    Statement of Qualifications University Extension Seismic Correction University of California, Los Angeles Project Number: 948472.01 July 15, 2013 BARTON PHELPS & ASSOCIATES Architects and Planners University Extension Seismic Correction University of California, Los Angeles: Letter of Introduction July 15, 2013 Jeffrey Averill, AIA, Campus Architect UCLA Capital Programs 1060 Veteran Avenue, 1st Floor Dear Mr. Averill: We are pleased to present our team’s qualifications to assist Capital Programs with the University Extension project. We’ve reviewed project information and visited the building and site. We’ve reviewed the preliminary structural study with its author, Nabih Youssef, our structural engineer, and been briefed on project implications for constructability, collateral damage, and architectural resolution. We’ve also refreshed our understanding of the later work of the prolific Los Angeles architect, A. Quincy Jones with whom I had the privilege of teaching at the USC School of Architecture before becoming a member of the faculty at UCLA. We sense the design challenges posed by this project in exterior composition and building identity, in orientation and patterns of use and movement both inside and out, and in materiality and construction as well as those of cost, accessibility and sustainability, But we also concur with Capital Programs’ perception that the building and site hold potential for significant improvements in functional performance and experiential quality for UNEX users and for the building’s prominence and interaction in the Westwood streetscape.. Over the last thirty years much of our firm’s design work has been for new educational facilities and digital information-based learning / working environments and we have responded to constantly changing operational and construction requirements in these kinds of projects.
