Alternative:Make the Construction Annex 3 Stories Tall with Varying Roof Heights
Additional information
This alternative involves making the architecture 3 stories tall. It has differing roof heights and is construction from a combination of brick, steel, and glass.
Make the Construction Annex 3 Stories Tall with Varying Roof Heights
Alternative:Make the Construction Annex 2 Stories Tall with Flat Roof
Additional information
This alternative involves making the architecture 3 stories tall. It has a single roof height and is construction from a combination of steel and glass only, no brick.
Buildings are first and foremost meant to serve in favor of people. Architecture is a public object meaning that there is no free choice as to whether the public may or may not observe it. The architect does not create their own public so the design has to be appealing to the public at large.
In order to measure ?character as a public object? criterion survey the general public by showing them the proposed design alternatives and asking which design they prefer.
Goal:Continuity with the Decorative Arts and Vernacular
Unit
# of shared attributes with surrounding buildings
Criterion
Even the aesthetic in a work of architecture is simply to ?look right? in its context. Vernacular architecture tends to evolve over time to reflect the environmental, cultural, technological, and historical context in which it exists. To quantify his criteria compare its size and physical attributes to the size and physical attributes (material, mass, proportion, line, etc) of other buildings nearby. If the structure compares favorable to these, then the building should be evaluated positively.
Continuity with the Decorative Arts and Vernacular
Goal:Aesthetic Harmony
Unit
score 1-3 for each design element (7 elements means 21 potential points). 1 being poor execution of design elements, 2 being fair execution of design elements, and 3 being good execution of design element.
Criterion
Seven principles encompass an interesting design: balance, rhythm, emphasis, proportion and scale, movement, contrast, unity.
1 point for 55% to 74% building re-use, 2 points for 75%-94% building resuse and 3 points for 95%-100% building reuse
Criterion
Consider reusing, previously-occupied building structures, envelopes, and other elements to extend the lifecycle of existing building stock, conserve resources, reduce waste and environmental impacts of new buildings as they relate to materials manufacturing and transport.
10%, based on cost, of the total materials value. 10-19%=1 point, 20%+=2 points
Criterion
Use building materials and products that are extracted and manufactured within the region. Use building materials that have been harvested, recovered or extracted as well as manufactured within a specified distance of the project site.
