DECEMBER 2008- AUGUST 2010MARGO JONES ARCHITECTS

PROJECT LOCATION: MAIN STREET HISTORIC DISTRICTGREENFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS

In an unprecedented effort of downtown revitalization, six business owners of nine historic buildings, all within the National Register listed Greenfield Main Street Historic District, banded together to obtain funding, including New Market, state and federal historic rehabilitation tax credits. Margo Jones Architects, consulting with Epsilon Associates, wrote all MHC and NPS tax credit applications and follow-up correspondence with both agencies. MJA was also architect for two projects.

These nine buildings have suffered from decades of neglect. The influx of state and federal tax credits will provide the oppor-tunity for new residential and commercial uses, an economic boost which is long overdue.

PROJECT LOCATION:Wendover Air Force BaseWendover, UT

PARTNER:Christina Haas

PROJECT OVERVIEW:Comprehensive Studio was an intensive, ten week summer semester course in which teams of two were asked to design a mu-seum and restoration facility that would be capable of holding two B-29 bombers, the Enola Gay and the Bockscar. Design challenges included coping with housing the sheer size of the planes, a flat, desolate site adjacent to the salt flats, as well as the incredibly somber subject matter.

SPRING 2009MARGO JONES ARCHITECTS

PROJECT LOCATION: 83 WISDON WAYGREENFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS

The Roundhouse, a Shaker style round barn built in 1899, sits at the entrance of the Franklin County Fairgrounds. It is a wood framed building with a conical, wood-shingled roof that rises to a round cupola. Over time, significant deteriora-tion had taken its toll on the building, resulting in a historic resource in great need of rehabilitation.

Under the direction of the Franklin County Agricultural Society, Margo Jones Architects was hired to document current building conditions and oversee the reha-bilitation. With the help of multiple Mas-sachusetts state grants, the structure was reinforced, and a new wood shingle roof, various portions of siding, new windows, and a new flagpole were installed.

PROJECT LOCATION:West 38th Ave. and Tennyson St.Denver, CO

PROJECT OVERVIEW:In this Advanced Studio, we used an actual, ongoing project in Denver to explore the nature of historic preservation, adaptive re-use and interventions of an important historic building.

The client, the Center for American The-ater, asked the class to design alterations to the historic Elitch Theater so that it would meet the requirements of a modern facility while maintaining its integrity as an historic structure that played a significant role in the development of theater not only in Denver, but the entire country. We were also asked to add a school to the existing theater.

PROJECT LOCATION:14th and Larimer Sts.Denver, CO

PROJECT OVERVIEW:In Studio IV, we were asked to design a cinema/archive. The cinema was to be the point of departure as well as the vehicle for the exploration of the link between build-ing types and the cultural institutions they serve, i.e. the link between form, function, and ideology.

How cultural values, beliefs, ideas and ide-als are formed and given architectonic form and what specific role buildings do or can play within the wider cultural context were some of the many issues explored in this studio class.

PROJECT LOCATION:13th and Bannock Sts. Denver, CO

PROJECT OVERVIEW:In Studio III, we were asked to design a single-artist museum to house the entire works of the Abstract Expressionist painter Clyfford Still.

Sited just west of Daniel Libeskind’s Ham-ilton Wing of the Denver Art Museum, part of the challenge was to design a build-ing which would sit directly adjacent to an iconic building. This project also had a very specific program specified by the estate of Clyfford Still, including an educational cen-ter, a library, archives, storage, a conserva-tion laboratory and a variety of public areas.

B & W PHOTOGRAPHY

Photography has been a hobby of mine since I took a few classes during high school. Learning on a 35 mm film camera, as well as spending time in the darkroom developing film and printing photographs, really gave me an appreciation for the art of photography. I have since moved into the world of digital photography, but the basic principles remain the same.

Photography is all about capturing light and space while framing a subject in a pleasing composition. Movement, scale, foreground/background and depth are also important aspects of any photographer’s work. In my opinion, photography and architecture share many of the same overarching ideas, and the study of one can certainly pertain to the other, both directly and indirectly. Obtaining an understanding of light and shadow, for example, will help both the photographer and the architect excel in their medium.
