LOTUS PARK

SITE ANALYSIS EXISTING SITE CONDITIONS

SITE CONTEXT

During this group project, the team was tasked to complete an in-depth site analysis and create a throughtful site design for an abandoned lot in Busan, South Korea. This site was initally meant to house a giant tower called the Busan Tower. This proposed tower and the existing LOTTE mall surrounding it, contrast the surrounding architecture, creating issues with human scale, not providing a inviting space to locals, and really only catering to the area’s tourists.

Capitalizing on this location, the site park design aims to become a bridge between the industrial and the commercial areas, to elevate portions of the site to provide breathtaking views of the Korean Strait, and to provide a more human-scale interface with the surrounding sites. Surrounded in a dashed pink line, is the extent of the site, including the mall. SOUTH KOREA

SITE ACCESSIBILITY The city has invested in a transit network including a subway which connects the entire city of Busan, many road ways, both smaller residential and primary, sidewalks, bus transit, and limited bike lanes. The design of this site was difficult as much of it is encircled by roads.

Site Extents Crosswalk

jagalchi market Korea’s largest seafood market, selling both live and dried fish. The market developed by people displaced by the Korean War out of necessity for them to find a way to make a living. Many vendors have been pushed from this space, which our site aims to open opportunity to.

DESIGN INSPIRATION COMMUNITY CONNECTION Taking inspiration from a famous lotus painting by Sunju Jin that was awarded the Korean National Minhwa Award in 2018, the concept for Lotus Park arose from scribblings on trace paper much like the lotus blooms arise from the muck. It is also very fitting that the painting received the Minhwa award, a genre of art created for the common people, as Lotus Park is for everyone.

DESIGN STRATEGY SUSTAINABILITY The main project goal was to create both a ecologically and socially sustainable design. We achieved this by providing equitable access throughout the site, supporting local economic systems, and through our selection of local materials (both soft and hardscape).

This studio primarily focused on guiding the students to understand the role of sustainability in design. It is a phrase often times used in talking about a design, but not actually utilized.

Additionally, the developments surrounding the site at present are largly unresponsive to the design standards generally followed in and near downtown Athens. Many of the newer apartment complexes feel large and out of place. The site presented many issues, including steep topography and large swaths of existing impervous surface. On the other hand, the large canopy trees and existing infrastructure aided in fulfilling my design goals.

The Oconee Gardens Suites’ design is intended to improve the quality of housing available to graduate students and students with families. Much of the available housing is older and located further away from the heart of downtown Athens. For the 9,000 graduate students that attend the university, it will act as an exciting new space. The design provides ample green space for lounging outdoors, shade to support outdoor studying and room for shildren to experience the oudoors in an urban environment.

One of the most exciting features on the site is the co working space + cafe area. Providing an easily accessible escape from your apartment provides a great respite from hours of studying in your apartment. Solar panels are located on the southern facing roofs of the buildings to reduce their environmental footprint as well. Parking near downtown Athens can often prove difficult. The existing parking lot located on the northern portion of the site will be converted into an underground parking deck with an additional level above. Two additional stories of studio and family\graduate housing will top off the provided parking. Providing an easily accessible escape from your apartment provides a great respite from hours of studying in your apartment. Overall, the design will create a new standard for resident’s ability to connect with the outside, comfortable living, proximity to the events of Athen’s downtown, and a more modern clean aesthetic.

CREATING COMMUNITY

Much of the existing housing meant for these students is located towards the southern portion of the University of Georgia campus, distancing them from the lively downtown area. Winter gardens are an important component to this design. The perspective rendering at the bottom of the page highlights the multiple uses they can provide for residents. The buildign modeled is shown outlined towards the middle of the design. The space provides ample green space for lounging outdoors and shade to support outdoor studying and room for children to experience the outdoors in an urban area.

Preserve specimen trees and reinforce existing forest canopy

Selected plants will create soft mounding affects throughout the site and year around interest. Most importantly, they will provide food and habitat for local wildlife. Outlined on the right towards the southern portion of the site, is a outdoor play area intended for the children of parents who live in the adjacent building(s). It includes multiple foot bridges, a sand dig pit, and embankment slide, all surrounded by old growth trees. This area is fenced in to allow for free play and fewer supervision responsibilities to the parents.

EAST ATHENS

DOWNTOWN

SITE LOCATION

This site is situated along the eastern side Athens, Georgia’s Oconee River. This site connects to other developed parks within Athens Clarke Co and is a great commodity to the community.

CONTEXT

RIVER PARK

Reconnecting the community of Athens with the river’s edge through passive and active use programming is a great way to facilitate an appreciation of nature in our residents. The primary issue facing the park today is inaccessibility and although the greenway will bring people through the site, thought must be placed into how to draw people from the greenway into the park itself. To achieve this integration, the revitalization of the North Oconee River Park East will focus on 4 main goals: community access, stormwater collection, community engagement, and preservation.

Athens’ busy downtown area is located to the west of the site. The the east is “East Athens” which is often associated with higher crime rates and it home to lower income members of the community.

ANTHONY

INFRASTRUCTURE QUALITY Amenties present on the site are remnants from the 80s when the site was last designed. These do not attract many visitors to the park.

POOR DRAINAGE Drainage ditches traverse the site, making the site difficult to move through and decreasing the water quality of the Oconee River.

SITE ACCESSBILITY There are no sidewalks leading to the site nor crosswalks leading from the sidewalk adjacent to the site making access dangerous. Improving site access will make the park safe.

Anthony, a previous resident of the area, recalls fond memories of spending time with old girlfriends at the park. Now when he feels down or sad, he retreats to the river’s edge for reflection. The park is generally something you drive past without much thought, according to Anthony.

EXPOSED In researching stormwater mitigation techniques along rivers that also have greenways, I found the Ferrous Foundry Park project by STIMSON in Massachusetts. This park incorporated a stormwater collection basin that runs parallel with the greenway itself. This is not only a great engineering technique but also allows the visitors to walk over the stormwater running off of the site. The plant species selected to frame the greenway also provide a great lush environment to increase the park’s diversity and habitat. Additionally, sections along the existing ACC greenway have presented flooding issues so severe, the greenway is unusable. Avoiding this is very important in this design.

INSIDE THE DESIGN PHOTOSHOP RENDERINGS Opposite: A community pavilion encourages collaborative efforts to foster positive relationships between members of the community. Top Left: A large stormwater conveyance structure will extend alongside the ACC green way to familiarize the citizens with stormwater management practices. Multiple smaller bioswales will carry water into the larger conveyance structure to help mediate the site’s current drainage issues. Bridges cross over the conveyance structure to connect the ACC green way to the North Oconee River East walkways. Top Right: The naturalistic children’s play scape supports the connection between children and the natural environment. Fruit, fragrance, and texture are all key components of the plantings of the space. Elements collected locally can be utilized to enhance the play experience, for example, large logs, sticks, and stumps. Seating extends from the pavilion into the play scape to provide a more comfortable play scape experience for parents as well.

PEDESTRIAN SAFETY | Traffic calming site photos + photoshop

Bottom Left: Access includes making the space physically accessible to everyone in the community and inclusive in an age/ socioeconomic sense. Ensuring the site follows ADA guidelines and promotes play amongst all ages will draw more visitors into the site without alienation. The addition of sidewalks, crosswalks, lighting and traffic calming mechanisms will facilitate pedestrian visitation to the site as well.

FAIRVIEW SCHOOL MASTER PLAN REPORT SMITH PLANNING GROUP Located in the small town of Cave Spring, Ga are the remnants of a historic Rosenwald School. This school was built for the education of African American students during the Jim Crow era and was in operation from 1925 until 1954. Our goal was to provide a holistic vision for the development of the property to create an educational destination for students, residents, and tourists to the area.

Working under the project manager, Wes Ryals, my role in this project included the production of the pattern book in InDesign, renderings using both Lumion and Photoshop, and conducting research about the surrounding area and geology.

IRON MOUNTAIN HOUSE NELSON BYRD WOLTZ prospect + refuge

The Iron Mountain House landscape, designed by the Nelson Byrd Woltz firm, is a seamless combination of the natural and built environment. This property was built atop an iron ore mining site, therefore much of the property is integrated into exposed rock. The site exhibits elements of enclosure in it’s intimate vegetable garden, and refuge in the home’s placement, overlooking a 300-acre farm. This project serves as a way for students to become familiar with iconic landscape architects and better understand basic design concepts.

The property overlooks expanses of restored meadows.
