INSTITUTE OF AEROSPACE TECHNOLOGY
Isolated from the city, the masterplan for the Institute of Aerospace Technology is conceived as a progressive transformation of the traditional university campus plan. The organizational structure of this proposal is constructed from a typological study of the “court” scheme prevalent in late 19 th century academic planning, in conjunction with the notion of movement, order, and flight, thematic in airport design.

R.A.W. proposes a residential-industrial urban community that reinscribes the legacy of the Wilmore neighborhood in Charlotte, North Carolina. It aims to provide flexible economics that permit families to lease backyard micro-units, creating a small-scale, affordable “alley urbanism.” It also allows business owners to lease live/work spaces as part of an inclusive “maker network” along Mint Street, transforming a former industrial corridor into an incubator zone for small business development.

The Wilmore Neighborhood acts as a link between the mostly white population southwest of Charlotte’s urban core and the Black and Hispanic neighborhoods to the northwest. Currently this transition zone is threatened by gentrification, with affluence creeping northward into African-American neighborhoods. RAW intends to be a neutralizing agent, a point of resistance for maintaining mixed income levels by seeding a movement to increase economic and social diversity.
Activists have been aggressive in their fight against domestic gentrification, aligning the problem with the history of cultural take-over as a contemporary form of colonialization. The proposal for R.A.W. attempts to diversify leasing, ownership, and densification of inner urban sites in order to allow diverse living opportunities.
