A 2014 renovation of the 140-acre Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute in Williamstown, MA, includes reservoirs, low-flow plumbing fixtures, site irrigation, and a cooling tower. Gensler served as executive architect and sustainability consultant for a series of projects in collaboration with Tadao Ando Architect & Associates (design architect for the Clark Center and Stone Hill Center), Selldorf Diane Hoskins FAIA, IIDA, Co-CEO Architects (renovation architect for the Museum and Manton buildings), Reed Hilderbrand (landscape), and Cooper, Robertson & Partners (master planning).

  • 1 CLOTHING and ARCHITECTURE: More in Common
    CLOTHING AND ARCHITECTURE: more in common Han Xu 20107500 1 Clothing and buildings are becoming even more alike. Both have typically served the bodies that inhabit them by maintaining environmental control and by presenting a codified exterior to the world. But now there are new kinds of physical resemblances between architecture and clothing. Various kinds of textiles and weaves are now being exploited in landscape and building design. Vast landscapes are shaped by geotexiles while building structures and envelopes exploit tensile, textile strategies, enabled by new lighter and more flexible materials and by the assistance of digital simulations. As well as becoming lighter, buildings are also becoming increasingly more temporary. The lifespans of buildings are ever shorter as their inhabitants become more transient, moving frequently from city to city. Evidence of this nomadic lifestyle can be found in fashion. Clothing, the portable envelope worn on the body, now provides some of the functions formerly associated with architecture. Designers are exploring the possibilities of integrated lights in clothes, pockets to carry portable electronic devices as well as soft electronic devices that are embedded in technical fabrics. Through other technological advances in textiles, specialized suits offer climatic control in very extreme environments. Yet other designers are integrating structure into clothing or even reviving the primitive model of a portable textile shelter. Many designers switch between fashion and architecture. Even the manufacturing processes for clothing and architecture can now be very much alike as new, highly sophisticated weaving robots automize the manufacturing process for articles of fashion or for components of buildings. In Gottfried Semper’s 1860 Style in the Technical and Tectonic Arts, we find a creation myth for today’s textile buildings and architectural suits.

  • Heating Systems That Maximize Efficiency November 2009 with Cooler Months Ahead, a Facility Manager's Thoughts Tend to Turn to Heating Systems
    Heating Systems That Maximize Efficiency November 2009 With cooler months ahead, a facility manager's thoughts tend to turn to heating systems. While you won't be able to quickly tack on a heat recovery component to your current systems, it is useful to know where energy—typically heat energy—is lost. This article begins with a description of a standard heat recovery system, after which we'll address some basic heat recovery strategies. We'll finish up with a description of cogeneration, which would typically take place in power plants, but also sometimes in very large facilities. Heat Recovery Systems Many buildings generate excess heat within their interior areas, even in the winter. In most buildings, this heat is removed from the building because it is not transferable to the areas that require heating. Therefore, a large office building may require simultaneous heating and cooling. Heat is required to offset the heat loss through the exterior walls and roof, while interior cooling may be necessary to remove excess heat from people, equipment, and lights. In many buildings, the internal heat gain from lights may be sufficient to heat the building through most of the winter season. Thus, the principal heating or cooling requirements are due to heat losses or gains through the exterior walls of the buildings and through infiltration of outside air. A heat recovery system extracts excess interior heat and transfers it to areas of the building that require heat. Such systems are not widely used because they are expensive to install. However, the long-term savings dividends may make the investment worthwhile.

The incorporation of solid desiccant wheel for improved dehumidification and air quality control would contribute to energy saving in air conditioning system through waste heat recovery for regeneration. In the present work, a novel recirculated regenerative rotary desiccant wheel-assisted dehumidification system was proposed. The energy and exergy performances of the system under variable working conditions were quantitatively studied based on experimental tests. The dehumidification effectiveness, dehumidification performance coefficient (DCOP), sensible energy ratio and coefficient of performance (COP) were introduced as key energetic indicators. The effects of air bypass ratio (50% - 85%), process air temperature (28 ℃ - 40 ℃), relative humidity of process air (60%RH - 80%RH) and regeneration air temperature (130 ℃ - 150 ℃) on the system performances were obtained.

  • (Purple Masque) Scenic Design Checklist
    SECOND STAGE (PURPLE MASQUE) SCENIC DESIGN CHECKLIST MANDATORY ATTENDANCE AT: All director/designer meetings Minimum of two meetings with Faculty Scenic Designer: one prior to preliminary deadline, and one prior to final deadline. All production meetings Minimum of one run-through rehearsal prior to crew watch Crew watch All technical and dress rehearsals Strike Any conflicts with attending the above meetings/rehearsals must be cleared ahead of time with the faculty designer and the director. IMPORTANT INFORMATION There is a very limited time frame for installation and painting of scenery in the masque. Therefore, it is extremely important for you to be organized prior to your load in date. Some things to consider: You will be working late nights/weekends during load in and tech, so plan ahead to have papers/homework/studying done ahead of time. “I had to write a paper so the set didn’t get done until opening night” is not a valid excuse. EVERYTHING needs to be built prior to load in. It is best if you can paint pieces beforehand, also. If you are building a large unit, make sure it will fit through all doors. Large units in pieces should be “dry fit” in the scene shop to make sure they assemble as planned. Make sure you arrange for help ahead of time. People will be more willing to assist you if they know a week or two beforehand. This is not just your show. Having the scenery unfinished not only affects the actors, but the lighting and costume designs as well. ROUGH DESIGNS Rough designs will include research image boards of conceptual, architectural and detail inspirations for the set.
