  2. | Greenwich Academy • Overview of Occupant Greenwich Academy is an independent college preparatory school for girls and young women, located in Greenwich, Connecticut. The campus is an inclusive community for students from pre-K to 12th grade. In general, the goals of the institution are to: • promote the highest ethical and moral values • enable each student to reach her highest level of academic achievement • foster a sense of aesthetic sensitivity and creativity

  5. | Greenwich Academy • Architectural Overview • The building itself is designed to look and feel “open” and bright. • Contains many sustainable design elements, such as planted roofs, stormwater management, and recycled materials. • Structure is based on laminated wood columns and steel beams and girders. **show picture of wood/steel connection** • Building enveloped by full-height glass curtain wall on most sides.

  6. | Greenwich Academy • Architectural Overview • 4 “Light Chambers”; large glazed spaces that protrude above the 2nd level. 1 4 2 3

  7. | Greenwich Academy • Special Design Considerations

  8. | Focus of Redesign • Space #1: West Corridor • Space #2: Library • Breadth #1: Library HVAC revision • Breadth #2: Library Cost Analysis • Space #3: Science Room 1 • Electrical Work: Science Room

  9. | West Corridor • The West Corridor is the main circuit of the building, leading visitors down from the Main Stair, and into the various connected spaces.

  10. | West Corridor • As the primary thoroughfare in the school, this corridor is like an artery directing blood (people in this case) to the adjacent spaces. entrance corridors • The lighting system should reflect this sense of movement.

  11. | West Corridor • Goals for Space • Lead visitors into other areas of building. • Retain sense of open space. • Integrate light quality with daylight.

  12. | West Corridor • Solutions Lead visitors to other parts of building • Use compact fluorescent downlights along center of corridor.

  13. | West Corridor • Solutions Retain Sense of Open Space • Use indirect cove lighting to create ambient light and prevent boring, dim light in corridor • Light on walls and ceiling will give feeling of open space.

  14. | West Corridor • Solutions Integrate light with daylight

  15. | Library • The Learning Center and Reading Room combine into one large space to form the Upper School library, the largest open space in the building.

  16. | Library • Goals for Space • Emphasize open space and “clean” environment. • Create reduced-glare environment for VDT use. • Provide strong Illuminance at reading table. • At least 40 fc. Reduce/Control daylight throughout space.

  17. | Library • Solutions • Emphasize open space and “clean” environment. • Create reduced-glare environment for VDT use. • describe use of fixtures and show cut sheets • show renderings close up of VDTs

  18. | Library • Solutions • Provide strong Illuminance at reading table. • At least 40 fc. Reduce/Control daylight throughout space. • Show Renderings, Distribution • Describe daylighting solution

  19. | Breadth 1 • HVAC Resizing in Library

  20. | Breadth 1 • HVAC Resizing in Library * solutions

  21. | Breadth 2 • Cost Analysis in Library

  22. | Science Room Lab Tables Key Planes: Student Desks Teacher’s Table

  23. | Science Room • Goals for Space • Provide vertical illuminance on whiteboard • Maintain high illuminance and contrast ratio levels in rear of room. • Keep a uniform feel between each zone.

  24. | Science Room • Goals for Space *insert newer renderings *try to find a rendering for each goal that exemplifies it

  25. | Electrical *recircuiting and relocating panel *feeder or breaker resizing? *transformer considerations

  26. | Final Points
