Pufferbelly Depot, Apadptive Reuse - Cie Goulet

This was a school project based on Adaptive Re-Use of an old Train depot in Pullman, Wa

This project started with a photograph of train wheels, from that I developed a concept of curved and straight lines, complementing each other through contrast.
The train depot was built in the 1900’s, and was to be turned into a residence for a local artist, along with a gallery and artist studio. The artist I chose was Cie Goulet who creates paintings through the art of printmaking.
In this design I wanted to create a craftsman style home for her and her blind spouse. There are also many other examples of this residence being a craftsman home, such as the built in cabinetry, window seats and the lantern style chandeliers. Within the home I also used the idea of complimenting circular and angled lines in the floor plan and in the space itself.
