Submission Example 2018 Award Winning Entry by 4240 SUBMISSION EXAMPLE 2018 AWARD WINNING ENTRY BY 4240 ARCHITECTURE All entries must be anonymous. Entrants’ names and/or firm names should not appear anywhere in the portfolio The Boundary at Moreland Village Palmetto Bluff, South Carolina Architecture - Commercial / Civic / Institutional Complete 2017 17,780 sf The Boundary Nestled between the village green, wetland preserve, and Old Moreland Road, The Boundary condenses the needs of several buildings into one. This consolidation of program was driven by the desire to touch the land lightly, preserving the natural environment and connecting people to the out of doors. The classical-inspired cross-axial plan organizes the building and adjacent outdoor spaces into four components with each wing of the building serving a distinct purpose. Views of the marsh were paramount and dictated the location of the restaurant wing and pool terraces. Lowcountry architecture is a clear derivation of American colonial architecture, evolved over the past three centuries to address this unique southern region and microclimate. Inspired by the Lowcountry architectural aesthetic, the roof forms maintain a simple, classical aesthetic that are reflective of the spaces within. The buildings directly respond to the subtropical climate with one- room wide buildings elevated above the flood plane to capture breezes and views. Expansive porches with deep overhangs provide shelter from the sun and inclement weather. Exposed rafter tails, vertically proportioned windows, cypress wood board on board vertical siding, plank railings and tabby walls give the building a unique and individual character, expressive of craft with materials faithful to the region. Interiors were designed with a fresh contemporary aesthetic - exposed wood timbers, penny-gap plank siding, vaulted ceilings with open trusses and reclaimed wide plank hard wood floors to instill a sense of withstanding time, while expressing the simplicity and quality found in more contemporary lifestyles and living.

  • Concrete Construction. Case Study
    Concrete Construction. Case Study 1 Project: Tropicana Field Renovations Specific: Concrete entry cylinder at East Main Entry Project Scope: Add approx. 350,000sf of space (retail, food service, concourse, office) to the existing ‘Thunderdome’. The existing tensegrity structure is 225’ tall at its peak and is approximately 750’ in diameter. Due the nature of the round structure, drawing elevations could pose a serious challenge if drawn by conventional orthographic projection methods. With the use of AutoCadLT, the additions were drawn with extruded lines and 3dfaces to produce a 3d model of the entire structure. This way, the model could be rotated to any desired elevation to create the drawings. This method proved to be a significant time and cost saving tool for the project. And inevitably, as anticipated in the beginning, just before the submission deadline, we realized that we needed another angle of elevation because there was a loading dock that was not showing up well enough on the first- decided 5 elevations. With the 3d model completed, the 6th elevation was no problem at all and the model was simply rotated to the needed angle, a 2d file was exported, cleaned up, notes added, and we had our missing elevation in a short amount of time. 2 East Elevation Showing the Entry cylinder is made of cast in place concrete and structurally served as a later load anchor for the project. At a height of 90’ and a diameter of 71’, the space serves as the main entry for the indoor ball park. It is a single space inside and has a series of glazed slots to allow for specific views out to the entry walkway.

INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image.
