The architectural designstudio at santa chiara incastiglione fiorintino, italyfocused on and incorporatedwithin the structure, content, andopportunities offered by the cityitself as well as its surroundingareas. The semester long projectasked the student to design aseries of interventions along astreet in the nearby city of cortona.
The series of interventionsmust include one facade (a placethat is a threshold between publicand private, inside and outside),places for people to sit, places forpeople to stand, a place that isan entry to an urban room/piazza,and one water fountain.

The design focused on movement along the street, witha sequence of elements that notonly brought people onto it butprovided a passageway to achurch and park. The interventionswere a response to thearchitecutural language,characteristics, patterns, andmaterials of the place.
The goal of the design wasto find a resolution for an inhabitable facade whileintegrating the area around it bygeometetric organization andproportional understanding.Defining inside and outside aswell as public versus private wasa key element in the design. New interventions, existingelements, and structure were allintegrated to create a clear part to whole relationship.

The objective of theassignment was to explore asystems approach to the designof the built environment at a smallscale. The project asked for thedesign of a temporary shelter forthe homeless. The facility must beable to be broken down andmoved to other locations. It mustalso have a kitchen to supplydaily meals, restrooms, and actas a shelter during emergencycircumstances.
The design is based on amodular bay system that sits onconcrete pillars. Since there is nohvac, the buildings have beensituated on the site to allow for asouth eastern breeze to blowthrough the louvered walls andscreened openings. The materialsare simply wood with a corrugatedmetal roof.
