‘Gator Boots’ was designed by Dominic Peternel and Stephen Coorlas in Paul Preissner’s studio “High Contrast” at the University of Illinois-Chicago spring semester 2010. The studio focused its efforts on blending shape and form in order to create a newly identifiable visual type and also looked to rearrange visual expectations resulting in the growth and creation of new audiences.
Transitions and uniformities are explored in this characterized architecture. ‘Gator Boots’ strives to achieve the perfect blend of typical building-shape and atypical geometric-form. These gestures respond to sequenced interior programming, which follow a Ground/Public/Extend versus Vertical/Private/Contract format. A uniform façade pattern was used to envelop its morphing and contrastive personalities.
