A majority of the design stemmed from the idea of a building that steps back in order to achieve better daylighting throughout the building. The original idea is shown to the left.

The image to the right shows our initial desire to create some sort of interesting entrance on the southeast corner(nearest to Curtin Road) of the building.

The Bio Behavioral Health Building at Penn State is a good example of a renovation project that connects the old and new architecture of the building.

The Primary School for Sciences and Biodiversity showcases the step-back feature we wished to achieve in our original design. It also provided a good example of a living roof, something that is included in our design.

Kyung Hee Cyber University ACA Peace Building is another example of a renovation project, where the architect managed to mend the old and new designs quite well.

The Millennium Science Complex at Penn State partially influence the cantilevered section of our design. It is also a LEED certified building.

A building with a stepping elevation was the original inspiration

for the design.

Some sort of grand entrance on the southeast

corner of the building was desired.

This image displays how we incorporated the

stepping elevation and intriguing southeast

entrance.

Different windows were used in an attempt to

distinguish a difference between the old and new

facades.

Supply air ductwork throughout the building. (Return Air has similar layout.)

The use of a VAV Reheat system with and economizer cycle allows the owner to have plenty of control over the building’s mechanical system operation. Through this control, energy consumption can be greatly reduced and thermal comfort will always be attainable.

Solar Study of Labs

The spaces that were most in need of additionaldaylighting were the lab areas on the north wall. Thereason being because they don’t get any direct sun light.The images to the left show a typical lab space beforeand after the addition of a skylight. With the skylightadded, the average illuminance of the space went from35-40 FC to about 100 FC from daylight alone. Thiswould allow the occupants to turn off some , if not all ofthe electrical light in the space and there would still beadequate light.

Without Skylight: Avg. E = 35 FC

With Skylight: Avg. E = 100 FC

Due to the large amount of glass receiving direct sunlight, wedetermined a shading system was required. We knew we didn’twant any bulky louvers or overhangs hanging off of our buildingand wanted to preserve the view even when shaded, so automatedshades weren’t an option either. We settled on an Electrochromaticglass system that would both decrease the solar heat gain and lightcoming into the space and preserve the view. The implications ofthis system go beyond the interior to the exterior as well, which isshown in the renders below.
