Sisters Mobile Art Studio Spring 2011 | Professor Erin Moore

The primary goal of this project is to create a space that will draw talented artists to Sisters and provide them an enriching experience of the area while facilitating the creation of great works of art.

The living and working functions are separated into their own units which face a common porch providing an expansion of perceived space and a connection to the outdoors.

The modular construction sits lightly on the ground and is easily transport-able on the back of a flatbed truck. A steel exoskeleton provides a rugged structure to which Structural Insulated Panels are bolted, providing a continuous layer of insulation.

The project aims to have net-zero impact, through use of PV panels, cap-turing rainwater, and composting all waste. Contact with each of these systems will enhance the user’s awareness of personal consumption.

PHASE 3 - Booth Kelly Site - Current Design Proposal

In 1851, Elias and Isaac Briggs dug channels connecting a series of preexisting sloughs to create a new braid off of the Willamette River. This channel brought the power of the river to their property and spurred the development of the city of Springfield.

In the 1980s, The mill was closed and the Booth Kelly property donated to the city of Springfield. The millrace was largely forgotten and the mill was left an empty shell, awaiting new life.

The Booth Kelly mill thrived along the banks of the millrace for decades, providing employment to half of the city in 1917.

In 2012, I was hired by a developer in Philomath, Oregon to create the schematic design for a single-story, single-family Passive House, to blend into the suburban context.

In addition to the schematic design work, I completed energy use analysis as the Passive House Consultant, and developed construction details in collaboration with the builder and project engineer.

THERM heat flux models were used to analyze heat loss in the limited eave space. The inner wall’s top plate will be held low, with polyiso above to increase the R-Value in this vulnerable area while avoiding the potential thermal bridge through the headers.

Hygrothermal Analysis with WUFI suggest that moisture is managed appropriately. Water content in each component decreases over time, the temperature inside the air barrier does not reach the dew point, and RH shows a downward trend out of the 80s.
