| DESIGN NAME: Intertwine PRIMARY FUNCTION: Transit Nexus INSPIRATION: Brno's rich history as a royal stronghold and hub of Moravian nobility, alongside its turbulent 20th century past and current role as a bustling regional center, emphasizes the critical necessity of a robust transit system. Such a system would reflect Brno's resilience, connectivity, and dedication to progress, aiding residents and visitors in navigating its diverse cultural landscape. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Brno's transit system links the city center with trolleybuses, trams, and trains. Stops are strategically placed near amenities, enhancing convenience. The new gateway railway line prioritizes sustainability and integrates seamlessly with the built and natural environment. It features a central concourse plaza, tracks, a museum, a cycling track, and a city viewpoint, fostering vibrant centers and a sense of community. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Brno's station prioritizes functionality, boasting efficient vehicular flow and seamless tram connections. Its open concourse encourages community engagement, with security facilities, market pods, amphitheaters, and a historical museum. Pedestrian friendly bridges facilitate connectivity and social interaction, offering panoramic views. The design aims for a pleasant, safe, and interactive space, addressing structural concerns with durable materials and prefabrication techniques. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project was designed for the Historical city of Brno, Czech Republic. This design project was in Savannah, Georgia from September 2021 to June 2022. |
PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: Utilizing cutting edge technology, the production and realization process involves expertise in AutoCAD for precision, coupled with advanced 3D modeling in SketchUp, Rhino, Grasshopper, and 3ds Max. The final touch comes with realistic rendering using Lumion and Corona and enhanced visuals through Photoshop. SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: Site specifications: Width 302.8mm x Depth 339.6mm x Height 40mm Area: 102,852.20 sq.m. Track Area: 47,830.42 sq.m. Platforms: 7 (elevated 5.5m above ground) Construction materials: Precast concrete, steel pipe frame, ETFE panels, composite columns, and lightweight walls. Innovative Features: Morphogenic columns, transparent roof coverings, skylight openings, solar panels for sustainability, electric bike trails connecting waterfront and plaza areas, third level trails with restaurants, and museum displays. TAGS: Public Spaces, Social Interaction, Connectivity, Urban Fabric, Weaving, Transit System, Railway Station, Transportation Hub, Sustainable RESEARCH ABSTRACT: As part of an M.Arch thesis, the project delves into the pivotal link between urban transit and humancentric design. It investigates how mass transit rail systems can integrate harmoniously into urban settings, promoting social interaction and addressing commuter requirements. Through understanding this interplay, the project aims to craft welcoming and accessible urban spaces. CHALLENGE: Designing transit systems presents challenges in scalability and human connectivity. Achieving seamless integration between land and waterfront areas while prioritizing sustainability and human centric design enhances the daily commuting experience. Balancing the complexity of the macro scale infrastructure with the harmony of the micro scale urban fabric ensures a holistic and user riendly transit system.

NAME: Savannah College of Art and Design PROFILE: The Savannah College of Art and Design was founded in 1978 by Richard G. Rowan, Paula Wallace, May L. Poetter and Paul E. Poetter to provide college degree programs not previously available in southeast Georgia and to create a specialized professional art college to attract students from throughout the United States and abroad. The curriculum was established with dual goals of excellent arts education and effective career preparation for students. Today, with multiple locations and online distance education offerings, SCAD continues to assiduously adhere to these goals. SCAD was legally incorporated in the state of Georgia Sept. 29, 1978. A board of trustees was established, and the search was begun for a competent faculty and an appropriate facility. In the spring of 1979, SCAD purchased and renovated the Savannah Volunteer Guard Armory to serve as the first classroom and administration building. The historic significance of the 1892 structure was recognized by its nomination for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places. Named Poetter Hall in honor of two of the founders, the building remains in active use by SCAD today. SCAD prepares talented students for creative professions through engaged teaching and learning in a positively oriented university environment. SCAD is a private, nonprofit institution accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges to award baccalaureate and masters degrees. The university confers Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Fine Arts, Master of Architecture, Master of Arts, and Master of Fine Arts. The professional M.Arch.
