but rather to portray Meier as a less enigmatic, more prescribed designer. In fact, Meierʼs secondary passion was and is removed from the pragmatic cultivation of buildings. His passion for artistic collage can possibly be the balance to his stark austere architectural form. The abstract art in his expansive art portfolio is haphazard, whimsical, vibrant in color, and, in essence, oppositional to his architecture.

Still more, Meier is not merely known for his work on the Getty, nor even his commercial designs. Meierʼs early works were not large-scale cultural institutions, but rather houses. His most recognized residential houses likely overshadow his more grandiose subsequent work. Works like the Smith House and the Douglas house are the more simplified and a more lucid manifestation of Meierʼs architectural framework. Like Le Corbusierʼs Villa Savoy, Meierʼs early houses brought together his design principals on a manageable scale, and instilled a methodology for more sizable works that follow later in his career.

All of these examples of Richard Meierʼs alternative interests, point to one truth; that despite an architectʼs most valiant efforts to avoid typification and one-dimensionality so as to accommodate their naturally divided interests, the unwitting public perception breads comfortable norms. In other words, to have a specialized idiom, brings with it an expectation of predictability and banality. As critics like Martin Filler might attest, Meierʼs work might fall under the category of formulaic and predictable. Filler talks about the Getty in terms of its layout, style, and clientele; “Thought the layout is exceptionally busy--unsurprising with a program so varied and a budget so lush--the buildingʼs individual details are carried out with Meierʼs customary finesse. He is nothing if not skillful and dependable, as well as predictable, qualities that are understandably reassuring to institutional clients.” Perhaps there is some truth to Fillerʼs argument. With the american tradition of client involvement, the Gettyʼs fine tuned and compromised master plan was subject to many external forces. Because of the Gettyʼs oligarchical Design Advisory Committee, the vociferous Bentwood Homeownerʼs Association, the stringent code and permit prerequisites, the accessibility to the obscure site, and the many administrative difficulties, there was not much wiggle-room for any such a right-brained expressionist, as many architects are. But as stated previously, predictability of design is something that Meier has honed into a set of parameters for which his designs are not limited, but conversely, invigorated. In his lifetime Meier has produced a unique permutation within each character of his architectural repertoire. The Getty is simply a showcase of many self-standing program functions designed in concert with one another by the only party completely capable of doing so; the architect. In order to look beyond this place and time of the Getty Center as we know it today, it is helpful to look to the past to see what the Getty of the historic past once was. Hadrianʼs Villa is an archaeologic site originally built for and by the emperor of Rome at the peak of the Roman empire, circa 100 AD, and, for the sake of argument, is the Getty Center of yesterday. Only coincidentally the Getty uses the same travertine stone quarry in Bagni di Tivoli, Italy for its world renowned stone tile cladding as the Villa used to erect its walls, pediments, flooring and the like. There are many similarities and many differences between the two urban metropolises, but the connection that forces the most critical analogy is Richard Meierʼs reverence for the Villaʼs organizational pattern as found in the Getty itself. Thought scattered, the arrangement of the two master plans follows a centrifugal hinge point to which programatic functions emanate outward in a two separate cartesian grid patterns. The pivot point is the rotunda placed in the relative center of each. For the Getty Center this cylindrical space is the Museum Lobby & Entrance Hall, and for Hadrianʼs Villa it is the Cryptoporticus which joins the Philosopherʼs Chamber and the Library Courtyards.

Central to Gettyʼs theme, the double axes works to ameliorate the challenges of the undulating site and soften the rectilinear constraints. When designing the Getty, Meier decided that the natural character of the site was within its topography. The two predominant ridges found on the mountainous site met at approximately a 22.5 degree angle. This discovery informed how the dominant axes would be placed on the site, and in turn how the master plan would take shape. Geometrically the two architectural works use a similar vocabulary. The use of sacred primary shapes, such as circles and rectangles resonate in both designs. In plan view, these simple shapes are comparative in both master plans. The circular Research Institute at the Getty Center is the most literal imitation of the rotundas within Hadrianʼs Villa. Of course, the Classic Roman style found in Hadrianʼs Villa uses traditional Greek columns, colonnades, barrel vaults, domes, pediments, elaborate detailing, and decorative motifs. In contrast to this, Meier uses his Corbusian minimalism found in late modernist style and is indicative of the Bauhaus movement pioneered in the turn of the century. The Italian piazza is found in the Gettyʼs layout, but in more abstract terms. In the museum courtyard to the Getty, there is a fountain lined pool for which the visitor is ushered along the North/South axes toward the southern most pavilion and eventually to the southern Promontory with views to downtown Los Angeles. This is reminiscent to the baths & pools centered in Hadrianʼs Villaʼs many Quadrangles.

Within the negative spaces between the Greek Doric colonnades of Hadrianʼs villa there are many gardens lined with promenades of trees with a rhythmic and uniform placement. This is also true of the hillsides adjacent to the Getty, and of course the infiltration of landscape design within the Getty Center plazas as well.

existed in order to be appreciated: a retreat for a romantic longing to wander and think poetic thoughts amid caves and pools and sculpture. Meier imagines you behaving that way, too: strolling in an out of galleries and gardens, in and out of the sun, on an isolated Olympus far from the city. The Gettyʼs dark but skylit galleries are the architects equivalent of the underground cryptoporticus at Hadrianʼs Villa, which is day-lit as well. Instead of capturing sunlight with marble figures, Meier grabs it with his own architectural sculpture. Both buildings are places to be probed and explored over time, places in which you come unexpectedly on one feature or another.” So what does this compare and contrast insinuate about the Getty? It shows mostly the surface level physical characteristics of each design, but what had made Hadrianʼs Villa so successful had much less to do with its design and more to do with the harmonizing of its core users within their historical context. The Villa not only fortified a lasting relationship with emperor Hadiran and this Roman empire, but remained a viable refuge to the emperors that followed. The way architecture can be judged most effectively is to see how historical predecessors have accomplished a successful architectural outcome with their use of design. The way Meier has approached this very project is not merely an aesthetic and ephemeral fleeting style of today, but more globally as an investment in tomorrow. In his initial letter of intent before being awarded the commission for the J. Paul Getty Center, Meier simplified his belief in architecture much as the preeminent designers of the past might have; “ Architecture at its best is an integration of human scale with civic grandeur, decorative simplicity with material richness, and interest in technical innovation with respect for historical precedent.” Many personal principals make a great architectural design, but knowing how to use such principals as a force of recognizable history takes an architect with a knowledge of the past and an ambition for a better future.

In previous papers, I have brought to light the reasons for which the Getty has advanced techniques to fulfill for its modern-day architectural needs. Such innovation as electronically operated louvered skylights, underground service corridors, state-of-the-art security systems, and seismic technology for earthquake contingency have given a competitive edge to this institution to satisfy its complex array of needs and users. The remaining experiential similarities from Getty to the Villa are aptly described by architecture critic Robert Campbell; “Hadrianʼs Villa offers one way of thinking about the Getty. It

Background: In 2006 Bruner/Cott won the invited competition to design the new Arts Campus at Lesley University in Cambridge, MA. The design envisions the site along Massachusetts Avenue as a crossroads for the nearby academic, artistic, and neighborhood communities. The new structure proposes to provide a space for the teaching and making of art, with the Arts Quad covered atrium serving as the epicenter for the College of Art and Design. In order to make this happen, the plan proposes relocating the historic church (moved once before from Harvard Square in 1867) to the south side of the site in order to facilitate construction and help integrate the entire building more seamlessly into the nearby residential neighborhood. Currently this Greek revival church serves a religious organization on the second floor and a preschool on the first floor. Combined, the church currently provides over 15,000 net square feet of usable space. As you can see from the photos on the next page, the main sanctuary has incredibly high ceilings with ample room for an interstitial floor if the program calls for it. My involvement in this project is highlighted on the following pages. In short, I was responsible for the Revit modeling of this existing church from both conventional and unconventional field dimensioning practices.

My involvement: I was not ever part of this project team, but I did spend a formidable amount of time documenting its existing conditions. This first page shows the final result of fellow colleague, Aoife Morris and my efforts to field measure the interior spaces of the church. Over the course of one afternoon we mapped out the worship space on the second floor with only a few floorpans and a couple of tape measurers. Once the measurements were taken it was up to me to bring the measurements into Revit as an ad-hawk 3-dimensional model. The model later was matched up with the exterior conditions to complete the existing conditions package.

LESLEY UNIVER Reflection:

Besides my small scale verifications on my work with the 130 Prospect Street model, this was my first opportunity to field dimension an entire building in one fell swoop. Reflecting on this experience, I gained an appreciation for systematic measurement techniques. When mapping out drawings with dimensions it became important to clearly show overall dimensions and interstitial dimensions separately. Also the way the floor plans are shown before they are measured can be revealing in their own right. If they drawings show a project before design completion, there could be missing walls or openings. This was true in support space at the back of the church. By noticing these differences at the onset, the floor plan clarified itself once I returned to the office to draw in the accurate version.

Introduction to Photomodeler:

Separate from field-measuring and drawing the interior space of this historic Church, I was later asked to research effective and inexpensive means of documenting the exterior. At the time, the program that fitted our needs best was Photomodeler. Because I was both familiar with the buildingʼs geometry and a member of the CAD/IT team, I was chosen to pioneer the first project with our new software. After about 35 hours photographing and using Photomodeler, I was able to transition into building the final Revit model you see on the far right. By comparison, this software cost the company significantly less than paying for a professional surveyor to do equal work.

Photomodeler is a software tool for measuring and modeling real word objects throughout the use of photographs. It uses “photogrammetry” to measure points on multiple images to determine the three-dimensional coordinates of the points. It builds a 3D model based on lines drawn between lines and points referenced in multiple photographs. By contrast, It does not generate geometry automatically. The final product is an exported 3-dimensional framework of lines. In any CAD program, further documentation can be added to this information to produce a more conventional end product.

Techniques for taking photographs: Having the camera set to the highest resolution, more accurate measurements can be taken. Taking too few or too many photographs can have disadvantages. Too few is obviously detrimental to the process, but having a cacophony of photos convolutes the process and takes much more time to sift through.

At the B.A.C., Structures 3 and Designing Architectural Details is taught in unison during the semester. The first half of the semester teaches Structures and the second half Detailing. In the Fall of 2009, these two classes integrated a joint project into the curriculum to make the understanding more coordinated and seamless. Decidedly, the first project was a small scale building in Roslindale, Massachusetts (south of Boston). The floor plan you see on the opposite page was given to us as a starting point for both classes. From their each class diverged into each respective topic of study. In the pages that follow, I will show selected projects from each to give a sense of the class content and the lessons I learned. In both classes we design the building as if it were a new construct. The future use is determined to be an Emergency Ambulance Station with a bakery on the busier street to the northwest. Currently the building is being used as an auto-body shop. The building has two types of exterior walls, a steel framed brick veneer wall and a structural CMU wall. A more descriptive analysis of the building始s intricacies can be found further in this section.

Durning this semester there were several moments of concurrent learning I received between the classroom and the office. During the work weeks I was beginning to receive training on detailing methods in Revit. This bolstered my confidence in drawing methodology when the Detailing class asked for similar style drawings. Also, the roofing drain exercise shown on the following page was re-envisioned in practice when I later worked in designing the roof for the Dartmouth Dining Facility. With these small introductions to pragmatic design I was able to be more conversive when such topics were generated in the work atmosphere.

Step 2 - Factored Moment Step 2 - Factored Moment Mu = ( Wu * l 2 ) / 8 Mu = [ (1.89 kips/ft) * (29 ft)2 ] = 198.7 kip-ft 8

Step 3 - Required Wide-Flange Section (Zx)min = Mu / (0.9 Fy) = (198.7 kip-ft x 12 in/ft) / (0.9 x 50) = 53 in3 Therefore, a W16x31 Beam Section is adequate with Z = 54 in3

Mu = ( Wu * l 2 ) / 8 Mu = [ (0.521 kips/ft) * (38 ft)2 ] = 94.0 kip-ft 8

Step 3 - Required Wide-Flange Section (Zx)min = Mu / (0.9 Fy) = (94.0 kip-ft x 12 in/ft) / (0.9 x 50) = 25.1 in3 Therefore, a W10x22 Beam Section is adequate with Z = 26 in3

Since the W8x58 shape was too heavy for the column to be economical, we must chose a lighter shape. The lighter shape that I will test next is a W8x40 column. Using Table 1-1, shape W8x40 has the following properties: Ag rx ry

Question to Answer: Given the requirements for the detail design problem, what is the “comprehensive description” of the materials and systems you propose to compliment your Structures III design with. Use the technical descriptions found in the “Building Systems” part of Chapter 1 in Architectural Graphic Standards to arrange your response.

My Answer: Given this existing 2 story, bakery and auto body shop, we have a building system of Type III construction. The current use group falls into the category of Type III construction with its occupancy group of “M” for its “Mercantile” qualification. Since the use of the building is changing with the proposed Boston Emergency Medical Services (EMS) substation and Response Center, the use group might change to a High Hazard Group H since it potentially stores and handles hazardous materials. And with the use of the 7th Edition of the Massachusetts State Building Code where we are able to determine that it falls under the Type II construction category. As described in the programmatic requirements for this EMS substation and Response Center, there is a two parcel lot spanning 72 feet in length by 100 feet in length. There is a 2-bay garage that faces southeast to Bexley Street. There is one day room, one locker room, one bakery to the south of the first floor property line, one storage area in the basement, and the Response Center occupying the second floor space. There are 2 unisex bathrooms that both have shower rooms and changing rooms within them. The station is in hopes of attaining the LEED rating of silver after its completion.

The structure of the building has a 12” nominal thickness CMU bearing wall around the southeast and southwest perimeter. The remaining exterior envelope is a light-weight steel frame with brick veneer. The flooring systems are unshored 1-way steel decking slabs with light weight concrete. The roof system is a built-up membrane on rigid insulation with a 2 foot surrounding parapet at the edges. The roof slopes at ¼” per foot from southeast to northwest to meet the intermittent roof drains. The foundation is a continuous concrete footing with one square pile support for the only internal column. The structural beams and girders supporting the first and second floors, and the roof are all wide flange steel extrusions of various sizes, whereas the basement consists of steel reinforced concrete beams and girders. Because the load bearing exterior walls meet at a 90 degree angle in at critical lateral load areas, the cross bracing is a minimal chevron steel brace in the northern parts of the building.

Mechanical systems consist of radiant floor heating through liquid based active solar heating systems and forced air ventilation systems. In the radiant heating liquid floor systems, the flat plate collectors are located on the roof connected to propylene glycol liquid filled pipes that course through the Pex tubing inlayed in the concrete flooring. Photovoltaic panels shall be attached to the roof membrane at an angle sufficient to receive a maximum sun exposure throughout the year.

Problem 1

In response to the two types of cabinets described by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development in their Guide Specifications for Public and Indian Housing, I have chosen to create cabnetry that exemplifies both. The tall vanity casework unit that holds the oven between upper cabinets and lower pull out drawers is exemplary of a “HUD Severe Use Cabinet.” It is made with solid 3/4” lumber (Grade C birch) with corner connections consisting of glued and screwed to a 3/4” square support rods. The toe kick is sized as required by the Architectural Access Board regulations, and is made of the HUD required 3/4” pressure treated lumber. The drawers have all of the mandatory thicknesses and are joined by a dovetail joint in the backs and datoed in to the finished front. Additionally, both drawers can withstand the 75 pound load capacity. The entire system will have been tested for structural proficiency with deflections never exceeding 1/6” per linear foot when loaded for seven days. The entire piece is certified and approved by The Kitchen Cabinet Manufacturers Association (KCMA) and bears the label. Keeping in mind the cost differential in these two HUD qualifications, the other parts of my kitchenette design have lesser qualifications than the aforementioned furniture design. The remaining casework and couterpieces meet the required field measurements for HUD, and meet the AAB minimums for accessibility. The primary differences are the material make-up and the

Problem 2 Compare Crotoneʼs four grades of cabinets to the two grades of cabinets in the HUD guide specification.

My response: Both Crotone cabinets and the HUD guide specifications are affiliated with the KCMA. Crotoneʼs four grades of cabinet have different prices as well as different qualities, therefore they fall under both categories of the HUD specs. The products that are typically lowest in quality (and price) will typically fall under the “Normal/Elderly Use” category of HUD, but only the upper-end cabnetery that fulfills each of the Server Use requirements, can be stamped and approved by the KCMA. The Crotone Server Use cabinets meet all of these requirements simply by following and achieving the high standards of the HUD specs. Such things as Kiln dried solid wood, glued and stapled end panels, and single veneer joints on exterior drawer faces. The only other cabinet type that can meet the Server Use stipulations is the Craftwood Collection. The

few discrepancies between this cabinet and the severe use are its size and its use of hardwood plywood. Otherwise the connections are strongly rabbit joined and wood thincknesses are sufficient to qualify it for the Severe Use standard. The other two collections; Modular, and Vanities are neither properly made strong enough nor, do they meet the material requirements of solid wood, therefore they fall into the Normal Use category of HUD

connection joinery. As I have shown in the drawings, the penetrations through each kitchen piece as well as wall openings have been considered. The oven has a 3” exhaust hose, while the other kitchen services require gas piping and plumbing. The countertops are made of high pressure plastic laminate and particleboard. Similarly the undercounter leg guard is made of inexpensive but effective melamine. Proper blocking is in place to receive the wall fastenings for the two countertops and the elevated cooking range. Lastly, the backsplash is without a joint to avoid mildew or excessive cleaning and/or maintenance.

After drawing a proposal for a dayroom kitchenette, summarize the uses of: industry standards (HUD Guide Specs for Public & Indian Housing), access regulations (521 CMR Section 32), and manufacturerʼs literature (Crotone Cabinets) for interior furnishing systems.

Problem 2 Propose one of the four grades of Crotone cabinets for the use in the Boston EMS substation, and describe why you believe your choice is the most cost effective.

Kitchenette Plan View

SCALE: 1/4" = 1'-0"

My response: I believe that the most cost effective cabinet style produced by Crotone is the Modular Collection. Since this particular product would work effectively in any medium to low use kitchen, it would be a relatively inexpensive alternative to the other 3 types of cabinet produced by Crotone. The particle board material is structurally sound, but over time the ware and tear of constant use might cause structural or finish failure. I could argue that the resiliency of the other types such as the Craftwood or the Severe Use might eventually outweigh the benefits of smaller up front costs, but as a gut reaction to a price constraint, cheapness is what the client has in mind. Given what we know, it is still unknown how this kitchen space is eventually going to be used and for what duration of time, therefore these factors produce an unknown ideal for the end client, the Boston Emergency Medical Response employees. These are the reasons I chose the Modular Collection above the other 3 cabnetry styles by Crotone.

In my first attempt at configuring a kitchenette, there were several great sources: the 521 CMR from the Architectural Access Board, and the Architectural Graphic Standards. Because the AAB is required in this type-M Mercantile use building, there are specific dimensions and restrictions in such a kitchenette design. When drawing the kitchenette I referenced Graphic Standards for typical dimensions for each kitchen unit, such as the refrigerator and the sink.

Problems to respond to 1. List the general requirements for construction details for a fire wall 2. List the specific requirements for construction details for a fire wall (Include requirements for openings). 3. Explain how the proposed design meets the requirements of 780 CMR 7.

My response: The State Board of Building Regulations and Standards defines a Fire Wall as “A fire-resisaance-rated wall having protected openings, which restricts the spread of fire and extends continuously from the foundation to or through the roof, with sufficient stability under fire conditions to allow collapse of construction on either side without collapse of the wall.” In general the Fire Partition is used to separate two or more tenant spaces weather it is residences or places of commerce, as well as other applications like elevator lobbies and corridors walls. The purpose of a fire wall is to shield one compartment of a building from the other incase of combustion on the other side. This is done by having sufficient material between one space and the other to reduce or illuminate the threat of fire spreading across the threshold. Techniques used by designers have been refined and standardized in such building codes put forth by government authorities as the Federal government, the State government, and in some cases the local government. In Massachusetts the 780 CMR takes proven practices and instates them as code for which builders mush comply to build in the state. In the case of the Fire Partition of Section 708, the Fire Wall has to be rated one hour

(some exceptions apply) for it to qualify as an acceptable Fire Wall. Also, in most cases, the wall has to extend a given distance beyond the exterior wall envelope in order for it to mitigate the spread of fire. One major exception is that buildings with effective sprinkler systems are given leniency to this fireblocking or draftstoping principal. In the case where access is needed to pass from one part of the fire wall to the other, special rating systems for doors, openings, penetrations, and ductwork are given. These rating systems are systematically categorized in the later part of Section 7 of the building code though tables and charts. The greater the need for fire resistance the more able designers are to utilize strategies for incorporating both spaces on either side of the Fire Wall. Because we are working with many different types of use groups for this building in particular, there are different requirements to base my design off of. And since EMS inhabits the basement, the use group of F-1 is sufficient for moderate hazard use. With the Bakery on the first floor, a use group classification of F-1 would be most appropriate since bakeries are explicitly mentioned under this use group. And lastly, the 2nd floor has a has a business and administrative usage, therefore use group B shall be designed for on this upper most floor. The type of building discussed and agreed upon is a type II B construction since the steel structure does not have a fire resistance rating. This type of building construction is an Unprotected Non-Combustible building mostly used for commerce (not typically residential). Because it is “Unprotected” the exterior walls do not have to be fire rated, but since we are separating the space, the fire wall will enforce stricter standards for the fire resistance.

The design method I chose to employ for my fire wall was to erect a mostly hollow core, 12 inch Concrete Masonry Unit wall that extends past the original exterior walls by the required 36 inches. Structurally this type of construction should be able to sustain the loads of the floors on either side. The strategy is to have a non-combustible material such as concrete and lime mortar that is thick enough and strong enough to virtually stifle the flame at its face. The floor connections are not as strong as the wall structure when it comes to fire resistance but they are protected by a fire-retarding caulking at the edge and a bolted connection to the infilled concrete blocks. The last concern was to make a foundation that both supported the heft of the Fire Wall but recessed far enough into the ground to lessen the heat transfer in the event of a fire.

For the warmer and more humid climates of Mobile, Alabama, I would change the envelope design to a more permeable system without a vapor barrier nor an air barrier. The use of an air conditioned interior will reduce the humidity levels while the insulation provided should trap enough of the conditioned air to meet comfort levels. Without the air or vapor barriers the warm air that meets the cool air will not have a distinct threshold on which it will produce unwanted amounts of condensation. Similarly if moisture occurs, the drying of the wall will happen much faster. As with the dry climate of Santa Fe, New Mexico, an air barrier might be welcomed, but since the temperature fluctuation is not extreme and the presence of moister is not common, a vapor barrier is not necessary. Otherwise I would keep the overall makeup of the wall the same.

As seen in the wall section below, the design for my brick veneer envelope is based off of the design drawing SK-C3 from our in-class discussion. The Air Barrier is located outside of both types of insulation as to limit the air infiltration through the insulation. This strategy limits the disturbances of construction related activity on this membrane as well as reduces the amount of areas that the air is forced through small cracks in joints therefore making it a more even distribution of air pressure. The Vapor Barrier is located on the area between the two types of insulation. The hope here was that since the air barrier will reduce air movement though the interior parts of the wall, the vapor will have less turbulent vapor movement though the wall. Also the vapor barrier will work in unison with the rigid insulation to produce any condensation on the exterior side of the insulation and funnel any collected water down the provided air space. As for the direction of drying, the materials on either side have enough thickness that the drying can occur to both sides of the vapor barrier.

The photovoltaic panel and its mounting apparatus were essential to this building始s energy reduction, and therefore a necessary design feature. I took a guess at how each panel might be connected to the roof. The final section was very similar to the parapet to the right, but the wall construction was CMU instead of brick.

Select specific manufactured building products that will fulfill a design for: windows, air barrier, and insulation.

Use Chapter 13 of the State Building Code for determining a minimum thermal conductance requirement for Wall Type A in this project. Use this number as a base to determine how to exceed the Massachusetts requirement by 25%.

My response: There are several manufacturers that I have chosen in the design of this cavity wall with brick veneer. I have chosen to have two types of insulation in my wall that fulfill different purposes. The Knauf brand insulation product is the batt type blanket I have chosen to line the steel framed cavity spaces of my envelope design. In designing with this product in unison with Dow brand polyurethane rigid insulation, the batt fulfills a less flammable and more easily installed purpose. In contrast, the rigid insulation is more water resistant and longer lasting. During insulation the rigid foam product can be placed nearest to the air space so that when water collects on the surface it does not permeate through. Similarly, the Prosoco brand fluid-applied air barrier can be applied to the exterior surface of the rigid insulation boards because of their uniformly flat surface characteristics. The last of the products that I have chosen is the Kawneer double hung window so provide a dependable, well made product that has a warranty, a simple installation/maintenance process, and that is useful in keeping heat from transferring from indoors to outdoors and visa versa. In the wall section shown, I have filled the hollow aluminum frame with batt insulation to reduce heat transfer as well. Window: Kawneer AA3350 Isoport Window –Double Hung Air Barrier: Prosoco R-Guard Fluid Applied Membrane Air & Water Resistive Barrier Insulation: 1) Knauf R-8 QT Unfaced 2 ½ ” Batt 2) Dow TUFF-R Commercial ¾” Polyisocyanurate

My response: In the Massachusetts State Building Code, Chart 780 CMR, shows the minimum requirements for exterior wall insulation values. Because the “Wall Type A” that we are designing for is a metal framed above grade wall with fenestration between 10 and 25% of the wall area; we will be using the Table 1304.2.6 to determine our R-value requirements. As shown, the Framed or Masonry wall should be less than 35 pounds per square foot in weight, therefore our requirements yield the R-value of 16 ft²·°F·h/Btu (= R-13 + R-3). Therefore, in order to exceed this minimum requirement by 25% I will have to provide an overall wall design with a R-value of at least 20 ft²·°F·h/Btu (16 x 1.25 = 20). In my design I have determined that the overall value of the system is about 18 ft²·°F·h/Btu. This value is determined by taking both the manufacturerʼs specification values, and the generic values given in the “In-Class Exercise” hand-out, and finding the summation. Below I have documented each of the materials and their associated R-value (starting with the exterior materials and moving to the interior materials):

Material Brick 4” face Air Space Air Film (Interior Wall) Rigid Insulation (TUFF-R) Plywood Sheathing Batt Insulation (Knauf) Gypsum Wall Board (5/8”) TOTAL

R-Value (ft²·°F·h/Btu) = 0.44 = 1.00 = 0.68 = 6.50 = 0.77 = 8.00 = 0.56 = 17.95

SAME AS BELOW

As you can see, the R-value falls short of the goal value of 20 ft²·°F·h/Btu, but this value does exceed the minimum value set forth in the code. In order to design a wall that might have a higher thermal resistance (R-value), I might have increased the wall thickness with thicker insulation, but since the desired grid spacing allows for a given wall thickness of approximately 9 inches, this would require a larger structural grid setback, and in turn, a redesign of the structural system. For now, I will use this wall configuration that yields a R-value which exceeds the Mass code by 12.5% (18 ft²·°F·h/Btu / 16 ft²·°F·h/Btu = 1.125). If I were to use a 3.5 inch batt insulation from Knauf Insulation, I would increase the thermal resistance to 22.95 ft²·°F·h/Btu (13 ft²·°F·h/Btu – 8 ft²·°F·h/Btu = 5 ft²·°F·h/Btu additional resistance to the 17.95 ft²·°F·h/Btu shown above). This wall system would be sufficient to exceed the desired 25% beyond the minimum requirements (43.4% to be exact). 1" BATT INSULATION AROUND SASH 1/2" WATER-RESISTANT GYPSUM WI TH FINISH 2 x 3 WOOD BLOCKI NG TYP. 2 1/2" STE EL FRAMING CH ANEL TYP. 5/8" PLYWOOD SH EATH ING VAPOR B ARRIER 2" BAT T INSULATED STEEL STUD CAVITY 1/2" GYPS UM BOARD WITH LATEX PAINT F INISH

Because this assignment was our second attempt at detailing the envelope on the Washington Street side of the building, we had time to do extensive research on building envelope science. This is evident in my descriptive annotations below pertaining to the qualities of the material, the use of the material, and the location of the material. In this final assignment, material research played a large part in our conception of the final envelope design. Therefore, instead of basing the wall dimensions off of generic sources, we understood the composition of a wall.

Brick is the first line of defense for outside forces of nature that compromise the sanctity of the interior space that designers create. The qualities of brick that make it useful are its rigidity, its impermeability, and its availability as a building material. Air space is essential to the overall brick veneered system because it simultaneously clears out the moisture of the system and gives the envelope a small but useful thermal resistance.

BRICK AIR SPACE

DRAINAGE MESH

PLYWOOD SHEATHING RIGID INSULATION

SEALANT

The drainage mesh shown in the cavity space is designed to slow the impact of water as it falls down the adjacent wall surface as well as temporarily collect water in its fiber as to mitigate standing water at the window head space Sealants are especially important at all thresholds and joints. A foam sealant such as the one shown here fills gaps and cracks efficiently so that neither water nor air can easily pass though the system.

BATT INSULATION Sheathing is useful in a non-load bearing wall system because it provides a rigid layer for softer materials to adhere to and use as support in the installation process.

WEEPS

Rigid insulation is used in this system for several reasons. One, because it has a high thermal resistance in relation to its thickness. Secondly, it is long lasting and resilient. Thirdly, it is has a very low water permeability. And lastly, it is the surface which I believe to be the best host for the fluid-applied air barrier.

FLASHING

As Fred Nashed says in Time Saver Details for Exterior Wall Design, weeps allow water to escape the inside of your wall assembly by having water flow out through the gravitational pull on the water. Flashing is essential in a wall system due to its purpose of forcing water around susceptible materials within or around the wall. It is usually found at the base and the tops of wall assemblies as to protect either end from water infiltration or pooling.

In relation to rigid insulation, batt insulation is used in this system due to its less-flammable nature, and its more easily replaceable location within the wall system. The other beneficial quality to this insulation type is its friction fit nature that allows it to fill hollow areas within the system more effectively than its rigid counterpart.

The vapor barrier is characterized by its extreme resistance to water permeation. In this configuration, I chose to place my vapor retarder closest to the interior for two reasons. For one, it is likely the easiest to install when wrapped around the insulation on the outside of the metal studs. And secondly, in this colder climate, the warm air will typically be on the interior of the building as apposed to the exterior surface. From what Fred Nashed says about vapor retarder, they perform best when they are placed "on the warm side of the envelope assembly to minimize the migration of warm air with more gaseous water into the envelope assembly where it will turn into liquid water."

VAPOR BARRIER

AIR BARRIER

The purpose of the air barrier is to mitigate the infiltration of unwanted air into the interior and conversely to limit the amount of heated or cooled interior air from escaping the building. In the wall system shown, I have provided this wall system with an air barrier on the exterior side of the rigid insulation layer. By doing this I have made a conscious decision to allow for a uniform application of fluid-applied membrane to this flat surface upon the completion of the installation of the rigid foam layer (and before the laying of the brick whythe.

Bruner / Cott & Associates Harvard University Exterior Renovation 1563 Massachusetts Avenue, Cambridge, MA 02138 2 Drafter, Contractor Interface

Background: In 1999 Harvard Real Estate Services (HRES) managed a comprehensive exterior repairs project as part of a larger renovation and expansion of Wadsworth House. The survey records produced by Robert Neiley and Finch & Rose demonstrate a carefully researched approach to the building, identifying original material and documenting sequential alterations after the first house construction in 1721. After a decade, HRES employed ARAMARK to review the current condition of the building and indicate elements of construction that need further evaluation or remedial work. ARAMARK listed two structural items in their condition assessment as potentially problematic, a leaning chimney above the offices of the University Librarian and deteriorating brick at the basement floor in arched structures supporting fireplaces and flues in the floors above. HRES retained Bruner/Cott & Associates to investigate those observations that could involve life safety, and report on priorities for exterior repairs for the whole of Wadsworth House. HRES intended for this survey and analysis to result in drawings and specifications that could be bid competitively and be the Construction Documents for a repairs project in the summer of 2009. With the guidance of Henry Moss, we began this repairs project in May. The scope was clearly defined by Henry and HRES upon initiating the project. It was up to us to create a clear set of bidable drawings for Harvard to use in selecting the appropriate contractor. By the time this project reached completion in September, I learned many things about Construction Administration.

This project made evident to me the non-standard methods of architectural drawing. In the case of smaller scale restoration projects, sometimes standard practices can be bent or broken in order to reach the end goal. In fact, the right hand page was brought about by my suggestion as a supplement to the somewhat banal line drawings. In creating a sheet of photographs, it is easy to cross reference the keynotes (in the upper right of the page) with their real life conditions.

In a project of this nature, it is apparent to see verifiable improvement in comparing before and after photographs. For me, compiling these images in itself was a learning experience. The process was illuminated and made transparent when I categorized the three stages of repair: pre-construction, construction, and post-construction. In only a few days the clapboards and brick were plastered and painted by the painters while carpentry repairs like the shutters and portico took nearly the whole summer.

Stensil work was done by a caligrapher in a few hours time.

1:400

Site Planning & Design is an introductory course to landscape design for architectural students at the BAC. The course touches upon problemsolving approaches to site evaluation, site/building relationships, and site planning. There are three distinct homework assignments during this half-semester course in which us students were required to complete: Assignment #1 - Reading the Site, Assignment #2 - Building Site Relationships, and Assignment #3 - Site Planning of St. Joseph始s Church in Kingston, Massachusetts. These three assignments are shown in this section. The skills I learned in this class were applied in practice a year later when I was designing the egress exit walkway for The Dartmouth Class of 1953 Commons. I used my knowledge of factoring slopes from site lines to create a sloped walkway that was ADA compliant.

INTRODUCTION:

REQUIREMENTS FOR THE SITE ANALYSIS PLAN:

As a class we were asked to visit and observe the nearby gardens and wetlands of the historic Back Bay Fens. We were to make note of the soils, hydrology, wetlands, and climate and depict these qualities in our first of 3 maps of the site. Not much instruction was given as to strategy for mapping, conceptualizing and developing the site, so it was up to us to find our methodology. As you can see above, we were given only a few maps of the site, so our task was to connect these line drawings to our experience on the grounds. You can see on this first map that the photographs within the circles depict the isolated vantage point from each highlighted moment on the map. This strategy helped me visualize the connection between the map and its microcosmic areas.

Locate & label all setbacks from roadways. Locate possible building sites and their optimal orientation. Locate views and opportunities for solar/wind power. Locate possible points of pedestrian entry into the site. Locate possible vehicular entry, circulation and parking. Locate possible locations for a septic system. Locate constraints such as noise, poor views, adjacencies, steep slopes, soils, etc. Identify unique areas that impressed you for example, a beautiful space, a view.

The task of this assignment was to construct 3 maps: (1) a Site Analysis Plan, (2) an Environmental Opportunities & Constraints Plan, and (3) a Site Strategy Plan. The Site Analysis is shown on the page to the right. The other two plans are shown on the page spread that follows.

SITE DESIGN

INITIAL IMPRESSIONS OF THE SITE:

Having never spent time in the Fens, I was not familiar with the layout of the site in the Upper Basin. I suspect that I, like most people, have circumvented this nature area and its Victory Gardens because of its inconspicuous nature. Prior to visiting this site on September 12, 2009, I associated this area as more of a complimentary space to the surrounding buildings, than a centralized space in itself. The thoroughfare of pedestrian and, more commonly, vehicular traffic lends itself to a prominent edge condition. To me, the Fens, as with many nature areas within an urban setting, is contrasted starkly with its abrupt threshold. I felt that there was an opportunity to soften that edge with the mitigation of overbearing tree canopy and thick foliage. Once I had explored the Fens with an analytic eye, I found that it is a sanctuary that had not reached its full potential. The community gardens were intriguing and gave a personal touch to an otherwise unclaimed space, but overtook the Western side of this basin. The Phragmites reed grass does inhibit views of Muddy River as well as the adjacent side of the river. The existing pathways were quite nice besides these aforementioned qualities. With the introduction of a Nature Center and a boardwalk, this site would be much more of a destination than simply a pathway from one end to the other. As a last point, the introduction of more pathways would provide a less prescriptive pathway though the site and more of an exploratory measure.

assignment two | building site relationship BACKGROUND The first assignment dealt mostly with abstract diagrams of the site from the arial view. In the second assignment, we were introduced to the representation and design of site grading. This proficiency was an important skill to have learned for later testing in the Architectural Registration Exam. We were given a topographical plan of a hypothetical sloped site with which to make our new designs. The size of the buildings were given and the required grading was mandatory. With the skills we learned in the classroom, we were to make 3 schemes with the appropriate grading and building placements. To this point we had learned about the ADA accessibility requirements, the properties and design of a swails and drainage paths, and how to calculate the slope over a given distance. All of these aptitudes were made evident in this second assignment.

REQUIREMENTS

Part 2 – Schematic Grading and Drainage Design

Part 3 – Final Grading and Drainage Design

Attach a photocopy of Part 2 requirements. 1 final grading/drainage design plan (1” = 20’ scale) Place six townhouse units (3 pairs) on the site. Take one of the two conceptual designs and draw: 1 full section that illustrates your site idea (1/8" scale) Each front entry is to be 4 feet lower than each rear entry. 1 schematic grading/drainage design plan (1” = 20’ scale). The difference in elevations between the pairs should be less than 6 ft. indicate the ideas of your grading. Refine the grading and drainage plan Provide a hard surface terrace at the rear of each unit (minimum of 8’ depth) grade the terrace away from the building include: 2 ADA parking spaces (no more than 100' from each unit’s front door) (with 2% wash for drainage). curbs, Accessible path required to connect the parking to the doors. swales and side slopes shall not exceed 30%, roadway, Establish spot elevations at all parking lot corners, center of swales shall slope between 5% and 12%. parking lot Assume a 6" curb or alternative.

Given only an AutoCAD site plan with topography and the current location of St. Josephʼs Church, we were to research and interpret this heavily sloped site based on the a set group of buildings, parking spaces, pathways, vehicular drop-offs, planted groves, and the like. Instead of simply placing boxes on the site for building program, we were asked to think of the proximity of buildings and the exterior space they created between them. Ephemeral elements like sun direction, wind direction, and other weather factors were to be a paramount to our design. The final twist was that our site had to inform physical guidelines that appealed to a particular religion. The religion of my choosing was Buddhism.

Logic of Architecture

History & Theory Elective Class Code: HT7530 Studio Instructor: Dr. Edward Kamoski Fall 2009

Language & Architecture is a class taught by Professor Edward Kamoski as a History Theory Elective at the Boston Architectural College. The class is primarily a socratic seminar dealing with topics of semiotics, philosophy, and aesthetics as it pertains to architecture. As the class name implies, linguistics was the linchpin of weekly discourse, although generally the topic evolved into defining what it means for something to be beautiful or aesthetically pleasing. In retrospect the class was merely an opinion based class with subjectivism at its core. The suggested readings engaged a more focused discussion, however the overall message was unfortunately biassed. Despite the skewed pedagogy, my arguments questioned the non principled responses to a universal pulchritude. We were asked by Dr. Kamoski to submit 4 “Prospective Papers” and one final synthesizing paper that combined topics from the previous papers. Our topics were entirely self motivated and unfiltered. In other words we could write about anything we pleased. Generally the chosen paper topics ran parallel to class discussions, but in my case, I tried to ground my topics in reason and personal exploration. The first four prospective papers I wrote were titled as follows: Beauty and Language as it relates to the Genzyme Building, Experiencing the Harry Parker Boathouse, The Infinite Cross-Section of Architecture, and Logic of Architecture: Creating Meaning through Language & Truth.

Like the first paper, I did a similar exercise with a building along the Charles river in Brighton, Massachusetts by the architecture firm Anmahian-Winton. Unlike the Genzyme building, I had visited the boathouse previously and seen an exhibit about it through the BAC. I was drawn to its unique architectural style and beauty, but instead of selfreflecting, I wanted to analyze it on a purely formal and objective basis. The third paper took the famous text by Vitruvius, the Ten books of Architecture and reinterpreted it in todayʼs context from a personal standpoint. In the final paper I did a book review on William J. Mitchellʼs book The Logic of Architecture and related it to the class discussion about beauty and aesthetics. I questioned the relationship between language and the mind and how certain descriptive words held different meanings based on the moment of our learning of that word. This final paper set the tone for the final paper you see highlighted on the page spread that follows. The final paper is a retrospective look at all of the topics discussed and written about throughout this class. I present this paper as a look at my theoretical approach to design and beauty and a privileging of my own sensibilities.

In my first paper I studied the Genzyme building in Cambridge, Massachusetts since I had not yet had the opportunity to visit the acclaimed building. I was intrigued by the notion of experiential beauty; being in the moment and learning of an objects beauty at that moment. By deriving a sense of beauty as it is fresh in your memory I argue that you can analyze and absorb not only the apparent qualities but also the qualities that are subtle, abstract or altogether subconscious (transcendental). Even if the Genzyme building has been described and analyzed to no end, there was a certain ineffability to it that could not be imparted to someone whom has not seen it for themselves. I attempted to read this building from first hand experience instead of being exposed to interpretations of others.

| the meaning of beautiful, useful, and lasting architecture

The study of architecture is the study of meanings. Vitruvius ascertains Semantics is the analysis of meaning in that the three guiding principals of architecture are utilitas (usefulness), firmas language. Syntactics is the structure or (durability), and venustas (beauty). By his standards every compulsion of both grammer of language. Programatics is the architectural practice and architectural appreciation stems from these three study of behavior in language. Each condicategories.

It is noteworthy that despite the antiquity of his field semiotics. Take, for example the well known work, The Ten Books on Architecture, the text possesses a ubiquity English language. The word “architecture” and relevance even for the present day architect. is built with twelve separate letters, four of This begs the question, can Vitruviusʼ concepts, found in todays pracwhich repeat within the word, and all of tice, point to a universal truth or guiding principal for architecture, or which are linearly organized in relation to conversely, does no such connection exist? The stroke of this inquisition is the other. Much can be said about the broad, but it leads to a more oblique and ethical question of; what drives humans visual appearance of this very word, but the to design the built environment? In asking these questions, one might seek out point being made is that it because it is a a definitive conclusion, but find little substantiality. With subjectivity at the word that nearly all english speaking and helm, finding the underlying truths to architectural work is intrinsically an introenglish literate people can recognize, it has spection into ones own beliefs. To evaluate architecture is to put into words a significant bearing on how we interpret and belief system based on an individualʼs observations. react to the meaning when written or In brief, what is being explored is this: as architectural designers, how do spoken. we frame our belief system to fulfill a balanced and useful reaction to the On the macrocosmic level of syntactics human condition?

To many, if not all of the souls on earth, the another. A word within a phrase is impulse to create is second nature. Inaction is the only adversary to analogous to a building within a creative expression. By the order of logical principals, to do one city.

Sociologist Benjamin creative endeavors. As a living, breathing human, Lee Whorf has explored this conundrum of Linguistic the fabric of our being is a constant stream of Relativism in his studies. It is interesting to ponder this thoughts and emotions. Social interaction is a product of notion of whether or not we learn language independently of taking these internal functions and externalizing them for our thought process, or if the language that we learn influences the betterment of ourselves and our fellow community. our behavior and mental processes. Although this is a broader When we speak to one another through a common language topic than what is at hand it is important to recognize that this we are lessening the anxiety of not knowing what the other is an important part of our learning process and by extension, person is thinking. an important part of our design sensibility.

A conversation between two individuals is a

dynamic exchange of giving and taking that can be separated categorically into statements, inquiries, commands, inferences, salutations, and silences. But more generally, a verbal exchange is sometimes not even an exchange of ideas, but more simply an absorption or repulsion of another individualʼs ideology. Rhetorical language is a passive expression of ones ideas, but contrary to that emotive language is meant to engage the intended audience with a verbal rebuke or a non-verbal reaction. For example, when a teacher asks a student to hand in an assignment, he might say the the student, “would you please pass me your assignment.” Whereas, a rhetorical or informative phrase might be to address the class and say that homework will be passed in whenever it is completed” this is a less overt way for that instructor to relay a similar message. The formulation of phrases is important to communicate well as a designer, but in unison with that, a designer would benefit from a mastery in denotative and connotative vocabulary. A denotation specifically puts a word under scrutiny to establish its finite and accepted meaning. When the word has a connotation associated with it, it delves into the more cultural and social implications of using that word for a desired emotional or evocative effect. Knowing the denotation to a word is the most effective way of standardizing the language with which to communicate. If a word can be misinterpreted while relaying an idea to an associated project architect, there exists a chasm between the intent and the understanding. If an architect were to ask a fellow draftsperson to bring the wall forward, the meaning might be construed as up, down, left, or right since the establishment of “forward” might not have been discussed. All of these literary tools are mentioned not to distract from the original notion of finding a metaphysical foundation for which architects base their designs, but to strengthen the argument for determining a comprehensive approach to the practice of building. When Vitruvius first involved himself in the exhaustive measure of writing his Ten Books on Architecture, he began with his own ideology based on what he had learned about architecture up until that point in his life. From that point on, he had received enough life experience to formulate a conclusive and evident truth to relay to others in the realm of architectural practice. The

success of his Ten Books was not simply by chance, but because he put forth his most devoted effort to delivering his point of view to enhance the lives of others. More than that, other people like myself, have benefited from his lessons and his word. In my third paper, I attempted a similar approach to Vitruvius in a modern day interpretation of my personal belief system as it pertained to architecture. By giving my humbled point of view on my holistic and integrated involvement in architectural practice, I intended to impart ways in which the field of architecture has touched the lives of all of the people in todays age. In doing a summary of the practice of architectural I will relay, once again this belief system. At first I wish to privilege my broad categories and later, elaborate on each. As its base, architecture is an instinct that mankind has an affinity to. As a bird creates a nest for its own shelter and the nurture of its young, so too does humankind. Architecture has a primal nature in which a human sustains a barrier between himself and the conditions in which he is vulnerable to. Despite this assertion, we as humans have come a long way since the purely pragmatic and formulaic response to building. In fact, one might say that architecture of today prides itself in promoting the humanʼs fondness for extravagance and whimsicality. With this polarization in mind, we as designers have the internal dialogue in every decision we make to pin the one extreme of practicality against the other extreme of aesthetic allure. This preoccupation with juxtaposition is what fuels the architectural impetus. In my Ten Books of architecture, I would have these books of

separate titles: Biocentricity, Creativity, Conventionality, Opportunity, Social Imperatives, Morphology, Aesthetics, Linguistics, Nature, and Technology. Each title represents a heading which encapsulates an important part of the total spectrum of architecture. In the first book, I would describe architecture in purely life sustaining forms since this is what many people sympathize with in their common day to day interaction with architecture. Instead of the built form being the object of analysis, the built environment takes precedent in many ways. Creativity is the second book simply because it is more a product of the mind. To me, creativity is the humanʼs ability to cultivate thought and harness its potential. The practice of creating something

LANGUAGE & ARCHITECTURE from nothing is central to architectural core values. Whereas important items completed efficiently and graceother art forms create an outlet though more immediate results, fully. architecture is a more involved process than most. To take an Some might say that nature is the counterpart architectural piece from conceptual design to completed to most architecture, but truly the two worlds are construct, countless hours and resources have to be invested in integrated in many ways. If it were not for the condithe design. Therefore the creativity poured into a singular building tions that nature gives to architects, the practice of is both short term and enduring. It is not simply making small decisions to creating exceptional and comfortable architecture no end, it is a vision that one person has and forces his or her way to its would be futile. Nature is a very symbiotic countercompletion part to the built environment. Without one, the Conventionality says that architecture is only a means to an end. other would not be possible. Conventional architects chose a more pragmatic approach to design, but Lastly, for my final book on architecture, I deliver immediate and unwavering results. Convention proves to be would attest that technology is the final frontier of decisive and uniform like in rectilinear architectural design. As time has the architectural practice. Like creativity, this shown, building buildings that form simple right angles and orthographic concept of technology is the creative mind applied shapes is one of the fastest and least expensive methods for design. This is to the successful benefit of the profession. Technolperhaps the most cogent argument for architectural convention. ogy allows architects to not only speed up the Opportunity brings time and unpredictability into the nature of process of design, but to also spend the remaining architecture. Even though there is plenty of need for architecture and the time they have saved on the more important aspects service of architecture, each opportunity for design is what produces a new of design. Technology like the computer and electric and unique permutation of what we see as architectural design. Every time powered equipment have enhanced the underan architect or several architects embark on new projects, this is not only an standing and potential of architecture and has given opportunity for them to display their reaction to a particular challenge but us an entirely new direction for the ways that we it is also an opportunity for all of the project’s beneficiaries. conduct our lives. Social imperatives are codes by which an architect or designer is By furthering the profession and execution of governed by in order to safely practice their profession. Like in architectural practice, there is a sense of permamy first description of architecture’s essential nature of nence that society is endowed with. When one project or piece of sheltering humans from their exterior environment, the fact architecture is erected, it is essentially a stated claim that he as the that the piece of architecture itself needs to architect has a visualization and set of ideas that equally lend to sustain a code of safety to protect its inhabaesthetic appeal as they do to its mathematical and organized itants. More specifically, safety in today’s execution. Each of these small statements of architecture bring to age of skyscrapers and elaborately built bear a conversation based on time and effort. Effort being the structures, a specific fire escape is essential architects willingness to participate in the language of his day and for life safety as well as structural integrity. further expand the architectural cannon for future generations. Such concerns are second nature to most The truest logic that can be said about architecture is architects, but are highly important in the that it holds meaning for everyone on every stratosphere in overall considerations of a design. varying intensities. The passion and skill that go into a European Aesthetics is what Vitruvius refers to as cathedral can hold just as much meaning and order to a particular beauty. Beauty is not simply the ineffable set of people as one minimalistic Miesian pavilion can hold to the quality of a person’s affinity to an object, person or piece of Bauhaus contemporaries of 20th century design. Each design is a music, but it is a gage by which the community at large can statement independent of the other, but recollective of what the decipher the significance or value they place on the forefathers have come to attain through a lifetime of architectural architect’s effort. The assessment of an architectural work is logic. Every individual has the capacity to care for himself and just as meaningful as its performance since it is meant to sustain his being, but it is when that individual rises above the inspire as much as it is to serve the people who utilize its routine of reenactment that he builds both an identity for himself, services. and in turn an identity of his legacy. As I have mentioned above, linguistics is the way an architect relays information to another party, whether it be his associate, his client, his users, his contractor or even himself. For an architect to have a command over the language in which he speaks gives him an edge in his business of getting

Background and Description of the Project: In 1937 architect Jens Frederick Larson designed Thayer Dining Hall, a building on the Dartmouth College Campus just west of the famous Green. The building contains a number of discrete dining rooms, kitchens, conference rooms, offices, and a convenience store. It is an entirely brick clad building that has gone through three major additions and several more smaller reconfigurations. Currently Thayer Dining Hall is a 72,065 square foot facility comprised of three floors: basement (28,640 sf), first floor (29,123 sf) and second floor (14,302 sf). Until now, the last major renovation was carried out in the early 1972 by architects Childs Bertman Tseckares, Inc. Because Thayer is now the only dining facility on the Dartmouth Campus, itʼs upgrades and retrofits were a top priority for the college in 2009. Apparently dining is a significant revenue booster for undergraduate campuses. In the case of Thayer Dining Hall, Dartmouth had seen a lucrative venture in modernizing this heavily used common meeting place.

In this section: introductory pages code analysis existing conditions: elevations and windows schematic design social space exterior egress path design social space entry walkway design current basement and first floor plans current roof plan bathroom design kitchen layout office layout finishes and wall partitions doors

The funding for this project was heavily provided for by its class of 1953 alumni. Originally Bruner/Cott had previously taken a commission and completed fully bidable construction documents for a new dining commons but had the bottom drop out, so to speak, because of unfavorable market conditions and expensive new-building costs. Now, with a renewed ambition and market upswing, the Thayer Dining Hall is the new object of Dartmouthʼs attention and efforts. With the funding coming from its alumni, the hall will now be called the Class of 1953 Commons. Recently, after the bid on Bruner/Cottʼs 2010 Summer CD Set, the building costs come in on budget to around $18 million. This is based on a full interior renovation of almost every part of the building and an envelope upgrade. The proposed programming uses are explained in the pages that follow. This existing building is the most recent project I have been working on at Bruner/Cott. Laurie Soave, Scott Chisholm and Michael Kyse have been the three project managers, while Mark Rogers and I are the two drafters.�

Background: Central to the construction or renovation of any publicly accessed building is the unwavering constriction of architectural code. Code is implemented for many reasons and often from various governing bodies. For Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire, the codes in which the town must abide are split between the International Building Code (IBC 2009) and the National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA 7.0). My Involvement: In determining the stipulations of the code, I was one of the point persons for our project. Our code consultant, Vernon Woodworth, was helpful in answering perplexing questions, but in general it was between Scott Chisholm and I to assess and interpret the code as it relates to the dining facility at hand. In short, I became an expert at the process of determining occupants and their subsequent egress paths for this building. Using my Revit knowledge, I created a system for identifying rooms and interstitial areas by their use group and square footage. In turn the program determined the occupancy load by room, by floor, and for the entire building. The colored area plans shown on the right hand page are a visual result of this work. The color coding legend is displayed above. The predecessor to the Revit system, shown to the left, shows calculations based on arbitrary regions. After many iterations, due to plan and program changes, it was evident that an efficient and updatable system would save time and energy. The program, Revit, proved to be the most ideal tool for this exercise. After determining the occupancy for each region and subregion, the egress patterns were the next complicated step in the building始s design. The trace-paper sketch to the left is my diagram of the basement egress possibilities based on a fixed occupancy count and a fixed number of exits. Once a conception of the egress quantities was determined, the proposed doors, stairs and ramps were appropriately resized. The code sheet on the left hand page represents the latest thinking in our code analysis for the Class of 1953 Commons. I show this page as the first display because its ramifications dictate later designs that I was involved in (see social space exterior egress path design, social space entry walkway design, bathroom design and doors).

renovation project | schematic design Background After the Existing Conditions drawing set, immediately I transitioned into the Schematic Design Drawings with Principal Dan Raih and Laurie. I had been the primary image graphic editor as well as Revit user on this phase. It was in this phase that the team dynamic changed with the addition of Mark Rogers as the second drafter and Robert Lavash hired to manage our tasks and metabolize the work flow. Coincidentally Robert was succeeded by Michael Keys about the time this phase was complete.

The Proposed Program agreed upon by Dartmouth is as follows: Food Service / Dining (1000 seat minimum) Servery Back of House Kosher Hallal Receiving / Loading Dock Meat Prep Business Offices Conference Room Card Offices Social Space / Graduate Suite

Reflection The images shown below are a indicators of some of my work at the beginning of SD. In short, I was the expert at image manipulation in Photoshop. Although much of the freehand outlines were drawn by Dan Raih, it was my job to piece the disparate elements and layers into the finished floor plans seen below. Occasionally Dan was not available to draw certain elements of the design, therefore it was my job to draw and incorporate my freehand work into the drawings. The color schemes were a shared responsibility of Mark Rogers and myself. At this point in the design, the main concern was meeting the minimum 1000 seat stipulation agreed to by Dartmouth and Bruner/Cott. In turn, other programatic spaces were secondarily designed and later on made more paramount.

Not shown in this spread is the work done after these diagrams. After several schemes were presented to the decision makers at Dartmouth, the design began to take shape and a hard-lined drawing set was produced. In Revit, we incorporated our proposed floor schemes by underlaying the Photoshopped images and essentially building scope into the drawing set. Learning that nothing is every final in this phase, Mark and I used “Design Options� as a feature in Revit to aid the constantly sporadic jumps from one scheme to another. This phase was a little over a month in duration

DARTMOUTH COLL


As I hinted at in the code analysis spread, this outline shows the conception and finalization of the exit pathway from our proposed egress stair in the fold of the southwest part of the building. By showing the three sketches below I wanted to indicate the additive process to design through its many iterations. During the course of this project, I became cognizant of the ephemeral and malleable nature of ordinarily concrete elements. The lesson I learned was to update the referrefer enced drawings so that all of the latest information could collect itself in one repository and thereby eliminating confusion.

The finalized sloped path drawing immediately below was initiated and drawn by me. The annotations are meant to clarify the intent and be a reference for our basis of design. The numbers below indicated points on the slope are reference point heights given to us by our Civil Engineering consultant, Engineering Ventures. By code (ADA), the slope of the walkway had to be less than 1 to 20 in order to avoid having to put railings on either side and a landing every 30 feet. At this time in the design, our path and stairs had to both accommodate 153 occupants from our code calculations, and therefore had to be a certain width or greater according to IBC 2009.

Background: The social space is an area for students and alumni to congregate which is fundamentally separated from the rest of the building. As the building exists today, the space inhabiting this southern basement area is a bakery, a locker room, storage rooms and mechanical rooms. The goal of the new accessible ramp at main entry and the new entry to Social space was to: - Create a well designed pedestrian access that integrates the visual connection at this central apex, - Respond to the existing building with scale and materials, - Create a point of destination, - Integrate with the landscape, and - Visually identify the separate building entrances.

renovation project | social space entry walkway design

DARTMOUTH COLL My involvement:

Like I mentioned earlier, building code played a role in the design of this sloped walkway. Understanding the large occupancy load quantity of this space, Scott Chisholm and I designed this path along the building to comply with code and to fit within the property line shown in blue on the opposite page. The head house was to be an entirely new construct to present the entrance as an architectural design feature. Since the stairs within the head house had to be accessible, we designed the space to include a platform rail lift by the company Garaventa. The main challenge of this design was finding the balance between the amount of risers and the amount of sloped path so as to reach the basement level without causing extensive excavation.

And like I spoke about in the structures section, this instance of design was an excellent example of concurrent learning. About 6 months prior to this roof design, for the first time I was exposed to low-sloped roofs in Amir Mesgarʼs class. I incorporated my knowledge into this Dining Hall Facility since the existing roofs not only were getting replaced, but re-sloped to accommodate the new insulation and drainage design. Like in Amirʼs class, I made prominent the governing slope within each bay by showing a grey pattern in the drawing to the bottom right. The design had to follow accurate indicators of roof steel structure in order for it to properly function. For this, coordination was necessary between us at Bruner/Cott and our structural engineer, Folley Buhl & Associates. The details to the left are all drawn by me and designed by Michael Kyes. In drawing these, I learned about how to articulate roof connections and structural bracing in a coherent manner.

The DNA of a bathroom became clarified during the many redesigns in which I was a part of. Once again, the designs of these individual bathrooms were driven by occupancy and code requirements. I became familiar with ADAʼs 5ʼ diameter barrier free zone, the door swing implications, the minimum toilet stall dimensions, the locations of grab bars, and the 18” door pull zone. Besides the code, I understood what to do about leftover space, and why to line up tile patterns to bathroom fixtures. And lastly I learned about wet walls and plumbing types for wall mounted or floor mounted toilets. All of these lessons increased my adeptness for bathroom design.

8 15' - 7 1/2"

12' - 0"

Through the course of the project, the bathrooms have incurred drastic changes both in their locations in the building and their individual layouts. Until Michael Kyes introduced his design option for stacked bathrooms in the northeast part of the building (his sketches are shown above), bathrooms were shuffled around and placed into the most peculiar locations. As the design stands today, the bathrooms exist in the several spaces highlighted on the basement and first floor plans a few spreads previously. In this spread I show a procession from oldest design to latest from left to right. I chose not to include the finalized bathroom construction drawing so that the notations and process take precedent.

DARTMOUTH COLL renovation project | kitchen layout

Coordination: Since the back of house is a crucial part of the dining hallʼs functionality, Bruner/Cott opted to hire an expert foodservice consultant, Ricca Newmark Design. From Schematic Design on, coordination with them played a large part in how the basement and first floors were laid out. It was up to us to relay design intent to them while they notified us if specific areas were unable to accommodate our design. Their expert knowledge of kitchen infrastructure and sizing was essential to our process. In the hard-line drawings to the right, the grayed-out lines are what Ricca Newmark had given us as their Revit model. When lines overlapped for whatever reason, it was up to me or Mark Rogers to coordinate the resolution. There was occasionally a grey area between who “owned” what in the overall scope of work. For example, certain walls were provided in our model, while cooler and freezer walls were provided by Ricca Newmark. What I Learned: After following Ricca Newmarkʼs and Scott Chisholmʼs lead, I was able to learn about an efficient and workable kitchen layout for which a dining facility of this size can provide for 1,000 diners. I understood the necessity for floor drainage in this space. I found out to what degree Kosher foods needed to be prepared separately from other foods. Lastly I learned that this type of kitchen, as with many kitchens need a large amount of both counter space and storage space.

GENERAL NOTES - FLOOR PLANS

3. VERIFY ALL EXISTING CONDITIONS IN FIELD AND REPORT ANY DISCREPANCIES TO THE ARCHITECT IMMEDIATELY.

Lessons I Learned:

5. KITCHEN EQUIPMENT IS SHOWN FOR REFERENCE ONLY. SEE QF DRAWINGS FOR MORE INFORMATION.

NON-MASONRY PARTITION

6. PROVIDE ADEQUATE BLOCKING AND BACKUP FOR INSTALLATION OF ALL EQUIPMENT. WOOD BUMPER RAIL

7. ALL NEW ROOF INULATION SHALL BE TAPERED TO EXISTING DRAIN LOCATIONS. 8. ALL EXISTING PARTITIONS NOT FURRED OUT MAY REQUIRE PLASTER PATCHING. CONTRACTOR SHALL CARRY 25% PATCHING.

Unfortunately our Revit model was not drawn entirely from field dimensions and many of the areas considered for office space use were depicted incorrectly for the entirety of the design. The line diagram with dimensions shows our very recent visit to Dartmouth in which we verified the existing space layout for the largest proposed office space. After drawing this, I overlaid the 2-dimensional lines on top of the basement plan and immediately understood the discrepancies.

Similar to bathroom and kitchen layouts, offices are yet another programatic element that needed design consideration. The colored document shows the various uses and densities for the office spaces. All of these drawings are in plan view because that is the first order of design in a spacial layout. 29

9. ALL WORK IS NEW UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED AS EXISTING.

Despite his best efforts, the dining operations director was changing the staff quantities and his preferences for certain spaces within the building. Some office staff were given more preferential and optimal areas, while others were assigned to areas with little to no natural light. The current office workers occasionally needed more space due to their collections of bookshelves, desks or other bulky objects. All of these factors were not concrete, but made for a more prescribed design.

10. CONTRACTOR SHALL VERIFY ALL EXISTING CONDITIONS AND DIMENSIONS, AND WILL NOTIFY ARCHITECT AT ONCE OF ANY DISCREPANCIES BETWEEN THE EXISTING CONDITIONS AS INIDCATED ON DRAWINGS AND ACTUAL FIELD CONDITIONS AND RECEIVE WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONS PRIOR TO PROCEEDING.

renovation project | finishes and wall partitions Wall Partition Details: The wall partitions shown above were initiated by Mark Rogers and carried through by me with the help of Michael Kyes. From the Ramsey/Sleeper Architectural Graphic Standards book I was able to determine wall types that pertained to our project. I was familiar with basic 4 7/8” drywall partitions at the start, but shaft walls, insulated furring walls and wet walls were new to me. In retrospect, I concede that the best way to understand a detail is to learn to articulate it through drawing it..

Before this project, my exposure to interior design elements was limited. I had worked on one other master bathroom renovation in early 2009 that introduced me to intimacy and aesthetic of a small space. This project compounded the complexity of that one space by many orders of magnitude. Because of this, it was necessary for Bruner/Cott to re-hire Pam Davies for the product specification and interior design of the dining hallʼs spaces. To summarize the descriptive interiors narrative, Dartmouthʼs Class of 1953 Commons shall be of a somewhat Nordic yet modern style. A touch of contemporary flair should combine with the modern amenities like: bleached woods, clean lines, light backgrounds and splashes of classic colors.

DARTMOUTH COLLEGE

5C

The main areas of diverse identity and gravitation are to be the Lobby, the North Dining area, the South Dining area, the Servery, and the Communicating Stair to the second floor. The primary materials in these spaces are, stainless steel, tile, wood, carpet, gypsum wall board, acoustic ceiling tile, concrete, paint, and exposed brick. In our design we kept in mind that pieces of art (the Winter Carnival Posters, paintings by Andy Warhol, a sculpture, and paintings that are currently hung in the building) were to be placed throughout the building in a celebratory manner to give the walls and niches aesthetic appeal.

Lessons Learned: I understand what this project means for the the client / architect relationship. Like with Harvard Wadsworth House, this project builds a relationship of Bruner/Cott and Dartmouth College that holds the possibility for future designs if Bruner/Cott rises above the expectations of Dartmouth. What I had learned from being a part of this project is that one of the most powerful ways to impress a client in an Existing Building project is by visually enhancing the spaces in which workers and users alike spend a large portion of their day. Appropriately chosen finishes and innovative interior design capture the feel of the space more effectively than the simple geometry and program. I gather that these reasons are why so much attention is paid to the careful blending of style, color, texture and light.

My General Involvement with Doors: In December of 2008, I was involved in a project with our CAD Expert, Lyle Lemon, in which he asked me to create parametric door families (similar to AutoCAD blocks) that would serve as the standard door components for Bruner/Cott. Over the course of the next year I would build, refine, test, and engineer highly complex families that became standard in our office protocol. Each “family� was identifiable by its frame type. For example, double door hollow metal masonry head, or single door wooden frame with sidelight and transom. I created about 12 different door frame families, each with a variation of door panel types that were interchangeable within the family. The doors had varying parameters like masonry head height, butted or wrapped connections, uneven panels, and so on. Over the course of this year I learned many of the physical intricacies of doors, but my work on Dartmouth expanded my knowledge on more minute and sophisticated fields of door knowledge. I learned about hardware, weather stripping, closers, and card access. At the start of the door project in 2008, I had severely underestimated the complexity of doors and the myriad of permutations to doors within a project. My Involvement with Dartmouth Doors: Before hiring a door consultant it was Scott Chisholm, Pam Davies and myself that took a first pass at specifying doors for the project. Pam, who had the best sensibility for the feel of the space made suggestions after Scott and I discussed materiality. We had three possible categories from which we first chose: Hollow Metal doors, Wooden doors, and Aluminum doors with glass. In classic wood accented spaces such as the lobby, the conference rooms, and the social spaces we thought Wood would be most appropriate. Aluminum doors with glass were agreed to be in delicate and more public spaces. And lastly Hollow Metal doors fulfilled the heavy-duty back of house and storage uses. The sizes of the doors were determined by existing openings, if there was one, except when the opening did not accommodate the proper egress width. Otherwise, the size of the openings were based on our discretion and best judgement (3 ft. by 7 ft. being the default size). DOOR HEIGHT

Summary and analysis of the experience and skills learned:

dartmouth class of 1953 commons

Over the course of this project, there were many challenges and lessons learned. At the forefront of my recollection is the regret I feel towards our rushed existing conditions measurements and the subsequent unverified dimensions in the Revit model. This particular grievance had compounding ramifications later in the project that was unfortunately reckless and foreseeable. At a “Lunch and Learn” in January, I was given insight, as many of us did, about the technology of 3D Laser Scan Surveying by Feldman & Associates. Within a dayʼs time one of their surveying staff could completely map out and scan this entire building, to have a highly accurate point cloud model at our disposal. Not only could this have happened, but it partially did, and Feldman & Associates scanned part of Thayer Dining Hall and showed us a virtual walk-through movie of this. I couldnʼt be sure the price difference, but the Lunch and Learn presenter eluded to its relatively inexpensiveness and its time saving effectiveness. The raw data that they could have collected would be invaluable if it was properly integrated into our existing conditions model. The energy and time we have spent verifying, reassessing and speculating has been an extreme burden on our project staff. This, in my opinion, was our greatest oversight to date. Second in my list of robust lessons learned on this project was to not only manage my time for future tasks, but look retrospectively at how my time has been spent. Before this project, my direction of thinking was mostly in the forward motion, but I learned that as a project progresses, it is crucial to keep key elements of the design (like code, cost, and structural integrity) in the back of your mind. Because this project was somewhat limited by rapidly approaching deadlines, I learned to give my supervisors a piece of mind by keeping them posted on all aspects of my work and progress. Last, but not least important in my lessons learned, was my understanding of interpersonal relations within the office setting. In all honesty, our project team was dysfunctional. Personalities clashed due to miscommunication and close-mindedness. The working environment in our part of the office became anxious, guarded and sterile to new ideas. With three project managers who fundamentally disagreed with one another and manic deadline frenzy, the work environment for us two drafters became schizophrenic and occasionally undirected. But all-in-all I have learned what I could from my tasks and my initiatives. Even in this turbulent working environment, my principal of self-betterment has never been compromised.

In the time I have spent at the B.A.C., creating art for the sake of expression and craft refinement unfortunately has not been a luxury I have allotted much time to. Most of the studies and explorations I have endeavored deal mostly with the office work or student obligations at hand. In my Segment 1 portfolio, I displayed nearly all of the notable freehand sketches from my Fall 2007 Freehand Drawing class. In the accordance with my wish to make this work exclusive of its predecessor, I have these few sketches which come from my years previous to my studies at the B.A.C. The rendering to the right is a portrait of the musician, Kurt Cobain. The rendering below is a rendering of a Gibson Les Paul guitar. The photograph to the left is a 2 foot by 3 foot tack-board that I built of corks and wood. The wine corks were collected from a restaurant I used to work at in San Diego, California. The last small accent to this spread it the colorful strip directly below. It is part of a photograph that has been extruded from a thin row of pixels within it.

INDEPENENT STUDY


Background: In 2008 I was asked by Simeon Bruner, the co-founder of Bruner/Cott & Associates to assist him in a personal project. In 2007 his wife of many years passed away. As a tribute to her, he created an artistic stone maker to sit atop her grave stone that had special meaning to him. Since the grave had not yet been marked, the new grave stone he was proposing had to be approved by the Mount Auburn Cemetery. Due to its unconventionality, Simeon始s wishes were to present his work of art in a sensitive and favorable manner. My involvement: When Simeon approached me, he assumed correctly that I had an aptitude for manipulating photographs and images. Having never worked one-on-one with Simeon, this was my first chance to understand his methods of working and hopefully impress him with my abilities and appreciation for his vision. The singular image that he gave to me is a photograph of the stones found in the upper left of the opposite sheet. From this he asked me to simply place it on an inscribed granite grave marker and bring it to the foreground. From that point on the project progressed incrementally as new ideas and settings arose. Small elements were changed in Photoshop like the vanishing point, the lighting, the proportions, and so on. The final result shown on this page is the image Simeon ended up presenting with. This image showed a lush Mount Auburn background and the discrete placement of Lesley Gould始s grave marker. This unique process and gradation was one of my first chances in the work setting to understand the intentions of a curator and assisting them to reach their final goal.

INDEPENENT STUDY


photography | capturing light & space In this final spread, I wanted to show a collection of photographs that I have taken over the past 5 years that resonate with my passion for unique moments in space and time. I am interested in designing only as much as I am interested in what has been designed. My photographs aim to say much more about a setting始s visceral qualities than its physical properties. As the subtitle insinuates, architecture at its core, is an interplay of light and space.

For me writing is a design tool as much as design is a writing tool. This portfolio has been a personal exploration into understanding how best I comprehend and interpret the world around me. If nothing less, this work has memorialized for me my unwavering ambitions of the past few years. Thank you for reading. - Ryan Martin
