MULTI-­‐USE  FACILITY  DESIGN  Cło  Beer  Museum  &  Brewery  

5  

Course  Level:  Senior  Project  Descripbon:  Design  a  mulb-­‐use  museum  facility  displaying  Wisconsin’s  rich  history  in  beer  making.  Concept:  The  concept  for  the  CŁO  beer  museum  and  brewery  is  derived  from  the  Polish  translabon  for  customs.  Brewing  customs  and  tradibons  are  a  central  part  of  the  history  of  Stevens  Point  and  Wisconsin  overall.  The  design  will  be  into  the  Wisconsin  River,  an  integral  part  of  the  brewing  history  of  Wisconsin,  which  connects  Stevens  Point  to  other  locabons  throughout  the  state.  The  mulbple  spaces  within  CŁO  will  all  work  together  to  weave  out  the  story  of  Wisconsin  beer  making,  and  bring  people  of  all  ages  together  in  a  fresh,  fun,  and  tacble  learning  environment.  The  design  will  focus  on  the  creabve  blending  of  industrial,  modern,  and  historic  elements  while  creabng  a  welcoming  space  that  will  foster  community  and  social  interacbon.    

COPPER  BREW  KETTLE  EXHIBIT  Two  story  copper  brewing  keoles    located  at  the  front  of  

the  museum  will  make  for  an  impressive  display  for  visitors  and  passersby  to  appreciate  

SOUTHERN  EXTERIOR  FACADE  The  majority  of  the  southern  side  of  the  facility  will  be  glazing  

allowing  for  natural  light  throughout  the  interior  and  connecbng  the  facility  to  the  conbguous  downtown  area.  

HISTORIC  BEER  HALL  BAR  AREA  The  merging  of  historic,    industrial,  and  contemporary  design  elements  will  create  an  excibng  and  inspiring  

learning  environment  for  guests  to  enjoy.  BAR  AREA

PRESENTATION  MATERIALS  3D  MODEL  -­‐  SCALE:  3/32”  –  1’-­‐0”  

Several  sustainable  aspects  were  incorporated  on  the  interior  as  well  as  on  the  exterior  of  the  facility.  A  few  of  these  strategies  included  bio-­‐swales  around  the  perimeter  for  runoff  water  collecbon  in  addibon  to  two  water  collecbon  pools  located  in  the  front  courtyard.    The  enbre  front  façade  was  glazed  to  allow  natural  light  to  flow  throughout  the  interior  along  with  providing  a  visual  connecbon  to  the  exterior  and  downtown  Stevens  Point.

DINING  AREA  

A  warm  paleoe  of  deep  golds,  rich  ambers,  and  calming  blues  was  chosen  for  the  space  further  developing  a  visual  connecbon  to  the  nearby  Wisconsin  river,  an  integral  part  of  beer  brewing  in  Wisconsin.    The  colors  chosen  also  draw  from  the  vivid  golds  and  ambers  of  a  good  brew  as  well  as  the  paleoe  provided  by  the  hop  plant  in  the  late  stages  of  budding.

It  was  decided  that  the  third  level  would  provide    the  perfect  sewng  for  the  upscale  restaurant  and  focal    area  due  to  it’s  great  views  of  the  downtown  area  as  well  as  the  availability  of  outdoor  space  for  extended  dining  space  during  the  summer  months.

Course  Level:  Junior  Project  Descripbon:  Design  the  interior  of  Siemen’s  new  Technology-­‐To-­‐Business  Center  (TTB)  located  in  Orlando,  Florida.    Concept:  Siemen’s  Technology-­‐to  Business  center  offers  employees  as  well  as  clients  a  vibrant,  open,  and  collaborabve  space  to  work  in.  The  design  is  centered  around  the  ublizabon  of  natural  light,  sustainability,  and  an  open  office  layout  to  promote  teamwork.  The  creabve  use  of  glass  paneling  on  private  office  walls  and  collaborabve  work  areas  such  as  the  ‘Hive’  conference  room  and  project  room  allows  for  natural  light  to  emerge  through  the  space.  The  glass  panels  also  provide  the  office  with  an  open  feeling,  yet  offer  moderate  privacy  where  needed.  The  incorporabon  of  Allsteel’s  Stride  office  furniture  and  a  vibrant  color  paleoe  of  reds  and  greens  grounded  by  dark  tradibonal  wood  elements  showcase  the  company’s  desire  to  be  sustainable,  its  innovabve  direcbon,  as  well  as  its  longevity.

DIMENSIONED  FURNITURE  PLAN  

Project  Parameters:    •  Project  Size:    6,500  square  feet  •  LocaNon:    Second  floor  of  a  50,000  sq.j.  mulb-­‐tenant  office  

building,  Orlando,  FL.    •  The  space  must  accommodate  35  employees,  each  with  

specific  spabal  requirements.    •  Each  person  must  have  have  some  closed  storage  and  filing  

at  their  work  area.    •  The  circulabon  paoerns  and  layout  should  address  how  a  

future  expansion  could  occur.    •  Rest  rooms  are  provided  by  the  building  and  are  not  a  part  

of  the  space  required.  You  must  show  the  mulb-­‐tenant  corridor  allowing  access  to  restroom  areas  from  your  space.    

•  The  design  must  integrate  the  necessary  support  spaces  which  include  a  recepbon  area  and  lobby,  a  café,    five  conference  rooms  of  varying  sizes,    two  copy/print  areas,  etc.  totaling  approximately  2,300  sq.j.  

•  The  design  must  take  into  account  sustainability  issues  and  show  environmental  impact  considerabons.    

•  Siemens  is  known  for  including  an  employee  atmosphere  that  offers  a  “free  to  fly”  culture,  along  with  great  diversity  throughout  their  employees.  Siemens  would  like  this  office  to  be  open,  collaborabve,  funcbonal,  and  inspiring.  This  locabon  should  reflect  the  company’s  mission  of  being  innovators  to  creabng  a  more  sustainable  world.  Siemens  would  like  to  impress  the  longevity  of  their  company,  along  with  their  confidence  and  strength  in  this  industry.  They  would  like  to  “pilot”  this  office  in  being  a  client  and  partnering  think  house.  Their  new  Venture  Room  and  think  tank  called  “the  Hive”  will  have  state-­‐of-­‐  the-­‐art  technology  for  progressive  and  creabve  presentabons  as  they  work  with  clients  and  partners  within  the  United  States.

Course  Level:  Sophomore  Project  Descripbon:  Create  a  design  for  a  wine  and  cheese  shop  located  in  downtown  Minneapolis,  Minnesota.    Concept:  The  inspirabon  for  the  design  of  the  new  “Aged”  wine  and  cheese  shop  was  drawn  from  and  will  reflect  and  exemplify  the  up-­‐and-­‐coming  presence  of  the  city  it  is  located  in,  as  well  as  from  a  claret  wine  boole.  The  use  of  sleek,  linear  design  elements,  bold  colors,  and  industrial  elements  throughout  will  create  a  space  that  is  contemporary  and  trendy,  while  the  incorporabon  of  warm  neutrals  and  soj  curves  will  provide  contrast  and  generate  a  relaxing  atmosphere  that  encourages  guests  to  linger  and  visit  as  they  taste  a  glass  of  their  favorite  wine  and  a  sample  of  one  of  the  featured  arbsan  cheeses.

RETAIL  DESIGN  

DISPLAY  VIEW  –  WEST  WALL  

White  anbque  dressers  were  used  to  display  wine,  cheese,  and  other  merchandise.    A  large  two  sided  mirror  was  placed  between  displays  to  reflect  light  through  the  space  and  enhance  the  look  of  the  products.    The  anbque  dressers  offset  the  contemporary  design  while  developing  a  sense  that  the  shop  has  been  around  and  is  well  established.

Course  Level:  Freshman  Project  Descripbon:  Design  a  boubque  hotel  lobby  which  merges  the  Art  Deco  architecture  of  the  exterior  with  the  newly  remodeled  design  of  the  interior.    Concept:  The  young,  hip  Cincinnab  bicycle  scene  was  the  main  inspirabon  for  this  boubque  hotel  lobby  design.  The  design  builds  off  of  the  fun,  energebc  cycling  atmosphere  incorporabng  a  bright  color  paleoe  of  blues,  golds,  and  browns  inspired  by  nature  and  lively  paoerns  to  create  an  interior  full  of  life.  The  design  acknowledges  the  historic  art  deco  style  of  the  building  while  interprebng  that  style  on  the  interior  in  a  contemporary  fashion.  The  unique  art  installabon  and  furnishings  within  the  space  work  to  create  a  memorable  experience  for  any  visitor.  High-­‐end  yet  durable  finishes  were  chosen  to  ensure  that  the  lobby  maintains  its  high-­‐end  appearance  for  years  to  come.

COMPLETED  TABLE  21  

The  design  of  this  wooden  coffee  table  features  a  sleek  white  frame  mitered  together  with  45  degree  angles.    It  is  set  up  as  a  hollow  rectangle  allowing  for  light  to  flow  through  the  piece  which  keeps  its  appearance  light  and  offsets  the  heavy  linear  design  of  the  table.    The  top  and  two  closed  sides  are  composed  of  several  2”x2”  blocks  cut  at  different  heights  giving  the  piece  a  pixilated  quality.

This  metal  framed  mirror,  constructed  with  1-­‐1/2”  angle  iron,  was  designed  drawing  inspirabon  from  a  bicycle  frame.    Two  circles  were  cut  out  of  sheet  metal  and  spindles  were  developed  out  of  wire  to  create  the  wheel  shapes  and  a  local  bicycle  shop  donated  the  gears  that  make  up  the  wheel  hub.  The  frame  was  set  at  different  angles  mimicking  the  frame  of  a  bike  and  developing  a  sense  of  movement  within  the  piece.  

The  design  for  this  wood  frame  containing  a  painbng  of  mine  imitates  a  freestanding  chalkboard  stand.  The  enbre  piece  was  constructed  from  2x4s  ripped  down  to  1x3s  and  the  top  porbon  has  the  ability  to  swivel  360  degrees.  A  dark  stain  was  chosen  to  complement  the  painbng  and  accompany  the  old-­‐fashioned  design  of  the  piece.

LocaNon:  O'Hare  Internabonal  Airport,  Chicago,  IL    Project  DescripNon:  Design  a  small  quick-­‐serve  cafe  in  an  internabonal  airport  that  captures  the  life  of  the  city  it  is  located  in.    Concept:  The  picturesque  Chicago  cityscape  at  the  brink  of  dusk  was  inspirabon  for  this  cafe  design.  The  space  features  a  calming  paleoe  of  warm  grays,  old  Chicago  brick,  and  natural  wood  tones  sewng  weary  travelers  at  ease.  The  soothing  neutrals  are  contrasted  by  the  fire  red  accents  throughout  the  space  mimicking  the  magnificent  color  streams  which  flow  through  the  terminal,  along  with  the  vivacity  of  the  Chicago  night  life.  The  L  shape  layout  of  the  cafe  allows  for  quick,  convenient  service  for  busy  passersby.
