FINAL PROJECT kayleigh macumber_TRAVELER’S REFUGE

arranged like monk cells around a cloister, the hostel rooms are clustered around a courtyard that catches and temporarily stores water. solid walls with punched openings are the armature for the city - green screens filter light at the courtyard.

FINAL PROJECT brandon gicquel_THE LIBRARY

a library nestled into a series of vaulted spaces wraps around a stack of rooms for travelers. there is no clear hierarchy - one meanders through the spaces to discover, experience, maybe even get lost. the rooms are enclosed with translucent channel glass which emits a soft glow at night.

FINAL PROJECT kris smith_HOSTEL OF SHARED ARTS

the hostel caters to a community of artists and makers who want to connect with the local street-based culture of performers and crafts people. a generous set-back from the schaeffer hotel provides a space connecting two streets and an entry to the hostel. it holds a series of stepped platforms for outdoor events and workshops to be observed from a large balcony on an upper level. a more secluded second floor terrace on the opposite side of the building serves the hostel guests. balconies and the delicate lacework of the screen facade are subtle references to french quarter typologies.
