Sterling Community Center
A once proud and thriving community, Sterling community has fallen to minimal influence. The community has become rundown since the linchpin of the town burned down in 1967; the high school. We were given a parcel in Sterling to create a new community, culture and, business incubation center.
Program Optimization
For the first stage I worked through 3 different layouts for the program of the site. By doing this I was working through how best to have every part of the program become effective in impacting this community.
Facade Study
With the program layout decided I began developing a design and aesthetic language for the site. By blending past influences and looking to the future I worked through the best look to ignite growth for this area.
Final Development
It all compiled into a final board showcasing my approach to igniting the growth of this area. A few of the program elements were dropped in the final with focused design on the Business Center, the Farmers Market, and the Community Center.
