ARCH 400 • 2002 STUDIO OUTCOMES     New Center@Yesler Terrace Design Studio         SELECTED STUDENT WORK Linda Siauw Incorporate the existing gym into the new center as a recall of history This scheme is organized around three distinct social spaces. The most private one is to the West, an outdoor plaza that serves the Great Hall. It is formed by the demolition of part of the existing classrooms, but protected by a narrow band of rooms along Yesler. A second space is an interior courtyard that brings light into the new building to the East. The most public social space is the roofed area that joins the new and the old buildings and serves as a focal point along the Blue Ring. These spaces, along with the fine grain of the building and terraced outdooor areas give the project a village-like quality.     Josh Hutchinson Demolish the existing gym; emphasize Blue Ring connection and open space , By positioning the building below grade along Yesler, a plaza is created with fanciful light scoops, which can be done in collaboration with a public artist. A drop-off in topography to the south creates an at-grade relationship on the south side of the building, where operable windows and overhead doors connect sunny interior spaces with gardens   Adam Peltier Demolish the existing gym; emphasize Blue Ring connection and open space , Another below-grade scheme is shaped by hydrology and the intention to make water run-off a visible esthetic element. Water is collected in seat-high troughs that run north to south, encircling the gym, and leading into cisterns. Daylight is brought into the building through a variety of skylights, clerestories, and glazing along the southern facade.   Jon Fukutomi Incorporate the existing gym into the new center as a recall of history   A large transparent entry is in dialogue with the old masonry gym, forming an asymmetrical plaza at the foot of Broadway. Unglazed concrete elements with a water feature are used to link the new building with old and with different programmatic elements. Terraces to the south maximize daylight and views.   Nora Ng Incorporate the existing gym into the new center as a recall of history     In this scheme, the old gym is converted into a farmers market, supplied in part by residents who farm the pea patches that are terraced around the building. A wood frame trellis extends out of the new building to link it with the old gym, as well as with the open space to the south. The new building steps down toward the south to minimize the mass of the new gym. Nathan Gregory Incorporate the existing gym into the new center as a recall of history   The old gym and wings of the new building are joined by a dynamically sloping glazed roof. This roof also shelters an outdoor stage and social space between the new and old buildings. The foundations of the classroom portion of the old community center are reused for gardens.     Arnold Ramoso Incorporate the existing gym into the new center as a recall of history       An adaptive reuse of the old gym adds a balcony and opens up the lower flower to create an Exhibition Hall for displaying and studying local history--an addition to the community center program that is justified by the building's strategic location on the Blue Ring. The "warts" on the existing gym as repeated as a motif to create a joint between the East and West Wings of the New Center. The West Wing opens onto a "Space of Protest" or an outdoor gathering and recreation area.       Patrick Kwo Demolish the existing gym; emphasize Blue Ring connection and open space     A half rotunda forms a terminus to Broadway and serves as a large interior social space along the Blue Rign. This space links the East Wing (quiet activities) and West Wing (noisy activities) of the community center.
