2 Building Location COSI (Center Of Science and Industry) is located on the west bank of the Scioto River at 333 West Broad Street, Columbus, Ohio

3 Primary Project Team Owner: COSI Columbus Architect: Arata Isozaki NBBJ Architects General Contractors: Ruscilli Construction Engineers: Civil: Moody/Nolan LTD. Structural: Korda/Nemeth Electrical/Mechanical: H.A. Williams & Associates

4 Building Overview Size: 320,000 square foot Cost: $125,000,000 Construction Dates: Began in 1997 and ended in November Features: Exhibition areas Extreme Screen Theater Big Science Park High wire unicycle Restaurant

5 COSI houses interactive, discovery-based and themed exhibit areas for adults and children. Building Function

6 Building Statement The fun of discovery, the thrill of accomplishment -- that feeling of I did it! -Kathryn D. Sullivan, CEO of COSI

7 Concept Development COSI s Mission is to provide an exciting and informative atmosphere for those of all ages to discover more about our environment, our accomplishments, our heritage, and ourselves.

8 Concept Development According to architect Arata Isozaki, the east side of COSI, the section constructed of the former high school, "speaks about tradition, memory, the past," and the new west side "speaks about innovation, hope, the future."

9 Inspiration Non-Uniform Dynamic Concept Development Intriguing Thrill Fun High Variance Excitement The Kaleidoscope Dramatic

10 Concept Development The new lighting scheme for the west side of the building will represent: Innovation and Excitement

11 Spaces for Redesign Gadgets Big Science Park Extreme Screen Theater Lobby

12 Schematic Design: The Lobby

13 Space Layout: Lobby

14 Space Function: Lobby Circulation Gathering place Viewing of items

15 Glass Skylights Space Characteristics: Lobby Exhibit Display

16 Design Goals: Lobby Smooth transition from exterior to interior Create open, inviting environment Provide appropriate light levels according to time of day Provide a visual link between the lobby and spaces that deviate from it Highlight exhibit area Incorporate Daylight more efficiently and effectively by introducing a louver system

17 Design Development: Lobby Surface mounted fluorescent strips used for ambient light Track light to highlight logo Daylight heavily used to provide for ambient light Track lighting used to highlight display

18 Schematic Design: Gadgets

19 Space Layout: Gadgets

20 Space Function: Gadgets Interactive exhibit areas Workstations Viewing of gadgets Viewing of display items

21 Space Characteristics: Gadgets Built in exhibit areas (wood, plastic, and metal) Acoustic Metal Ceiling System Acoustic Panel Walls Concrete Floors Built in wood work stations

22 Design Goals: Gadgets Create an environment that resembles that of a laboratory High variance throughout space Non-uniform lighting pattern Highlight display items hanging from ceiling Provide sufficient illuminance levels over work stations

23 Highlight display objects with track lighting Wash walls with blue light Cold cathode ring around workstation numbers Blue cold cathode ring over workstations to provide for task lighting Design Development: Gadgets Use track lighting to provide for task lighting in reading displays

24 Schematic Design: Extreme Screen Theater

25 Space Layout: Extreme Screen Theater

26 Space Function: Extreme Screen Theater Viewing of 3d movies

27 Space Characteristics: Extreme Screen Theater Acoustic Metal Ceiling System Acoustic Wall Panels Carpet Floors Display Cases for Food

28 Design Goals: Extreme Screen Theater Create a pleasing, distinctive environment Create adequate visibility for circulation at all times Provide comfortable viewing conditions

29 Design Development: Extreme Screen Theater Fluorescent downlights to provide for circulation and ambient light Stair mounted blue and white LED strips to provide for safe circulation

30 Schematic Design: Big Science Park

31 Space Layout: Big Science Park

32 Space Function: Big Science Park Interactive outdoor exhibit areas Display items

33 Space Characteristics: Big Science Park Concrete/Pavement Exhibit Displays Metal/Aluminum Siding

34 Design Goals: Big Science Park Create a safe, but distinctive environment Provide a smooth transition from the interior to exterior Highlight exhibit areas with hidden sources Provide general lighting using area sources Highlight sculptures to make them sparkle Avoid Light Trespass to Adjacent Street

35 Design Development: Big Science Park Provide area sources using metal halide lamps Uplights used to graze sculpture Organic light admitting diodes used to illuminate exhibit

36 Schematic Design: Summary Allow for a lighting scheme that is innovated and exciting Allow for non-uniform lighting in each space Highlighting and accentuation Allow for high variance in each space Incorporate daylight
