1113Lake Michigan PavilionChicago, Illinois Fall 2009 Team Project: Michelle Mantegna
11
This project was a proposal for a new beachfront along Lake Michigan. The existing site is under-developed breaking connections between the communities of Evanston and Chicago. Currently, it is difficult to navigate the site and access the beaches. The newly proposed site links the last one-quarter mile of biking and walking paths to Chicago’s thirty-six miles of lakefront. The design provides visitors with a place to enjoy all that Lake Michigan has to offer. It includes orientation kiosks, public walkways and bicycle paths, an education center, café, public restrooms, a sheltering pavilion, and market kiosks for a weekly Farmer’s Market. The proposed architecture, landscape and site design educate visitors on the value of water and encourage people to exercise, building a healthier population in the Chicago area.

Water and sun have an awe-inspiring relationship with each other. It is alluring the way the sun reflects on water, the way water reflects light, and how people are enticed to reflect on this relationship. This water pavilion experientially celebrates water and sun, creating places for observation, interaction, and reflection.
Northwest View from Peninsula

The sun reflecting off of the stainless steel steps on the peninsula creates a mirage effect. This effect acts like a natural lighthouse drawing visitors to the end of the site and prompting them to look back and reflect on the beach. Once people arrive at the end of the peninsula, they can interact with the human sun dial. The stainless steel platforms create steps leading up to the top of the peninsula. During the winter these steps are warmed by the sun creating a warm oasis. During the summer, people can enjoy lying on the cool grass terraces.

The patio is made of white concrete, conceptually completing the tensile wave form. It wraps around and underneath the building, paralleling the movement of crashing waves. The concrete is coated with titanium dioxide, which captures sunlight, triggering a catalytic reaction and virtually cleaning the air around the patio.
A major means of circulation throughout the space is a boardwalk, an iconic means of circulation on a beach. Made of Juniper wood, it creates a nice aroma when abraded by sand and holds up to the elements. The tensile structure above frames eastern views of Lake Michigan and creates shelter from the elements.
The education center, located on the north side of the boardwalk, has an open floor plan for flexible art, interactive displays and educational activities. The education center overlooks the north park and market kiosks, providing a different view of Lake Michigan.

The orientation kiosks are located on the north and south sides of the site welcoming patrons to the beach. Announcements and orientation maps are displayed on the tensile shade structures. Their materiality provides a visual link to the main boardwalk, providing a means of wayfinding throughout the site.

19NetZero Education CenterLong Beach, California Spring 2010 Team Project: Justine Kane, Howard Yu & Geoffrey Clarkson
This project was part of The Leading Edge Competition held in Long Beach, CA. An awareness of the need for energy efficiency can only be conveyed through education, demonstration and practice. The goal of the design was to create a community center, both for education in energy efficiency and employment training. The program includes classrooms, offices, workshops, a library, and community gathering spaces. This education center creates an educational and sustainable atmosphere, while emphasizing affordability, constructability, and versatility through its various forms of sustainable strategies and design features. The building is designed to be a net-zero building by utilizing various passive strategies.

Entry Sequence Our team studied the design of the Getty Villa in Pasadena, California, paying close attention to the way it draws visitors in and leads them through the spaces. As visitors approach our site, the building slowly reveals itself behind the rolling hills along Long Beach Boulevard. The hills gradually decrease in size and intensity as the visitors approach the entrance. Once they discover the entrance, they cross a bridge, giving them a glimpse of the site that was hidden from the street. The entrance lobby displays a 2-story wall of falling water, collecting in an elongated, narrow pool. The overflow from the pool travels beneath a glass floor, leading the visitors onto a crosswalk that reveals an open-air courtyard. Visitors follow this axis, bringing them to the vertical circulation. From this point, they are able to discover the rest of the building in any combination of ways through physical exploration or through the dnamic versatility of the building.

The center will be powered through the use of 7,100 ft2 of photovoltaic panels which will provide up to 640 KwH per day. The panels are also part of a solar tri-generation system which will generate power and hot water simultaneously. When necessary, the hot water will be used to condition the spaces with anabsorption chiller and radiant heating system.

The education center’s form was driven by the optimization of natural ventilation and daylighting. The use of two narrow masses, as compared to one large mass, allows daylight to penetrate every space and channels the prevalent winds from the northwest to naturally ventilate the building.

An increasing concern in the Long Beach area is the growning number of shipping containers. The exterior of the building utilizes recycled shipping containers from nearby shipping yards. Their modular design allows the center to use nearly 75% of each container, minimizing on waste material. The panels will also double as vertical shading along the east and west facades. Horizontal shading devices and light shelves, also cut from recycled shipping containers, are placed on the south façade, reducing solar heat gain throughout the day while still reflecting natural light into occupied spaces.
The south curtain wall incorporates an LED curtain system for showing movies at community events. The south end of the site is terraced from grade up to the railroad embankment, creating natural seating for picnics, performances, or screenings. To increase daylighting to the lowest level of the building, the land around the building will be terraced down four feet. The excavated dirt will be re-used for the rolling hills along the Long Beach Boulevard entry path, which dramatically reduces the need for energy by eliminating the need to transport the excavated soil.

Water shortage is an issue that has made itself evident in recent years, especially in Southern California. Eco-Machines cleanse collected wastewater through a series of cleansing cycles, beginning with the anaerobic stage within a septic tank below grade. It is then pumped up to the third-floor Eco-Machines for the aerobic stage, where the water
is filtered through ten 150-gallon tanks and cleansed by plants, algae, and fish in a 50-hour natural process. This cleansed water then becomes a water feature that falls into the narrow pool in the lobby, then into large pools in the courtyard. This is where the final stage, the polishing stage, occurs as the water is further cleansed by plants and other natural processes. The clean product can then be reused for flushing toilets, irrigation and exterior washing.

33Community Hospital Gardez, Paktya, Afghanistan Spring 2011 Team Project: Angeline Stimpson
33
For this project, we worked alongside OWP/P | CannonDesign to design a Community Hospital in Gardez, a city in eastern Afghanistan. The greatest challenge of the project was incorporating all geographical, cultural and social aspects of the community, amidst the general organizational challenges of a hospital. The program included emergency, imaging, surgery, and labor & delivery departments, a laboratory, a pharmacy, an outpatient clinic, seperate men’s and women’s nursing wards, and also administration and back-of-house services. Due to geographical limitations, the entire hospital had to be built on one level.

• Red lines represent main highways in the
city. The red nodes symbolize roundabouts where the public roads intersect.
• Blue lines connect the main highways to the subdivision roads, colored yellow. These roads are usually only used if you know where you are going.
• Yellow lines are the local roads like subdivisions and neighborhood streets.
• Red lines correspond to the public hallways with circulation desks and a water feature, similar to the nodes in the city of Gardez.
• Blue lines are the interdepartmental hallways that could be used by clinicians as well as public occupants who know where they are going.
• Yellow lines are the hallways used by individualized departmental circulation. It is assumed that these hallways are not public.
In an effort to create simple circulation for visitors, we decided to model the circulation of the hospital after something familiar to the people of Gardez - their own city. Our team analyzed the layout of the city of Gardez in order to relate the organization of the city to the organization of the hospital. We believe that having a hospital designed around local traffic patterns could help with way-finding for a population with extremely low literacy rates. Circulation is based on three main patterns:

The large Iwan arch entryway draws the attention of visitors to the main entrance when they enter the hospital complex. A round-about is
centered in front of the main entrance to allow easy drop-off and pick-up of patients.

Due to the high siezmic activity in the area, most buildings are only built to one story. For a hospital, in particular, this creates some interesting challenges with respect to the intersections between clinical hallways, sterile corridors, and public hallways. Our focus throughout the project was on function, efficiency, and patient safety and privacy.

The courtyard provides a buffer zone between the public Bazaar and more private men’s ward. A religious center was added for patients, staff, family and bazaar users. The religious center is oriented toward the south-east, facing Mecca, to respect those with Islamic belief. A water fountain in the middle of the Bazaar provides a elegant setting for ablution, or cleansing before prayer. A loggia connects the indoor and outdoor Bazaar, blurring the line between indoor and outdoor dining spaces.

Due to the small percentage of people who utilize current hospital services, a major goal was to design a hospital that would encourage use of the facility for reasons health-related or not. The Bazaar promotes community involvement within a hospital setting. The hope is that visitors will become comfortable in a clinical setting, and when health issue arise, they will be more likely to visit the hospital.

To encourage families to visit the clinic, flexible waiting areas are spacious enough for large families.
The program called for one x-ray room in the emergency department and one x-ray room in the imaging department. The two x-ray rooms were placed adjacent to each other to accommodate surges in either department.

In Afghanistan’s culture, it is tradition to separate the wards by gender. This design places the men’s wards on the south side of the hospital and the women’s wards to the north. The orientation of the
beds allows patient to sleep on their right side, facing Mecca honoring Islamic preference. A courtyard connects the two Men’s Wards through a day room.

View from Nurses Station
The nurse-to-patient ratio in Afghanistan is very high. To maximize efficiency for nurses, we decided on a 4-bed patient room, with the privacy of a 2-bed patient room. The entrance to the room is centrally located so the nurse can see all patients simultaneously when entering the room. Bathrooms flank either side of the room so they are easily accessible for severely disabled patients. Each bathroom is then shared with the adjoining patient room, so there are no more than 4 patients per bathroom.

An important part of the healing process is access to daylight. With the strict privacy standards held by the Islamic people, a big challenge was providing daylight simultaneously to every bedded patient. Our solution was through the use of clearstories above each bed. The correct angle was used to provide views of the sky, without any direct sunlight hitting the patient for an extended period of time.
Natural ventilation is also accomplished through the use of clearstories. As air (predominently from the northeast) passes over the peaks, a negative pressure is created in the valleys, drawing the warm air out of the
rooms through the clearstory windows.
