Abstract
Students planned and designed a new downtown “Enoteca,” Italian for a local and regional agricultural library, in Downtown Eugene, Oregon. The Enoteca is a space to educate the public about southern Willamette Valley wine production. In addition to the Enoteca, the program includes a ballroom and a restaurant providing farm-to-table cuisine. In addition
to the program, students had the freedom to incorporate any other use they believed would enhance the city of Eugene lifestyle and needs. The location, on Willamette Street, would help enhance the LTD’s Eugene Station environment and expand an active part of Downtown Eugene.
The city of Eugene and LTD envision the site ideally including a housing component to increase housing density in Downtown Eugene. Currently, downtown is an “eight to five” business district; increased housing could help improve activity after business hours.
Sustainable design solutions were proposed, beginning with:
a) Setting a budget and a program.
b) Establishing a rule for the design solutions to include the AIA Cote Ten Measures.
c) Create a project schedule.
A budget is an architect’s road map. The measures are the soul of the project. The schedule is the “road map + soul = profit.”
