1 GATEWAYBUILDING

2 03VISION STATEMENT 05SITE PLAN GATEWAY BUILDING Oberlin College desires the Gateway Building to be a multi-purpose academic, commercial, hospitality, conference center, entertainment, and retail building that will be an iconic hub at the nexus of downtown Oberlin. There are existing businesses located on the proposed site, some of which will relocate to the new building. Synergies between a proposed culinary institute specializing in regionally grown organic cuisine and the proposed restaurant are being explored. There are college offi ces that will relocate to the Gateway Building in order to create a welcoming front door to the campus. Oberlin College wants to continue its leadership in sustainability by exploring devices and methods to realize the goal of net zero energy consumption and net zero carbon production. 08FLOOR PLAN 19ELEVATIONS 22SECTIONS 25HOTEL 28PERSPECTIVES 42OPTIMIZATION&COMFORT 48NARRATIVES 94PROGRAM SUMMARY

3 03VISION STATEMENT

4 VISION STATEMENT Gateway Building is an economically viable academic, commercial, hospitality, conference center, entertainment and retail building living as an iconic net-zero carbon hub at the nexus of downtown Oberlin. As the fi rst Green Arts District structure Gateway Building engages and responds to the fi ve district principles as follows: 1: POST-CARBON ECONOMY Gateway Building will identify synergies which allow economy and ecology to simultaneously fl ourish and amplify each other 3: LEARNING Gateway Building will be a place people learn how to positively (re)engage with their built and unbuilt environment. The facility will teach, promote and maximize healthy environmental connections. It will allow occupants to monitor and understand their daily environmental impact and will provide them tools to reduce their consumption of resources at Oberlin and beyond. 5: EXPLORATION Gateway Building will interactively facilitate the conversation on how art and science converge with sustainability. It will advance current commercial and hospitality models by serving as a working laboratory for new business and operational practices from which post-carbon models can grow 2: COMMUNITY Gateway Building will strengthen community by providing a physical setting for all to experience exemplary environmental and civil practices fi rsthand. It will also serve as a catalyst for local and regional partnerships. 4: SUSTAINABILITY Gateway Building will exemplify fl exibility and resiliency in support of future change. It will integrate restorative biophilic design principles highlighting connections to natural systems and processes. VISION STATEMENT 4

Illustrated here are several ways in which the design answers the challenges of low energy, water reuse, food production, vegetation and occupant comfort rooftop PV or solar thermal west vertical shading CLOSED west facade recessed facade form self-shades elongate N-S axis for solar exposure south operable shading CLOSED rooftop PV or solar thermal west vertical shading OPEN atrium passively preheats air for rest of building south operable shading OPEN shallow E-W axis for daylighting x 2x WIND (spring & fall) harness wind natural ventilation VEGETATION (spring, summer, fall) RAIN (all year) rooftop agriculture vertical gardens rooftop garden H 2 O collection surface atrium as lung operable windows typical SW winds layout maximizes passive natural ventilation 20% of roof surface 80% of roof surface gateway building CLIMATE RESPONSIVE DESIGN 43

22 natural ventilation mode (spring & fall) Average Oberlin outdoor conditions allow comfortable natural ventilation to be utlized 30-40% of the year. Operable windows and doors are opened, while mechanical systems are shut off to maximize: energy savings, interior connection to the outside and guest comfort KEY PLAN natural ventilation high operable windows on north side allow hot air to naturally exhaust without fans optimized operable windows natural ventilation increases comfort spring/fall energy savings creates indoor/outdoor space cool air intake low operable windows on south side allow cooler air to be passively pulled in near the oor level for occupants GREAT ROOM ENERGY & COMFORT 44

23 heating mode (winter) Energy savings is maximized by opening operable shades for passive solar heating and utilizing low energy radiant heating. Ambient winter great room temperature is Areas occupied for extended periods, such as reception desk or seating, would have supplimental heat to increase comfort living wall biophilic focal point heating and guest comfort (via humidi cation) passive air preheat air passively heated by sun rises to ceiling and is distributed to building spaces as free heat KEY PLAN water wall biophilic focal point heating and guest comfort (via humidi cation) supplemental heat reception desk and seating areas will have supplimental heat to increase comfort daylighting strategic glazing allows deep daylight penetration reducing arti cial energy use and increasing occupant comfort passive solar glazing allows sun to heat oor, which heats space (using no manmade energy) radiant oor slab low energy heating more guest comfort displacement ventilation fresh air supplied low and naturally rises to exhaust GREAT ROOM ENERGY & COMFORT 45

24 cooling mode (summer) KEY PLAN Energy savings is maximized by closing operable shades at select times to block unwanted solar gain and utilizing low energy radiant cooling. Ambient summer great room temperature is 80. Areas occupied for extended periods, such as reception desk or seating, would have supplimental cooling to increase comfort water wall biophilic focal point cooling and guest comfort (via dehumidi cation) living wall biophilic focal point cooling and guest comfort (via dehumidi cation) exhaust removes cavity heat daylighting strategic glazing allows deep daylight penetration reducing arti cial energy use and increasing occupant comfort supplemental cooling reception desk and seating areas will have supplimental cooling to increase comfort interior shade shade deployed to block unwanted solar gain & trap heat between shade and glazing radiant oor slab low energy cooling more guest comfort displacement ventilation fresh air supplied low and naturally rises to exhaust gateway building GREAT ROOM ENERGY & COMFORT 46
