Project List
Christopher Drinkwater
Village Hill - Hillside Place • 2008Northampton, MA
Dietz & Company, Architectswww.dietzarch.com
The projected was a part of a mixed use redevelopment on the site of a closed mental health hospital. The project added 40 units of new Energy Star certifi ed aff ordable housing, spread across six buildings. I was a member of the design team from schematic design through design development, and was responsible for:
• developing initial fl oor plan and massing schemes in collaboration with the Project Architect;• creating a BIM digital model that was used for the generation of renderings, plans and elevations;• detailing the project through the creation of wall sections and construction details;• assisting junior staff in the completion of their tasks.
Easthampton Savings Bank • 2007Westfi eld, MA
Dietz & Company, Architectswww.dietzarch.com
The client purchased a property containing two homes of historic value to the community. Working with both stakeholders, we developed a scheme that preserved one of the homes and relocated a timber frame barn off site. The design of the bank branch takes formal cues from the Italianate style of the home to create an addition that provides for the needs of the bank without disrupting the historic context of its surroundings.I was responsible for documenting existing site conditions through fi eld notes and photography and then creating a BIM model of the building and site. I then worked with the project architect to develop programming options, renderings and a preliminary drawing set from the BIM model.
building area/cost: 3,500 SF/ $1.5 M
Caring Health Center • 2011Springfi eld, MA
Dietz & Company, Architectswww.dietzarch.com
The project consisted of rehabilitating three adjacent historic buildings from the early 20th
century into a medical facility for a non-profi t health care provider. I was brought in as a freelance consultant for one month to bridge between a period where the fi rm lacked available qualifi ed staff at the level of Job Captain. Working with the project architect I assisted with:
• coordinating the drawing set and scheduling the work fl ow to meet tight deadlines; • researching materials and detailing building components; • producing red line drawings and directing junior staff in the completion of their tasks.

Holten-Richmond Middle School • 2006Danvers, MA
DiNisco Design Partnershipwww.dinisco.com
The project entailed integrating two existing 1930’s era school buildings with the addition of contemporary core facilities and new classrooms. The design needed to respect the historic character of the original buildings and surrounding neighborhood while conforming to a highly restrictive set of site constraints. Working in collaboration with the Project Architect, we produced multiple schematic design proposals that we refi ned toward a design development submission. The building was completed subsequent to my departure from DiNisco Design Partnership.

Borinquen Court Apartments • 2011New York, NY
The goal of this speculative project was to demonstrate competency in the use of Revit as a design and documentation tool. I choose a site in New York and designed the residential component of a mixed-use building. The building’s confi guration makes use of both skip-step and traditional fl at apartment layouts. The structure of the building utilizes precast concrete columns, beams and long-span double-T’s. The exterior walls alternate between cross laminated timber structural panels with wood plank siding and masonry in-fi ll walls with an EFIS fi nish.
