urban infoam

Alex Webb, Studio 401, Fall Infoam is a research-based investigation into the relationship between urban context and architecture. Working with Perkins &Will and the City of Albuquerque, UNM’s city lab studio examined relationships between urban behavior, "big data" and architectural design to demonstrate how architecture can affect local economy and support with urban agenda.

urban site plan and circulation

The goals for Innovate ABQ is to revitalize people around a new economic development that is strategically based on entrepreneurial innovation and community collaboration. My proposal for Innovate ABQ is to redevelop the existing hub and incorporate virtual technology, in which it can promote a collaborative networking space that allows users to interact with one another by using modern technology as a resource for entertainment, collaboration,and networking.

concept design

Listing the existing programs in the downtown area, I began to conceptually mix the programming of the site with one another.

Creating a diagram for each program then manipulating the layout square. Changing its width and height, allowing the design to flow together and seeing what spaces are created, creating pockets that can house multiple virtual realities.

Michaele Pride, Studio 402, Spring pt. 1 Applying Urban Infoam in a microscale, this studio focused on applying these ideas into a designated space in the downtown area of ABQ. Working with Projects for Public Space and City of Albuquerque, our groups proposed conceptual ideas for the Civic Plaza to help create a more inviting and synergistic environment.

site problems

Built in 1974, The Civic Plaza is considered as the heart of downtown Albuquerque. Although it was design to hold outdoor events, the current Civic Plaza developed some problems that has decrease public use. Ranging from underutilized space, non existing shade structures, limited green space and non attractive programming to appeal users.

Open Space is utilized as a transitional space, from one place to another.

Non existing shade structures. Civic Plaza centered between two non popular streets.

proposal

To apply our conceptual Infoam design my collaborators and I proposed to add a beer garden under the existing trellises in the southeast corner of the plaza. In order to implement a beer garden in that area, we had to enclose the space allowing the section to be more private and intimate. Some ideas to enclosed space included, applying shade drapes to allow protection from weather elements and planters to increase more greenery and borders around the section. We also propose to create a hybrid of curtain planters to serve as functional dividers for the beer garden and outside users. We also propose to implement a kitchen and hand washing station to the area since the designated trellis provides water and gas. This beer garden can serve as two different functions, one as a seating and private area to relax during the day, and a fun and entertaining area at night.

urban application

Michaele Pride, Studio 402 pt. 2 To continue my urban research I collaborated with six other students in my class and created practical prototypes for the Civic Plaza in downtown Albuquerque.

These prototypes were made to test out our conceptual proposal. As a team, we used recycled pallets and manipulated them, creating a moveable pallet chair and seating table. Woking with Bernalillo County, City of Albuquerque and Projects for Public Space, we found simple solutions that could be tested during lively times at the plaza. As we analyzed the site, we found that there were no comfortable seating areas within the courtyard, hence creating the problem of no user interaction within the space.

pallet table

Creating this pallet table allowed to fill the dead space around the light poles, allowing users to stop and be able to interact within the space. We gathered two 48”X40” recycled pallets, cutting both pallets. For the top, we used an 80”X55” sized Oak wood sheet, coated with Minwax Tung Oil Sealant to protect it from outdoor weather. We added dowels and metal clippings on the ends of the half pieces to allow the table to be easily assembled around the light poles, making it accessible to put away and assemble on site we also cut out spaces within the table to add greenery to the environment.

pallet chair

We also built a moveable pallet chair.

We took three 48”X40” size pallets, sanded and cleaned off each pallet to be safe and user friendly. For joinery, we used Radius Adjusted Door Hinges, Which connected all three pallets together. From there we added six Heavy Duty Swivel Wheels so it can be easy to maneuver. For the middle pallet on each side, we added a 18”X36” size piece of wood that swivels down to create the seats. For support we added two additional pieces of wood at the bottom of the seat to swing out and hold the seat for support.

nostalgia ultra

Justine Humble, Relative Narrative From interdimensional time travel to a journey thru nostalgia; music allows a metauniverse of memories that grants emotional time travel allowing you to revisit special moments from your life. From your first kiss to your first joy ride, music transcends you from time and space. Disappearing the walls of your reality and allowing you to roam freely through the universe. My intentions for this project was to illustrate my musical memories, from discovering my first box of CDs to allowing music to drown out the static of the world, to emotionally connecting with a fall fling; music has allowed me to timestamp special moments in my life.

deconstruction of time

Justine Humble, Relative Narrative Using music as a construct of time and progression, we get to use it as a timestamp in our memories. But what happens when the progression in music is interrupted by a different beat or a different rhythm? If music was a construct of space, will that place look different? Using the concept of deconstructivism and influences of Daniel Libeskind, we get to deconstruct music, visually composing different tempos and rhythms, visually creating different spaces floating in the progression of time.

solar shift

Cory Greenfield, Studio 302, Sandia National Labs Newly developed technology is revolutionizing the way solar voltaic harvest energy from the sun by miniaturing solar panels to microcells. By combining mature technologies and tools currently used in microsystem production, an innovative photovoltaic cell enables a flexible design, improve efficiency, and reduce cost. Solar Photovoltaic research employs micro design and microfabrication techniques common to the semiconductor and liquid crystal display to enable flexibility and efficiency.

A printing technique similar to printing ink is used to “print� these photovoltaic cells onto a low-cost substrate with embedded contacts and microlenses for focusing sunlight onto the cells. Microsystems enabled photovoltaics opens many new opportunities and potential applications in buildings, houses, clothing, portable electronics, vehicles, and a variety of other contoured structures. The external electric current needed to activate and maintain electroactive polymers is a factor disabling its use in large scale construction and design. However, MEPV may be the solution for applying electroactive polymers in large scale design. With the development of MEPV, microsized solar cells can be integrated into EAP to create a self-sufficient system.

Further development may enable remote control of energy levels for maximum energy gain for maintaining the EAP systems which can be integrated into building systems. Developing EAP systems with integrated MEPV opens new opportunities to architectural design and construction.

las vegas art gallery/studio

Kennith Mayers, Studio 302 Located in Las Vegas New Mexico, Las Vegas holds a cultural richness that makes the city’s history unique.

Stemming from Spanish Colonial influences, the town constructed a railroad in order to maintain control of developmental rights. As history demonstrates, art influences made its way across the country influencing the cities culture. Right off the main plaza, the proposal consisted of an Art Gallery/Studio. Preserving the cities history and culture by using art as its predecessor. This art studio allows the city to display local art while also offering a location for local artist to work and reside in when working on new projects.
