THE EXPEDITION
Santa Cruz island, Galapagos, Ecuador MLA Thesis Project Thesis Instructor: Sareh Moosavi
Conservation is not just working on the land or solving a single point of issue. Landscape Design can take step in both physical and virtual space. This is a conceptual project of exploring a new approach of endemic species conservation by designing a future conservation model for Galapagos Giant Tortoises in Santa Cruz island. And it is aiming to establish a new relationship between the landscape and people both consciously and unconsciously involved. The project is trying to demonstrate that designs can stimulate positive human behaviors which lead to better conservation environment and scientific research situations.

THE GALAPAGOS EQUATOR
My study focus is the Migration route of tortoises. As it's the most important anual activity for this species and its also facing increasing disturbance of anthropogenic impacts along the journy.
Highland of Santa Cruz
MIGRATION ROUTE CONTOUR LINES TORTOISE MIGRANTION ROUTE-LUCY
ISSUES BASE MAP IS GENERATED BY GIS
GUAVA AREA Guava is a fast growing specie, it invades the land with an unpredictable way. and the fruits of it changed tortoise diets.

CEDRO TREE AREA Since the colonization of Cedro trees in the highland, the supporting species have been changed a lot. The 20m height space support many birds and fungi species and contain so much inform about the changing of the micro habitat.
PASTURE LAND Endemic scalesia forest had been used for pasture industry. Tortoises losing the thermal refuges for cooling down, many of them facing overheating problem.
AGRICULTURE LAND The heights and orientation of the cultivation directly influence migration. The unorganized plantations confused the tortoise navigation. Dramatically extend the passing time, then increasing the overheating risk of tortoises.

CONSERVATION LOCAL FARMER
SCIENTISTS Scientists have been recognized the only type can contribute to the local conservation. However, traditional tracking research is very costly and low efficient.
VISITORS Because of lacking farming and conservation knowledge, improper highland farm causes a series of problem to the ecosystem. Crazy growing blackberry is one of the example.
LOCAL FARMER Also, visitors have always been recognized as a negative impact to the biodiversity and no contribute to conservation.

THE CONSERVATION MODEL
GALAPAGOS CONSERVATION
The Cloud CONSERVATION CLOUD A virtual platform for data storage. All information can be use and categorize and value by scientist and people doing who doing the research.
The App THE CONSERVATION TOOL A mobile application, provide channel for data transfer, and also a tool to guide user through the whole board walking.
The Trail THE STORY TELLING STRUCTURE As a board walking in the land. A physical structure that use landscape as natural resource offer the opportunities for ecological observation and data collecting.

THE EXPEDITION TRAIL DESIGN UNFOLD THE LAYERS OF STORIES
For the trail design Using Four identified spots as stations. Each of them representative a story about tortoise’s conservation, carry all valuable information essential to conservation. Connecting those four stations with an elevated walking trail, Around 4km, walking could be finish from 1-3hour. The Trail is graded into four gradients has different level of physical activities. Resting and basic infra will be provide. Except Tortoises as the most iconic species could be observed during the whole trail, a large amount of it supporting species can be observed as well. All of these are strongly relevant to tortoise population and can indicate health condition of ecosystem.

MORE THAN THE WIND Kingston City Hall, Moorabbin,Victoria, Australia Heat in the Public Domain, 2016 Subject Instructor: Wendy Walls
Addressing the heat issue in urban context during Melbourne summer. This project has been exploring heat issue by applying different analysis tools and trying to find an affordable and flexible solution.This project uses Grasshopper for radiation and sun hour analysis, Climate Data illustration and analysis, Flowdesign wind testing. Then come up with a specific solution for the site. Rather than confuse on a mechanic solution, this project is aiming to active the whole site by using small interventions which suit site scale and local context. By applying a fabric structure, rain garden and misting device, the space is transforming from a heated courtyard to a vivid public space.

When the wind speed is more than 40km/h, individual temperature difference became relatively smaller in most of times.

When wind speed is below or around 20km/h, temperature of these six locations presented bigger difference.
Kingston Art centre located 3.5km east away from coastal area. The wind from west and south west direction will bring cooling effect. We find that when wind speed above 20km/h, and from south and south west direction. Art center shows in cooler condition in most of times. And the individual difference are relatively smaller.

DESIGN STRATEGIES
Instead of only providing functional device to overcome heat issue in summer time. The Spot was trying to reactivate the Art centre by emphasising and transforming the courtyard. Courtyard has been always an important spot both for art centre staff and some semi-public events. The street in front of the city hall also been used for public occasions. Encountering overheated situations is definitely an opportunity to involve this whole site. The spot, engaging the wind, humidity and solar exposure to achieve cooling purpose.

WILDY GOAT
Wildwood, Victoria, Australia MLA Studio4, 2016 Studio instrutor: Christopher Newman This project is aiming to reactivating Wildwood by introducing a development trigger – goat dairy industry. By considering natural resource and applying planning strategies, this town has been gradually transformed to a self-sufficient system by providing locals needs and exchanging economic values with Great Melbourne Area. The project has two stages. The first stage draws the outline of a self-sufficient system according to GIS analysis and applying strategic design. The second stage is focusing on smaller scale of the system to make sure landscape design suits to towns daily needs.

Geographically, Kanana Township is isolated by transportation infrastructure surrounds. So Kanana dwellers have been passively pushed to go to Gugulethu for all daily needs from infrastructure to daily commodities. All the children have to travel between 25 minutes to 78minutes to Gugulethu to go to school. And there is only one sports centre in this township, lacking outdoor activity space leads children anti-social behaviours. High crime rate presented concentration trend along Ny111 Road, and this is the only way to go to school for all children live in Kanana Township.

Safety and security are essential to all communities. This design is addressing those existing issues together as taking them as opportunities. Instead of putting modern CCTV technology as monitoring. Surveillance could be stimulated by modifying the poor conditions. Space designed open to view of public and then Community themselves are working in the surveillance process, providing sense of safety to children. Reclaiming vacant space for children`s out door playground as well as comfortable community space. The intends of this design are promoting sense of safety of the street, reusing vacant space, offering activity for local children. A comfortable street condition also helps creating positive sense of communal identity.
