L U C A SG O L D B A C HSELECTED WORK

I am interested in studying the intersections of psychology, mood and space, and craft-based design. My design work utilizes simple and even unglamorous materials very strategically. In doing so I attempt to unearth their potential and describe the ways that they are connected and conceived theoretically. Models, prototypes and perspectival sketching allows for a greater understanding of experiential possibilities in my designed spaces.

I explore spaces through sketching. I find that I unearth details and qualities that I might not otherwise have found—qualities of light, imperfections, use patterns and the ways that time manifests itself. Slowing down and sketching allows for discovery. The power and amount of information that a few lines on a page can carry are truly astonishing in architecture.

With municipalities facing budget cuts, limiting their community and cultural resources, community centers will serve to supplement the essential needs of semi-urban and urban communities. Space to relax, enjoy nature, and interact with one’s neighbors are essential in building strong communities.

The Robert Crown Center serves the Evanston community by providing space for community gathering and recreation in a medium density semi-urban environment. Designed to turn away and in from the regular blocks of southwest Evanston, the design creates a series of berms, landforms, and extrusions that create an oasis for the community. Structural ribs welcome community members in from the street and continue throughout the building marking social spaces where all generations of Evanston residents can come together, share stories, and knowledge.

The two minor wings of the center provide athletic facilities set below street level to minimize their impact on neighborhood sight-lines. Along with sculpture alleys, water retention lagoons, and open lawns, a “sled hill” with amphitheater create a community space for watching movies, sunbathing, and coming together.

A plywood ‘crag’ creates spaces for hanging-out, private conversations, waiting for practice to be over, and grabbing a bite to eat from the community cafe. The materials are simple, adaptable, and take on the character of their use and abuse. Circulation funnels to the center of the site, to the cafe, the amphitheater, and the ornamental stair.

The Chicago river has long been a conduit of industry and not a space for recreation and engagement. 15 acres to the southwest of goose island bear the negative environmental affects of Chicago’s industrial past and is an area ripe for sustainable development. The design calls for approximately 30% of the site to be given back to the Heath of the river through wetland riparian zones.

A network of paths, boardwalks, and park structures engage the community proper And of the surrounding neigh-borhood with the river’s edge. This engagement is given presence over the commercial and residential aspects of the site and in turn contribute to their density along the western edge.

The master plan creates a range of mixed use blocks intended to overlap and integrate different communities. The block designed here centers around a bio swale and commercial zone that frames views of the widened river and city beyond.

FIELDHOUSESFieldhouse’s are the Burnham plan conceived structures that pre-date community center’s of today. They are emblematic of the many community spaces and neighborhoods that have developed identities around their cherished urban green spaces. They provide space for community gatherings, practicing healthy lifestyles, and provide a platform for education, cultural events and shared tasks. The park is reconceived as a place of purification and a return to ‘natural’ processes of filtration. Hovering above bio-remedial zones these Fieldhouse’s provide the same functions and tasks to suit a dense modern development.

The Burnham plan and the Army Corps of Engineers were both responsible for the current state of the Chicago River—neglected and marginalized. Under the Burnham plan industrial corridors were set up along the Chicago River, which denied Chicagoans access to the river and made way for harmful pollutants to infiltrate the city’s hydraulic cycle. Shipping technologies and the infrastructure set in motion a course of events that separated Chicago from its river.

The Army Corps of Engineers walled flood planes and dramatically changed the hydrology of most American Rivers. In an effort to prevent the natural ebb and flow of the river they created and passed off those flooding conditions down the line to unprotected areas. Both of these interventions, the Burnham Plan and the Army Corps of Engineers made way for a marginalization of the river’s ecology and allowed for invasive species such as Asian carp to infiltrate the Great Lakes region.

If there is a hydrological divide between the Mississippi river basin and the great lakes/Chicago river, the Chicago River must go through a drastic shift in ecology. The quality attribution of value to the river and the physical well being of the river must be re-imaged and re-mediated by the people of Chicago.

The river’s edge conditions must be rethought to bring people, rather than industry to the river’s edge. By adding diverse mixed use, residential areas intermixed with restored wetlands and marshes at the river’s edge, the people of Chicago will confront the river in ways the city has not yet allowed. Bio-diverse water filtering wetlands and building systems expose passive and active water purification returning it clean to the river-lake-rain cycle. Communities confront use of resources and are active participants in the remediation of the health of the river. Instead of a pathway for industry and commerce the river will be restored to the riparian artery that delivers fresh water and fresh water species.

River Ecology Rowing Center intersects new building technologies, advanced sporting equipment, passive ecological science, and diverse intermingling of communities of fish and people staging reassessment of the Chicago River. Can the river be a receptacle for pollutants when communities live near and even on the conduit? Experience and engagement, can change habits and fate of Chicago’s River. River Ecology Rowing Center engages the river as a piece of artificial coral, filters pollutants, intersects species, and creates new paradigms for post-industrial urban America.

An island for activity and life with new paradigms of use, engagement, and health of resident species both locally and globally create a 21st century plan for the Chicago River. River Ecology Rowing Center creates biodiversity on the once marginalized riparian landscape. No longer is the Chicago River a sewer or backyard for industry but a thriving cultural epicenter of community engagement and an artery of health, and life.

Rowing, utilizing ultrathin shells and intuitive physics, occupies the rivers of the new and old world, in cacophony of health, strength, and technology.

Historically registered buildings serve to remind us of different times remembered for all their good in a nostalgic haze. Often, these buildings do not function to the building and cultural standards of today. The Uptown Theater is a 4,000+ seat single screen movie theater that has been closed for more than 30 years and is in structurally defunct.

The design of the Uptown Brew & View integrates a new program into the site while maintaining the existing use—a movie theater. The design creates a gradient from historic lobbies to remain on site, to microbrewery and bar, to social theater spaces and then fi nally to a traditional quiet theater.

The way we seek entertainment has changed and the Uptown Brew&View adapts the traditional archetype of the theater to fi t the social entertainment culture of today.

The design process was informed by the site’s adjacency to a cemetery across the street. While the cemetery has grown the theater has experienced a decrease in both value and use. To make the site culturally relevant again and to help in the efforts to rejuvenate the Uptown entertainment district, a microbrewery was chosen to help create community identity.

To demonstrate the growth and use of the building over time the materials in the spaces were designed to undergo change. For instance, the main circulation stairs are coated with many thin layers of automotive paint that will wear over time revealing the building’s use while creating a faux marble referencing the historic lobby.

In order to create a more social theater a ‘projection hallway’ was created behind the movie screens. This hallway allows for quick circulation back to the brewery spaces and the experience changes instant by instant as the movies that are projected onto its walls encounter plot changes.

Graphic exercises, developing technique, and exploring modes of representation is an essential part of design practice. The affective and atmospheric performance of a design are as important as the technical performance of the building. Graphic representation and exploration allows for those qualitative attributes to be integrated into the art of building making.

Study of architects, artists, and graphic designers contribute to a visual knowledge that are in the architect’s arsenal. The designs displayed demonstrate both loose and controlled media and how they can describe the formal language and atmospheric quality of existing and proposed spaces.

Assigned a top 25 Architecture and Interior Design Firm, this interior architecture studio was to challenged to design a new branch offi ce. Brand identity, notions of authenticity and refl ecting corporate culture were essential parts of our study. This offi ce takes Gensler’s global brand and reinterprets it in a regional way.

My concept rethought elements of a traditional American home into an offi ce setting. Iconographic elements of the house (central stair, kitchen island, public/private space) were designed to be community spaces. The scale of these icons are disproportionately large to refl ect the size of the “family”, as well as, the quirky and counter-cultural spirit of the Emerald City, Seattle.

A full construction document set and specifi cations book were produced for this project including mechanical, FF&E, and egress plans. All materials specifi ed were local and sustainable, for anticipated LEED certifi cation.

The concept for of the desks were salvaged doors and windows supported by sawhorses with plexiglass to provide a smooth work surface.

The fi xtures are second-hand, and refurbished with sustainable fabrics and sealants. Floor surfaces are cork and FSC-certifi ed Douglas Fir, providing both acoustic benefi ts and warmth to the space. This design illustrates the future of a collaborative offi ce culture with a program the parallels its organizational values of collaboration and Gensler’s industry leading design.

26 Hackstown Street is a private residence with extraordinary views of downtown Pittsburgh framed by a church just down hill. There is a connection to the city’s dynamic landscape on one side, and an intimate courtyard that separates the house from the street on the other.

The project is a traditional Pittsburgh ‘upside-down’ house with the entertaining spaces on the lower floors. The three adjoining vertical volumes employ a range of materials and textures referencing conceptual elements that represent the spirit of Pittsburgh: garden, industrial, and formal.

Residents turn from the street onto an entry terrace and enter into the “garden” volume set between a street side courtyard and the dramatic landscape of the City of Pittsburgh. The scale relationships continue to fluctuate between the human and urban scale throughout the structure.

The Miami University design-build studio, two weeks were spent experiencing the diverse cultures and architectural landscape of Ghana. The remaining time was spent designing and building in the village of Obrafo-Odumase.

Over the course of twenty-two days, the group of nineteen students, eight Ghanaian craftsmen, and one professor constructed a classroom and instructor’s offi ce. This classroom design features a passive ventilation system and a truss constructed on site. The materials were all harvested and crafted on site. The project was a community effort and was approved by village elders as a part of the community’s development goals.
