Room 305 is an inviting lounge that inspires, relaxes, and engages students. Color is bright and bold, used to harmonize with the department’s image and to draw peo-ple in to the lounge. A limited color pallet is used to bring focused emphasis. Natural interior elements connect the view from the west window of large oak trees, making the space feel open to the lawn and relaxing to students. Strong unique forms in the furniture ground the space so students feel comfortable exploring new ideas. Organic and straight lines are used in a planned manner, exhibit-ing rhythm, creating movement while reinforcing stability. Dynamic angles, lines and forms create unique design ele-ments that break up the more solid aspect of the design.

PediaCare Pediatric Clinic is in need of a waiting room for well children ages 2-5 visiting their office. Developing fine and gross motor skills are very important at this age, along with exploration. Providing positive distractions keep the patients minds occupied, lessening apprehensions of their visit. A warm embracing design will reduce stress and anxiety for both the parents and children.

The color choices were made due to research which found that RED is chosen as first choice by a majority of ages 2-5. PURPLE was sec-ond, likely because it’s adjacency to red and because it is a mix of red and blue, a cool color. Cool colors are also preferred by children in this age range.

OBJECTIVES

1. Focus attention on Family Areas2. Connect the outside and inside, through vistas, light, and access3. Hold family values accountable

Emma and Andrew John and their daughter Grace, age 10, recently moved from the suburb Dexter to Ann Arbor, Mich-igan with their large dog Hercules. Andrew has lost over 100 pounds in the past two years for medical reasons and has caused the John’s to reevaluate their lifestyle and family goals. The John’s now incorporate activities that will keep them mentally and physically fit in to their daily life, and wish to build their new home to support this life style change. The home must be suitable for Hercules to be inside for longer durations of time during the winter months and create a family atmosphere foster-ing grace’s growth. Because of Andrew’s weight loss the lifestyle changes have also caused Emma to lose over 50 pounds and they hope to equip Grace to lead a happy healthy life. Therefore, they have requested that their new 2 story home be built with innovative ways of achiev-ing an active healthy life style, with influences seen in every room of the house.

JUNIOR FALL

REVIT.CONCEPT

THE CHIN PEOPLE The Chin are an ethnic group concentrated in a region on the western edge

of Burma (Myanmar), called the Chin State. This area is mountainous and has rich forests. Over ninety percent of the Chin people are Christians, due to missionary influence starting in 1813. The primary Christian ethnic group has been under severe persecution from the Burman Government, for their Christian beliefs and democratic affiliations in earlier political tension. Since that time the Chin have been put into forced labor, faced with heavy prison sentences and churches, pastors, and even crosses have been the target of much violence. Due to this persecution many Chin have fled and become refugees in neighboring India along with here in the United states. Thankfully peace is starting to return to the country and some refugees have been able to return home.

PROJECTThe First Baptist Church of Lewisville has decided to build a Chin community cultural center on their campus. One of the buildings is to be a place for the Chin refugees to practice their death rituals, it is necessary to provide a safe place where the family can stay with the deceased as friends and family come and visit over a multiple day period.

The Death Pavilion is a cultural study of the Death rituals of a non western culture. The assignment was to create a structure to hold the rituals of the culture.

23

DEATH RITUALS

The dead in the chin culture have always been buried. The body is wrapped in a Puan, a traditional chin blanket, and kept at the family’s home until the funeral and burial usually performed by the local pastor. The body is left in the home for 1 to 3 days. During this time friends and family come visit the body and family for extended periods of time. They sing about the personal achievements of the deceased, share food and mourn.

CULTURAL CONSIDERATIONS

In the Chin culture certain behaviors and body language

are used to show signs of respect especially to elders. This part of the social fabric may then influence how to show

respect in one’s death.

24

SPACE PLANNING

An angled diamond shape intersects two linear forms, functioning as a

connection between the family and the visitors. It creates a focus at the

point of interaction. The intersection also allows for an indirect approach to

the body showing respect.

Three levels are used to distinguish between

spaces. Level 1 , ground level, is the first space you encounter upon entering. It is the

lowest level in order invoke honor, when

walking in one feels respectful and humbled.

Level 2, is the highest level at 3 feet above ground level. It includes the family

quarters and the resting place of the deceased.

Ascending the stairs one is now in the closest

area to their loved one, this is the place

to mourn and feel close to them. Level 3, at 1’6” of the ground level, is closest to the

exit. This level is still more intimate than

the first but is becoming more distant than

the second. It is more reverent, a placed to

reflect and say goodbye.

The Puan is a traditional Chin Blanket, it showcases difficult weaving techniques and motifs of everyday life. It is used to wrap the deceased body in. Diamond shapes overlap and intersect with the woven horizontal and vertical lines.PARTI

25

CONCEPT SOLUTION

The Death Pavilion will be an open foyer for the family of the deceased to receive visitors, connected to a small apartment for them to stay during this time. Color

will be used to add warmth to the space and incorporate the cultural means of expression.

Materials will be natural and incorporate elements of their usual building environment to create familiarity, emphasizing a strong

use of wood and woven textures. Vertical and horizontal lines will be combined, and

intersected by angled elements. Respect will inform the space, by creating indirect angles of path to and from the deceased and incorporating a level difference. Acoustics

will be addressed to provide an pleasing environment for singing.
