WICKED PROBLEMS “ A class of social system problems which are ill-formulated, where the information is confusing, where there are many clients and decision mak-ers with confusing values, and where the ramifications in the whole sys-tem are thoroughly confusing. ” —Horst Rittel, 1960s

scenario onerepresents a meditation

room or a sanctuary.a subtly illumined

curtain of evenly spaced panels casts a spray of

shadow inducing a sense of calm, peaceful

motion.

scenario tworepresents chaos anddisorientation.gashes of light createdby luminous ceiling,wall, and floor createan effect of electrifyingmovement.

our objective is to demonstrate thatlight can alter the appearance andemotional effect of a space.employing two different kinds oflamps allowed us to create twodramatically different effects withinthe same space. this allowed us tochange the mood of the space from aserene and tranquil environment to anexhilarating and thrilling environment.

VILLA XL - GROUP 2

The villa featured is the largest lot size available measuring 61’ x 147’. Inspired by the classical manners of the English Country-side and historic Savannah, Georgia the Villa XL is 9,000sf and features four bedrooms, a guest suite, and staff quarters for six. The plan was designed around a classical Palladion model allowing for grande open spaces for entertaining all while being a comfortable international retreat for both family and guests.

This sponsored collaborative studio project involved students from the Department of Architecture and Interior Design in the School of Building Arts. The design teams were assigned the task to create a set of design criteria that would be utilized in each of the prototype villas to create an integrated brand im-pression for the community. They focused on the prototypical residential segment of the development which included four prototype Villas configured as follows:

. Villa S - 250 square yards each

. Villa M - 500 square yards each

. Villa L - 750 square yards each

. Villa XL - 1000 square yards each
