1 CARES Center for Advancement of Research and Education in Sustainability Objectives: 1) Researching client needs 2) Writing a detailed programming document 3) Preparing quick schematic solutions to a design problem 4) Writing detailed product specifications 5) Preparing preliminary budgets for FF&E 6) Preparing renderings and presentation drawings to sell a concept 7) Presenting solution to client (visually and orally) 8) Working as a team Project Description: Over the next 6 weeks, you will be researching, evaluating and prioritizing the design needs for the proposed Center for Advancement of Research and Education in Sustainability (CARES). CARES is a collaborative grant initiative in the School of Construction (SoC) that will cultivate and inspire interdisciplinary learning on campus and within the community in order to make public a variety of innovative, sustainable building concepts and solutions. In addition, CARES will establish a dedicated location for collaborative research and interdisciplinary learning at all levels and will include a green resource library. Your solution will provide a functional design for incorporating the center in the Kate Hubbard House by rethinking the uses of the existing spaces, incorporating existing inventory and proposing new FF&E. The project will be completed as a team and will require extensive programming research, development of schematic floor plans, elevations, 3D views, and renderings and the specification of all proposed FF&E. In addition, (should time permit) preliminary budgets will be developed with the assistance of local designers to determine ball-park cost estimates associated with the center. Because funding relies heavily on grant and donor sponsorships, it is important to keep costs to a minimum. Your design solution will be presented in a visual package (bound booklet) and will include a minimum of one FF&E sample board. The design solution must include the proposed renovation of the following rooms: 1 Foyer, 2 Reception, 3 Student Lounge, 2B Conference Room, 5, Drafting studio, 1 Computer Room and 5 Classroom. To learn more about the grant proposal, refer to the pre-proposal link on the class website.

2 History of the Kate Hubbard House The University of Southern Mississippi s Interior Design Program has been housed in the Kate Hubbard House (KHH) since The history of the KHH is unknown prior to 1928 when it first housed the Mississippi Southern College s (MSC) Home Management Program. The Home Management Program was part of the Home Economics Department and taught students how to manage all aspects of the home from cooking, cleaning, entertaining and childcare. It was in 1944 that the KHH began housing an infant child during the day while students lived in the house during the semester to learn to manage the home. Home Management was taught well into the 1970 s, and today, there are many residents living in Hattiesburg that remember living in the KHH during the semester. Stories of a marble floor in the entrance have been told in which students learned how to polish, strip and wax for a grade. Another interesting fact about the KHH is that the back yard once housed chicken coups during the great depression. There is a long history and sense of community connected with the KHH that will continue for many more years. The house is named after Mrs. Elizabeth Kate Cunningham Hubbard who served as head of the Home Economics Department in In 1916, she married Mr. F. J. Hubbard, Director of Vocational Education for Mississippi from It was under Mr. Hubbard s tenure with the state of MS that the Home Economics Department was approved as a vocational program at MSC. In 1951, the home was dedicated to the late Kate Cunningham Hubbard ( ). How and why the house was named after Kate Hubbard is unclear as she served only 1 year with the University. In 1990, a back addition was added to help the program grow and become accredited for the first time. This addition included 2 faculty offices, a lecture room and a studio classroom. The most recent renovations occurred in 04 and also in 09 bringing it to its current state. Project Code Requirements: It is important to keep the following code requirements in mind when designing the center. Using the following codes, develop your design solution for the TOTAL space as necessary to protect the health, safety, and welfare of the public. 1. Paths of travel leading to an exit MUST NOT pass through a secondary space that is subject to closure by doors or that contains storage materials or has items that project into the path of travel. 2. ALL door openings shall be a MINIMUM of 3-0 wide with an 18 clear space on the pull side of the door and a 12 clear space on the push side of the door. 3. ALL accessible (barrier-free) counters (sinks, reception counters, etc.) MUST be a maximum of 34 AFF and have a minimum of 27 clear kneespace below.

3 4. There MUST be a MINIMUM of 44 between parallel work surfaces. 5. ALL electrical outlets MUST be 18 AFF unless noted otherwise. 6. ALL accessible (barrier-free) wall mounted cabinets or shelves located above a work surface MUST NOT exceed 46 AFF. 7. ALL accessible (barrier-free) counters require clear knee space of at least 30 w x 19 D. ALL accessible (barrier-free) base cabinets require a 3 D x 9 H toe kick. 8. ALL objects located on a wall between 27 and 80 AFF MUST NOT protrude more than 4 into an egress path of travel. Instructions: Before you begin designing this project, please complete the following tasks: 1) Research and locate information on similar centers to share and discuss during class. Try to locate floor plans and design ideas from other centers. 2) Thoroughly review the project description and the code requirements. 3) Review the existing floor plans and open your mind to different ways to use the current space. Think outside the box. 4) Gather (as a team) accurate building dimensions and draw the required spaces in CAD. 5) Inventory (as a team) all equipment and furnishings to be reused. Document detailed measurements for these items so they can be drawn accurately. (L x W x H) 6) Thoroughly understand the goals and objectives and create a detailed programming document and a program criteria matrix. (individually and as a team) 7) Keep all notes and individual schematic drawings to submit with final project on February 25 th. Directions for final drawings: 1) Floor plans should be drawn at ¼ scale. They should be free-hand sketched using your CAD generated plans as a template. Elevations should be drawn at either ¼ or ½ scale. Drawings will be scanned so select a scale that does not exceed 11 x 17 paper size. 2) Incorporate all furniture, fixtures and equipment listed in your programming document and indicate existing items to be reused with (EX) for existing. 3) Include necessary notations and explanations to help clarify selections and make sure to relate solutions back to your goals 4) Label each plan with room names/number (can be labeled in the presentation booklet rather than hand lettering) 5) Keep track of all specifications and sizes for your equipment, furniture and finishes. You will code all these items drawn in the final floor plans (ex: C1, D1, etc.) and cross reference it to a digital image of the item. 6) Poché all walls.

4 Use the following instructions for completing the final team presentation: 1) Team projects can be presented as dry mounted presentation boards (not to exceed 18 x 24) or as a spiral bound booklet in a size not to exceed 11 x 17. The team logo should be incorporated on the cover and/or presentation board. 2) Booklets should include a table of contents and all pages should be numbered. 3) Include graphically presented concept statement and list of design goals / objectives. Include your team s final detailed programming document and program criteria matrix. 4) Identify the following information on the back of the boards or booklet. Project Title, team member names, class, semester and year. Please type this information. 5) All drawings, elevations, renderings, and images shown must be labeled using a professional font, (-12pt size). Include a graphic scale for the plans and elevations and indicate NOTE TO SCALE for the 3D view. 6) Drawings to include in the final package should include rooms 1, 2, 3, 2B, 5, 1 and 5. In addition, 4 elevations and 2 perspectives of your choice should be included. All drawings shall be schematically (loosely) rendered. 7) Include digital images of proposed furniture, finishes, lighting, signage, artwork etc. along with specifications and cross-reference them to the plan.
