New windows with the same paint on the frames will help maintain the look, while being updated at the same time.
Landscaping needs to be done to get rid of overgrown weeds and create a more appealing exterior space.
Greenhouse needs to have new materials installed to be functional and visually pleasing at the same time.
Interior woodwork needs to be repainted in a lighter color to brighten up the space, or sanded down to be stained a lighter color.
Dining room fireplace could use a better mantel to allow for a better focal point for the space.
Kitchen needs a huge repair, new cabinets, appliances, walls, and more natural light.
New lighting fixtures throughout the building will give the interiors a newer look without taking away the charm of the space.
Get rid of the stonework in the bedroom around the fireplace chimney, since it is not an actual fireplace.
The spaces within were very large and open with very few dividing
walls. This allowed an abundance of natural light to enter the space,
making it perfect for an art center. The materials used for this Figure 1
structure were brick, steel, concrete, and cast-iron columns.
The problems with this space was the noisiness, being so close to the
railway. And there was a lot of dust all over that had a high lead
content (Heritage Council Victoria).
The architecture firm created 2 large theaters. One seats 300 and the
other seats 800. There is a smaller gallery, and three rehearsal rooms,
a caf, a bar, exhibition spaces, a scenery construction workshop, and
offices.
The new theaters and rehearsal spaces have been transformed into
rectilinear, acoustically isolated, insitu concrete containers.

Universal Design
Wider door and hallway widths
Adjustable counters
Make sure plumbing is updated so there is proper vent, waste, and supply piping provided to each bathroom and the kitchen.
Electrical systems should be checked for any loose wires or any fire hazards within the walls. Outlets near sinks should also be checked to ensure that GFCI
outlets are being used.
Sustainable Design
Lighting Make use of the natural light as much as possible when figuring out the lighting scheme for the
spaces. Where artificial light is needed, use LEDs, halogens, and compact fluorescent bulbs save energy and
have a longer life.
Paints/Finishes Use non-toxic and non-pollutant products when selecting the paint and other finishes for the
interior and exterior of the building. This will ensure to not harm the indoor air quality.
Furniture When possible, use local furniture manufacturers. Make sure that the furniture is from a source that
promotes safe manufacturing processes. Also, look into their line of fabrics and finishes to see what green
applications they use to make sure their products are green.
Daylight Control Provide a daylight control system that will automatically shut blinds based on the direction
of the sun and how much heat is entering the space. This will help control the temperature of a room and help
to reduce the use of energy to help heat/cool a space.
Historic Preservation
Using bubble diagrams and adjacency matrices to figure out the functional relationships of spaces is a very
productive method.
Group public spaces together and private spaces together. This will allow the spaces to flow and not
interrupt one another.
Consider dining spaces where people will take breaks for lunch, etc. These spaces should be in close
proximity to kitchens so the occupants can access food, appliances, etc., with ease.
Living spaces should be separate from office spaces to keep noise away from spaces where concentration is
important.
Bedrooms should be in close proximity to bathrooms so the occupants dont need to go far to use the
bathroom.
Utility rooms are typically placed close to the kitchen since a lot of tasks are completed in this area. They can
also be placed near a side entrance to avoid messes in living spaces and noise from washers and dryers.
English Tudor Revival
During the second half of the 19th century, the Tudor style of architecture was given a new breath of life. This style was later
developed in the US towards the last quarter of the 19th century. The characteristics of this style are very distinct:
Asymmetrical facades
Arrangements of tall, narrow multilight windows in bands; often casements and occasionally diamond-paned
This project needs to retain its historic characteristics while being brought up to date for the modern world. The interior
spaces need to be universally designed so all types of people can use them. Whether young, old, or disabled, these people
should be able to access each space with just as much ease as those who dont have any problems or disabilities.
Each space needs to have a focus on sustainability. The materials, finishes, furnishings, and lighting all need to be
environmentally-friendly so they dont leave a huge footprint, while also damaging the original details of this building.
The floor plan should remain the same, but with changes in the material arrangement in order to be eco-friendly and
durable at the same time. Materials should have a long life and also be able to withstand a lot of wear and tear since many
people will be coming in and out of these spaces.
Overall, the building will be renovated to be suitable for the 21st century, while still holding the architectural charm from
when it was built. The structure will be welcoming and useful.
Codes & Accessibility Analysis
This building is a mixed-use occupancy type. The maximum occupancy load is between 50 to 75 people.
Total OL = 163, so at least 1 water closet for men and 1 water closet for women.

Justification
The selections for the first retail option have a very modern, energetic, and sophisticated aesthetic. The color palette is
what gives this whole design some energy with the pops of bright lime green. All of the paint is latex with no VOCs, which
wont effect the air quality of the spaces. For the flooring, a light oak hardwood and grey linoleum blends in nicely with the
paint colors. The hardwood adds some texture and will keep the space light with the natural light bouncing off of it. For the
cabinetry, a dark-stained linoleum gives some contrast to the rest of the space. The quartzite countertops give the
cabinetry a nice high-end touch. Finally, for the furniture, a clean-lined dining table with a marble top and dining chairs
with the same base silhouette creates a polished look in the break room. This table can also be used for displaying items in
the showroom.
For the second retail option, the design scheme is more relaxed with softer tones that are calming. The color palette is a
light blue, taupe, and soft white. This design has a more rustic, shabby chic aesthetic with the finishes and colors. As stated
before, all of the paints used are latex with no VOCs. The flooring selections are a light tan cork and natural bamboo. These
are both very durable and last for a long time. Theyre also relatively cheap which makes them a great choice for
commercial applications. For the cabinetry, a white, worn-out finish adds to the rustic character of this design scheme. The
countertops are grey soap stone which creates a nice contrast next to the cabinetry and flooring. This material is also very
durable and is Greenguard Indoor Air Quality certified. And finally, the furniture keep the relaxed aesthetic going in the
break room with a teak petal dining table and grey upholstered chairs with oak legs. The balance between the teak table
top and the oak legs of the chairs brings these pieces together nicely.

The color palettes for the office and event spaces were focused more on subdued colors to allow the occupants to relax and
focus on the tasks at hand. For the classroom and laboratory spaces, the color palettes were more bold with some pops of
bright color to allow for some energy to enter the space. The furniture selections for each space followed a minimalist
approach to allow for more breathing room within the spaces. The restrooms were all designed with a calm and modern
aesthetic. Flooring for the spaces vary from carpet tile, to resilient sheet, to slate tile to give some contrast and texture to
the spaces. Every element is commercial grade and sustainable, which will not only last a long time, but will also help
reduce the environmental footprint on the earth.
