| 1310 | Reconstruction of the COA Greenhouse |
|
| Sketches, elevations, floor plans Roc's Comments: I started the program in Environmental Design at College of the Atlantic in 1974. We got a good sized grant for the Fund for Post Secondary Education to develop our curriculum. Part of the program was for the advanced students to do pro bono work in the community. The greenhouse was a student designed project and the site analysis done for a new Information building at the head of the island was another. Keith Miller the then superintendent paid the our class' token fee with a bag of silver dollars. We bought a radio. I think Tripp Royce, Wells Bacon, Patty Dodd, Megan and Carole Mananan were some of the students involved with these projects. |

| 1312 | Schematic Design for College of the Atlantic Auditorium and Site Plan |
|
| These are drawings of an Auditorium for College of the Atlantic. They are a good example of the extent of the COA campus and future plans in the early 80's. Stewart Brecher was hired to replace me as the teacher in Environmental design. He went to Judy Swazey, the president who had just replaced Ed Kaelber, and complained that I was still involved in the College. Judy decided to use nether of us for the design and hired Dan Sculley as their new architect for the project. There was a faculty member, Paul Dubois, who was an arsonist and Paul for unexplainable reasons burned down the original Campus building. Dan then designed the new Kaelber Hall- dining, library and classroom building and the College prospered from that point on. Long story. Toward the end of my work teaching and establishing a program in Environmental Design at College of the Atlantic I was asked to design a new auditorium for them. Sort of a swan song and thank you gift from the College. Harris Hyman and Barbara Sassaman and I did this. There were a number of alternative schemes presented and they settled on the one included here. There is a clever little 1/8th scale model with removable roof that goes along with these drawings. After I left the College, Stuart Brecher became the design teacher and complained to the new president of COA, Judy Swazey, that he should be the one to do the project. Judy took me to lunch and, while picking up the check, said she had decided to have neither of us do the project but put us on a committee to hire a third architect. Our committee hired Dan Sculley, an old friend, to do the new auditorium. Within the year Paul Dubois, a disgruntled COA teacher set the original Kaelber Hall on fire and it was totally destroyed. Sculley then did an excellent job designing a new Library/student center and Dining Hall in its place. By the time of its completion I was working in Philadelphia for the firm Venturi, Rauch, Scott-Brown and the college of the Atlantic decided to hire Turner Brooks (another friend and Yale classmate) to do a new Auditorium/Classroom building. When we returned to MDI in 1990 I was finally asked to do a project for COA, the reason we moved to MDI in the first place. The building we eventually completed was the Blair/ Tyson Dormitory. Sculley, Brooks and I sat within 2o feet of each other in graduate school and have been friend ever since. We went on to each do projects for Marlboro College in Vermont. The "three amigos" of New England architecture:) |

| 1212 | Blair/Tyson Dorms at College of the Atlantic |
|
| Elevations, floor plans, site plans, sketches, full construction set Roc Caivano, architect; Wells Bacon, student assistant; Lanpher Associates, engineers Roc's comments: Lou Rabineau, COA President asked us to design new dorms for COA. We did some research and learned that groups of 8 or less will take responsibility for their living environment but more than that number ignore their responsibilities to others. So we designed seven separate 8 bed apartments interconnected. The building form followed the real estate divisions of the of the old property lines, the geological shape of the land at the entrance to the Turrets and was meant to evoke images of older 19th century barns and stables and work buildings. The courtyard faced true south and brought fresh air and sun into every room. We came to MDI to work at the newly founded College of the Atlantic in 1974. I did any number of small projects and helped renovate the Turrets during those years but always wanted to do something of substance for them. When we returned from an extended "residency" working as an associate in the Venturi, Rauch and Scott Brown firm in Philadelphia, Lou Rabineau, the then president of the college, asked me to design a new dormitory for them. They had come a long way since our earlier struggling days and, I think Lou had a great deal to do with putting them on the right track. Todd Stanley, John Gordon, Wells Bacon and John De Fazio ( a Venturi colleague) all helped with this first large project. I did some research and found that groups of people in units of 8 or less were aware and cared for their common environment so we divided the dormitory into 7, 8 bed living units- each with kitchens common rooms and separated bathrooms on each floor. We oriented the clusters at the entrance to the Turrets where the old carriage house and servant facilities were once placed and treated the building form in the same detail and scale. We prepared the rooms so each got direct sunlight and fresh air and all opened onto a common courtyard. The single rooms were designed to code minimum doubles and the double rooms to code minimum triples which allowed the college to expand from the 56 beds used on a regular basis to a 74 bed capability in an emergency. All of this worked! The building has been the home for close to 2000 young students and survived in excellent form with very little maintenance. One of my proudest accomplishments ever. |
