Our project team from Atelier Ten toured the construction site of the new expansion of the California College of the Arts. Beyond the hybrid mass timber and steel framing pavilions, one of the key characteristics of the project is the integration of indoor and outdoor space. As a highly passive building, the majority of the spaces within the new building have abundant access to daylight and natural ventilation. The design uses courtyards to minimize the depth of the building massing. This extends the spaces usable area and activates the courtyards while naturally ventilating the space to reduce energy loads. Thank you to Hathaway Dinwiddie for the tour.

Atelier Ten participated in Urban Land Institute's recent Embodied Carbon Convening bringing together experts from KPF, EHDD, Gensler, and Thornton Tomasetti. Leanora Paniccia presented on the embodied carbon study for Vornado Realty Trust's Penn 2 redevelopment in New York City. A major takeaway from Penn 2 is that the reduction in up-front embodied carbon emissions vastly outweighed the emissions added for the renovation and the adaptive reuse of the foundation and structure eliminates. Read about the ULI's event summary at the link below. https://lnkd.in/eax8c_YY

Join Atelier Ten at the 22nd International Radiance Workshop in Salt Lake City, Utah next week! Seif Eses will speak on "Radiance Techniques for Rad Indoor Environments". Seif will provide a walkthrough of different analyses and visualization techniques using Radiance for projects that prioritize occupant comfort and experience. The Atelier Ten projects presented evaluate interior concepts such as visual comfort, thermal comfort, daylighting, and indoor plant growth. The various analyses include direct sun animations, Daily Light Integral (DLI) maps for plant growth, perspective overshadowing diagrams, luminance renders, direct sun raytracing through skylights with the aid of Python, and more! https://lnkd.in/e4XTXKHn #buildingscience #daylight #daylightanalysis #indoorenvironment #architecture #architects Solemma LLC

John King reviews the new Helen Diller Anchor House at University of California, Berkeley. We provided sustainability consulting to the project team including Morris Adjmi Architects, BDE Architecture and Prometheus Real Estate Group. "As for the tall imposing form, the variety of textures and patterns bring it to life: check out the clean metal sun shades snapped above residential windows, or the rounded brick-clad columns that frame the gouged-out terraces." Atelier Ten studied various shading and natural ventilation strategies to significantly increase comfort for residents during emergencies and also increase energy efficiency during normal operations. External shading was integrated on the south, east, and west facades to reduce the need for air conditioning, improve occupant comfort and increase resilience. Integrating passive design strategies into this new residence was a critical element due to the recent increase in public safety power shutoffs as a result of climate change. #buildingscience #highereducation #studenthousing https://lnkd.in/e9tj39Zq

We're celebrating the revitalization of 550 Madison as one of the Urban Land Institute Americas Award for Excellence winners. Atelier Ten evaluated energy and water efficiency upgrades, technologies, and controls to maximize long term operational savings and guide the project to LEED Platinum. Developed by The Olayan Group with Snøhetta, Gensler and Rockwell Group, 550 Madison is a renovation of a historic landmarked skyscraper including a new lobby, amenity spaces, and a re-imagined garden. The upgrades to the existing envelope combined with new HVAC systems, improve indoor air quality and thermal comfort for building occupants while promoting energy efficiency. By addressing the building’s energy efficiency head-on, 550 Madison reduced greenhouse gas emissions and met New York City’s #LocalLaw97 mandate. #existingbuilding #renovation #buildingreuse #UrbanLandInstitute #LEEDPlatinum #skyscraper #NYClocallaw97 https://lnkd.in/d9s_HZ6Y

Last week, our team attended the grand opening of the new Far Rockaway Library. Atelier Ten has worked on the project since it kicked off 12 years ago, making it one of our longest running projects. We're happy to see it completed and to share the excitement with the neighborhood and local leaders! Designed by Snøhetta and Brooklyn-based contemporary artist Jose Parla, the library serves as a gathering space and resource for knowledge for the diverse and dynamic community. Atelier Ten's lighting and daylight design work in tandem with the library's open plan, offering views to the surrounding neighborhood and creating a sense of connection to outside.

Omaha RiverFront Revitalization won an Urban Land Institute Americas Award for Excellence in the Urban Open Space category. This newly revitalized RiverFront park reconnects downtown Omaha to the Missouri River with a network of thoughtfully illuminated spaces. Atelier Ten's #lightingdesign preserves the park’s daytime character after dark with lighting treatments tailored to each area’s use and activity level. With sensitivity to the site’s urban context and history, the lighting design transforms a site into a modern, safe, and welcoming space for a diverse community. To improve safety and visual comfort without making the space feel overly surveilled, the lighting team concentrated on preserving visitors’ night vision by limiting glare, balancing light distribution, and controlling light level contrast. The RiverFront exemplifies how thoughtful lighting can address practical concerns like security and environmental impact while creating a space that invites connection, celebration, and appreciation of open space. Congrats to the team at OJB Landscape Architecture, HDR, Gensler, Safdie Rabines Architects, Kiewit, Alvine Engineering! https://lnkd.in/e4tth_8a
