SUNSET FUNERARY CHAPELA non-denominational funeral chapel was to be built in Manhattan, Kansas. The program called for indoor and outdoor group and individual worship spaces. Accommodating for the site’s steep incline, a parti was developed for the building to be a pier to symbolize religious and natural connections. To add to the idea of nature, the building was kept simple and natural with columns designed to look like trees which keep the interior free of obstructions.

ROATAN TRAUMA CENTERThe trauma center was designed to be constructed on a small island of Honduras. Together, a team of fifth and third year architecture students worked for a semester on this project. Design and programming were conducted after visiting the site and talking with locals, mayors, and the governor of Roatan. Due to an uncertain electrical grid, the building had to be able to function without power. Affordability and use of local materials were other main concerns, so heavy timber construction was utilized.

KANSAS CITY WELLNESS CENTERA wellness center should relate to the human body and its characteristics. The human body is inherently strong and fragile. Exercising makes the human body stronger and less susceptible to breaking; it pushes the limits on human capability. This wellness center strives to match these characteristics by creating a strong and, private mass as well as a more fragile, public mass, these two masses are then hinged together and tied into the earth by a third element, the spine.

THE WALL HOUSE CHARETTE“The Wall House” was completed as a 2 day study on how a physical barrier can effect daily life. This charette was intended to visibly show how the Swiss Christians and Jews were living side by side during WWII, separate but in harmony. The wall acts as an architectural element to divide served and service spaces, it also provides the structure for the house which floats above the site. Puncturing the wall, is the kitchen space, which acts as both a served and service area and is the center of the home’s circulation.

How can a curtain wall system be created which is thermally effective and easily constructed?To answer this, one can look to examples in the field of aviation. Planes have walls which are thin, endure massive loads, and are constructed in solid pre-fabricated panels. This is done using an insulating core and covered with a stressed skin. Every piece of the plane is engineered to be lightweight and efficient. These same ideas can be applied to a building envelope; customized structural panels which incorporate a number of systems.

Easy installation, ability for customization, and high r-values are revolutionary to the concept of curtain walls. Architects will be able to design a façade which is not limited by a regular frame. This façade can integrate building systems such as mechanical and electrical to free the interior space from previously necessary partition walls and be easily disassembled for routine maintenance.

Using the system, one can replace the negative image of a vacant big box store with the positive image of an adaptive, sustainable and prefabricated library in order to transform the mall, traditional big box, and Des Moines.

Warping Zones represent the areas where information is shared and gained through talking with others and using the Internet. Users are enticed into these spaces with views of them from the interior and exterior. Furthermore, they are the only areas in the building with clear glazing; allowing for views of the surrounding area and putting the transfer of information on display for the community.

Ecotect, an energy modeling software, was used to see how these information transfer crystals can be used to provide adequate natural daylight throughout the library. In the first try, on the left, there are several spots where glare is an issue and the maximum daylight factor is above 95%. By analyzing those areas of weakness, it was possible to keep redesigning and add a drop ceiling system to generate the results seen on the right. The light is more even throughout and the maximum is only around 25%.

Similar to daylighting, now this “failure” can be analyzed and redesign can happen to lower the heating loads on the building.
