"The Sparks Medical Office Building and Pharmacy won the AIA Merit Award for an Unbuilt Project at the AIA Columbus awards ceremony. The pharmacy will be the first building designed in London in two decades. It will include a pharmacy and medical clinics and will bridge the gap between downtown London and nearby commercial and residential areas in the Madison County community."
Lawnwood Stadium Administrative Building (Unbuilt), St. Lucie County, Fla., by Edlund, Dritenbas, Binkley Architects & Associates PA
For this major renovation and addition to a stadium ticket office, the architects plan to construct administration offices above the existing structure. This “air-right” approach eliminates the need for stormwater engineering that would have been required for a new, freestanding building on this impervious site. In addition, the design adds a vertical and visual gateway identity for the stadium entry and an elevated view of the 85-acre park for management staff. It also offers a skybox stadium view from the conference room area. “The addition is a very creative and sensitive solution that adds to the whole facility while segregating the private office areas,” the jury enthused. “The overall design is well sited and properly scaled. It adds elegance to a really simple stadium.”Rendering courtesy Huddleston Art Studio.
Granfield Residence (Unbuilt), Jensen Beach, Fla., by Granfield Granfield Architects
The owner desired expansive panoramic and sunset views across Savannah State Park Fresh Water Lagoon. To capture these views as well as breezes on the setback, restrictive site, the architect placed the main living spaces on the third level. Three-story wall planes of 12-inch masonry units with a shell-tabby texture anchor the 24-foot “double-wide” structure. “Pop-outs” of operable glass and lapped siding provide views to the south and east, while the stair tower floods the center of the residence with light and offers views during one’s vertical journey. The jury called the project, “A unique concept. Very simple plan with wonderful spatial sequences and orientation of the interior spaces to the surrounding environment.”
American Exposition Pavilion, by John Burgee Architect
As lead Architectural Designer, my concept was to bring people to the top floor of this exhibition building via a glass enclosed elevator which would give the visitor wonderful views of the New York City Public Library. This elevator is the front door. From there the visitor would descend down a series of ramps back out to the next-to-busiest street corner in NYC. The facade itself would be composed of electricallly controlled transluscent glass panels providing a surface for backlit street presentations at night. The panels would themselves be coriographed to alllow objects to appear to float around the facade. Inside there would be a virtual reality stations which would emerse the visitor in the realm of the displays.
