OXO InternationalNew York, New YorkLeroy Street Studio

This 14,500 office/showroom for the houseware producer OXO International is located at the Starrett Lehigh building on Manhattan’s West Side Highway. The majority of the space is devoted to open office, with city views as backdrop. Inserted into the open plan are two conference room pavilions constructed in brick and polygal, imitating the exterior wall and playing with perceptions of interior and exterior. Back of house (storage room and lab, additional meeting space, mailroom, etc.) is fronted by curtain which hides a wall with floor-to-ceiling storage. At the reception is a long display of backlit shelving framed with black mdf that extends beyond the entrance door and folds horizontally to become signage for the company in the public corridor beyond.

Mixed-Use BuildingAmesbury, MassachusettsWilliam Sloan Associates

This new building of 14 condominium units and 3 ground floor retail spaces is on the site of a burned-out building on the main street of Amesbury, a historic town on the north shore of Massachusetts. The project required multiple regulatory reviews and approvals, including special permit, historic district, design review, and site plan approvals. The projects was designed, approvals obtained, and building permit documents completed to allow construction to begin less than six months from our first meeting with the client. Completed in 2007.

Pozen Performance CenterMassachusetts College of Art, Boston, MassWilliam Sloan Associates

An alumna donation generated this renovation of an auditorium for the Studio for Interrelated Media (SIM Department) at the Mass College of Art. The renovation was intented not only for providing necessary technologies for a department of experimental media arts, but to create a venue for attracting an audience from the greater Boston community. To this end a new entrance sequence was designed which included new entrance doors and signage, handicap access, a ticket booth, a refurbished green room and gallery, and gallery corridors. The theater itself is a 4,000 sf space built in the early 1900’s in elaborate neoclassical style, with paneled walls and ceiling, and a plaster frieze replicating that of the Parthenon. Our approach was to treat the historic space not as a ‘black box’ but a ‘grey box,’ refurbishing details and and adding high tech but minimalist additions. Completed in 2005.

Spiral GazeboTuftonboro, New HampshireWilliam Sloan Associates

This variation on an octagonal form was derived from the shifting rooflines and multiple turned corners experienced along the walkway connecting the garage and house entrance. The ‘tail’ of the gazebo roof attaches itself to the house, creating an entrance canopy for both the house and gazebo. Gazebo completed in 2007.

‘Visible Space’Masters ThesisScott Cohen, George Baird, advisors

Each drawing for this series of exploratory drawings and models attempted a particular means to answer the question of how to call attention to, or ‘outline’ space in three dimensions. Outlines and lines were created by the edges of planes, by folds, and by the intersections of planes. Segments of space were articulated through the interruptions of planes. Volumes of spaces within space were evoked by the intersection of volumes.

Studio Building, Cambridge, Mass Jim Williamson, critic

In this project a sculpture of complex curves is translated to a building of planar geometry. Situated in the middle of a deep block that offers no clear building front, the building provides studio spaces, a gallery, café, meeting room, and outdoor sculpture garden for the Bunting Institute, a residential fellowship program for mid-career female professionals. Free-standing masonry piers support the volumes of studio spaces, each oriented according to a vista, alignment, or other local concern. The piers provide the spine from which floorplates torque from one level to the next, allowing for the different preferences in orientation that happen at each level, and for openings above so that each studio is skylit.

Multi-family Housing, Roxbury Massachusetts Scott Cohen, critic

Critical analysis of platting patterns in Boston’s Back Bay generated the focus for this housing project. With 35% open space at the interior of the block, the rowhouse lots are lit only front and back, A more checkerboard-like configuration of the same density, allows for a more picturesque park-like open space while also providing the living room of each apartment with windows in two orientations. Along the length of the site, the elevation differs front to back by as much as a storey, and while the front faces a boulevard, the backis of neighborhood scale. Two of the three building types that compose the project are used at both front and back, but two-storey penthouses add elevation to those only at front.
