Proposal for new maintenance complex for Falling Water.

2. the enhanced current condition site plan shows an existing break in the wood line providing an implied connection between the friend house and the barn location

3. this proposed site plan shows how the regulating lines generated from both the friend house and the topography dictated the location and provided a base line from which to pursue my design solutions

4. the new maintenance building is situated on the north side of the friend house so that an outdoor working courtyard could be created that best takes advantage of the southern sun this layout also preserves the view sheds from the offices which will now be located on the southern side of the friend house while creating a new entry drive and service loop

5. 1 drive thru garage bay 2 upper level loading dock 3 material storage bays 4 ext work area/courtyard 5 new maintenance building 6 chemical storage bins 7 outdoor shower 8 friend house offices 9 future green house 10 experimental planting beds 11 ext office patios 12 foot path from parking lot 13 new entry road

6. standing seem steel panel roofing allows for a shallow slope roof without the environmental concerns of membrane layers the roofing material is continued onto the horizontal banding of the new building these bands create deep-set eaves shading the southern facade in the summer while allowing direct heat gain in the cooler months the grid pattern developed from the site study was used in conjunction with alternating grain plywood panels to bring a sense of tactility to the new structure

7. learning from the bank barn vernacular, the new structure allows direct access to the upper level from the north side the new maintenance building tucks into the topography for a more pedestrian scale the linear qualities of the new building help tie it to the existing friend house

8. east west section
