CENTER FOR SUSTAINABLE CONSTRUCTION
Baltimore, Maryland graduate submission - studio project
parti align and infiltrate
The center for sustainable construction is an extension of the existing architectural building at a state university campus. By cutting and filling, the design of the new structure addresses site grading and topographic issues. Bio-retention cells are introduced to address flood water run off before slowly connecting to the existing Herring run stream. The design is approximately a 60,000sf space that houses major programs such as a 6000sf auditorium, 4000sf residential for students and visiting lecturers, and 14,000sf of studio space and a 2000sf student lounge; which is the focal point of the design as it is elevated above the flood plain held by concrete column.
