Architecture is symphony. The orchestration of symphony through endless collaboration, juxtapositions and harmonies, amalgamate to create enrich-ment to all those that interact with it. Architecture is rhythm, emotion, action and reaction. It entwines the necessities of practicality, the limitations of society and the excitement of wonder, opportunity and ability to influence. We interact with architecture everyday and in every way. We inhabit, explore, marvel and take for granted architecture. As Architects, we are the conductors, the musi-cians, the composer and the observer. We are tasked with the unfathomable goal of creat-ing a symphony for the better-ment of society, culture, econ-omy and our environment. We are not alone in this task, but we must strive to approach our objective with as open a mind as a composer does his music. We must adapt to our challeng-es rather than being defeated by them. We must respond with ingenuity, integrity and above all, hope. PORTFOLIO 2016CORRADO AGNELLO Architect, AIBC, AAA

Edmonton Transit System LRT Stations 9

A variance was required due to the length of the structure and the distance between exits. The variance was granted based on compensating measures that provide an equal or greater level of safety to the public. These include: the provision of sprinklers, two stairways, two escalators and a passenger elevator; high visibility provided by the open mezzanine; wide

exit doors; the openness of the platform canopy to allow smoke to dissipate; and a platform egress capacity that easily meets the NFPA 130 Standard for Fixed Guideway Transit and Passenger Rail Systems requirement of 4 minutes or less. One stair/escalator area is shown in Figure 15.

Kingsway/Royal Alex LRT Station and Bus Transit StationThe Kingsway/Royal Alex LRT Station was designed accord-ing to the Alberta Building Code requirements for a Group A, Division 2, assembly occupancy. The building is 1 storey, combustible construction, and is not sprinklered. The plat-form area is 1,107 m2. No variance was required for Kingsway/Royal Alex Station.

The Bus Transit Station was also designed to Group A, Division 2, assembly occupancy. The building is one storey, has an enclosed area of 162 m2 (1,720 ft.2) and is not sprinklered.

Space HeatingThe buildings are heated with high-efficiency gas furnaces. All the heating ducts run under the platforms in the crawl spaces or basements. All the heated areas have insulated walls and double-glazed windows to minimize heat loss. Supplementary heating is provided at main doors by electric force-flow heat-ers and there are air curtains to reduce heat loss.

Solid Wood and Climate ChangeUsing sustainably harvested wood products that store carbon, instead of non-renewable, energy-intensive building materials that require large amounts of fossil fuels to manufacture, can help slow climate change. Trees provide the only major building material grown by energy from the sun.

The indoor waiting areas have ceilings clad with 19x89 mm (nominal 1x4 in.). Douglas fir, V-groove, tongue-and-groove cladding (Figure 4) mounted on gypsum board.

The platform roof consists of undulating glulam beams (Figure 5) and 89x600 mm (3/12x24 in.), splined, V-groove glulam decking. The decking is covered with plywood sheathing, a roof liner air barrier, Z-girts and standing-seam metal roofing. The roofs of the heated areas are similar except that a water-proof membrane and 90 mm (3-1/2 in.) of polyisocyanate insulation was also installed. The sizes of the glulam beams range from 130 to 175 mm (5 to 6-3/4 in.) in width and 532 to 648 mm (21 to 25-1/2 in.) in depth.

In all cases, the steel-to-glulam and glulam-to-glulam connections are unobtrusive (Figure 6).

MacEwan Station

North LRT (Metro Line) Extension

The North LRT line is a $800mil, 3.3 km extension of the light rail transit system from Churchill LRT Station in downtown Edmonton to the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology (NAIT). Its the first segment of a planned LRTExpansion to the northwest Edmonton city limits. Light rail service on this line will commence in July 2014 and bring two new permanent LRT stations, a transit centre, a temporary station and multiple ancillary buildings (TPSS) into service.

Of the three Stations and transit centre, MacEwan and Kingsway/Royal Alex. inhibit a design philosophy of maintaining a unified architectural language through the use of similar materials while creating a unique identity for each station. This design strategy is intended to reinforce civic identity for the City of Edmonton while providing wayfinding within the City. NAIT is currently designed as a temporary shelter.

The language of movement and sense of icon are prevalent throughout the station designs.

Kingsway/Royal Alex LRT and Bus Transit StationsKingsway/Royal Alex is a major transportation hub that links the LRT system to the bus routes in northwest Edmonton and provides convenient access to the Royal Alexandra Hospital and the Kingsway Mall. There are two structures at the Kingsway/Royal Alex hub. One is the LRT station and the other is the bus transit station (Figure 7).

The LRT station is 123 m long. It is comprised of the platform roof, and a building area that contains an operator washroom, mechanical, electrical and communications rooms, and two heated waiting areas (Figure 8).

The perimeter beams and the glulam decking act as diaphragms. The beams that run perpendicular to the platform taper, giving the roof a tapered profile (Figure 9).

The waiting areas feature natural daylighting that accen-tuates the glulam roof decking (Figure 14). The glulam beams are 175 mm (6-3/4 in.) wide and range up to 570 mm (22-1/2 in.) in depth.

Wood FinishingThe glulam members were factory finished with two coats of clear tone base and one coat of clear UV protection. All the exposed, non-structural wood in the buildings was finished on site with the same finish. Non-exposed faces had three coats of clear finish.

All wood elements are located at least 3 m (10 ft.) above floors and furniture to protect them from vandalism. For all exterior applications, wood members are protected by overhangs or are kept back from drip lines to provide end-grain protection from potential moisture damage.

Meeting Building Code RequirementsIt was necessary for both LRT stations to have a length of 123 m (650 ft.) to accommodate trains up to five cars long.

MacEwan LRT StationThe MacEwan LRT Station has: a platform area of 1,107 m2 (11,910 ft.2); an enclosed building area of 216.4 m2 (2,330 ft.2); a mezzanine (east and west, excluding stairs and escalators) area of 86.4 m2 (930 ft.2); and an enclosed glass building area of 66.17 m2 (712 ft.2). It was designed according to the Alberta Building Code requirements for a Group A, Division 2, assembly occupancy. The building is two storeys, and is permitted to be of combustible construction.

The Bus Transit Station (Figure 13) has a heated waiting area with standing room for 70 people, a food concession kiosk, two washrooms for ETS operators, one male and one female handicap-accessible public washroom, a mechanical/janitor room and a communication room/electrical room. The one-person handicap-accessible washrooms are accessible only from inside the transit sta-tion. Only the ETS can grant access remotely once a call button is pushed. ETS has cam-eras in place to ensure the facility is safe and the person seeking washroom access is not a threat. The entrance canopy provides an additional, unheated waiting area.

As part of Edmontons proposed Galleria District, Stantec has been tasked with providing a concept design for 35 and 28 storey mixed use office towers. Evolving design iterations are presented to showcase the evolution of these towers. With this development on the corner lot of the galleria district, it was imperative that we design the site to accommodate access to the galleria core. Site circulation and addressing Edmontons city grid were critical to the design of the towers. This block is a very unique site within the City of Edmonton as it is where the City grid changes from one axis to another. This kink is expressed within the podium and two towers. The floating podium mass is designed to pay homage to the CN Tower, located directly adjacent the development, one of Edmontons landmarks.

Previous Towers Option Designer / Project Coordination / Production / PresentationThis design option began by focusing on the site context and the connection to the galleria district. One this slice was created, the towers were facetted to help maintain sight lines from the adjacent CN and EPCOR Towers. Further carving of the podium was made to allow the tower to touch down to the ground in multiple locations in an attempt to make the circulation of an important City corner as flexible as possible.

Edmonton City Centre Shopping Mall Upgrades Design Lead / Project Coordination / Presentation

The Edmonton City Centre Shopping Mall was looking for a concept design for the north and south entrances, a revised foodcourt and more presence for the theatre located on the upper level. This included upgrades to the aging escalators were nearing their end of life, located in the central atrium. The concept of creating a ribbon, or thread, that can be used to express the circulation spill out of the entrances was created.

DraftGVHA Ogden Point MasterplanOgden Points primary use is as a cruise terminal. The few buildings on site are largely geared to supporting the cruise or marine industry. Cruise ships are a five month a year operation, thus, leaving the site largely underutilized several months of the year. Through the Greater Victoria Harbour Authority (GVHA), we have developed a functional plan in order to optimize the use of the site through a mixed use development and generate revenue. The thirty year masterplan will be the next phase to will fine tune the concepts that have been developed over several usergroup meetings and public open houses. The intent is to rezone the site and develop an implementation strategy to allow for a redevelopment that will improve tourism, benefit the marine industry and the local residents.

Blatchford Airport Redevelopment PresentationThe master plan for the City Centre Airport is a collaboration between the Architecture and Urban Land group. At the early stages of design, the images are used to show build out and zoning. Moving forward into the process, the Architecture group will get further involved with the building typologies and integrating the structures into the urban fabric.

Corrado Agnello [email protected] 250.216.8672Masterplanning + Urban Design

Victoria Park Pavilion Design LeadVictoria Park Pavilion was a design competition for the design of a new multi-purpose facility nestled in the heart of the Victoria Golf Course in Edmonton. The facility was designed to support change rooms for the skating oval, a ski and skate pro shop, and a concession. The crystaline structure was designed to relate to its winter program. The sustainable design took advantage of the large site area to propose a ground air heat exchange system, along with large glass facades to maximize natural light.

Campbell River Hospital Design Architect / Client Liason / Project Coordination / PresentationThe new $274.5m P3 hospital will be completed in 2017. At 32,316m2, the 95 bed facility was designed to support Campbell River and the surrounding communities and was designed in collaboration with the Aboriginal community. The concept for Campbell River Hospital was to reflect on nature; with a charcoal base, representing bedrock, the striations of blue, representing the nearby water, rippling in the sun, and the muted penthouse, blending into the grey skies. The white stair cores pay homage to traditional hospital vernacular with ribbons of galvalume which will blend into the cores at a distance and glisten off the sun up close.

Comox Valley Hospital Design Architect / Client Liason / Project Coordination / PresentationThe new $331.7m P3 hospital will be completed in 2017. The 153 bed, 39,826m2 facility is located in Courtney BC and is desgined to serve the larger community. This hospital is being built as part of the North Island Hospital P3, which combines Comox and Campbell River hospitals and parkades. The design concept for this site is similar to Campbell River, but the green colour scheme relates to the forest based on the buildings siting. As design architect, my role was to develop the core and shell design and envelope detailing, as well as working with VIHA and Graham to create a building that will help the community it supports.

EPCOR Maintenance Storage FacilityDesign Lead / Client Liason / Project Coordination / Presentation / Production / Construction Admin

The Maintenance Storage Facility is part of a two building addition to EPCORs Water Treatment Facility. Both structures are carefully designed to draw from the architectural language present throughout the facility, while still providing a unique identity and language for future projects. The idea of a brick wrap onto a base structure allows future designers to create mechanical exhaust, clerestoreys for natural light and cost control based on the extent of brick used. The simple form is juxaposed by the careful detailing, creating a elegant and thoughtful response that is rarely seen with an industrial building of this nature.

EPCOR Sodium Hyphochlorite FacilityDesign Lead / Client Liason / Project Coordination / Presentation / Production / Construction Admin

Edmontons newest water treatment facility is also a unique one, using sodium hyphochlorite rather than chlorine to purify our drinking water. As with the MSF, the brick wrap is now over a glass facade, allowing maximum natural light while addressing the issues of security and vandalism. The glazing was designed to resist all UV penetration and located around the entire perimiter. The project is currently under construction, scheduled to be completed this summer.

With views from the River Valley, walking trails and the upscale Rossdale neighbourhood, it was imperitive to take care in designing all elevations thoughfully, which resulted in a high level of coordination with all disciplines.


Hawks Ridge Sanitary Lift Station Design Lead / Project Coordination / Presentation / Production / Construction Admin

The sanitary lift station was part of a new neighbourhood development. Being situated between two residences, it was required to follow the architectural controls set for the neighbourhood. The adaptation of a tutor style took advantage of vaulted ceilings for mechanical services, as well as the articulated brick chimney for mechanical exhaust.

The River Water Intake and Pumphouse is located in Strathcona County, AB. Due to its nature is it situated along the North Saskatchewan River and as such, attention to to the aesthetic needed to blend with the building function. The large kalwall windows were provided as a vandal resistant method of bring in natural light. The block wall structure with smooth faced block veneer and horizontal metal cladding helps break down the mass while providing durability where its needed most.

The building overlooks a sunken artificial turf field as part of Strathcona Countys park redevelopment. With vandal and abuse resistant design and tight cost constraints, the design maximized the functionality of the building and programme through a careful use of space. The design concept was to create a narrow path through two heavy masses, similar to walking through a valley in the woods, opening to an expansive vista to create a sense of grandeur and awe. Construction is schedules to be completed February of 2015.


River Valley Alliance: Pedestrian BridgeDesigner / Presentation

RECLAMATION: This design concept takes the experiences of navigating natures trails and integrates the tradition of box truss bridges seen throughout the river valley. By analyzing and quantifying the experiences produced in nature, this bridge concept aims to extend these influences into the built environment, while addressing the tectonic of a box truss. In order to understand the reclamation process, one must first understand the deconstruction of the built form, as these processes are interconnected. As nature forces itself on the existing structure, the structure responds. This back and forth process results in a path that no longer feels disconnected from nature, but rather as a hybrid between nature and structure.

River Valley Alliance + Stantec Architecture 2011 Pedestrian Bridge Concepts

The Capital Region River Valley Park presents the surrounding communities and municipalities with a tremendous opportunity to preserve, protect, and enhance a world renowned park system. The sheer size of this park system and its ability to connect communities and their residents to places of activity, recreation, and nature make the continued protection and enhancement of the park system a high priority for our city. Four pedestrian bridge concepts are explored in this document. They will allow for an extended network of trails to be constructed connecting new and existing communities.

Legislature Annex and Changeroom PavilionAs part of the Legislature Grounds master plan, we were tasked with the feasibility study of demolishing the Legislature Annex while maintaining the basement levels, as well as adding a changeroom pavilion for the fountains. There were several code and logistical challenges with the Annex building which required a strong understanding of the Alberta Building Code and building functions, both existing and proposed. The changeroom pavilion was an addition to an existing stair pavilion that services the underground pedway system. The design needed to be respective of the proposed stair pavilion to the north while addressing orientation, circulation and connectivity to the fountains and paths.

Camosun Centre Health + WellnessDesigner / Client Liason / Project Coordination / Presentation

The concept plan for the Centre for Health + Wellness at Camosuns Interurban Campus is intended to analyze, relocate and expand their existing health and wellness, currently located on their Lansdown Campus. The overall building concept is about making connections to nature, while connecting the PISE building with the rest of the campus. These conections are made visually and physically. This is done through the use of a central atrium, an exterior collonade, a theraputic garden carved into the landscape and an internal grid structure, which repurposes the internal streets for collaboration spaces that connect to nature. The building form is a result of preserving views from PISE, creating intuitive entrances and emphasizing collaboration and flex space.

Trinity College Student Residence

Blewbury School Renovation

Design Lead / Project Coordination / Presentation / Production

Design Lead / Project Coordination / Presentation / Production

Eighteen dormitories serviced by four staircases are attached to six seminar rooms and one theatre hall. This program is situtated on Trinity College lawns, adjacent to the library quadrangle. The design scheme ties the existing dormitories into the new ones with shared public spaces. The dormitories receive natural light through a series of light wells on the south facade because of their close proximity to the property boundary wall. This new backdrop to the lawn creates a dynamic environment that is active at any time of day. The theatre hall can perform both as a student auditorium and a small public theatre, depending on demand.

This project was intended to provide an additional classroom and a breakout space that functions as a community room when not in use by the school. The design was intended to provice spaces that can function independantly as well as together. The fenestration is designed to accommodate the occupants. In the classroom, the window heights are at eye level with the children, where as in the community room, they are tailored to adults. With movable partitions and a sensitive response to sightlines, Blewbury primary school has the potential to give back to the community while creating a unique and exciting place for students to learn.

The proposed 23 storey mixed-use housing/commercial/professional tower would be the tallest and first of its kind in the City of Edmonton. The housing typology is geared towards aging-in-place. Of the 23 storeys, the first three storeys would be commercial/professional, with an emphasis on healthcare facilities. The following five storeys are intended to serve as supportive living and self contained sceniors apartments. The remaining floors are independant living units, including condominiums, life-lease and co-housing. All floors will have access to the shared amenities located on the 6th floor, which serves as an indoor and outdoor space.

This housing typology is also a new economic model for supportive living facilities. With an aging population and limited government funding for assisted living facilities, this model, with the sale of market units on the upper levels, allows for a self sufficient development. This, coupled with families that wish to age in place, creates a community environment for a broad age range, conveniently located adjacent the downtown core and in the heart of the future quarters development.

Located in the heart of China Town, the tower has been designed to incorporate courtyards, arcades and a material language of traditional Chinese Architecture.

MULTI-FAMILY HOUSING: ADAPTIVE REUSEARLINGTON APARTMENT

Arlington Apartment RedevelopmentMany of Edmontons aging properties are being torn down to make way for taller and more contemporary structures, but there are some buildings that hold significant cultural and historic value, therefore a solution must be generated in order to not only preserve these structures, but to better suit them for the needs of the future. Their continued value through adaptive reuse would allow for both a new programme, as well as the preservation of a building that defines the character of the city. The Arlington is one of these buildings. After suffering a fire in 2005, the Arlington was left in a decaying state, destined to be demolished. This historic property, constructed in 1909, was Edmontons first apartment building and new housing model for the city. It is fitting that it be redesigned as a new strategy in housing through its careful redevelopment. This design will address the tectonic and social implications of the adaptive reuse of the Arlington in order to sensitively respond to the existing deteriorating condition, as well as the surrounding urban context


This thesis investigates the tectonic and social interactions created

through the adaptive reuse of the Arlington Apartments. This thesis will provide a new

typology, promoting urban living at the human scale by providing walk-up, flexi-housing that is both affordable and sustainable. It addresses the tectonic interaction between the new and old architecture, creating a habitable threshold through a legible architecture. It also provides various degrees of social spaces for the tenants and the general public. This thesis serves as an example to help densify Edmontons

downtown core while providing an active streetscape.
