Overlap
By taking two disparate objects and overlapping them, what happens in the interstitial space?
Examining how to foster collaboration in our four person group inspired us to manifest those findings in the building. By overlapping program, space, and function we create collaborative environments for the Center for Integrated Design and Construction Research.
By taking two disparate objects and overlapping them, what happens in the interstitial space?
The project is supported by six unique cores that exist in the overlaps of program.
The structure is based on North-South shear walls infilled with steel framing to allow passage and light.
Some of the cores had responsabilities of supplying water, air, and power to their programs.
This project has three levels comprised of platforms with 30" offsets to allow programmatic mixing.
The roof skin wraps down the sides of the building.
An open ground plan provides a shady respite to pedestrians walking from campus to the light rail.
Blue, Green, and Red Core
Green, Elevator, and Yellow Core.
Pedestrians on College Avenue are welcomed into the ground floor.
As you enter the building you can see every level and almost every program element.
The Fab Lab ties the whole building together.
