PRESIDENT’s LETTER

I

t has been 101 years since a small group of men formed the South Carolina Chapter of the American Institute of Architects (AIA). While so much has been accomplished in our first century of service to our state, the rapid pace of change has challenged us to keep up with the times. At the national level, the AIA is currently launching a “repositioning” effort, which will help guide our activities. They have identified three main priorities for this effort: 1. Elevating public awareness 2. Advocacy 3. Creating and expanding knowledge sharing Of these three, advocacy may be the most important for the South Carolina Chapter this year. These challenging economic times have brought more threats to our right to practice than ever before. Varied interests would like to eliminate the building code, make design professionals bid for work, and in an adjacent state, even abolish the professional practice of architecture altogether!

That’s right. In Georgia, in the name of deregulation, a bill was introduced to abolish the practice act. However, thanks to the advocacy of the AIA Georgia Chapter, the bill did not go through. If this legislation had passed, anyone in Georgia would be able to design a building! In North Carolina, the AIA was proactive in teaming with engineers to create an open designbuild law that provided for leadership by design professionals in public private partnerships.

These examples show how getting involved at the state level can really make a difference — so contribute to SCArchiPAC and participate in AIA South Carolina’s Legislative Day on January 21 in Columbia! Also, get in touch with your representatives—both local and in Washington, DC. The AIA needs to have an existing rapport with our elected officials when threats to our profession arise.

The difficult economy has shown signs of improving this year and we may be seeing the light at the end of a long five or six year tunnel. Now is the time we need to look ahead and determine where we would like the South Carolina AIA to go over the next 100 years.

The national AIA will guide us on the repositioning goals and inform members of national legislative issues that impact our profession. But it is up to us to build the South Carolina AIA into the powerful organization it can be. Get involved and help shape a positive future for architects across the state and on a national level as well.

Be sure to join us on April 24-26, 2014, for our annual convention and business meeting in Myrtle Beach. This year’s focus will be on how our talents as architects can be shared with the larger community of builders and the public. As always, it will be a great opportunity to complete your continuing education requirements and to meet with your colleagues in a relaxed atmosphere for networking and professional discussion. Mark your calendars now!

Advocating for the Profession…

Through Architecture

By Adrienne Montare, AIA

I

n his foreword to Good Deeds, Good Design: Community Service Through Architecture, Bryan Bell describes the important role architects play “as the form-givers for others, shaping lives in the most fundamental and personal ways.” Concerned that “the greater public – the 98% without access to architects – certainly does not understand what architects do,” Bell states that architects must define the services and benefits they provide because, as he points out, “it is the architect’s task, not the public’s, to present the reasons that design can help.” Or as the leaders of AIA’s Repositioning initiative have phrased it, architects must advocate for the value of design and our profession “through architecture.”

With this in mind, last year when

10

AIASC leadership meets with Congressman Mick Mulvaney at the Cottage.

the AIASC advocacy team faced several pieces of legislation that threatened our ability to properly and safely provide architectural services to the public, we revisited the way we traditionally approach how we oppose these types of bills.

Last year, when a group of South Carolina interior designers introduced House

Bill 3417 and Senate Bill 339, we formed a coalition with the National Kitchen and Bath Association and the Interior Design Protection Council to oppose what had become a full-blown practice act. These bills would have allowed interior designers to bypass hiring an architect on any commercial, institutional, retail or educa-

tional interiors project – regardless of size - and would have further allowed them to coordinate the work of other design professionals, both engineers and architects.

By seeking licensure and proposing to expand their expertise to include all “nonloadbearing interior construction,” interior designers were attempting to convince our legislators that they were capable of providing professional services that architects are uniquely qualified to provide.

We knew that the argument we had to make was not only that interior designers don’t have the qualifications to provide

Members of AIA Grand Strand meet with Congressman Tom Rice.

these expanded services, as they claimed, but that architects are the only design professionals who do. Framing our testimony by defining exactly what we do - through architecture - enabled us to make our case.

As a result, legislators – some for the first time - were able to fully understand and articulate why it was not in the state’s best interest to entrust and license interior designers in South Carolina to defend the health, safety and welfare of its citizens.

Though there may be other threatening legislation we’ll encounter in the next session (will the infamous “Stock School

Plans” bill come up again?), and we may face challenges introducing legislation that we support (design-build with qualifications-based selection and a bond bill for vertical construction), we have learned a valuable lesson. Our elected leaders and the general public may not always understand at first what we do or how it can significantly improve the quality of their lives. But that is our story to tell, and telling it clearly, with conviction, is the only way we’ll successfully advocate for ourselves, our profession and the public we serve … through architecture.

Change Order Repositioning the profession is a big job but we’ve got to do it.

By Robert Ivy, FAIA

A

rchitecture is the foundation of our everyday lives. It shapes our world in visible ways by defining the streetscape and the skyline. It influences our world in tangible ways by creating spaces where we may live, work, and play in relative safety and comfort. But I don’t need to tell you that. If you’re reading this and you’re an architect in South Carolina; you know that the work you’re doing every day impacts the people around you in positive ways.

If the AIA has one job, however, it’s to represent that positive impact on behalf of you, its members, to a broad audience— from legislators at the federal and state levels to clients (both current and potential) who live, work, and play in every community.

To that end, the AIA National Board of Directors approved an alignment statement this past September, crafted with

12

Kotter International, the consultants helping us to deploy strategies to renew the Institute’s commitment to its members: Together, we agree that the time is now to change the way we think and behave in order to shape our future. To become a more valued, relevant organization, the AIA will focus our priorities to elevate public awareness, advocate for the profession, and create and expand the sharing of knowledge and expertise to ensure a prosperous future for our members. Never before have we needed this level of bold, visionary leadership to inspire architects to work together and build a better world for all people—through architecture.

If the AIA is going to succeed in representing its members—as it has for the past 157 years—we’ve got to reaffirm our basic purpose and take a long and comprehen-

sive look at how we function as a member organization—exactly the aim of the Institute’s Repositioning initiative that you’ve all heard so much about.

And, we’re starting from the top down.

At the same September meeting, the Board voted to change the way the AIA is governed by moving the AIA toward a bicameral governance model. The decision creates a small Board of Directors, composed of 11-15 members, who are elected and/or chosen for specific roles and talents to pursue a defined, strategic set of fiduciary concerns that affect the health of the organization. The decision also creates a larger Council composed of 50 or so elected members, who represent geographic, demographic, and subject-matter diversity to pursue a larger set of broad, important, and critical issues concerning practice, the profession, and society.

“The AIA’s Repositioning initiative comes down to one group of people: our members, who are uniquely qualified to elevate the quality of our cities, towns, and neighborhoods. Architects connect clients with a vision of what’s possible. They connect all of us with buildings and spaces that inspire, keep us healthy, and ensure our safety.”

Repositioning Explained What is Repositioning, then? First, it’s a research and assessment effort that identified specific areas in the AIA that require a shift in its leadership structure, institutional framework, or operational focus. It also identified ways to improve, focus, and deepen the impact of what we communicate to our members and to the world at large.

The AIA’s Repositioning initiative comes down to one group of people: our members, who are uniquely qualified to elevate the quality of our cities, towns, and neighborhoods. Architects connect clients with a vision of what’s possible. They connect all of us with buildings and spaces that inspire, keep us healthy, and ensure our safety. Architects engage hundreds of people in the design process, ensuring that engineers, builders, and contractors work to the highest standards. Architects lead by being responsible and collaborative

advocates for their clients. Architects innovate to meet new and better approaches to technology, the environment, materials sourcing, and building science.

The AIA’s goal in “repositioning” itself and its members, then, is to draw those truths to the fore by elevating public awareness, advocating on behalf of the profession, and creating new and effective ways to expand knowledge-sharing so that architects can meet the challenges of this century.

In the first phase of Repositioning, from early 2012 to mid-2013, we worked closely with New York–based consultants LaPlaca Cohen, one of the most respected research and strategy think tanks in America, and Pentagram, the world’s largest independent design firm and one that places a premium on knowing its clients inside and out. Together, they analyzed the AIA’s earlier research initiatives, including Aligning the

Institute for the Millennium (AIM) in 1999, the AIA Brand Development Initiative in 2004, and the AIA Strategic Plan (the Weave) from 2007 to 2011. Importantly, they also assembled more than 31,000 points of data—which included interviews with members, component and chapter staff, organizations allied with the AIA, public stakeholders, and design industry professionals. They also undertook all of this as a way to craft a baseline understanding of where we’ve been, where we are now, and where we need to go.

And what did they conclude after the first phase of research? In short, LaPlaca Cohen and Pentagram observed that the AIA should tap into the passion and idealism that drives the profession, shift the conversation from process to impact by communicating architecture’s value, and lead with conviction by taking clear positions that members can follow.

forts. As their influence expands, so too will the tenets of Repositioning in a grassroots approach that will have a big impact in the coming decade and keep us grounded in what matters to members.

Beyond Repositioning

relevance, after all—one of the main goals for Repositioning—is a matter of demonstrating impact. To that end, LaPlaca Cohen and Pentagram concluded that the AIA needs to prioritize its programs, initiatives, and resources to support what they called our “sweet spot”—the intersection of collaboration, passion, and problem-solving.

Finally, the AIA should be a progressive (not reactionary) organization; universally beneficial, not limited and elitist; public facing rather than behind the scenes; and results-focused, rather than process-driven or self-referential.

The second phase of Repositioning began in mid-2013 with Kotter International, a highly respected change-management firm that specializes in understanding an organization or company’s needs and guiding them towards a positive transformation. Kotter is the best in the business. More than 70 percent of organizations attempting real change fail at implementation, which is where the rubber meets the road. We are determined to

see Repositioning through with Kotter’s expertise in generating broad-based support and willingness among a set of diverse constituents.

The firm’s tailored approach to change management addresses the Institute’s collective knowledge base and status as a bellwether and beacon for the profession.

Like the architecture profession, the AIA has undergone radical transformation in recent years. And, like architecture, the AIA is at a critical juncture—perhaps the most significant in its history.

Kotter has assembled what we’re calling an “advancement team,” comprised of AIA National staff, Repositioning Ambassadors, AIA Component executives and staff, and general members, who will be the frontlines of change. The advancement team is charged with helping accelerate action to realize this transformation of our AIA and profession. They will be help us define and implement a range of approaches to create a new level of engagement across the Institute and align a large number of our passionate colleagues to help drive these ef-

Being grounded also means caring about the health of our individual communities, and the next 100 years of the AIA must be about putting architects at the center of public health and wellness. Outside of addressing the Institute’s operations and renewing our commitment to members, Repositioning is about strategic partnerships that will have a global impact. Our work with the Clinton Global Initiative, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), and others is just beginning, but we intend to gain a lot of ground in the areas of research with repositioning driving positive change.

After all, more than half of global population lives in urban areas, a number projected to grow to 70 percent by 2050.

Public health and the built environment are inextricably linked, which is the basis of our 10-year Clinton Global Initiative commitment, for which we’ve created the Decade of Design that lays systematic groundwork for the next 90 years of the century. The Decade of Design pledge will document, envision, and implement solutions related to the design of the urban built environment in the interest of public health and effective use of natural, economic, and human resources.

the first phase of fulfilling that pledge, in 2012, the AIA funded research projects at three universities: Texas A&M University’s research initiative Evaluating Health Benefits of Livable Communities, which will result in a toolkit for measuring the health impacts of walkable communities; the University of Arkansas’ Fayetteville 2030: Creating a Citywide Food Scenario Plan; and the University of New Mexico, which will establish an interdisciplinary health-architecture curriculum.

Another part of that pledge is the work we’ve begun this past year with the Center for Advanced Urbanism at MIT, whose students and faculty will identify how institutional research and scholarship into health and urbanism can drive the future shape of our cities. The project, Decade of Design: Health + Urbanism, aims to incorporate broadly interdisciplinary perspectives and seek real-world solutions through research, prototypes, and demonstration projects.

The goal is to transform cities through concerted participatory action, using design as the nexus, to support human, economic, and environmental health improvements.

The key word for our current century is resilience, or the ability of communities and cities to remain productive, sustainable, and adaptable. In order to support resilient communities, we must create action plans that help architects deliver their building-science knowhow to two highly collaborative marketplaces: energy and infrastructure.

Resilience also means facing the challenges of natural or manmade disasters.

But I don’t have to tell you that. The Charleston earthquake in 1886 wiped out many parts of the city, and much of what has been preserved and restored today was built after that event. Then came Hurricane Hugo in 1989, which forever changed the requirements for buildings, windows, roofing, and seismic retrofits throughout the Southeast and particularly in Charleston. And, in light of the city’s commitment to stewardship, these changes had to have been skillfully applied to structures that were never intended to adopt them.

Enter the architects of South Carolina, who led the state’s transformation from a vulnerable landscape to one that defines

strength and resiliency.

To thrive, then—be it in South Carolina or Southern California, in the Gulf Region or the Rust Belt—we must do more than endure. We must mitigate the disasters, both natural and human-created, that threaten to undermine our architectural fabric and our community bonds. And we are more capable now than ever before to acknowledge and work with—not against—the power of nature.

We are architects, but we inhabit a world

that is different today than when the AIA began in 1857. With some strategic planning and a lot of sweat equity and skill, we can lay the foundation for a better world tomorrow. That’s the value of an architect.

And that’s what Repositioning will make certain in everyone’s mind. Repositioning is something we need to do, collectively, for the entire body of architecture. Repositioning is for the profession.

The Adaptive Reuse/Renovation Award Category is for built projects which include rehabilitation or adaptive reuse. This award will recognize the best renovation or addition to a structure that is not intended to be a faithful historic restoration. Eligible projects must begin with a pre-existing building, structure, object or site that incorporates an intervention that is clearly intended to compliment or contrast with the original subject building. It is not necessary that the project be within South Carolina. The submitted project should include either a renovation within an existing building or a new construction that expands the existing structure or site. This year’s awards jury was chaired by Ruth Todd.

The Medal of Distinction is the highest honor that AIASC can bestow upon an AIASC member. It is conferred by the AIA South Carolina Board of Directors in recognition of a significant body of work and/or service that has had a lasting influence on the practice of architecture in South Carolina. Recipients of the Medal of Distinction have demonstrated the spirit of strategic cooperation through their teamwork and partnership in the design and building process.

PURPOSE: AIASC has a long tradition of recognizing individuals, organizations, and projects for exemplifying the very best in architecture. The AIA believes that awards programs should be carefully structured so that selection and recognition of honorees serve two distinct purposes: one directed to the profession, and the other, to the public. By focusing attention on activity within the profession, the general quality of architectural practice is elevated. By informing the public on the breadth and value of architectural practice, the entire profession is held in higher esteem. AIASC achieves this purpose by establishing and sponsoring the awards. aiasc.org

T

his project encompasses 22 infill lots in the Northwest Quadrant neighborhood of downtown Beaufort, South Carolina. The mostly single-family development is nearly complete, with four lots remaining. Traditional style homes are between 1300 and 2200 square feet and include detached garages and front porches. New streetscaping, in partnership with the City of Beaufort, includes underground utilities, on-street parking, street trees, sidewalks, and tabby garden walls. The project is located just a few blocks from the Beaufort River.

Although the site is within a National Historic District, it has lacked any government incentives to redevelop. The historic site belonged to a building contractor since the late 1930’s who used it as a shop and storage area for building supplies. Over time, the site became blighted.

When the company relocated in 2004, the property was sold to the project developer.

The architects and planners master planned a high density mixed-use development for the site. When the market crashed the site was redesigned as single-family infill. In addition, master planning and vi-

his library is a vibrant 21st century gathering place. Yet the simple forms defer to its culturally rich setting.

Before design began, community workshops probed the depths of Gullah-Geechee and Sea Island culture, so the building could make subtle and sincere references to a unique people and place. Like the Islands, the building reveals itself slowly.

The pavilion structure reminds of the live oaks that once sheltered schoolchildren. The woven nautilus of the special collections area is the heart of the library and suggests the forms of marine life and traditional net making.

The branch will serve the rural northern portion of Beaufort County, principally St. Helena Island, and is contiguous to the National Historic Landmark campus of Penn Center. The architecture of the building is modern, yet warm, and reflects the unique attributes of Gullah-Geechee and Sea Island culture and the vibrancy of the library as a 21st Century gathering place.

Prior to starting design, many community workshops were held over a period of several weeks at Penn Center to gain insight to the unique context of the Gullah Geechee culture, and the programming needs of the community. In response, the building was designed to utilize very simple forms and construction methods in order to afford the iconic features that symbolize the shared values of the library and St. Helena community. The simplicity of the plan in the organization of program functions is im-

mediately visible in the manner that the “support bars” housing operations and administration embrace the main reading and collections room. Meeting/conference rooms are immediately available off the main entry, allowing use of these spaces in the evening independent of library operation.

ocated in the heart of the research campus, the building is designed for maximum flexibility to accommodate start-up companies performing applied research. The building design anticipates frequent changes in users of both the office space and the lab space. The office areas feature raised accessible flooring to accommodate quick changes in the HVAC, power distribution and data infrastructure.

The lab areas feature open high-bay space with grade-level access and a full range of utility systems. The structural frame maximizes open space with minimal conflicts for column bays.

The orientation of the site allows the building to take advantage of shaded day-lighting on the north, east and south, while protecting the hot western exposure with solid walls. The high-bay research space resides on the west side of the building, providing an insulating buffer.

t went y

Following the principles of the Master Plan, the architecture expresses the technology focus of the research campus. The exterior of the building seeks to complement the context through its understated geometries and material expression of metal, glass and concrete. The intentional understatement acts as a foil to the highly expressive geometry of the ‘signature building’ that resides diagonally across the street. The east face of the building,

with its projecting sunscreen and balconies, allows the building to open up and reach out to the ‘main street’ of the campus, where pedestrian activity sets the stage for the informal collaboration that marks the life of this research campus.

The shifting planes of the building’s exterior reflect the ever-changing nature of the activities within the building.

The project is targeting LEED-CS Silver certification.

Converse College Senior Student Housing

T

he building engages in a dialogue with the historic college campus. From the overall site development to the material details, the project looks back at the heritage of the campus, while at the same time moving toward the future vision of the current campus leadership.

The original program called for a group of small four-plex apartment ‘houses’ to be located on a remote corner of the campus. The basic concept was to provide a new lifestyle option for the senior class, becoming a smooth transition from the supervised life of the old dormitories to the independent life after graduation. However, the program was not fully addressing the desire of senior students to have the best of both worlds during their last year on campus: to enjoy a more independent living arrangement while still connecting with the active community life of the larger campus.

The design solution addresses the full range of programmatic objectives by finding a new site and cre-

t went y

ating a new arrangement of apartments.

The new site brings the student housing into a close relationship with the existing campus, creating new courtyards between existing buildings while tying into historic pedestrian axes that connect to a number of significant places. The site configuration allows the new student housing to be fully integrated with the campus life while still defining a sense of place that expresses its independence from the rest of the overall campus.

The layout of the two apartment buildings produces an inner courtyard that becomes the village green for the students.

A bosque of plaza trees completes the enclosure of the courtyard, serving as a soft threshold between the campus and the village green.

The two buildings contain three floors of apartments. Each apartment has some unique aspect that makes it different from nearly all of the others, thereby addressing a desire of the students to have a place to call their own. The apartments around the perimeter of the complex are fourbedroom flats, while the apartments that face into the courtyard are two-story lofts.

The building complex is conceived as an outer layer of brick construction that envelopes an inner core of wood-clad and metal-panel construction. By emphasiz-

ing a strong contrast in materiality of the building parts, the perimeter wall of the building takes on a quality of solidity that encases the lighter, more open, core.

Through this contrast in material and color from the ‘outside’ to the ‘inside’ of the complex, the courtyard has the sense of being an internal space of the complex. When walking from the outer campus into the courtyard, it seems as if the solid brick exterior has been peeled away to reveal a different world on the inside.

The solid perimeter creates a protective wrapping that conveys a sense of security to the active community life of the inner courtyard.

The project references the campus palette of materials and colors, presenting them in a contemporary way to create the Senior Student identity of the next generation. The primary masonry features a tumbled variegated red brick that complements neighboring buildings along with buff brick string courses that echo cast stone details on older buildings. Used with careful understatement, the buff brick string courses create a subtle play across the face of the building. The base of the building is rusticated with shadow lines from recessed string courses, while the upper gable end walls transition to flush string courses that provide a more

14

delicate lightness to the building masses.

The Student Housing project received LEED Certification. Key sustainable principles incorporated into the project include site selection, energy performance, water use reduction, material selection and promotion of a sustainable lifestyle.

esigned for a population of 1050 students in a rapidly growing area, this school extends beyond traditional “factory school” conventions to create a true 21st century learning environment. Its design provides flexibility to accommodate a myriad of learning styles; promotes strong synergies between students, staff, and curriculum; and establishes a built context which enhances student performance and well-being. A focus on collaboration and community drives many of the plan relationships. The building parti locates three academic houses and community space off a central circulation loop – resulting in a compact plan for the amount of square footage. The use of academic houses which can be programmed a number of ways – by grade, subject, or project team – allows development of smaller communities within the whole. Community spaces are clustered to allow after-hours access while maintaining secure visitor checkpoints and clear sightlines of major circulation. The plan

Building Commissioning KLG Jones also includes a secure interior courtyard, used as an outdoor classroom and social gathering space.

The academic houses depart from the traditional double-loaded corridor, “cells and bells� classroom arrangement, skewing one side to create light-filled central collaboration spaces. Good design practices for acoustics and air quality are also observed in classrooms and collaboration areas to ease communication and minimize distracting or irritating contaminants.

Each academic house includes flexible classrooms which open up to the central collaboration spaces via folding glass walls.

Small group rooms at each level add curricular flexibility for use in team activities, special projects or meetings. Courtyards located between the academic houses hold potential for use as outdoor classrooms, and the generous amount of undisturbed open space on the 17 acre site provides options for extending the learning environments on campus.

his community center is a 24,000sf multi-use recreational facility adjacent to an existing, public swimming pool complex and various outdoor playfields. In addition to housing indoor recreation spaces, the building acts a central “hub” accommodating various neighborhood and communitywide activities such as summer camps, educational programs, and recreational tournaments. A kitchen/ concessions area within the center is shared with the pool. Solar hot water panels serving the pool are located on the roof of the building.

The design of the building responds to its contextual setting by developing a strong central axis with the existing pool structure. This is established by the entry sequence into the building. The strong emphasis of this axis begins with the raised entrance platform, translucent fabric screens bounding the entrance porch and the fully glazed entrance lobby tucked into the masonry building’s corner. The lobby

spine, has clerestory windows used in conjunction with a roof overhang lining its perimeter, which allows daylight in while protecting the glass against heat gain.

Overall, the design of the building, informed by an axial relationship with the existing pool structure, reflects a play between mass and different layers of lightness. The language of this interaction is achieved by the juxtapositions of massive brick volumes that are in turn punctuated with expanses of storefront glass, linear runs of translucent panels, and the insertion of the steel frame and fabric panel entry.

also serves as the transition into the gallery. The gallery, which is on axis with the pool and pool building, is lit from above through translucent panels and stretches the length of the recreational facility. The focal point of the view from within the gallery is toward the pool and pool building, whose wall beyond is emphasized with a strong, primary accent color.

This procession of spaces, enclosed and open, establishes a visual and aesthetic

relationship between the two buildings.

The floor plan is organized starting from this gallery axis with two interior zones of smaller, mostly service spaces through which there is access to the primary spaces.

Larger, recreational use spaces are located north and south of the gallery spine. A multipurpose room and fitness room, both north of the gallery, have large storefront glass along the north elevation to allow natural daylight into these spaces. The gymnasium space, south of the gallery

nautilus of the special collections area located at the heart of the library, suggesting the forms of marine life and traditional net making; raised wood “stomping” floor in the community meeting room that provides the percussion for sea island spirituals; the “tree” columns reflective of historic images of learning at Penn Center under the massive live oak trees; the use of natural materials representing the colors and textures of the island; a large storytelling porch for gatherings and performances; and, the way the building sits within the landscape and opens views to the outdoors.

The project is bringing to life a portion of the island landscape that has been fallow for decades, and creating a new hub for the community. Care has been taken in the siting, massing, materials, and systems to respect the rural context and natural landscape. While most visitors travel by car, there is a great history of “pathway” on the island. Many pedestrian and bike connections were created to the Penn Center campus and adjacent community health services buildings. It is hoped that over time even more natural pathways will be worn to the library. Views to the outdoors from all occupied spaces of the building contribute to the well-being of users and the connection to the surrounding landscape.

Careful use of resources through simple building forms, flexible open space layouts, and traditional local building materials such as stucco lend a graceful feeling of restraint to the architecture that also contributes to the goals of sustainability.

Roof areas and hardscape are designed to minimize heat island effect.

An issue that is critical to our region is the handling of stormwater and runoff, given the great and frequent rain events.

The site incorporates large “rain gardens” for filtration, pervious paving, and extensive native vegetation. The native vegetation avoids the use of irrigation throughout the site.

For any Owner, operations and maintenance are primary concerns. Efforts

were made to achieve maximum efficiency through building orientation, extensive daylighting, efficient light fixtures, controls and automation systems, and efficient mechanical units. Registered for certification within the LEED 2009 rating system, the project also incorporated waste management, recycled and regional content, rapidly renewable materials, low-emitting materials, and indoor air quality control.

The library is conditioned through the use of chilled water and electric heat. Fan coil units (FCU) provide conditioning at the zone level. Temperature neutral and dehumidified ventilation air is provided to all spaces by two 100% outdoor air ventilation air units (VAU). Pre-heat in the form of an electric duct heater is provided for the VAU’s to prevent coils from freezing during winter months. VAU-01 utilizes a wrap around heat pipe system for energy recovery and preconditioning of outside air.

All the buildings systems are controllable via the building’s Central Control Monitoring System (CCMS). This includes temperature, humidity, and CO2 monitoring. Additionally, night setback for unoccupied hours is controlled through the CCMS and is adjustable.

Local temperature controls are provided for units which serve the administration offices, conference rooms and work areas and are adjustable by library personnel.

The lighting system is designed to help maximize energy performance. Energy efficient lighting systems and automatic controls such as occupancy sensors and daylight response controls are provided for the building. Lighting controls enable 90% of the building occupants to control the lighting in regularly occupied areas.

The building is provided with nonemergency lighting controls that automatically reduce the interior lighting by at least 50% during after-hours periods between 11 p.m. and 5 a.m. The exterior lighting is designed such that measured night illumination levels are consistent with the criteria for Outdoor Lighting Zone LZ-2 – Low.

ocated adjacent to the Cistern Yard at the heart of the historic College of Charleston campus, Craig Hall immediately reconciles the school’s rich past to the promising futures of the prospective students who visit daily. This cafeteria, cum Office of Admissions, is a recruitment tool unto itself, providing a narrative through which students realize the current vision of the College in light of its history. Tech savvy displays are juxtaposed with the antebellum context via direct and intentional vistas, while a contemporary take on traditional materials is at once reverential and progressive; indicative of the binary through which the College itself progresses.

The Office of Admissions is housed in a complete first-floor renovation of the former Craig Cafeteria—with Craig Residence Halls occupying the second and third floors above—in a conglomerate building made of additions dating from 1961, 1976, 1977, 1987, and 1991. The resulting myriad of structure was maintained in this LEED: Commercial Interiors renovation, while the HVAC, electrical, plumbing, space layout and finishes were all replaced.

his four bedroom house celebrates the beauty of the Lowcountry by inviting the outdoors in. Every space of the house is visually connected to the marsh and palmetto trees that surround it. The open floor plan extends to a screened living area, separated by biparting sliding doors. The foyer acts as an enclosed porch, separating the master suite from the more public spaces of the house. Tree House is a part of nature.

Tree House is a successful response to the challenging parameters of the site. The owners and the architect decided to save every oak tree on the site and create a space enveloped with its surrounding environment.

By creating a one story structure, the house exists below the tree canopy and visually blends with its surroundings. Colors were chosen specifically from flora on the site.

his new construction project is a modest 2,000 square foot residence located in the North Carolina Mountains. The simple program includes four bedrooms, three baths and an open kitchen/dining/living area, organized on two levels, within a tightly defined geometry of squares and golden sections in both plan and section.

The design strategy for this project was to overlay a highly ordered and open structure on an unaltered natural setting, and, through contrast, to accentuate the intimate relationship between dwelling and site, between dwellers and nature.

Through efficient organization and spatial sequencing the architects were

able to reduce the overall building footprint such that the entire structure could be placed on the only existing level portion of the site, thus eliminating rough grading and potential erosion. Two primary planes, a demising wall and a shed roof were deployed, in plan and section respectively, to organize the design, to clarify spatial and public/private hierarchy internally, to articulate massing and to establish the building’s relationship to the site.

Building upon the vernacular im-

agery suggested by the shed roof and simple massing, the exterior envelope was clad with dark-stained siding and trim. Interior finishes were limited to natural wood, two paint colors and an additional contrast color for the demising wall. In the visual and aural calm of a dwelling absent of TV, stereo or computers, expansive use of glass, operable windows and interior louvers allow dramatic mountain views and the faint rustle of mountain breezes to flow continuously, uninterrupted throughout.

his project was a collaboration between contractor and architect to design and build an affordable single-family dwelling in the Columbia, SC market that offered a contemporary design alternative.

The project site is located in an established Columbia neighborhood (Eau Claire) situated a few miles north of Columbia’s city center. The property is a block away from the Columbia College campus and the neighborhood is currently experiencing a residential and commercial rebirth. Demographics for this area of town are varied, as are the architectural types, sizes and costs of homes available. This cultural and

1519 Cleveland architectural diversity within the surrounding community afforded a realistic opportunity to explore a modern vernacular within the context of a more traditional greater urban context.

The 1,120 SF single-family dwelling includes 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths with an open living/dining/kitchen space. At the entry porch, a green screen/ trellis structure provides privacy from close neighbors. Design features include IKEA kitchen cabinets, stained concrete floors and a stack washer/dryer. Sliding glass doors open to the large back patio creating an extension of the open living space.

Material selections were made by balancing initial cost with long-term maintenance requirements. Sustainable features include spray-foam insulation, recycled low VOC paint, and a pervious driveway. Wood and metal are used to create architectural accents on the interior, while fiber cement board siding creates a clean, durable skin on the exterior.

The first challenge in this project was to stabilize the building structurally. Developed with a structural engineer, a system of steel channels and threaded rods that, with the aid of Hilti anchors, “stitched” the walls to the new steel frame. Re-opening the bricked-in windows on the second floor south side, restoring the wood windows on the King Street façade, and restoring the glass tile transoms at the storefront were included in the initial preservation work. The nonhistoric brick/granite pilasters and aluminum storefront were removed to ac-

commodate a simple yet distinct glass system that provides a King Street entrance for both the first and second floor properties.

The basic elements of the existing building served as catalysts for the adaptive re-use. The open first floor with the expanse of glass storefront inspired the visually and physically communal plan of the first floor public house. The walled remains of the residence on the second floor were retained to create several intimate spaces for the speakeasy on the second floor.

ocated at the outskirts of a struggling downtown, this neglected warehouse purchased by a local transit authority was considered a neighborhood eyesore. Underutilized as a self-storage facility, the building was a maze of dim makeshift corridors. Windows and doors had been replaced with plywood, wood floors were rotted, and interior plaster was falling from the walls. The architects’ first challenge was to uncover the century old open industrial warehouse building and then to determine what could still be used.

While the self-storage units were being removed, research at the county museum revealed that the building had a remarkable, unlikely history as an early twentieth century telephone factory, producing and shipping telephones internationally. As a result of this discovery, the architects and the Owner contacted the South Carolina Department of Archives and History. A strategy was developed for rehabilitating the building’s heavy masonry shell and original timber structure, the only original elements still largely intact, while accommodating contemporary program requirements in clearly contemporary ways.

Thus, per the Owner’s request, the possibility of seeking National Register status remained viable, should the decision be made to do so in the future.

t went y

Utilizing the museum’s archival photos, the architects were able to provide wood windows and doors, downspouts, and continuous clerestory windows that were compatible with the original design. An exposed interior steel frame and tension rod system was then designed to seismically reinforce existing masonry walls, wood structure and trusses that were left in place.

Original salvaged wood flooring was remilled and reinstalled in public areas.

In addition to the main building, a small masonry “Pavilion” in the center of the

site and an individual freestanding wall at the edge of the site were preserved to provide a sense of the original factory campus as evident in the archives.

In contrast to the historic structures, elements associated with the building’s new function were designed to work in counterpoint to existing elements. A new metal panel entry was designed to reorient the building to the site’s interior, replacing recently installed corrugated metal siding. A two-story interior precast concrete wall was introduced to tie the original “front door”

14

to the new entry and to modulate between circulation and lobby. Between the entry lobby and the board room, a wood paneled partition was designed as a monumental door, opening the spaces into each other for large public events. Interior storefront was utilized at office space to optimize natural light, and continuous clerestory glass was introduced between offices to maintain a sense of openness. Wherever possible, original masonry was left untouched and original wood was finished with transparent stain. New materials were painted with a palette to both complement and contrast with original materials.

Charleston City Market Rehabilitation

S

haped by fires, hurricanes, tornados and an earthquake, the sheds comprising the Charleston City Market had not ever experienced a rehabilitation that affected each element and surface. Starting in 2009 and completed in two phases, the three open sheds of the market, and enclosed shed behind Meeting Street’s Market Hall, were given a facelift, inside and out. The work has increased foot traffic by both locals and visitors, improved circulation in and around each building and re-established the City Market’s presence in Charleston as well as solidifying its role as a National Historic Landmark.

The City Market stands on the site of a filled-in creek and marshy lands donated to the city in 1788 by the Pinckney family. The family stipulated that the property revert to them if used for any purpose other than a city market. The first wooden market stalls were built between 1804 and 1807, when a city ordinance was adopted for regulating the “Central Market” here. Over time, the market declined in popularity until it was best known as a flea market in an unappealing part of town. In 1972, a restoration was undertaken to improve the market, but it was not until this rehabilitation in 2009 that a comprehensive preservation plan was executed.

Phase one of the project began in January of 2010 and was completed in May. The work included

with individual vendor booths, all within a newly conditioned great hall. Daylight streams in from a new ridge skylight that runs the length of the space. Similar to the open sheds, new points of entry facilitate pedestrian traffic, and new lights and fans were installed. An elevation change between Meeting and Church Streets of nearly three feet is managed by a gradual slope in the conditioned space, and a series of accessible exterior ramps at the east end of the shed. The ramps down to Church Street create a seamless transition to Shed A and the rest of the market. the rehabilitation of the three open sheds-A, B & C--between Church and East Bay Streets. The removal of parking and introduction of a pedestrian way adjacent to each shed drastically improves circulation and promotes display and sales to the exterior. Cross aisles were constructed to facilitate better access through the sheds, and the center row of vendors was removed to re-establish a central path and aid the flow of foot traffic.

Research of the Market turned up historic photos illustrating interior shops and wood counters that existed between the bays of each shed. These counters were reconstructed in all three open sheds. In sheds A and C, the historic images also informed the design of interior conditioned

shops. Old and unattractive light fixtures, rain and wind screens and signage were replaced, and new ceiling fans were installed. Public restrooms were added to Shed C. The brick piers were repointed in all sheds, and the tile roofs were repaired or areas of tile replaced as necessary. New custom murals were painted in the east and west gable ends of shed B--depicting a sea captain and sea grass basket weaver.

In November of 2010, construction began on phase two. All work was concentrated on Market Hall shed, which is an (18,000) square foot structure previously comprised of individual enclosed shops connected by a meandering path. The dark, individually accessed stores added in the 1970s were eliminated and replaced

hile once serving as a thriving department store in Columbia, Efird’s Department Store, being one of the most prolific and largest department stores in country, played a critical role in the life of Columbia and Midlands residents. Efird’s provided a major cultural impact to the residents offering a variety of items including silks, dress goods, dry goods, piece goods, shoes, men’s and boy’s clothing, and men’s furnishings, women’s ready-to-wear clothing, muslin underwear and corsets.

The project began with assessing the building’s ability to qualify for the National Park Service’s Historic Tax Credits based on its integrity as well as the historical cultural impact Efird’s had on the area.

Through extensive research, it was determined that the project could in-fact qualify. Although this building had been modified several times over the course of its history dramatically impacting the historical character of the building, renovating it back to the period of historical significance was attainable.

Programmatically, the owners wished to develop the first floor and basement into new retail space mimicking that of and old general store. The upper two floors were to be developed into modern, modest

Two of the many challenges for this project were creating the new pressed copper clad canopy and wood storefront that are the main focal point for the building. Both architectural features extend across the entire front faรงade of the building and down a portion of the side faรงade. Through studying historical photos and case studies of similar elements, the original canopy was re-created along with the storefront and associated clearstory to provide a new historically sensitive faรงade that allows the public to understand the history and significance of this structure. Careful design attention was paid throughout the interior of the building to clearly depict the historic portions of the building as well as new installations.

his project is an adaptive reuse of an existing 1939 two-storey office building which had been unoccupied for several years. In a state of neglect and significantly subdivided, with windows bricked up, many layers of ceilings added over the years and mold present, this modernist structure was vulnerable to demolition. The building was purchased and renovated in 2006 by architects for their own use.

In addition to responding to a need for office space, it was the architects’ intent to save this early modern building as an example of the “next wave” of structures worthy of consideration for local landmark status. The architects also decided to design the project for LEED certification, recycling existing resources and introducing rapidly renewable resources. Simple materials and details were utilized in response to the straightforward tectonic of the original structure. Built-in systems were held away as much as possible from the existing shell, in order to further accent the contrast between old and new. A minimalist esthetic was employed as a way to bring natural light into the space and bring clarity to the design.

In order to maximize an open plan and introduction of daylight, a central stair was introduced, organizing circulation and creating a strong link between first and second floor functions.

Workstations were aligned with the structural grid, with shelving and cabinets held away from the existing shell.

Translucent glass panel dividers were integrated into the bookcases to maxi-

Watson Tate Savory Offices mize the flow of natural light through the space. Where acoustical isolation is necessary, broad expanses of interior storefront are used to maximize visual openness. The building façade is left entirely intact with the exception of new entry sconces, a glass “visor” announcing the entry and new thermal, operable windows.

The hope – and design intent of this project – is to provide a minimalist, contemporary design, in dialogue with the existing early modern facade, which serves as an example of sustainability and encourages consideration of local modernist structures for landmark status.

In addition to the preservation effort and exhibits, the program included sensitive design considerations at the entry to address ADA access. Employing building materials already present in the streetscape (brick pavers), and incorporating playful colors for risers and edge trim (red to play off the color scheme), the new ramp folds up toward the existing door, maintaining the visual perspective of the sidewalk.

A special handrail at child’s height was included as acknowledgement of the building’s most important visitors.

Column capitals were restored and

a rich interior color scheme reminiscent of the building as a bank was reincorporated. The original vault was retained, cleaned and re-programmed to serve as a “dress-up” room for the children.

he two circa 1860 structures located on the College of Charleston campus are considered “sister” properties due to their proximity and shared function as English faculty offices. But these single houses were moved from their original locations by the College in the 1970’s; when modifications to each structure including removal of each historic el and rear piazza wrap occurred to accommodate the new context. Both buildings have been modified over the years to accommodate office use, and many of the repairs and alterations have compromised or eliminated historic fabric such as roofing, piazzas, interior trim, and finishes. Our challenge in this project was to restore the historic fabric remaining, stabilize the buildings structurally, implement technology

modifications to accommodate faculty, and make changes to the structures to meet current building and energy code while meeting state budget limits.

Securing preservation-trained craftsmen in a design/bid/build process is always a challenge; especially when state funding for a project restricts the award of the contract to the low bidder. Having completed other restoration projects on campus in which the low bidder was not properly trained to do the work, we developed a set of drawings and specifications that were descriptive in the processes of restoration and could be used as guidelines for selection, training, and quality control of subcontractors. Site meetings became a collaborative effort in which sample work was reviewed for quality and craftsmanship.

Lowman Hall Rehabilitation

P

rominently located at the campus entry, this former men’s dormitory is one of the first buildings designed by South Carolina’s first African American registered architect, who would also go on to become college president, serving for 17 years until 1949. In 1985 the dormitory was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. However, within 10 years it was closed and virtually abandoned, during which time burst steam pipes and roof leaks caused severe damage. The wooden structure twisted and warped, wood flooring and wainscoting rotted, plaster ceilings fell and masonry veneer buckled. Exterior architectural features deteriorated with time, as well, and were removed and discarded.

By 2004, when the decision was made to repurpose the building, the path forward was not clear. Because of existing building conditions and perceptions of conflict between existing configurations and new program requirements, there was significant pressure to demolish everything except the building’s masonry shell. Working with university representatives, however, the architects were able to gradually develop a strategy for Rehabilitation.

At the outset, the architects worked with university administration to simplify a program of administrative offices, suites and conference rooms. Test fits confirmed that the majority of the original design could accommodate the new use. Layouts were developed and approved that left most spaces and all

t went y

corridors fully intact. A new steel endoskeleton, addressing water damage and contemporary seismic requirements, was designed to be dropped in through the roof, threading vertically and horizontally through existing partitions and above ceilings, for minimal architectural impact.

With programmatic and structural challenges resolved, additional archival photos were discovered that not only documented the original design but reinforced the cultural importance of the building to the university. The decision was then made to Rehabilitate the building in accordance with the Secretary of the Interior’s Guidelines, and additional funding was secured from the National Park Service to do so.

Interior transom panels with louvers, originally designed for ventilation, were restored. Glass panels were then placed behind them to preserve the original appearance and allow natural light into the corridors, while providing necessary acoustic privacy.

Original interior doors and frames were restored. Where low quality hollow metal doors had been retrofitted, new doors were fabricated to match the original design.

Original windows were removed, restored and reinstalled, throughout; interior “storm windows” were introduced, within the sash, to provide thermal efficiency and preserve the original appearance.

Layers of retrofitted flooring were removed to reveal original hardwood floors, which were restored throughout or replaced in-kind where rotted. Layers of

paint were chemically removed from beaded board wainscots to reveal original stain, which was then restored. Where beaded board had been removed or destroyed, the decision was made, as with the interior doors, to match the original beaded board.

Because plaster ceilings were severely damaged at corridors, loose plaster was removed along with exposed retrofitted sprinkler piping and electrical conduit.

New fire protection and electrical infrastructure was reinstalled tight against the existing plaster and a new gypsum board ceiling was installed, with period “schoolhouse” pendant fixtures. Because there were several original early layers of paint colors uncovered, existing plaster walls were restored and painted a neutral beige. Restrooms were expanded in the original restroom/shower locations and brought to current code. Original stairs, handrails and guardrails were left in place with extensions added at guardrails for code compliance.

Exterior porches at the south and north had largely disappeared. Remaining parts of several column capitals were combined and assembled into one complete column capital, to create a mold to replicate the remaining seven. One original column also remained which was used to replicate the others.

Trim and balustrades, long gone, were recreated based upon archival photographs. An unsightly handicap ramp was removed from the main entry portico and a new one was placed at the less promi-

14

nent south entry. Reinforcing rods were set into mortar joints to stabilize exterior masonry where buckling had occurred due to structural damage. Rotted rafters were mostly replaced and new campusstandard terra cotta profile roofing, previously approved for other National Register structures on campus, was installed to match the profile of the original roof.

Every effort was made by the owner, architects and contractor to honor the original intent of this straightforward design without embellishment or gratuitous interpretation. The result is a building that once again has become a point of pride for the university and stands as testimony to the vision of a remarkable campus leader.

his LEED Certified project provides on-campus apartment-style housing for the senior students of a women’s college. The vision for the project focuses on creating a vibrant, intimate community for student life. The project features three apartment layouts, each accommodating four students. The two-building complex envelopes a landscaped courtyard or ‘common green,’ that opens up to the broader campus. This central courtyard is activated by a number of extroverted student spaces, including a three-story covered porch, projected balconies from apartment units, a multi-purpose pavilion and group study areas that integrate living and learning into the senior experience.

his project is the first building completed by a major university, in its newly designated research district. Located directly across from the anti-bellum campus, it serves as a gateway between the city and the university, facing each in opposite directions. As such, the north and east street facades abstractly recall the language

and rhythms of the campus architecture, while the south and west courtyard facades more closely reflect the scientific research within.

Eventually, this building will form one side of a science courtyard, facing it and a future building with a broad expanse of glass, revealing research activity inside and animating the space outside.

ocated at Main and Taylor Streets, this historic building occupies a prominent corner within Columbia’s downtown. Over the past century the building had undergone numerous transformations that destroyed the character of this historic landmark while the interior of the building had fallen into disrepair. The non-contributing

historical elements including the entire storefront, canvas awning, windows and brick infill were removed. The new design not only restored the building but also provided detailing required to qualify for the National Registry of Historical Places. The 42,000 square foot project is a major catalyst for the Main Street revitalization endeavor.

Lynn G. Craig, FAIA, RIBA

The Medal of Distinction is the highest honor that AIASC can bestow upon an AIASC member. It is conferred by the AIA South Carolina Board of Directors in recognition of a significant body of work and/or service that has had a lasting influence on the practice of architecture in South Carolina. Recipients of the Medal of Distinction have demonstrated the spirit of strategic cooperation through their teamwork and partnership in the design and building process.

AIA South Carolina Architecture

By John Jacques, AIA and Ed Zeigler, AIA

A

s past recipients of this most prestigious recognition we were pleased to present Lynn G. Craig, FAIA, RIBA, to the AIASC Board of Directors for the 2013 Medal of Distinction.

Imagine our delight when we learned that he had, indeed, been selected. Here is the nomination letter which, we believe, conveys Lynn’s extraordinary contribution to the profession.

Lynn embodies the attributes that mark this prestigious award, and we are delighted to recount his accomplishments as we invite your consideration. He is a distinguished artist, designer, planner, teacher, leader and guide to all of us who seek to understand the connections between architecture and the world around us. He is an unusually creative “bridge builder”.

As professor of architecture at Clemson University, Lynn serves the school and the chapter as the Education Liaison on the AIASC Board of Directors, a role that is uniquely suited to his temperament and perspective at this stage in his career. He was a student athlete at Clemson in the sixties, a practicing architect and urban designer in England throughout the seventies , a teacher of architecture and urbanism on campus in the eighties and , ever since, an untiring advocate for bridging education and practice .

Throughout his career in education and practice, Lynn has held the highest regard for the professional institute of architecture, both in the UK and in the USA. He has served the state chapter with thoughtful enthusiasm at all levels including as president (1995) and, more recently, as Chairman of the AIA-150 Celebration (2006-2007). At a time when the gap between education and practice had widened in many states, Lynn sought to strengthen the important ties between the chapter and the academy. He has created and coordinated a gathering for many years at the national AIA Convention for Clemson alumni and regularly invites students and alumni into his home. Lynn

encourages those AIASC members seeking fellowship in the Institute by graphically outlining procedures and steps in the detailed submission process and has become the biggest cheerleader for each candidate.

His impressive fellowship submission has been included with this letter to help you better understand the impact he has made on this state and region .

His background in practice is exemplary.

After graduating from Clemson with his Bachelor of Architecture, Lynn studied urban design at Washington University in St. Louis and returned to his home territory of Baltimore where he worked with RTKL Associates on the Inner Harbor planning and design. He honed his extraordinary talent for participatory design and freehand sketching that has served him well in the intervening years. His ability to see

the world from a variety of view-points as well as translate those perspectives through freehand drawing is remarkable.

In the early seventies, Lynn accepted an invitation to join the innovative practice of the late Geoffrey Rowe, FRIBA (Abbey Hanson Rowe & Partners) in Huddersfield, England. While there, he occasionally worked with the renowned urbanist Gordon Cullen whose book Townscape served as a national guide for urban design. Lynn’s town center designs for Ayers Rock (Australia) , Porto (Portugal) , and Grantham (Isaac Newton’s hometown) won international competitions and national awards.

In the late seventies, he represented the firm in Rome while working on a project in the Middle East with Studio Nervi and, at this time, came to serve on project reviews at our Villa in Genoa. This opportunity aiasc.org

65

sparked his latent interest in teaching.

At the invitation of the late Dean Harlan McClure, FAIA, Lynn returned to Clemson to teach architecture and urban design. He has taught studio at all levels along with seminars in urban design and cross-disciplinary courses in “place making” - the latter with President Jim Barker and a group of professors from the Humanities. For more than twenty years, Lynn has been responsible for the AIA/ ACSA/NCARB award winning professional practice courses which are largely responsible for acclimating graduate students to the profession through project case studies, practice standards and the legal environment of architectural practice.

Always the “bridge builder”, Lynn’s studio teaching is based upon the lessons of service to society. His forays into community-based design have led him to foster strong relations between civic leaders and leaders within our profession, the former coming to understand the power of good design and the latter coming forward to forge fresh relationships within their own communities. This past semester, for example, Lynn’s design studio returned to St. Helena’s Island to prepare varied student designs for an interpretive center at the historic fort. Many years ago, his students prepared similar hypothetical designs for the Island’s library + community

66

AIA South Carolina Architecture

center, since executed under the careful guidance of Liollio Architecture.

Along with his studio activities, Lynn now teaches freehand drawing as a way of seeing the world. At the start of the semester, his students have an unsteady hand and an unsure gaze, but as time goes on, the drawings tell a much more sophisticated story of what’s observed and what’s recorded. Gordon Cullen encouraged us to view the act of drawing as “the art of relationship.”

Lynn interprets the great urbanist’s calling with a more contemporary perspective and his students’ work is thus inspired.

Lynn’s own body of work is well known to many of us. The hundreds of sketches, drawings and paintings have

now been collected into an illustrated manuscript to be published in the near future. In writing about the drawings he also passionately describes the tools - the pens, pencils, sharpeners, erasers and paper options - that are essential to his art, the art of relationship.

It was our privilege to present Lynn to those who attended the Awards Banquet.

This we did with a touch of good natured humor and appropriate humility in the presence of other distinguished honorees.

Seeing so many of his former students come forward to receive well-deserved design awards was, in itself, a fine tribute to the selection of Lynn G. Craig as the winner of the AIASC Medal of Distinction for 2013.
