PHILOSOPHY ////////
Architectural design must be a solution to a problem
and a synthesis of contextual information. More
than the product of an aesthetic vision, a building
needs to support social interraction through spatial
functionality.
Architects have the ability to inspire real change
within a community. A building design that meets the
needs of the people becomes a catalyst for community
scale improvement. Informed, critical changes can
heal a system as a whole.
My education in architecture has prepared me to
implement change through architectural design,
realizing that the moves that I choose to make in
an individual design can have lasting impacts on a
community.

This design is the result of thorough study of architectural acoustics and urban design. The challenge was to create an urban space that felt grand enough for the opera, yet approachable for every day use, and create an auditorium capable of functioning as an opera house. The location of the building, in Ogden Plaza, drove the strong
orthogonal geometry of the design and prompted two circulatory axis. The ovoid of the auditorium became the most important statement of the site, being the one element released from controlled orthogonality. Though it appears spherical, acoustic concerns formed a unique shape, that functions optimally for its purpose.

The site is sloped, with approximately a twenty-five foot difference from the north end to the south end. By raising the north end of the plaza, we were able to achieve a flat plane, and create grand staircases that lead to the opera. We were also able to activate the north end of the site with
rentable space for retail, and an accessible entrance to accomodate the north entry.By filling the plaza with trees, users are provided with shade in the summer months. In the winter months as the trees begin to shed, the opera begins to unveil and assert its presence in the city.

In a modern approach to the auditorium, subdued finishes take a backdrop to the production.

Attendees expect the experience of a night at the opera to be full of grandeur and opulence. The bar becomes a magnet for socialization and display. The bar in this design is cantilevered over the entryway,
becoming a prominent feature of the building. From this placement on the site, the best views of the city can be seen across the river to the southwest. It serves dual function as a prominent marquee.

THINKING HANDS ////
In the digital age, freehand sketching and analog
modeling is losing its presence in architectural
design. Digital means are taking the profession
to new heights, allowing more complex designs
to be envisioned than ever before, and some
designers are losing their hand for craft. Yet, these
sketches and models speak to clients in a way
that renderings cannot. They allow the client to
envision the design, and open a dialogue between
the designer and the client. They allow designers
to see flaws in the designs that can often be mulled
over on the computer. They force designers to
confront problems with geometry. They are also a
necessity in the iterative design process, allowing
designers to move in a linear process toward
refinement and clarity.

URBAN RENEWAL /////
Healthy cities are defined by the quality of life by the people living there. Ailing cities are losing this quality because their problems have become seemingly too large to repair. The principle of urban acupuncture argues that interventions at key points throughout the city can revitalize the entire system. Just as in medical acupuncture, small interventions can spark chain reactions, resulting in the improvement of the city as an entity.
Jaime Lerner, an authority on urban renewal, argues that any city, anywhere can be brought back to life by making improvements in these key areas: mobility, sociodiversity, and sustainability.1 The provision of effective public transportation is key to promoting mobility within cities. If existing forms of public transportation are not convenient or effective, people will not use them. This is especially true in mid-west American culture, where the car reigns supreme as a symbol of freedom and financial success. Sociodiversity ‘encompasses the need to embrace and celebrate the multiplicity of peoples with different income levels, ages, religions, races and so on within the city, while at the same time preserving the traits that define each one’s identity.’ 1 Maintaining a mix of social classes helps to bond the community and create a feeling of safety within the city’s public spaces. Sustainability does not only imply that new construction be built to “green” standards, but also that the community live in ways that are more ecologically responsible: reducing dependancy on the vehicle; living nearer to the city center, combating sprawl; providing efficient energy sources to the community; and promoting recycling.

Denotes location of Pabst Warehoue rennovation project
Once a dilapidated district of abandoned warehouses, in recentyears the Kansas City, Missouri, Crossroads district has been begun to be rehabilitated by local artists. Cities have a history of being reinvented in this way. Artists move in to run-down areas of the city and reinvigorate them with the livelihood of art culture. Due to its proximity to the city center, the Crossroads district is gaining popularity as a residential district. Loft rates are increasing, causing artists to move into the West Bottoms district, leaving the crossroads in a downward spiral of gentrification. The new Kauffman Center is a performance hall located just north of the given building. It is a catalyst for music culture in Kansas City. Drawing on the contextual relation of the two buildings, the focus of the restoration will be to create a place where local musicians can thrive, without being forced from the area. This will help the Crossroads to retain its identity as the arts district.

The Pabst warehouse was built in the 1910’s by the Pabst Brewing Company. The building was used for horse stabling and has been named on the National Historic Register. For this reason, much of the existing building may not be changed. The east facade must remain in historical condition. The building itself is very structurally sound, allowing the
flexibility to alter the floor plates. During prohibition the building was owned by infamous Kansas City historical figures, The Pendergasts. They established a speakeasy on the north side of the building. The building’s interesting history generates interest throughout the community and provides inspiration for the project.

Kansas City relies on vehicular transportation, and parking lots dominate the city landscape (shown in blue). Parking lots not only severely compromise the microclimate of the city and damage the water table, but also continue to promote vehicular transportation. The city has established bus routes, but low volume and infrequency of stops shy commuters away from using the system. Bus stops have the capacity to greatly increase the rate of public transportation use within cities. Commuters are more likely to use public transportation when it is made convenient for them. Bus stops make users aware of their presence, shelter them from the weather, and promote community interaction.

TRANSMUTATIONAL
CITIES //////////
In the summer of 2012, I participated in a study abroad excursion that traveled to several countries in Western Europe. The focus of the trip was to study the transumational qualities of each of the cities. My professors, Bruce Johnson and Genevieve Baudoin, encouraged me to create a collage of images in the style of James Corner in order to document these qualities in each urban setting. Each city has two accompanying collages, one dedicated to a large scale urban
development and the other delineating urban fit of specific buildings. The trip also required the journaling of memory maps for each day, which helped me to understand the cities as I spent more time exploring them. Much of the journey focused on full cognition of the cities' patterns, which were learned through first-hand experience by walking and taking public transportaion of all types. In addition to the cities we documented, we also visited Paris and Lyon.

conteXtThe chosen site lies on a shallow slope at the end of an existing driveway. Utilization of the current infrastructure will create an easy progression of users by being in close proximity to the existing buildings and speed the process of construction.
DESIGN/BUILD //////
The University of Kansas Field Station is a component of the university dedicated to biological and ecological studies. The Field Station is in need of additional facilities to promote further on site study and to better perform ecological experiments. They have received a grant to expand their infrastructure by adding a small greenhouse to be used for controlled experiments year round, a large greenhouse to house experiments in the warmer months, and a multipurpose building that would be used as flexible space. The
multipurpose building needs to function as a classroom, workshop, and event venue, and maintain the flexibility to accommodate more if need be. As they are located several miles north of campus, there is little connectivity between the two sites. The locally iconic skyline of campus is visible from elevated vantage points at the site. The goal is to meet the programmatic needs of the clients while capitalizing on the connection to campus and striving to create sustainable architecture.

The tower allows for visitors to view the surrounding site and creates an important connection by establishing a visual line back to the University Campus. From the top of the tower, onlookers can view the outline of Frasier Hall, an iconic campus building that can be seen from miles away. At night, the view would be particularly impressive, because of the glowing lights of Lawrence and the halo-effect it creates. The tower also allows the Field Station to harvest wind energy and bring internet access to this rural part of town, possible sources of revenue for the Field Station to subsidize the cost of experiments.

The field station received a grant to expand their infrastructure by adding a small greenhouse (1) that they could use for controlled experiments year round, a large glasshouse (2) that would house experiments in the warmer months, and a multi-purpose building (3) that would be used as a flexible space.
Prior to the introduction of this new facility, the approach to the site was one expansive view. The scheme proposes blocking this view from the approach, and dramatically revealing it. Certain views will be blocked in order to create smaller, but more impactful, framed views. For example, the opening of the barn style doors at the entrance creates a framed view through the building and showcasing the magnificent landscape.

By orienting the building orthogonally, the design takes advantage of sunlight year round and creates a high-performance greenhouse atmosphere. Large, twelve-foot wide sliding doors allow for easy transportation of large microcosms and equipment.
The form of the building showcases a powerful view and creates an indoor-outdoor patio intended for use as an outdoor classroom and open event space. Researchers can also utilize this space as an extension of their workspace during fair weather.

Early iterations of site design were controlled by studies of site axes derived from existing buildings, roads, and experimental plots and also by the study of shadow lines that occur throughout the year. The shape of the building section was prescribed by the availability of pre-engineered structural members. The clients
were interested in semi-custom aspects of building, in an effort to maintain the given budget. The size of member chosen allows for twelve-foot interior sidewalls and a fifteen-foot central height. The space is tall enough to allow large equipment and full size plant specimens their maximum clearance.

The 1600 square foot multipurpose room is a space to gather, have fund raising events, host classes, and, on a daily basis, become a workshop. Large pivoting doors allow users to view the panoramic landscape. The room has a preparation area with three sinks and many storage cabinets. The walls are covered in peg board, which allows users to easily hang tools. It also gives them the opportunity to hang other items such as works of art for a rural studio or large documents for town meetings or other events.

By building a prototype wall section of the building, we were able to gain further understanding of how the elements of the walls work and how the construction process can be made easier. The process of constructing our mock-up allowed us to make our design intent clearer and to maximize the effectiveness of
materials. All materials were chosen based on their performance and functionality, and stay true to the agrarian aesthetic prescribed by the context. These materials are easy to install in a modular fashion for faster construction. They also are either locally produced or recycled and aid in the sustainable responsibility of the building.
