Info

Rochdale Village Library is a single story, 7.500 sqf. Building constructed in 1969. Queens Library is enlarging the existing Adult Learning Center with new 1.700 sqf. Addition to provide classroom space, a staff room, individual learning stations, and storage. The site is on the periphery of RochdaleVillage along 137 th Avenue in Jamaica. The 1969 existing building is “y” shaped, with a hipped Howard Johnson-styled roof with a spire in the center. Our trapezoidal shaped addition extends in plan the area of the existing ALC to the east and north up to these lot lines. A lower-roofed glazed “tube” connects the new addition to the exiating building. The addition is treated as a “site wall” forming an enclosure to the site on the east. The wall is clad in Cor-Ten (weathering) steel plates, hung from the structural wall. The plates are arranged in a staggered pattern, with “slot” glazed openings placed within the pattern to reinforce points in the plan and to provide “peek-a-boo” views from the inside to the outside. A continuous skylight runs along the east side of the new roof to provide daylight into the learning center. A planter is located on the roof along this east side with plants spilling over and softening the east wall. The existing rear yard has several mature trees. The new addition looks out on (to the west) and enlivens this yard, giving it a new garden identity. A new cast-in-place concrete wall is located on the north property line to enclose and define this garden. (Prendergast) Kingsbridge Branch Library, New York (Bronx), NY – USA 2011 $ 4.200.000 Awards: NYC Art Commission for Excellence in Design 2005 The design for the new Kingsbridge Branch Library is a response to both the program and the unique features of the site. Located at the northwest corner of Corlear Avenue and West 231 st Street, the site is 12 feet below street level. Heavy stone retaining walls define the east and south sides of the side, while the north side is level with the lower floor of the adjacent synagogue. The west side retaining wall abuts a commercial property. The library will provide approximately 12.000 sqf. on two levels. The building is set back about 14 feet from the east and south street lines creating a sunken courtyard defined by the new building and the field stone retaining walls. The library is reached by a bridge spanning this garden. To maximize natural light and to bring daylight to the lower level, our scheme proposes a 2-story 25´high glass window wall facing south and east. Sun is controlled by an external metal brise-soleil. The upper floor is set back about 8´from this wall, creating a stwo-story atrium. The main stair is located in this space, providing a pivotal point between the two levels. The elevator tower is incorporated into the entry bridge and vestibule creating a campanile-like element in the complex. The Community Room is expressed as a curved-face metal-clad rhomboid which anchors the corner and frames the primary glazed façade. The building also features a Green Roof, which provides not only heavy insulation for energy conservation to ease the load on the borough´s overtaxed storm sewer system. (Prendergast) Sedgwick Branch Library Addition, New York, NY (Bronx) – USA 2002 $ 1.600.000 Awards: Architectural Record Magazine 2005,6 The Sedgwick neighborhood in the Bronx is an area in transition. Housing is being rehabilitated while University Avenue (Martin Luther KingJr. Boulevard) has been developed with a new park-like median strip. Businesses along the boulevard are also starting to thrive. The new branch library replaces a small existing facility and represents an important step in the neighborhood revilitalization. The proposed library offers the community reading and reference material for adults and children, while als providing space for community activities. The site is triangular, at the corner of University and 176 th Street. The design expresses the two main functions. The main reading areas are housed in a long rectangular volume fronting University Avenue. A long gallery faces the exterior plaza to the north and serves as a main circulation spine. Adjoining this volume is a conically-shaped stainless steel-clad multipurpose room housing community activities. The cone shape establishes the library as the focal point or beacon to the neighborhood. The site has been designed by artist Sandy Gellis. A series of stepped contour lines is punctuated by etched steel shafts, tipped with phosphorescent caps (which glow at night), in the pattern of the Signa Galaxy. Rock formations evocative of the native stone of the area form a counterpoint to the steps. In 1994, the new Sedgwick Branch Library building that our office designed for The New York Public Library opened to the public. The design was distinguished by a conical-shaped metal-clad community room and an environmental art exterior court design by artist Sandy Gellis The building won acclaim for its innovative design, and was featured on the cover of Architectural Record Magazine. In 1998, the Library returned to Predergast Laurel Architects to design an addition to the building that would double the program capacity to accomodate nighborhood demand. The new program required the addition of a second story, thus separating and expanding the adult and children´s reading areas. The scheme also provides additional staff offices, a new alevator, and a skylit public stair. A new steel-framed second story was built on top of the existing masonry first floor. The second floor is clad with cement panels on ligtweight metal stud construction. A new steel bow-string truss canopy highlights the main entrance on University Avenue. A series of triangular-shaped monitor skylights were installed to illuminate the second floor reading room. The building has been completely upgrated with new finishes, lighting and furniture. The design expressed both the library and commumnity functions. (Predergast) South Beach Branch Library, New York, NY (Staten Island) – USA 2001 $ 400.000 The New York Public Library´s South Beach Branch in Staten Island is one of the system´s newer facilities. The library leased space a concrete block commercial storefront facing Robin Roaed. This building houses small neighborhood branch for adults and children. Our design solution left the original building structure exposed, thus heeding the budget and making a virtue of necessity. The steel roof joists and block wall were blended with new ductwork and lighting carefully woven into the existing fabric. A new vestibule was created to define the entrance. The central feature of the scheme is the main circulation desk. The desk includes sloping galvanized steel-clad wall intersected by an elliptically shaped overhead grid and a synthetic stone counter. The materials used throughout are industrial grade, including MDF paneling, maple plywood window boxes and exposed steel. Color is used to enhance the spatial organization, including the areas surrounding the circulation desk and children´s storytelling. (Prendergast) Brooklyn Heights Branch Library, New York, NY – USA 1993 $ 4.500.000 he Brooklyn Heights Branch of the Brooklyn Public Library houses two libraries in one: the Buisiness Library and the Brooklyn Heights Branch. The building was built in 1961 with two floors of approximately 30.000 sqf. The project involved the complete interior renovation of the building, including its reading rooms, staff facilities, entries and service spaces. The addition of two new wings has expanded the children´s and adult reading rooms. In addition, a new auditorium wes incorporated into the first floor. The design seeks to enhance the building´s public image within Brooklyn´s Civic Cnter. The new addition faces the intersection of Tillary and Fulton Streets. A new curved facade faces north with a small park space completing the corner, thus helping to define and punctuate this intersection. The original materials, limestone and granite, have been chosen for the addition, however, they are used in a more articulated way. The interior is redesigned to rationalize the layout, making reading materials more accessible. The Business Library´s design addresses the newer forms of information retrieval annd accommodates new microfiche and microfilm statons. (Predergast) 161
Prozign Architects, Houston, TX – USA http://www.prozign.com Libraries: Texas A&M Sterling C. Evans Library Renovation, Galveston TX – USA 2011 AgriculturAL AND Mechanical College of Texas In June of 2007, the Texas A&M University Libraries embarked on a journey to "re-imagine" its physical spaces from the user´s perspective. With a population of almost 50,000 students, the goal from was to design student-centered learning spaces on the first floor of the main facility — the Sterling C. Evans Library. To ensure student input they began with an extensive outreach campaign. Large "If I ran the library..." posters and accompanying floor plans were hung in strategic areas on the first floor of Sterling C. Evans Library where the renovation was to take place. This information was also replicated on the Libraries´ website. Students were encouraged to draw their ideas and comments on the floor plans. Based on the initial feedback, a series of increasingly focused questions were posted for additional input and clarification. The outreach campaign culminated with several focus groups. The outreach campaign indicated, the students desired aesthetically pleasing group and quiet study areas, comfortable, ergonomic seating and work spaces, expanded access to our popular coffee shop and easier access to service staff and expert librarians. Design elements such as improved lighting, warmer colors, and soft textures were incorporated to create more "inviting", "comfortable", and "welcoming" spaces -words that regularly emerged from student comments and focus group discussions. The newly redesigned first floor moves from highly interactive areas with the coffee shop, service desk and collaborative group areas to quiet and reflective study areas as a user moves further into the building. Overall design took into consideration the need for flexible furniture and collaborative areas, where possible, with intuitive access to services and expert help. The completed project includes the following highlights: • A consolidated service area for one-stop circulation, interlibrary loan, and reference assistance. • Custom designed research consultation workstations to better accommodate librarian and user collaboration adjacent to the new service desk. • An expanded and integrated cafe with an additional 70 seats. • Twelve new large study rooms for collaborative work and presentation practice. Seven of these rooms include wall-sized whiteboard areas. • Flexible study booths for additional group study space. • Comfortable and quirky lounge furniture in the form of human-shaped deck chairs. Re-imaging the library from the user´s perspective was our guiding principle throughout the project. We achieved this goal by actively encouraging student participation in the design process instead of making our own assumptions about student needs. Our new spaces allow for increased collaboration between students as well as between students and librarians. In addition, the comfortable, attractive spaces and furnishings offer a welcoming experience for all users. (Prozign) City of Houston, Jesse Jones Central Library, Houston, TX – USA 2008 Prozign completed renovations to the Marston Building that were required by the City of Houston Public Library as a means to permanently relocate their Administrative Departments and Facilities and Project Management Group from the Jones Central Library Building. The move allows the areas vacated by these departments to be reassigned as general public spaces for Children and Teen program areas, reading rooms, staff lounges and HPL staff work stations. The construction budget for this renovation project was $1.3 million, and included demolition, new build-out for offices, toilets, meeting rooms, staff lounges and upgraded mechanical, electrical, and plumbing equipment. ADA compliance issues and conditions have been addressed for the new construction, as well as general building repairs. Services provided: Programming, master planning, design, documentation, and construction administration. (Prozign) Ratcliff Architecture, Emeryville, CA - USA Christopher Ratcliff http://www.ratcliffarch.com Libraries: Golden Gate University, Master Plan and Campus Modernization, San Francisco, CA – USA 2013 (Golden Gate University, School of Law Library, San Francisco, CA – USA) For over ten years, Ratcliff has been engaged at Golden Gate University (GGU) providing master planning and design services for numerous projects, ranging from small tenant improvements to more extensive renovations and additions in buildings completed as early as the year 1913 up to those completed in 1978. Starting in early 2000, when the firm was asked to produce a facilities master plan, the goals of the university included consolidating space and functions for streamlined facility efficiency, improving access and circulation for students and staff, upgrading building systems to support state-of-the-art learning environments and articulating a new professional identity to the local business community. When complete, the campus improvements will total over $60 million in construction cost. The first phase of construction was the addition of a nine-level silo housing new mechanical and telecommunications equipment and infrastructure that fed the adjacent classroom wing in the main academic building at 536 Mission. The new building systems allowed for improved air quality in the existing classroom wing and supported the incorporation of new multi-media systems into the renovated 2nd floor auditoria and third floor classrooms creating state - of-the art learning environments. The next series of projects addressed the expansion and renovation of the Law Library. The goals of the expansion were to increase stack capacity while also providing more study space for law students. The first step involved a 10,000 sf remodel of an existing lower level of the Library installing compact shelving systems and new study carrels while also updating finishes, lighting and mechanical systems. The goals of the expansion were to increase stack capacity while also providing more study space for law students. The first step involved a 10,000 sf remodel of an existing lower level of the Library installing compact shelving systems and new study carrels while also updating finishes, lighting and mechanical systems. In order to free up space for the remaining Law Library expansion, the firm then undertook the renovation of an adjacent historic warehouse located at 40 Jessie Street. The renovated space provided space for relocated university departments, allowing GGU to consolidate all school functions within its two main campus buildings. The concrete warehouse building, originally constructed in 1913 for the manufacture of ship boilers, was bequeathed to the University in 1990 and had been used primarily as a staging and storage area. T he project increased the building’s capacity to 50,000 s.f., adding three increased the building’s capacity to 50,000 s.f., adding three levels, Floors 2, 5 and 6 and renovating existing floors to create a new Student Services Center and University adminis trative offices.Once the 40 Jessie Street renovation was complete, the Law library expansion could continue into newly vacated space which was then reconfigured to include a new reading room, new main entrance, a new reference desk and staff offices. The n ew reading room and entry enhance the Law School’s visibility and overall campus profile in San Francisco’s downtown 162
