High Speed Rail Station Area Plan The California High Speed Rail will connect Los Angeles and San Francisco in less than three hours, having in Bakersfield the median of its route. Knowing this station has the capacity of concentrating services and densifying development downtown, the project 4
focuses on the connection between station location and the historic core. The aim of this project is to envision how to strengthen identity and dynamicity through infill development, transit enhancement, and pedestrian prioritization.

An Airport New City This large scale and complexity project envisions a city for 2 million residents, developed around the new international airport. Aiming to attract and nourish talent, Chengdu Tianfu is primed to lead economic and industrial development, providing high quality urban 10
life, celebrating the connection of people to nature and the world every day. The ecological strategy is to leverage the regional natural resources in order to provide a natural and healthy living environment, that is resilient and low carbon, through cleansing and cycling its resources.
Organic Circulation Network
To respect and protect the natural waterways, the street network seeks to follow a rather organic network in contrast to a Cartesian grid.
Mix of Uses
Mixing residential uses with offices and retail on the ground level, it seeks to be a vibrant city.
Natural - Urban Connection
Always celebrating the connection between inner and outer spaces and the integration of natural and built spaces, the airport city aims to be healthy and resilient.

development, this competition seeks not only to add the next generation Regional Park and accompanying trail system in Kansas City, but also rethink traditional suburban development within as opposed to on top of a natural setting.

Regenerative Approach RegenCities is a research initiative looking to move beyond a sustainable framework, implementing the regenerative concept into the urban practice. “Regeneration ” is defined as the renewal of a system, using surplus as a resource of a closed-loop process. 18
This initiative uses methodology uses the analysis of georreferenced information to identify indicators of urban health. This way, it is possible to understand the problems and then target appropriate regenerative strategies. To re-balance the top-down research and empower bottom-up change, a video series adds a community-driven “layer” to the broader effort.

City’s surplus property Remake LA, the South LA Economic Regeneration As a pilot project of the RegenCities initiative in collaboration with LA City, this effort recognizes the need for a new economic development model, in which the community actively drives and benefits directly from local participation and civic investments. It offers 22
a web-based platform for community-empowered economic redevelopment, providing open data and helping diverse actors work together to achieve the existing community’s goals. The aim is to achieve a better jobs/housing balance and revitalize the community through economic opportunity from the ground up.

Community-Driven Project SOM interviewed entrepreneurs, community leaders, educators, and decision-makers, seeking to better understand their point of view of what South LA is, what they see as issues or challenges, and what prospects they see for their community.
Catalytic Project We envisioned a catalytic project built from existing assets, that generates jobs and opportunities from within, in a progressive, closed-loop cycle of economic prosperity.

Sacred Ground Ranch The masterplan seeks to respond to the resident’s daily demands, stimulating the contact with nature through parks, paths and playgrounds on the conservation buffers. To address the demographic diversity of Aguas Lindas, different housing typologies are distributed 26
across the built environment, prioritizing affordable development and transit connection. Single family housing, for representing a less impactful occupation, is placed closer to the rivers green buffers. Ribbons were located where the topography is flat and towers occupy the sloped areas.

Sustainable Los Angeles 2050 - Grand Challenges This research originated two publications that mark the first visual attempt of imagining what the future might look like in Los Angeles. The goal was to address and conceptualize the energy, water, and ecosystem goals laid out by the UCLA Sustainable LA Grand Challenge 34
while keeping in mind the extra 1.5 million predicted residents. The reports clarify what would it take to achieve 100% renewable energy, 100% locally sourced water, and enhanced ecosystem and human health. This research stirs up the discussion about public policies, way-of-living and the role of technology advancements.

City Stitching in Downtown LA Downtown LA, a CBD, Civic and Sports Center delimited by 3 major highways, has a great potential of attracting activities. However, it presents very low residential population, which increases the demand for commuting and parking. Creating a linear park 42
capping the sunken 110 freeway promotes conditions not only to attract but also retain residents in the area. Utilizing the highway strip as an area for a linear park allows the transformation of what is a barrier between Downtown and the rest of the Wilshire to a connective tissue that stitches together crucial social, economic and cultural spheres into one cohesive subsystem.

Music, Theater, Dance, Visual Arts and Literature This project, awarded 1st prize on the Atelier Vertical competition, proposes an architectural piece of urban resonance. The idea was to create an arts hub that would also act as a link between the University Campus and to one of the biggest transit corridors in Goiania, 48
Anhanguera Avenue. For that reason, the main body of the building is lifted, freeing the ground level for public use, making the different street levels accessible and offering retail and cafe as a program to promote activities in complementary times of the day and week. The metallic structure uses trellises to obtain large and free spaces, flexible for the multiple uses it will host.
