IMPERMANENCE PARK
THE CHALLENGE WAS TO DESIGN AN INSTITUTION WITHIN A PARK SPACE THAT SHOWED A RELATIONSHIP WITH THE SURROINDING COMMUNITY.

I CHOSE TO USE LANDFORMS, CANTILEVERS, TERRACED GARDENS AND SOIL REMEDIATION TO TEACH THE COMMUNITY ABOUT THEIR CONNECTION TO NATURE.

IMPERMANENCE PARK PROVIDES GAINESVILLE A WAY TO EXPRESS ITSELF AND TO LEARN THE PROCESS OF BIO REMEDIATION. THE 1,000 S.F. BIOREMEDIATION LAB IS A LIVING MACHINE. THE LANDFORM, THAT IS THE STRUCTURE HOLDS MODULAR COMPARTMENTS FOR SOILS WITH DIFFERENT CONTAMINATION LEVELS. MANY SPECIES OF PLANTS ARE INSTALLED AND GLASS WATER LINES CONSTANTLY SHOW THE TRANSLUCENCY OF THE RUNOFF WATER. THE PUBLIC CAN SEE THE SOILS BECOMING CLEANER WITH TIME. THE CANTILEVER AND IMPRESSED PLAZA INVITE VISITORS TO REPOSE AND ENJOY THE PARKS FUNCTION. A TERRACED MEDUL DATE PALM GARDEN WRAPS THE VISITORS IN A DRAMATIC DISPLAY OF NATURES BEAUTY.

RIO DE JANEIRO IS A VIBRANT CULTURAL HUB. ITS DENSE URBAN LIFE HAS MULTIPLE FORMS OF TRANSPORTATION AND GREENSPACES THAT ARE LOUDLY AND PROUDLY DESIGNED. I ANALYSED THE URBAN AND GREEN SPACES OF RIO DE JANEIRO. THE EXPLORATION BROUGHT ME TO UNDERSTAND THE CULTURAL EXPRESSION OF THE AREA. STUDYING THE ART AND LITERATURE OF ROBERTO BURLE MARX INDOCTRINATED ME INTO THE BEAUTY OF THE CITY AND ITS NATURAL SPACES. SKETCHUP: URBAN ARCHITECTURE A

THE URBAN BLOCK IN RIO DE JANEIRO IS A COLORFUL EMULATION OF ITS PEOPLE. SHOPS AND CAFES LINE THE BASE OF MIX USE HIGH RISES. PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION IS AVAILABLE AND PUBLIC ART BRINGS THE SPACE TO LIFE. 9
PARQUE DU FLAMENGO IS MORE THAN THREE MILES LONG. IN IT IS A SKATE PARK, TENNIS COURTS AND SOCCER FIELDS, MUSEUMS, AND MEMORIALS. PEOPLE ARE ATTRACTED TO THESE PUBLIC AMENITIES BY THE CURVEY MOSAIC PATTERN THAT LINES THE PARK. THE PARK HAS MUTLIPLE USES AND OPENS THE WATERFRONT TO THE PUBLIC.

CONCEPT DIAGRAMS
WISDOM PARK THROUGH THE USE OF EFFIGY, TIME, AND MAN’S RELATIONSHIP TO THE EARTH, I DEVELOPED A PARK THAT ALLUDES TO MAN’S JOURNEY FROM INFANCY TO ADULTHOOD. MOVING THROUGH THE PARK THERE ARE THREE MAIN SPACES. THESE SPACES RISE OUT OF THE EARTH, AS AN EFFIGY THAT RELATES TO THE LANDS NATIVE AMERICAN ROOTS. EACH SPACE SHOWS DIFFERENT COMPLEXITIES AND INTRICACIES. OVER TIME, MAN BECOMES WISER OUR KNOWLEDGE INCREASES, SO TO DO THESE SPACES: THEY INCREASE IN COMPLEXITY.

AT JUST HALF A MILE FROM PALM TRAN, THE MULTI-FAMILY COMMUNITY IS RICH WITH AMENITIES AND FLORIDA NATIVE PLANTS. IN AN ATTEMPT TO BE MORE EFFICIENT, THE CITY REQUIRED MINIMAL SOD, MAXIMIZE GREEN SPACE AND PROMOTE THE USE OF PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION
