1 ARCHITECTURE PORTFOLIO

2 Esteemed Members of the Board, This is my letter of intent to be considered for the professional program of Architecture at Andrews University. STEPHANIE HANDY Architecture has been my dream for a long time and, even though I have not always chosen the straightest path toward my goal, I feel blessed to have the opportunity to be chasing my dream at Andrews University. In 2015, I returned to school focused on pursuing and completing my degree in Architecture, and I have successfully completed the prerequisites to enter the professional program. Throughout the past two years at Andrews I have learned the value of hard work and perseveration in any task I am set. I have grown to appreciate the importance of every part of the education process and have been successful at managing my classes. In the these two years I have achieved top grades in all of my architecture courses as well as Studio Excellence Awards for both studio years. I plan to work just as hard for the next three years in order to complete a Bachelor s Degree in Architecture in 2019 and continue to the Master s Degree. I believe that the Andrews University School of Architecture and Interior design provides an excellent curriculum that prepares students for success in the real world and nurtures our spiritual growth. Thank you for the opportunity to be considered for the professional program. Sincerely, Stephanie Handy

20 20 MORTON HILL BARN PENCIL ON VELLUM SHEETS

21 A DESIGN PROPOSAL FOR MORTON HOUSE MUSEUM IN BENTON HARBOR, MI. A BARN TO REPLACE THE ONE THAT STOOD ON THE HISTORICAL SITE IN MORTON HILL. THE PROGRAM SHOULD PROVIDE A SPACE FOR EXHIBIT AND EVENTS, AS WELL AS A LARGE ARCHIVE AREA FOR THE STORAGE AND UPKEEP OF THE MUSEUM EXHIBIT PIECES. THE DESIGN FOCUSES ON THE USE OF EACH SPACE WHILE SEPARATING SERVICE, STAFF, AND GUEST ENVIRONMENTS. ADDITIONALLY, A SEPARATE, BUT CONTIGUOUS, SPACE IS PROPOSED FOR THE STORAGE AND IMPROVEMENT OF THE HISTORICAL TREA- SURES OF THE MUSEUM. 21

22 THE BARN: DESIGNED AS A TRADITIONAL GAMBREL, THE BARN IS A TIMBERFRAME STRUCTURE OF FOUR BENTS AND THREE BAYS. THE SPACE FURTHER ENHANCES THE BARN FEEL WITH EXPOSED SCISSOR TRUSSES THAT ALLOW MAXIMUM SPACE IN THE CENTER. THE JEWELBOX: THE ARCHIVE BUILDING WAS DESIGNED AS A CONNECTION BETWEEN MORTON HOUSE AND THE BARN. TAKING ELEMENTS FROM EACH, IT IS A SMALL TREA- SURE CHEST THAT CONTAINS THE MOST IMPORTANT ASSETS OF THE MUSEUM, THE ARTI- FACTS. 23
