COMMUNITY FEEDBACK , CONTRIBUTIONS, AND COMMENTARY FROM OUR READERS ARCHITEC TURAlRECORD.COM
( READER PHOTOS ]
[COMMENTSANDLETTERS ] While a student at Columbia, 1 worked on the original presentation model for Battery Park City at the old Cooper Eckstut office at Rockefeller Center over winter bæak. It was a great ìntroduction to New York , and it's great to see the project fully built. By the way, the other model we were working on at t he same t Îme was for the redevelopment of the Port Authority. Still waiting tor that one!
-Alex Lamis , partner, Robert A.M. Stern Architects The urban planning within the encJave may have been okay, but- not to put too fine a point on it-where was the architecture in a11 of this? The buildings in Battery Park City are universally bland. Cesar Pelli's winter garden is a cJumsy collision of unresolved geometries that looks like an afterthought. But worst of all, the West Side Highway e仔ectively separates this place 仕om the city. It is a ghetto, albeit a wealthy one. 一Anonymous
Funny t hing is, when I'm in Battery Park City, 1 always exp ect to hear muzak playing in the background, even on the sidewalks. lt's shoppingmall design retooled for bland habitation .
-Anonymous
[ CORRECTIONS ] In the article "High'Performance Concrete Gets a Makeover" [RECORD, May 2011 ], we reported that six years ago the Carpinteria. Californiabased manulacturer Forms+Surlaces determined that ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) was not at that time available lor commercial applications. The article should have noted that Ductal, a UHPC developed by Lalarge, has been commercially available since 2000 The article "Investments in Public Architecture Pay 011 for the City" [RECORD, September 20111 should have listed Lee H. Skolnick Architecture + Design Partnership, in addition to 1100 Architec t. as the designer 01 the Queens Central Li brary Children's Discovery Center. In our story "Making Waves in the Skyline" [RECORD, September 20111 , the photo on page 9B was shot by James Ewing.
For l11e Battery Park City has literally b ecome the fulfi11ment of a dream. 1 worked at Cooper Eckstut on the l11aster plan in 1980-81, and became so invested in imagining what this a ll might become that 1 would dreal11 ofit at nigh t. The reality is r emarkably similar to what 1 co勾ured, though on the whole 1 do wish t he architecture was better. Despite a11 ofthe protestations listed above , it is in my mind a fine , urbane en vironl11ent that 1 am sure over t ime will develop character and patina. Perhaps the relative tranquillity is offensive to some, but it can also be a welcome respite from and complement to the a司jacent bustle ofLower Manhattan. Alvar Aalto said t hat it takes 30 to 40 years for buildings to adapt and prove their worth to the point that they really become architecture_BPC , though far from perfect, is on its way; given t une , car飞 the right ar chitectural tweaks, linkages, and broader public usage , it will become an integra l and cherished part ofNew York.

I'M WRITING this letter on an iMac. 1just got off a call on my iPhone 4 1 stíll have a beloved old MacBook, but I'm cheating on it wíth an íPad 2. This is not a paid testimonia1. Like a lot of people connected to the design world , l'm merelya devoted member ofthe cult of Apple. The sad news at summer's end that Steve ]obs was resigning as the company's CEO felt like a watershed moment for our culture. It got me thinking, too, about]obs's complicated l-elationship to architecture Not long ago, 1 visited an architect's studio, a pr istine white 10ft with long rows ofwork tables topped by a battalion of gorgeous iMacs. What other b 1'a nd of compute1' could such an office possibly e l1lploy? The fï1'l1l is known fo1' se1'e ne, c1'isply detailed l1linimalist buildings; natu1'ally, the p 1'i ncipal a1'chitect is a devotee of Apple. He's sOl1leone who would deeply appreciate products so beautifully designed that they express exactly what they do, nothing D1ore. The idea behind Apple isn't that f01'11l follows function , but that each object is the ultil1late integration ofboth. Or as Yeats might well have put it. had he beheld an iPod, "How can we know the dance1' f1'o m the dance?" Yet t he 1'e is, as you know, a flaw in that seeming perfection, at least fo1' the field of architecture. For yea1's , Macs had to be adapted to run some ofthe top software architects use_ As much as practitioners might like the beauty and artful operation of Apple's computers, many have opted to equip thei1' offices with PCs. (The iPad, on the other hand, is turning up more and mo1'e at cJient l1leetings and building sites.) We can't forget that]obs has been a notable architectural patron. He cOl1l missioned Peter Bohlin, the 2010 AIA Gold Medalist, to create Apple's retail stores, including the stunning iconic glass cube for the New York flagship on Fifth Avenue. ]obs has been fascinated by design at least since his days as a college dropout. In a COHll1lenCement add1'ess at Stanford in 2005, Jobs, wh o grew up as a working-class k id , talked about the influence of a callig1'a phy class he'd audited at Reed College. He learned about typeface and later would carefully consider the fonts for the first Mac. He dreamed of encasing Apple 1 in blonde koa wood. W hen he sta1't ed the company NeXT, he got the celeb1'a ted gl-aph ic designe1' Paul Rand to create the logo. At Apple, he has regulariy haunted the studio of his chief designe1', Jonathan Ive. But some of]obs's decisions about a 1'chitecture have been controversia l. He h ired Bohlin to design a 6 ,OOO-square-foot house for his family-but wanted to build it on the site of his 14-bedroom onetime bach elo1' pad, a 1926 mansion in Woodside , Califo1'nia, by a 1'c hitect GEO耶 Washi吨ton Smith, the godfather ofSpan灿 Colonial R凹阳1 P1'ese1'vatíonísts we1'e out1'aged that he was eager to tea1' ít down. AfteI a long legal tug-of-war, during which Jobs let the house badly deteriorate , he was a llowed to demolísh it last Feb1'ua1'Y[RECORD, Apri12011J.
And h ís latest ar chítectural adventure, 仕le desígn of a gígantic new doughnut-shaped headquarters for Apple , is a lready drawing D1ixed 1'evíews. At the Cupertíno, Calífornía , city councíl meetíng wihe1'e he unveiled the scheme last]une, the ferociously secretive ]obs di曲't even mention the name of the arch出ct-though the Foster + Partners logo was on the drawings. In the Los Angeles Times , c1'itic Ch1'istopher Hawthorne called the 2.8 l1lillion-square-foot building fo1' 12 ,000 Apple employees "dogged ly old-fashíoned," akin to the 20th-centuly corporate office parks t hat tu1'ned away 企om u rban vitality 1 can imagine the conversations between ]obs and Norman Foster, the Lord ofthe Ring. Steve would love hea1'ing about Foste1" s ea1'l y mentor, the genius innovator Buckminster Fuller, who was a hero , too , ofStewart Brand, the guru behind the 1960s 讥斤tOle Eanh Catalog. In that same Stanford speech , ]obs cited B1'a nd's "bible." It was, he said, "sort oflike Google in paperback form , 35 years before Google came along It was idealístíc, and ove1'f1owing with neat tools and great notion s." Neat tools , g1'e at notíons-those símple words could be ]obs's legacy While Apple fanatics everywhere fret about the company's future without hím, a1'chitects especially can appreciate the Jobs ethos: How a design looks is inseparable from how it works.

Cleaner buildings. Cleaner world . Imagine a world where buildings can clear the air while they clean themselves. Thanks to the innovative science behind Reynobond~ with
EcoClean'", architects can now design structures that literally make our environment cleaner. Reynobond
w ith EcoClean actively works to remove smog and other pollutants by using sunlight, water in t he air and oxygen to break down organic matter. When it rains, instead of beading up, water will flatten and sheet 0仔 on both horizontal and vertical surfaces. As water collapses and runs evenly off the building , organic matter is taken away. Alcoa Architectural Products developed this proprietary process that leverages HYDROTECT'" apply a titanium dioxide coating, called
EcoClea门,
tech门ology from TOTO~ to
to the pre-painted aluminum surface of Reynobond. This photocatalytic
coating destroys organic pollutants in a reaction with UV light. The result is the
worl d's 币 rst
coil-coated aluminum
architectural panel that helps to clean itself - and the air around it. Cleaner air, a cleaner building and lower maintenance costs: another example of Excellence in Innovation from Alcoa Architectural Products to c hange our world for the better. Find out more at reynobondwithecoclean.com

IT HAS BEEN eîght years in the making, come in more than $15.8 million over budget, and been mired in litigation throughout its construction, but Rafael Viñoly's $44.3 million arts center in Colchester, England, finally opened its door s on September 25. The "Golden Banana," as it has been dubbed by the townspeople, is a 41 ,OOO-square.foot copper-and. aluminum-clad facility built fo1' the arts organization Firstsit巳 The Colchester council hopes the center will raise the profile of this provincial town with Roman 1'o ots , located jllst 60 miles outside ofLondOl1. Stemming from a 2003 invited competition organized by the Royal Institute ofBritish Architects, the project brief called for a multîstory building on a tight site adjacent to a bus station. In a controversîal move, Vîñoly submitted four schemes, two of whîch were not on the competîtion site. His Golden Banana proposal , housing all ofFirstsite's gallerîes and outreach f l1 nctions in a single cr escent-shaped volllme on open parkland to the east of the original site, caught the judges' imagination and won. Instea.d of designing a multilevel building that wOl1ld have required deep foundations-plus a f l111-scale archaeological dig to protect possible Roman remainsVîñoly developed a sîngle-story approach. "There was simply 110 money in the budget for [archaeological] works, so the project would have stalled at the outset," explaîned the architect. "Our one-story proposal was a 'light touch' . . . The building sits on curved concrete rîng beams over site fill, with any Roman remains preserved beneath, untouched."

After construction started, in 2006, problems beset the pr句ect. The fiendishly complex geometry ofthe curved steel structure and huge cantilevered entrance canopy proved too much for contractOI Banner Holdings. Beams had to be reengineered on.site because of unacceptable deflections , and parts of the standing seam roof and guttering details failed. Instead of opening in 2007, the buîldîng was a leaking derelict shell by 2008. A year later, the contractor was kicked offthe project, embroiled in legal claims and counterι:laîms for budgetary overruns; these are ongoîng. The clîent managed to secllre additîonal fundîng and completed the building with a different contrac tor, four years late and with a budget that had risen considerably from the original $28.5 million. There is no den抖 ng, though , that the building is dramaticits horn-shaped golden curve contrasts with the Roman town's orthogonal urban grain, and its stepped section, reminiscent of Wrîght's Taliesin West, allows daylight deep înto the gallerîes. Unfortunately, Viñoly's grand gesture-the building's sweeping, single volllme-has been divided up awkwardly into lecture hall, gallery spaces, education rooms , and "destination" restaurant, all

It is interesting to note that the single exception to Viñoly's 6 percent fee claîm, even on the cost ovenun largest wall, on the south side, leans out at an angle of about 15 (Russell says the archîtect's fee degrees, which makes it less than amounted to about $1.58 million.) conducive to easily hanging artVîñoly, meanwhîle, has stayed work.

But. surprisingly. there's never been an annual Open House weekend in the Windy City. That's about to change. Following in the footsteps of a growing number of cities around the world-including London , Melbourne. Barcelona. Oublin. Toronto.

Open House Chicago offers architecture b uffs the chance to see. 仕eeof charge. more than 100 sites. including m any t hat are normally ofNimit s to the public. "One of ollr goals." says managing director Bastiaan Bouma. "is to reino'oduce the city to its own residents."

Because of the enthusiastic response to the cocktail napkin sketch contest initiated a year ago, RE;: CORD decided to do it again-not so much to encourage downing martinis as to honor the impulse t。 draw in a digital age. This year the jury of editors evaluated more than 1,200 napkins from nearly 400 entrants. With so many submissions, RE;: CORD decided to seled winners according two categoriesprofessional architeds and nonprofessionals (architedural students , designers , and others).

The prize f.or t he best-in-show cocktail napkin sketch by a professional goes to Ze ljko Toncic for his d rawing of Antonio Gaud j's Casa Milà , in Barce lona. The jury found it to be q uirkily evocative of the 1 91。 landmark. Toncic, who has practiced for 33 years , says he has sket ched t he b uilding before but this was the first time he de alt with the difficult medium of the cocktail napkin. "The paper is so soft and absorbs ink readily t hat maintaining control is tricky," he notes. "1 was t rying t。 capture the e ssence of t he structure wit hout going into extreme de tail."
The winni ng cocktail napkin ske tch by a nonprofessional was d rawn by Amanda Prosser, who received her M.Arch. from Kansas State University. W ith jo bs in architecture so scarce , she curre ntly works for a life insurance firm. The jury found Prosser's sketch of No t re Dame du I-Iaut, Le Corbusier's famous chape l at Roncha mp , I=rance (1954), to exhibit a st artli ng economy and e legance of line. (A number 。f contestants submitted sketche s of Ronchamp, which can be seen 。n the web.) When Prosser visite d Ronchamp as a student , she d rew the building in a sketchbook with her eyes closed. "Back in To pe ka , 1 decided to see if 1could do it on a cocktail napkin with an extra-fine black ballpoint pel1," she says. "1did it again without ope ning my eyes."

Contestants were asked to submit sketches on a s-inch..square cocktail napkin , a stipulation that many blithely ignored. But RECORO'Sjury stuck by the rules-with one exception: a tiny, delicate model of a church by Scott Grove (an adist) in which the cocktail napkin was made to act like balsa wood. RECORO created an "hors de concour" (out of the running) award. We couldn't resist i t. By sponsoring a contest for an arguably anachronistic art form in a digital age, RlõCORO supports the conviction that architects still draw to think -and to remembe r works of architecture and urbanism they have visited. Yes , it's true that manysubmis剖。ns were not the fast , direct, effortless gestures we associate with a cocktail napkin sketch per se. As the two winners a nd six runne r s-up demonstrate ,
these sketches took some time and eff。时, especially when executed on a small square of flimsy white paper. While keeping the true nature of the napkin sketch in mind, we allowed fastidiously worked -over entries to be considered. After all, it is for the sake of drawing, which seems alive and well

A steel staircase on the east elevation provides access to the deck f1'ol11 the second floor. Gumey's client, whose office is two blocks away, often holds bu siness meetings on the roof, or invites contacts from his fmancial services firm to dinner.

Th e four children (with one on the way) spend most of their time outside or in t he basement, which contains one bedroom, a playroom, a media rool11, and a laundry. Other than a small office area, t he ground 1100r is devoted to public spaces, including an open kitchen. while bedrooms are on the second floor. "Not one part ofthis house goes unused ," says Gurney. His client agrees, and adds, "lt's a house of its time, and it's completely a ret1ec. tion ofme." .

ARCHITECT ROBERT GURNEY and his client, a young entrepreneur with a large fam ily, shocked the residents ofthe ìEdgemoor section ofBethesda, Maryland, with the house they created . It was not because ofthe design's Modemist roots , alt hough the house is decidedly unlike the Colonial. and Craftsman.style ones nearby The surprise comes 企omits size. At just 2, 200 square feet , t he house is dwarfed by its stately, overscaled neighbors. "Most ofthe new houses in the neighborhood are being built to the maximum size allowed by t he zonin忌" says Gumey.

A new solar-energy delivery device for residential. commercial, and adver. tising applications, Solar Ivy combines photovoltaic (PV) technology and piezoelectrics (electric polarity due to pressure). Made of recycled and recIaimed materials, t he Sola1' Ivy "leaves" (detail, top) can be custom-colored fo1' a specific aesthetîc look or to "paint" a logo on a wall. The density of the leaves can be increased or reduced depending on goals for energy gain, visibility requirements, 01' a 1'c hi. tectu1'a l needs. The system can be produced with one of several types of PV material depending on the energy production and environmentalobjectives. Solar Ivy's flexibiIity g ives it an advantage over other vertical systems; the individualleaves can be a句usted at various angles at different places along the surface to maximize solar exposure and shade.

UNIVERSITY OF NAPLES METRO STATION Naples, Italy Karim Ras1hid IN AN EFFORT to update its meu'o system, the city of Naples, 1tal予 has created a dozen art stations ove r the last decade, guided by Italian art critic Ac hille Bonito Oliva. The stations are filled with a range of contempora ry works by loca1 artists and internationa1 icons 1ike Joseph Kosuth and Sol LeWitt. 1n 2004 , they inv ited New York City-based artist and industrial designer Karim Rashid to bring his psychede1ic sensibility t o the University of Naples stop
Working with the Mi1an firm Atelier Mendini, Rashid developed a scheme for the station integrating a textural mix of slick materials-from DuPont and 1ta lian manufacturers Progetto Ven-oand SITI Groupincluding: Corian, tile , marble , polished stain1ess steel , and glass or quartz printed with Rashid.designed patterns. Now riders discover a new world be1owground, where t hey are embraced by the so位 nature and sU'iking palette of the space, says Rashid. "1 wanted to use the concepulal descent that takes place when entering the subway as a physical and mental transition for visitors." Going from the open Neoclassical
p1aza into t he subterranean station, commuters move from grayscale to Oz.like color. Floors in kaleidoscopic patterns and brilliant hue s of blue , red, pink, and green intersect with highly reflective stainless steel ceilings and walls. But the color is not purely aestheric. "Accent co1ors along hallways guide peop1e to the p1atforms below," says Rashid. And platfonn color s indicate the direction of incoming u'ains. Iconic touches like tile murals of Dante Aligh ieri and Beatrice on staircases orient commuters toward exits, he exp1ains. "A person is in the station on average for three to four minutes. And in that time 1 want to communicate a p1ace that stimulates, inspires, and exudes energy," Rashid says.

TSVETNOY CENTRAL MARKET Moscow Llfschutz Davldson Sandllands THERE I S A MISCONCEPTlON among many designers that the top tloor of a department store may as well be Siberia. Retailers tend to banish offices up there, fal 仇'om quick-selling items like cosmetics and handbags on lower f1oors. After more than a decade designing upper-level hospitality and retail spaces like the OXO Tower Restaurant for Harvey Nichols in Londo l1 and a dining/food hall emporium for Milan's La Rinascente [RECORD, February 2009, page 121J, architecture firm Lifschutz Davidson Sandilands (LDS) sees opportunity in the heights. "Most architects don't understand that the retailer constantly changes what happens on the t1oor," says Paul Sandilands, a director at t he London-based firm. "In most of the great buildings in the world, the ceilings are the most spect acular ." LDS put this experience to work for the Tsvetnoy Cenu'al Market, a lush food hall on
the top two floors of a new department store in Moscow (designed by Russian firm Project Meganom). The designers applied a shimmerin g expanse of2,600 mirrored and hammered stainless steel panels in a geometric pattenl Oll the fifth- and sixth-t1 oor ceilings. The textured surface creates a distorted ref1ection of sh oppers and rainbow-colored food displays that can be seen 仕om the ground t100r e丑trance, enticing visitors to travel up. To achieve the effect they wanted , t he LDS team specified a light-colored floor and configured cracks between the ceiling panels to express the building's structural grid, which adds c1arity to the organization of the space. "You can end up with ref1ections ofref1ections ofreflections," says Sandilands. Lights mounted on columns ftll the gaps between the panels with a warm glow. Ceiling cutouts also have pairs of metal-halide lamps, chosen for their crisp light. "We d id a lot of3-D computer modeling to make sure it all worked, but t her e is a degree of chance here , and as it turned out, it alllooks pretty spectacular," says Sandiland s.

LOTTE MAGIC GARDEN Seoul Moss & Lam FUSING ART AND ARCHITECTURE, fine artists Edward Lam and Deborah Moss frequently collaborate with architects, interior designers, and other clients to make custom , r ichly detailed works of art - many of t hem for international restaurants, hotels, and established retailers such as Sofïtel and Louis Vuitton. When cornmissioned by the South Korean department store Lotte to fill a central atrium in its Seoul emporium, t he pa此ners and founders ofthe Toronto-based design studio created a dazzling seven-stOIγ 1l10bile made of reflective gold and silver butterflies, crystals, and g lass beads. The atrium, Lam explains, brings light and air down into spaces that are frequently dense with customers. "At the same time, you're losing a lot of [impo1't ant] ground for retail," he adds. This is pa1'ticularly t1'ue on the main floor , whe1'e the mo1'e showy labels-jewel1'Y, pe1'furne , and othe1' high-end iterns -a1'e located to attract shoppers. "So the client asked us to come up with ideas to put somethillg sculptural there," says Lam. They wanted a piece that would both complernent the expansive space and enhance a sense ofluxury in t hat area. The scheme

ofthe project team fastened each 1110duleω the metal skeleton before they raised the glitte1'ing mobile to the full height of its new home. The work is Moss & Lam's second of its kind for Lotte. In 2009, the duo created "Pisces," a cascade of chrome fish , 190 feet high, that occupies the atrium of t he company's Busan store. The artists' website lists the 1110bile as the world's largest. "Whatwe've 叫oyed about this work is the fme line between craftsmanship and fabrication ," Lam says. "It is a hybrid and an a1't piece, which is 1'e ally what we'1'e a丘缸"

ONE LOOK lengthwise in a sun-speckled upper room is all it t akes to see a spectru m ofideas at play in Gerh ar ds & Glücker's exhibit pieces for the Saxon castle of Albrechtsburg. in eastern Germany. Here the gaze is drawn into a lon g silvery vitline hung soberly with coins and daggers. Latin inscriptions. and Saxon royal seals made 仕um wax and animal hide. Move to one side. and suddenly the h ighly polished int erior looks as if it's made of mirror s. r eflecting objects previously hidden from view. picking up the expressions and movements of visitors nearby. and revealing the light. shad ow. al1d shape ofthe room itself. Look away. and one snaps back into the austere space of a medieval antech amber. Albrechtsbu rg. a 540-year-old castle on a hill overlooking the small river town ofMeissen . is a shortjoumey 白'0111 Dresden. an ancient seat ofroyal句 and curren t capital of the German free state ofSaxony. Restored by the former East Germans m ore than 40 years ago. the castle was open for touring. but there was n o lI1useum. So the challenge was twofold when Berlin-based interior architects Carsten Gerhards and Andreas Glücker were selected by Saxon state officials in 2008 to create an insta llation for the 300th-anniversary exh ibition of Meissen's famous porcelain. w ith t he condition that their design could transit ion into a perm anent exhibition celebrating the area's history and architecture a仕er it c1osed. It would be difficult to work within a medieval landma rk Moreover. the architects would have to be disciplined to display historic artifacts in a contemporary and creative way without tipping 由e scales into something jarring or farcical Specialists in working within the constrain ts ofhistory-they had already completed interiors for the city museum in medievallher an d for t he house of composer Georg Friedrich Handel-the designers spe nt time learning t he h istOl)' of Albl'echtsbu rg. its porcelain manufacture. an d the physical presen ce of t he building with its astounding vau lted ceilings and two spiral staircases. each lookin g like a string of seashells bound by lithe stone banis ters. "Ou r strategy became dematerialization ." Gerhards says. "Rather than materia lize the objects on display. we made artifacts which re f1ect the presence ofth e building. An d the fOffil of those ar tifacts is informed by the objects. and by what is told in t he rOOIl1."

FIRST FLOOR: The first floor of the Albrechtsburg Castle contains the portraits of Saxon nobility; It's where the most ornate vaulting and deeply colored roon、s are found. From the bottom to the top of the plan: the main parl町, main hall, and the entrances from the small and large spir副 staircases. The main hall contains what G&G calls the "Iaser cannon," a large viewing device mounted on a swivel that turns 360 degrees , overlaylng the Images seen through the eyeplece wlth data on the archltecture and construction techniques in use. SECOND FLOOR: The second floor features many large vitrines with displays dedicated to an exhibition of the area's porcelain manufacturing industry, the "white gold" that put Meissen on the map. At the bottom 。f the plan: Installatlons focuslng on the hlstory of the porcelaln. At the top: Installatlons on Its productlon. Special exhibits include a sound installation in a corridor on a raised aluminum floor (see Introduction, page 55); a large carousel vitrine in the Elector Augustus Room; a feature on rival artists Johann Joachim Kändler and Johann Herold; and at the top of the plan, a long shlpllke vltrlne reflectlng a spectacularly P副nted and tiled room. THIRD FLOOR: The third floor displays focus on the politics of the Saxon nobility and the architecture of the castle itself. Vitrines indicated at the bottom of the plan contain architectural exhibits; moving toward the top of the plan, the dlsplays transltlon to the castle as a IIvlng space, wlth blg glass frames showlng how people lived, often eating, sleeping, and working in single rooms. One of the side chambers has a perlscope, going through the celllng to the roof, that overlays viewed images with Informatlon. At the top right of the plan is a small tower prison cell with early 17th-century graffiti.

In addition to presenting fihns by such directors as Pedro Almodóvar, Roman Polanski, Martin Scorsese, Lars von Trier , and Wim Wenders , the FSLC is showcasing the state-of-the-art Elinor Bunin Munroe Film Center, recently completed by architect David Rockwell and his fïrm Part ofthe greater Lincoln Center revitalization, the 17,500-squar etoot pr句ect is located at street level, under the Lincoln Restaurant Pavilion [RECORD, June 2011, page 46] by Diller Scofidio + Ren仕o (DS+R) and FXFOWLE, and pushes deep into t he campus in位 astlUcture ben eath the Milstein Pool and Terrace and above the mechanical plant. The existing 1960s site had contained a garage and underutilized office spaces.

FLOOR PLAN
The prominent frontage on West Sixty-fifth Street provides the community-friendly access that FSLC needs to grow. For years , the 42-yearold gr oup h ad been limited to screenings and programs at one venue-the excellent but secluded 244-seat Walter Reade Theater , behind the ]uilliard School-with occasional events at Alice Tu lly and Avery Fisher halls The challenge, r ecalls Rockwell, was to carve out an area that was high enough for screening rooms with perfect sight lines and acot1 stics Working closely with the design and core-and-shell teams at DS+R and FXFOWLE, as well as acousticalωnsultant]a ffe Holden. Rockwell 缸ld his crew bUITowed south, away from the street, clearing the mechanical space and excavating behind it to create two soundisolated screening rooms that share a r ear projection booth: t he 144-seat Francesca Beale and the 87-seat Howard Gilman theaters.

Softly pleated perforated-steel walls absorb sound and f10w into the vestibule to further buffer outside noise. Roomyαlstom seats are comfortable enou gh to enjoy t he four-and-a-hal f-hour Mysteries ofLisbon, by Raoul Ruiz. And when the LED-backlit pilasters that frame the screens fade t o black, the architecture disappears. By ∞ntrast, the remainder ofthe film center is open, f1exible , and bright, with polished concrete f100rs and exposed columns and ductworl(-an homage to the roots ofthe space, says Rockwel l. The entrance , too, is U'ansparent. Here the architects fashioned an an gular glazed "marquee" in vivid orange that mimics the roofline ofDS+R's restaurant pavilion above and beckons visitors to enter across a theaU'ical LED carpet. Rockwell and his team split the house into public and programmatic areas with a smart, sit-down café and a d iminutive film sh op, tor patrons and passersby, hlcked to either side of
the lobby. A wood-lined amphitheater on a f10ating slab navigates the acoustically problematic m echanical room below. Central to the scheme, it backs o nto the p rojection booth and serves as a transition between th e lively frontof-house and rear scr eening zon巳 Although less quiet t han the theaters , this conge nial spot h as a 152-inch plasma screen an d cushiontopped bleadlers that facilitate direαorchats, documentaries , and previews. ult's a very ‘ curatable' space that can change based on the Film Society's needs ," says Rockwel l. To maintain this core room's visibility, he enclosed it with 归国ally frosted glass side walls and doors that f1ank a 16-foot-wide garage-style por tal , which can be a fourt h wall when closed Such thought句l design strategies pay off. The Elin or Bun in Munroe Film Center has been busy, wit h a ll t hree theaters in use since opening in ]une. Now, says FSLC executive director Rose Kuo , uit's allowing us to host more films at the New York Film Festival. It's a great success and sign ifies a new era in our history." •

CARGAL GROUP OFFICES I LOD , ISRAEL I AXELROD DESIGN
COMMISSIONED TO design a small suite of offices in a noisy cardboard factory near Ben Gurion Airport. in Israel. architect Irit Axelrod decided to create an interior that asserts a sense of"quiet power." So she used materials like concrete. glass. and stainless steel in ways that emphasize both their inclustrial roots and their sophisticated finishes. Visitors enter the new offïces of the Cargal Group from an indoor walkway above the fà.ctory floor. where enOffil0US machines crank out cardboard packaging and forklifts scurry from one place to another. To separate the 2.000-square-foot office space 仕0111 the racket ofthe manufacturing facility. Axelrod erected a concrete-block wall that provides acollstical privacy and a rllgged sense of encIosu re. "Whel1 the project was complet时. 1 realized 1 had created a serene bubble in the middle of
By keepinq the 2 ,000square-foot suite as 。pen as possibie and separating private 。ffices with fioor吨。ceilinq glass, the architect made the space seem bigger than it actually is. A concreteblock wall provides acoustical privacy from the factory_
a fà.ctory," she explains. But she connected the loud and qlliet parts ofthe bllilding with a 30-foot-long band of glass cut into the thick concrete wall just 3 feet above the office floor. At Íilrst the height of the horizontal window seems a bit odd. as if a Japal1ese aesthetic had somehow infiltrated the design. Then you sit il1 Ol1e ofthe offices on the opposite side of the lobby/reception area and understand the height is jllst right, providing an important visuallink between executives and factory workers Axelrod. who splits her time between Israel and San Frandsco. says that growing up in Tel Aviv, with all of its early 20th-century. InternatiOl1al Style architecture. il1flllenced her approach to design. "Tel Aviv's origins are in the Ballhalls. As a child, these were the buildings I saw every day." The rigor of the
buildings finds expression in the CargaJ project's floor plan. a straightforward set of sqllares and rectangles. Private offices line the building's perimeter to take advantage of the daylight, while the long lobbY/reception area flows into a kitchel1ette equipped with a freestanding plywood counter and metal stools. Floor-to-ceilil1g glass separates the private oflïces 位 om the public areas while maintaining visual continuity and sharing daylight with the rest of the interior. Sustainability was notam苟or driver ofthe design , says Axelrocl, but maximizing the lIse of daylight creates a more pleasant work environment and reduces operating costs While the plan and hard-edged materials express a sense of discipline. the archiitect loosened things lIP on the lobby's angled ceiling. where 1011g fluorescel1t tllbes seem to

be randomly placed. "1 wanted the ceiling to be more playful to provide a contrast," explains Axelrod. "That's wher e 1 decided to break all
the rules." She specified a t1uorescent lighting system that offers custom lengths and can be used either horizontally (on the ceiling) or verúcally (on the concrete-block wall and in the kitchenette). To make the small project seem bigger, Axelrod carried views from one space to another. Although executives can pull down privacy shades in their offices, they rarely do, prefelTing jnstead to maximize their visual domain. The architect also designed pa1'tiαllar elements to give them the illusion of f1oating. She set the wooden 1'e ception desk on a smaller base and placed lights on the unde1'side to shine on the t100r and make it levitate. In a conference room at one end ofthe suite, she inserted a thin vertical strip of glass between perpendiαlla1' walls so they don't quite touch. And she attached stainless steel handles and ha1'd wa1'e directly onto glass doors so they seem suspended in space. Such instances of elements fIoating and sliding past one another provide a welcome contrast to the solidity of polished concrete t1oo1's and concrete-block walls. They work together to establish a balance between the muscula1' and the nimble For furnishings, Axelrod selected a simple
mix of molded-plastic Eames chai1's, a司justable Meda chairs for the execuúves , and Joyn tables. She used a 1'e su'ained color pale忧e ofwhites, off-whites, and grays with occasional accents ofblack and clear-stained wood. In the lobby, three Geh1'y cardboard stools add a playful touch and remind everyone of the packaging material being produced in the adjacent factory. What gives this project much of its character is the intriguing dialogue between sophistication and bottom-line toughness. As SOOI1 as you walk in t he 0征ice 仇。m the factory, you know you're in a different kind ofplace, one where aesthetics matter. But yOll never feel that anything is wasted 01' p ut h el'e for show. You might admire t he poured-concrete t1oors, which , like those in art galleries, have no expansion joints, so the material develops those lovely cracks. But you'll also notice the large ventilation duct n ll1ning through the lobby/recepúon area, exposed in a no-nonsense manner. And the simple plywood cabinets built into the private offïces. The people wo1'king here have good taste, but they aren't squandering money The subtle back-and-forth between the slick and the rugged speaks to the key cha llenge ofthis design: creating a white-collar place wi吐lÍn a blue-collar world. •

L'OPERA RESTAURANT
I PARIS I OOILE
OECQ BENOIT CORNETTE ARCHITECTES
DESIGNING A NEW INTERIOR for a bu ilding as p rominent as Charles Garnier 's historic opera house isn't fo1' the faint-h earted . Erected in 1875 under the auspices ofBaron Haussmann's massive overhaul ofParis, t he 121.000-squarefoot Neo-Baroque edifice stands proudly at the intersection ofRue Scribe and Rue Auber in the middle ofthe city's ninth arrondissement. But these intimidating conditions did not spook architect Odile Decq. When invited to convert a cupola-covered porch into the building's first restaurant, t he raven-h aired designer deftly wrapped the space with a wavy curtain of glass and inserted a white mezzanin e , whose sinuou s 岛rm evokes the Paris Opera's infamous phantom. Facing PlaceJacques Rouch e , Decq's L'Opera Restaurant is located at str eet level, where ho1's e-drawn carriages on ce delivered their ticket-holding patrons. Today, diners approach L'Opera either from w ithin th e bllilding or through the 170-seat restaurant's main entrance, on the bllilding's east sid巳 Inside, the bar and lounge area lie to the left and the main dining room is straight ahead, followed by t he kitchen at the rear. Steps both in the center and at the side ofthe room (plus a ramp and an elevator) lead up to the mezzanine seating-mostly banquettes and semi-private dining areas seqllestered by a low-Iying wall. Though it took 136 years to realize Garnier's intention for a restallrant on the opel'a premises, Decq had only two weeks to develop her idea. lnitially, the client , a restaurant concessionaire with a 20-year contract for the Palais Gamier space, held a competition and actually

But when the Minis位yofCulture nixed 由e winning scheme (for management reasons),吐le dient made a cold call to Decq, who accepted the job despite its time schedule and ll1yIiad rigid restrictions. Because ofthe building's heritage, Decq could not touch its stone surfaces 01' block the view of the ornate pendant suspended 仇。ll1 the domed ceiling. And to enable the space to revert to its original state, every new element had to be rell10vable at the end of the restaurant's limited tenn. "The only thing we could chan ge was the f1oor," says Decq. Working around these constraints, the architect created a mezzanine consisting of a steel skeleton covered with white plaster molded on-site by one ofFrance's two remaining masons with t he traditional know-how. It is like an apparition wafting through the air, its

The mezzanine dodges 0 1' encircles the building's stone pillars, indents to keep the dome's apex visible, and tapers seamlessly down to the 15 unique colull1ns supporting its bulk Contrasting sharply with its ghostly exteIior, the hull-like mezzanine is startlingly bedecked entirely in red. Though partial to black, Decq agreed to cover the mezzanine's low walls, banquettes , chairs, and ca1'pets with the bright color. "Opera red is darker," explains the architect. "My shade is between o1'ange and red." Spilling down the stairs and pooling on the ground floor below, the c缸pet connects 吐le two dining areas , stopping just short ofthe facade. Tailored to the exist ing building, this undulating glass veil wends its way arollnd the stone columns and soars to the curved ceiling. Ranging from 26 to 28 feet in height, it consists oftwo shee臼 ofO.4-inch-thick laminated glass For maneuverability during construction, the wall divides vertically into two sections united bya bent steel band 20 feet above the f1 00r The band is invisibly anchored to the column tops by stainless steeI tie 1'ods, but the wall is practically seU:supporting because of its wavy profiIe. "With no visible structure, the glass is held in place as ifby magic," says Decq. Wh ile silicone joints atlix the top of the gIass to the
ceiling , a second steel band embedded in the f100r secures the wal1's base. Replacing the oIiginaI, exterior-grade brick pavers, Decq used black concrete dotted with smalI stones. Because of a slight level change between the restaurant's inteIior and adjacent outdoor terrace, the preservation authorities permitted the substitution. But they accepted only modest adjustments to the ground plane. as the technical spaces in 吐le opera¥ basement lurk just 5 feet below g rade. Nonetheless, the architect had to excavate to accommodate the 2-inch-thick steeI plates supporting t he mezzanine's columns. Each
column consists of a hoIIow steeI-mesh tube cloaked with plaster. While pockets in the masonηhold LED fixtures that cast Iight dramatically upward , the conduit contains ventilation shafts and electric cables. "This is exactly what Garnier was doing in the 19th century," explains Decq. "A modern architect in his time, he built t he opera frorr司 stone but its main structure was steel." Though the holIow columns can transmit sound to the stage above, ambient music was an important element befitting a restaurant in an opera house. 1、<> prevent interference with performances and offset t he room's many hard

Minimal detailing , colors , and finishes expand spaces in a former warehouse. By Elizabeth Farrelly

"YOU ONCE WROTE THAT Modernists couldn't do front doors, so I've tried to prove you wrong," says architect Ian Moore, as he pivots the massive milk-glass front door to admit l11e 仇'om the str eet. And prove l11e wrong he resoundiingly has , with a front ent1'a nce n oticeably grander and more ceremonial than that ofthe Sydney Opera House (at which my origina l point was aimed) The milk glass, within a fine, m atte-black frame set into the rustic brick facade of a ~ 19白-century warehot时, pref耶lres a superz rationalist interior where monochromatic ~ minimaHsm reigns s咿eme 。 The architect's brief, as he explains it, was 王 for "a black-a nd-white Ian Moore house with < a large, ver y well-lit bathro01l1."

At the city's eastern edge, once dominated by fading indust 1'ial st1'uctu1'e s, Ch ina Basin and the adjacent community ofMission Bay are 1'e emerging as two ofSan Francisco's fastestg1'owing sections.

FOOD CUlTURE
Digital design is combined with traditional craft to create a fresh and casual atmosphere for a new Los Angeles eatery. By Russell Fortmeyer

LOS ANGELES may be the fïrst city to have taken plywood seriously as a finished material, a fact that was not lost on architec臼 David Freeland and Brennan Buck when they designed the interior for Earl's Gourmet Grub. Opened in May 2010 in an empty 1, 500-squarefoot storefront on an otherwise nondescript section ofVenice Boulevard about three miles northwest ofthe beach , Earl's is the kind of casual restaurant that Los Angeles does so well Polished ground-concrete t100rs and plywood mix with glass and marble and organic comfort food , all to fresh effect The two architects met as graduate students at the University ofCalifornia, Los Angeles, and then worked separately for a few years before 自:>tmding their firm , FreelandBuck, in 2009. $0 they readily acknowledge debts ωthe Los Angeles school, particularly to the use of plyw.∞d in the early projects ofFrank Gehry and Thol!l1 Mayne. But there are nuances evident in the design ofEarl's that distinguish Freeland and Buck as part of the digitally connected , theory-based generation ofyoun g architect-academics behind a small-scale
revival of craft. If a llusions to the Los Angeles school occur-Freeland previously worked for Michael Maltzan, while Buck taught with Greg Lynn -they certainly don't dominate At Earl's, the architects responded to a client interest in Alpine imagery and rustic food with an environment made by bending, warping, and fusing planes in subtle ways and with hints of resU'ained color. "We are inter ested in finding a set of material effects and details that, through their method offabricat ion and construction , produce atmosphere," Freeland says ofthe abstract Alpine landscape mural in wood that covers the long west wall of the restaurant. To extend the flat surface ofthe white maple veneer wall into low relief, the architects depended on Rhino and Grasshopper software and a computer numerical controUed (CNC) mill (see related story, page 99). Buck de scribes this surface interest as part of a wider investigation into what digital technology and íabrication can conU'ibute to architecture , rather than a fascination with technology for its own sake. The mural plays against a white gypsum-

THE ARCHITECTS PETER TESTA and Devyn Weiser like to point out that th e robotic Stäubli instruments installed last spring in the new Robot House at the Southern Califomia Institute ofArchitecture (SCI-Arc), in Los Angeles, are not people. For that ll1atter, the Robot House is not a house, but rather a converted double-height space at t he south end ofSCI-Arc's main building. The room h as two glass walls and a catwaIk overhead, which allow students to view the robots in action. Testa and Weiser, partners in the fïml Testal Weiser and faculty members at SCI-Arc, initiated the school's partnership with Stäubli and oversaw the Robot House's design a nd construction. The five robots in the facility, along with a sixth, much smaller on e in an adjacent classroom. range in weight from 60 to 550 pounds and can handle loads ofup to 75 pottnds , 直lloving as fast as 35 feet per second. They m ig ht not be people, but t hey may well populate the next frontier of digital design. Similar models of robots build cars, process p hannaceuticals , and perforll1 surgery. gu aranteeing precision and consistency. In architecture. robots have mostly been used individually to "pick and place" materials, such as bricks. But with multiple robots , designers can investigate 1l10vement. choreography. and collaboration. providing an alter native to the typical linear sequence of design and programming. followed by fabrication and con struction . ..飞Iýe con sider the robots a real-time desig11 and construction platform." explains Testa. Robots ofter a way of getting beyond the computer screen, which doesn't account for g1'avity or ll1aterial properties. "We wanted to move on to something more tangible and interactive." he says. Robots could also enable 仕ee-for:m filbri.ιation. minimizing or eli:minating the use of :molds. This summer, Weiser taught the first seminar lIsing the robots , called Robotic Confections and Confilbulation s , or RoCoCo. while Testa's earlier XLab studios at SCI-Arc had specu lated on their potential use.

For the eatery Earl's Gourmet Grub, FreelandBuck created a mural made of whlte maple veneer lamlnated onto standard sheets of medium-density fiberboard. To develop the mural's low relief, the architects dlqltally translated a photoqraph of an Alplne landscape Into a qrldllke pattern. They then worked wlth fabricator Joe Cooper to set the tool path for the CNC machine. They proqrammed it to make cuts in the direction of the qrain first , to avoid chippinq or splinterinq the veneer.

A six-axis robot can move in the typical X吁~Z planes but also rotate 360 degrees around an object. Ifrobots are not new. they represent the next phase in t he fasànation with digital design and fabrication that has defined some ofLos Angeles' most progressive architectural practices. 1\而ntyye盯s ago. computer numerical control (CNC) milling l11achines, which typically consist oflarge beds with a vertical spindle that can cut material based on programnllng 1I1put, were not common 111 architecture schools, let alone in commercial practice. High-profile local projects such as Gehry Partners' Walt Disney Concert Hall, which opened in 2003. he1ped change the situatioll. The approximately 8 , 000 wood panels and components inside the hall were fabricated using a CNC mill with digital files created by the architects. Although some architecture offices have their OWll CNC equipment. 1110St work with a fabrication shop. The Los Angeles- and New York- based practice FreelandBuck collaborated with Los Angeles fabricator Joe Cooper for a mural installed in Ear! 's Gourmet Grub on Venice Boulevard (see story, page 88). Cooper¥ first step with any project is to clean up architectural CAD files , connecting lines or deleting offsets. as mills require exact instructions. He then converts them into a Mastercam file, which he uses to produce the so-called "G code" that runs the mill's controller. "There's no room for mistakes." Cooper says. "Whatever 1
program is exactly what it will do." He then sets up a tool path that directs where and how fast the mill will cut For Ear!亏, FreelandBuck created the design for t he mural, which consists of maple veneer laminated onto standard sheets ofmediumdensity fiberboard, based on a photograph the c1ient had provided showing a mountain landscape. With the software Maya, the architects translated the in1age into a grid that resembled a topoguphic map. with darker tones indicating a denser grid. They then tI'正ll1slated this into a Rhino file to send to Cooper. The architects worked with Cooper to set the too1 path, programming the mill
to make cuts in the direction of the veneer 's grain first in order to minimize chipping or splintering. It took less than four days to l11i1l the 60-foot-long mural IfFreelandBuck's work in digitized architectural surfaces represents one mode of practice in Los Angeles. the art installations of the Ball-Nogues Studio represent another. Architects Benjamin Ball and Gaston Nogues. two SCI-Arc graduates. started working together in 2004. Ball had worked for Gehry before pursuing set design for fùm productions. while Nogues had spent much of his career working in digital design for Gehry (Ball says "everyone in L.A. is standi.ng on

Brandon Kruysman , Jonathan Proto, and Curime Batliner used this so仕ware platform to produce a choreographed demonstration with three 5归chronously moving robots , a'忧empting to coordinate movement , sound , an d othel variables. 1Wo robots held projectors displaying video on the walls, while t he third robo t fi lmed the event.

design usually includes an imegrated approach ro reducing not only energy consumption but a1so water consumption. The reason for this seems readily apparent; water is an increasingly precious commodity with competition emergll1 g among manyιommun ltIes, cities and states to secure adequate warer supplies for their growing populations But there is also a signifìcant use of energy involved in the movemem and processing of wate r. As a result, architects and engineers involved in green building design are already quite familiar with how to address water consumption in bathroom fìxtures such as sinks, toilets and showers, since these are covered in most green building rating systems and codes. However, rhere is another opportunity to help control water consumption, particularly in residential buildings of all types- multi-family as well as single fami ly. That opporrunity rests in the appliances that use water and are designed and specified into kitchen and laundry situations in a manner that efficienrly promotes water and energy conservation rather than consumption. WATER USE, ENERGY AND SUSTAI NAB I Ll TY Looking at the big picture, there are several ways to think about water use in this coumry. A.ccording to the U.S. Environmemal Protection Agency (EPA) more than 240 million people in the U. S. (approximately 85 percent ofhouseholds) depend on public water supply systems, requiring the withdrawal of more than 43 billion gallons of water every day. T his is quite dramatic when compared [0 the approximately 15 percem of housel> olds that are self supplied (i.e., from private wells) and use only 4 billion gallons of water per day. H istorically, nearly 60 percent of the public supply is delivered to households while the rest goes to other buildings or public uses such as street c1 eaning, swimming pools, etc. Not to be overlooked is the additional water used by e1ectric power plants which typically use 136 billion gallons of fresh water per day across the country during the production of energy from fossil fuels , nuclear or geothermal sources. G enerally,

warer wirhdrawn for power plants is used for cooling purposes within the plant and obviously would be needed less if less energy were being generated. T he EPA notes that with the U. S. population doubling over the past 50 years , our thirst for water tripling, and at least 36 states facing water shortages by 2013, the need to conserve water is becoming more and more critical. From an environmemal standpoint , this increasing demand for water in the United States creates the need [0 build more dams, dig more wells and make more withdrawals from natural water bodies. This trend and the failure to use water efficiencly can hurt our natural water sllpply by altering water f1 0ws due to excessive withdrawals, causing contaminams to intrude into freshwater aquifers and wells dlle to excessive withdrawals, and creating the need to build additional dams. Dams generate nonpoint source pollution by trapping sediment and other pollutants, affecting water quality both lIpstream and downstream. Conversely,
some of rhe environmemal benefìrs rnar are aided by water effìciency include the reduced need to construct additional dams and reservoirs, fewer sewage system fai lures from overwhelming input, and the reduced need to construct addirional water and wastewater treatment facilities. When it comes [0 water use in buildings, it is widely held that water conservation measures are one of the most immediate and cost-effective sustai nable choices that can be implemented. There are several reasons for this. First, as soon as water consumption is reduced in a building, the effects for the building owner and the water supply systems are immediate. Similarly, the effects on the wastewater treatmem system associated with that water use also decrease immediately. Second, there is typically very litcle if any cost increase for water systems, fixtures and appliances that use less water to accomplish the same task or function as less effìcient ones, all e1se being equal. Cercainly there are choices among any water-using item that
Making some informed choices abollt water-using nxtures and applian臼s can yield notable savÎngs in water and energy use Beyond basic water conservation measures, it is importam to realize that it takes a signifìcam amoum of energy to deliver, treat and process water. Most people realize that hot water uses up energy, but supplying and treating cold water requires a signifìcam amOllm of energyωo.Any given building needs to access and acquire potable water from someplace, even ifit is on-site. That will usually involve energy for pumping and sωring water. To assure good health, that stored water will be treated in some fashion, usually with energy imensive chemicals to either remove unwamed material or address organic concerns. Once treated, the water again 陀quires some energy to move it to a higher or pressurized location to service the building. Experts tell us that anywhere between 5 and 25 BTUs of energy are required per gallon just to bdng the water
imo a building. But the process doesn't end there. Once inside the building, the water is used in bathroom or kitchen fixcures and! also in applianαs such as dishwashers and c10thes washing machines. After that use is complete, the water then needs to drain and/or be pumped to an appropriate water treatment facility. 1n most cases, that is a central or municipal sewage treatment plant which is commonly very energy imensive by nature. This is due to the rawenergy needed to operate the plam effectively plus the faCt that it is in constam use, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year, every y臼L Recognizing all of the aspects of this process , the U. S. Department of Energy has noted that roughly 80 percent of water costs are associated with the energy used in the process. To be more specifìc, they note that American public water supply and treatmem facilities consume about 56 billion kilowatt-hours (kWh) per year-enough electricity to power more than 5 million homes for an entire year. As an i Ilustration, it is noted that letting a faucet run for only five minutes uses about the same amount of energy as turning on a 60-watt 1ight bulb for a full 14 hours. Further, if only 1 perαm of all American hOllseholds reduced their water use appreciably, then about 100 million kWh of e1ectricity could be saved per year. That level alone would avoid 80,000 ton5 of greenhouse 伊 emissions-equivalent to removing nearly 15,000 automobiles from the road for one year.

Although appliances aren't specifìcaIly considered , it is possible that a bllilding that has a signifìcam water use for laundry or dishwashing could be a candidate for an innovative green building strategy and resulting LEED points if enough water savings can be shown.

range in cost depending on other features a nd characteristics. H owever, comparing just the cOSt of the water-conservation f白tures between similar items is usually found to be very favorable. Since the average household spends as much as $500 per year on its water and sewer bill, making a few simple changes to use water more efficiendy could readily save about one third or $170 per year. The EPA estimates that if all U. S. hOllseholds installed water-efficiem appliances, the coumry wOllld save more than 3 trillion ga Ilons of water and more than $18 bi Il ion per year.

The goal is to make it easier to evaluate rhe sustainability profìle of resilienr floor coverings, and to enable rhe resilient floor covering industry to offer f100ring products with increased sustainability. In rhe broadest sense, resiliem flooring is usually deAned as a hard surface fJooring material bur with some 飞ive" or "resilience" when walked on that bounces right back to its original configuration. Within Standard 332, resilienr flooring is specifìcally defìned as "a floor surfacing m aterial made in sheet or tile form , or formed in place as a seamless marerial that has a wearing surf二ce that is not textile." A key distinction is that the wearing surface is non-textile such as would be found in carpets and covered under other stand ards. Examples of resilienr f100r coverings include vinyI tile, vinyl composition tile, sheet vinyl. luxury vinyl tiles and planks, cork, rubber, polymeric, and lino leum fJooring producrs. Also incl t+ded are accαsories such as wall base, moldings and stair treads N SF 332 is based on providing 飞 thorough communication ofinformation that is verifìable, accurate and not mislead ing about environ menral a nd social aspects associared with the producrion

and use of resilient floor coverings." The srandard is "intended to be science based, provide transparency, and offer credibility for manufacturers in making claims of environmental preferability and sustainability, and to harmonize the principles and procedures used to support such claims." While che standard is intended to be used primarily by product manufacturers, it is expected that it wiU also be used by independent auditors, certification bodies and environmental labeling organizations, architects, designers, and purchasers in determ ining market-based environmental and sustainability claims. Overall, the standard offers a consistent approach to the evaluation and decermination of environmentally preferable and sustainable resilient f10 0r coverings and includes relevant criteria across the product's fulllife cycle from product design, through manufacturing, use and end-oιlife management. In addition to all of the above, the standard is deemed applicaible to producrs manufacrured in one faciliry or multiple facilit邸, one country or multiple countries. Under NSF Jea,dership NSF 332 was developed using rhe AN51 consensus-based process that included architects, academia, environmental program managers, the U.5. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), state and federal agencies responsible for procurement practices, and fIooring manufacturers. The standard is built upon scientifìc principles including the International 5tandards Organization (150) 14000 series Environmemal 5tandards. lt took over three years to complete the process that included a two-year public comment and voting period. N5F 332 was fìrst released as a draft standard and ultimately received fìnal ANSI approval in 2010. The development committee included represematives from the Resiliem Floor Covering lnstitute (RFCI). RFCI is a nonprofit industry trade association representing the major manufacturers of resilient flooring, raw material suppliers and sundry product producers (e.g. adhesives). RFCI currendy works with Sciemific Cenification Systems (SCS) ro admin ister FloorScore. , which certifies hard-surface flooring complying with the indoor air quality program for VOC emissions under California Section 01350
The new NSF/ANSI Scandard 332-2010 looks ac all cyp出 of resilient f100ring (ιg. vinyl cile, VCT, sheec vinyl, polyme肌 rubber, cork, linoleum f1oorin g). (CDPH/EHLB Stnadard method V T.lFebruary 2010) and LEED IEQ 4.1 and 4.3. Hundreds of hard-surface f1 00ring materials and adhesives currendy bear the FloorScore. seal.
UNDERSTANDING N SF/ANS I STN叶 DARD 332 From the outset, the intent was to develop a cOl1l prehensive standard that looked at mulriple criteria so rhar producrs could be assessed based on multiple attributes of thar product, not just a single atrribute. 5ingleattribute standards serve a purpose but mulri-attribute srandards are regarded as more indicative of deterl1lining such things as an Environmentally Preferable Producr (EPP) as mandared by many governmem agencies. NSF 332 , which uses rhe multiattribute approach, is responsive ro markec requests for a more cOl1l prehensive rool just as FloorScore. responded to l1larket demands for l1leasuring VOC emissions which impact indoor air quality. Criteria Category Groupings Six categories of potemial environmental impacr ro be evaluared are included in NSF 332. The criteria are grouped in general conforl1lance wirh a product's life cycle, from design (i ncluding raw material selecrion and their production) (0 manufacturing, use and end of life. Additionally, criteria related to corporate governance are included to address issues of
social responsibility. The six categories are as follows: 1) Product design that encourages manufacrurers to integrare environmental and life-cycle rhinking into the product's design process 2) Producr manufacruring processes rhar encour
1ρng-term value encouraging manufacrurers to l1laxi l1lize product longevity
4)
End-oιlife management encouraging existing and new resilient flooring products to be collected, processed, recycled, and/or composted within the existing material's recycling infrastrucrure
5) Corporate governance encouraging corporare social responsibiliry in the form of providing a desirable workplace, being involved in the local community, and demonstrating financial health 6) Innovation (optional) ω glve manufacrurers the opponunity to be awarded points for exceprionaI performance above the requirements set forth in NSF 332 Scorin g 如fethodology
For resilient flooring manufacturers that choose ro assess the sustainabiliry performance of their products in accordance with this standard, a poim-based scoring system
has been developed. The system is based on a 90-poim scale with a varying number of poims assigned [0 accomplishing each of the assessmem caregories. Note that the lnnovation category is optional and allows for 10 bonus points beyond the 90 available in the other categories for a rotal maximum potential score of up to 100 points. The category poim breakdown is as follows:
Environmental considerations in design. The manufacturer must implement an environmental assessment program witihin the product(s) design and development system. The program shall consider the environmental attributes and impacts ofits products and packaging, including issues such as designing for longevity, designing for reusability, and designing for recyclability and/or compostability. The environmental assessment program shall consider environmental

now, according co the Seprember issue of 协'gue, color is in : brighr mix-andmatch ," says Jill Pilaroscia, IACC , a color expert and principal of Colour Stucl. io, l nc. "Red panrs with yellow shoes , with an emerald green accessory or blouse , is acceptable. This trend wi ll resu lt in more colorful interior environments , but ir will nor translate well into functional environments like healthcare or schools as t rends wi ll not support the specific behaviors and tasks that should drive public spaces."
"Color is an expressive material equivalent to other materials like stone, iron , or glass.)) - Theo ~句n Doesburg
50 while mainstream architectu re may not favor such Fauvist fancy, the mixing of colors and textures is now tending toward the higher value contrasts described by Truex. "Along with wa rmer neutrals , we are injecting bolder accents of colo r. Our once timid , muted accents are coming alive w ith more daring expressions of color and texture," sa ys Orlando. Examples include wood finishes with more pop , says Trespa's Veraart, such as zebrawood. As for textu re , the latest consu mer trends point to more variety and daring, adds Pilaroscia , an accredited color consultant who lectures freq uenrly on theory and application. " For example , West Elm is offering accessory pillows in fur, rextured felt and prinred sa ti n th is season- the fu 11 range at hand," she explains. "Contract finishes include carpet tiles in a variety of neutrals w ith bold accents t hat pattern in unconventional ways. Some look like EKG tesrs or scoc k marker f1 uc tuarions." ~Continu国 at ce.archit忍cturalreωrd.com

KITCHEN & BATH REVIEW OUR ANNUAL REVIEW OF KITCHEN AND BATH DESIGN INCLUDES A MANHATTAN APARTMENT FINISHED IN LOCAL MATERIALS , A CHALLENGING KITCHEN RENOVATION IN MONTREAL'S HABITAT 67, AND A LAND-WORTHY KITCHEN AND MASTER BATH FOR A PRIVATE YACHT. RITA CATINELLA ORRELL
Madison Square Apartment New York Ci ty Arch itect David Bucovy Architect

AS PART OF HIS close collaboration, Brooklyn-based architect David Bucovy helped scout an apartment for his client, a Swedish businessman in love with New York City. The w indows in the carefully cbosen pied-à-terre at Five East 乱venty-second St reet overlook Madison Square park, with its lush greenery, Shake Shack burger stand, and changing public art installations. Once tbe cinematic Flatiron district was chosen, Bucovy stripped the 1980s co-op apartment down to tbe slabs and oversaw a gut renovation. He kept the palette spare but inc1uded small, 111eaningful details and locally sourced materials New bleacbed and pickled white oak floors and whitewashed walls complement the owner's bright artwork, Ii ke Woody A lIen 1110vie posters with Swedish titles. "The white palette gives primacy to the views and the lig ht," says Bucovy. The three-bedroom, three-bathroom unit has an open kitchen that dissolves into the shared living space. Custom cabinetry sprayed with a catalyzed lacquer hides under a recycled glass and concrete countertop manufactured in Brooklyn. Behind t he stove, Bucovy added a glass backsplash and a minill1al hoOO. The kitchen island nods to New York City's history, making use of reclaimed yellow pine bea111S from the Putnam Rolling Ladder Company (in operation since 1905) The c1 ient travels to the city often on business and wanted a comfortable p lace for his family to stay. A child's bedroom and bath off the kitchen allowed Bucovy to exp eriment. He insta lled fiberoptic lights in a starry sky pattern on the sh ower ceilin g , referencing the family's cottage on the watel in Sweden. "1 like to put these special touches in for people ," he says. A desk sits in an office alcove that
acts as a light box when an aquacolored sliding acηlic door closes it offfrom the living room. Crossing the threshold of the 111aster bathrooll1, ll1ade of the blue mineral sodalite, is akin to being transported to the bottom of a swi ll1111ing pool. B1ue glass mosaic tiles line the walls and floor LEDs around t he perimeter ofthe room enhance the watery shimmer. As in tbe kitcben, lacquered , custom-milled cabinetry keeps toiletries and towels hidden away to maintain the quiet. Laura Raskin

So when a former client approached M句o Stumer Associates Architects to provide the interîors of a new, 165-foot yacht, the fïrm , which fì'equ ently does hîgh.end resîdentîal work, knew it would face a unique chal. lenge. Add to that the client's desire for an open, Modernist aesthetic in their four-bedroom , four.bathroom retreat on the hîgh seas, and you have a veritable architectural koan According to the architects, weig ht and size restrictions, and a need for things to be safely se. cured , presented major challenges in the pr句ect's planning stage "Everyth ing h ad to have a home, so to sp eak, where ît could be safely stored while the boat was movîng from port to port," says finll cofounder Mark Stumer. To achîeve the desîred stream. Iin ed look an d address the limitations the pr吗ect presented, the duo teamed up with the Netherlands.based company Heesen Yachts. Acquiescing to lîmitations sometimes proved
advantageous , the architects ex. plain. " By specifying thin gauge steel , rather t h an the originally specified sh eet m etal ," for example , including for surfaces in the k itchen and b atihrooms , "we were able to accommo date a lot more n atural stone throughout t he boat to meet the desîgn înten t," says Stumer . The countertop in t h e master bathroom is one such place wher e the luxur y of stone is afforded; a single slab of limestone nestles the his.and.hers sinks ther巳 Panels ofbacklit sandblasted glass beneath these sinks- and in the ceiling-provide the mast er bathroom's m aîn source oflight. In addi tion to these touches , the ship features an uncharacteristi. cally open floor plan. The kitchen is demar cated from other common spaces by r ecessed overhead l ighting and strategically placed ledges on the f100r plan巳 Removing walls typically found on yacht s creat ed a " lofì:like feeling ," say the ar chitects. " It allowed for more f1exibility," says StUlηer. 'vVe learned quite a bit on t his project." Asad Syrkett
