Foundations

Groundbreaking and construction progress!

We've broken ground!  I'm sure if you have been by Moss Street's backyard you've noticed the orange fence surrounding all of the foundation holes.  We are all excited with the current progress and can't wait to continue building!

Construction Documents

Here the design team was really looking into how this structure is going to be built.  It is starting to reflect elements of MSCC in the connections and the structure.  The deck and green roof are also built into this model and further contribute to the up and out spiral of the roof forms.

Process

This iteration was developed right after our meeting with the Campus Planning Committee and MSCC.  The roofs began to fan and spiral outward which provided an opportunity for a large central open space to emerge.  Here we were happy with the spaces created by this organization, but doubts were raised on the feasibility of building this structure in one term with our limited construction knowledge.
