Images of models and allocation analysis

The whole architecture school consists of two parts: main building and student building.

Allocation Analysis

1. Student spaces seperated from staff spaces
2. lecture, library,gallery--should be between student and staff 
3. Gallery at the centre part of building--most obvious location, others surrounding the gallery
4. Interrelationship of staff rooms:(research for academic staff)-->(office of academic staff)-->(meeting room for staff)-->(office of general staff)
5. Physical level follow level of class(e.g. studio 1 for senior students is higher)

The architects didn’t alter the building’s exterior, but radically changed the interior by introducing a courtyard “garden room” that brings light into the middle of the floor plate and a green landscape into the center of the office. A 15-acre site on the Hudson River, ARO succeeded in creating a storm-resistant structure (it survived Hurricane Sandy) that is also light on the landscape. More than 2,000 marble sculptures were restored, and unsympathetic alterations made over the years to bronze windows, grilles, and doors were undone.  The result is a radical reinterpretation of what many considered a throw-away building. Sixty-five solar panels on the corrugated steel roof help offset electrical use from a nearby education center. Secure storage for up to 64 kayaks or canoes, a changing room, and a secondary storage area are enclosed by aluminum-bar grating panels. There is a high level of professionalism from everyone that worked on this project; everyone was a strong player, from the craftsmen to the design team. This project shows the potential for the reuse of the growing catalog of mid- and late-20th-century low-rise buildings throughout the country, and demonstrates how an interior transformation can be a more sustainable approach than demolition and new construction. With its simple wooden deck, the structure reads as elegant, and doesn’t interrupt the scenic views of the river and Highlands. The most successful aspect of the project is the one that is most obvious to the eye: This brilliant Beaux-Arts masterpiece by Carrere and Hastings looks as gorgeous now as it did when it was completed in 1911. It’s a more joyful, open, airy, and bright space, and the way we all interact is completely different. This remarkable kayak pavilion … celebrates simplicity, craft, resilience, and advanced resource-efficiency.  A century of grime, wear and tear, and poor restoration work has been swept away by the great work of our architects and by all the craftsmen and women who labored with such devotion on the project.
