Introduction

Studio 804, Inc. is a University of Kansas, not-for-profit 501(c)3 cor-poration. Participants include third-year graduate and fifth-year un-dergraduate students in the School of Architecture and Urban Plan-ning under the instruction of JL Constant Distinguished Professor DanRockhill. The students execute a process that involves working witheach other as both architects and builders to create structures that in-spire growth in neighborhoods that have lacked development in recentyears. All Studio 804 projects adhere to standards of the highest qual-

ity both in design and fabrication, and they address important issues ofenvironmental sustainabi lity, energy efficiency, and accessibility. Thestructures are unique, architectural designs that fully address impor-tant issues pertinent to the professional field.

Wood Reclamation

The Sunflower Army Ammunition Plant outside of DeSoto,Kansas began operations in 1942 specializing in the manu-facturing of smokeless powder and propellants. The 9,065acre site has been abandoned since 1992 and is undergo-ing a decontamination process of some one-thousand retiredammunition buildings from volatile toxins and explosives.

For the last two years, Studio 804 has secured the right toharvest environmentally clean materials. In 2008, one struc-ture was disassembled (previous page) and lumber was re-used in the 5.4.7. Arts Center in Greensburg, Kansas.

This year Studio 804 plans again to demolish a magazinebuilding and, in addition to the dimension lumber andsheathing being recycled, will reconstitute the existing trussmembers into a structurally supporting roof scissor truss.The reclamation of Douglas-fir highlights the initiative to leadsustainable construction practices.

Sustainable Concepts

A broad southern exposure makes the best use of passive sustainable concepts; therefore,the long and narrow building is placed towards the northern-most edge of the site. Theelongated, thin profile of the site also determines its slender building form.

A double height western atrium expands the living spaces of the home into the woodedreserve to the west. A central core buffers these living spaces from the private bedrooms.The first floor core consists of a kitchen, rest room, and mechanical rooms.

Active systems are planned for integration throughout the building, including grey waterreclamation and reuse, as well as solar panels which push energy back onto the electrical

grid through net metering. In addition, a geothermal heat pump utilizes the constanttemperatures below grade to reduce heating load the building requires.

This building acts as a prototype for the region, as it will, we hope, be the fist LEED Platinumhome in Kansas as well as the first home to primarily use renewable energy sources inWyandotte County. Sustainable and recycled products and finishes, as well as reusedwood, are also employed throughout the building.

Sustainable Goals

With the increasing global applicability and relevance of sustainable design, we believe ourtrack record will continue to spur such building practices in Kansas City and the greaterregion. Our goals for this project include:

Stimulate growth in an area that has become stagnant in terms of residential innovation.

Promote sustainable architecture by providing a local prototype that showcases state-of-the-art technologies.

Demonstrate how utilizing active and passive systems can reduce operational costs.

Achieve LEED for Homes Platinum certification provided by the United States Green Build-ing Council (USGBC) to attest to our efforts.

Within the parameters of local codes, use LEED Platinum Certification as a spring board toattain the more stringent standards set forth by the Living Building Challenge.
