PERSONAL STATEMENT My name is Hwamok Kim. I am a Korean student, who is trying to accomplish my goal and dream by putting all the efforts and passion that I have for my career. I grew up in a Christian household and lived in South Korea for more than a decade. Then I moved to United States of America to study broad when it was time for me to go to High School. I transferred to Cal Poly Pomona University from Junior College after considering about my career options and preferences. At Junior College, I majored in Architect Designer, but due to the technical issue in administration, the system put me in the incorrect major, which turned out to be Landscape Architecture. This, however, created a turning point in my life, considering that I absolutely knew nothing about Landscape Architecture. Nevertheless, I began to realize and see the true beauty of Landscape Architecture throughout these years. Furthermore, I truly liked studio time which provided me meaningful experiences to meet good friends and cooperatively work on projects. Last but not least, it was great to learn landscape architecture in various viewpoints and perspectives by working on the miscellaneous assignments. Afterwards, I figured out that I am truly fond of this major and gave it all my passion. I will be genuinely excited to see myself joining a firm and enjoy my Landscape Architecture major for the rest of my life. Moreover, I foresee that I will be enduring all the challenges and will be open to all the new opportunities to achieve the best outcomes in my career.

SENSATION GROUND

Spring 2017 Fundamental Landscape Design LA 103L Basic Design Professor: Philip N. Pregill

Project Goals The goal of "Sensation Ground" is to design ground and the pool utilizing design principles such as line, composition, depth, direction, balance, repetition, and harmony based on the experience of the field trips. Before making physical model, creating study models with different grounds using foam core and chipboard was essential to final model as it helped to visualize the base of the model.

Site Plan

Shade Study

Then, creating different types of pool using same materials as the ground was essential learning experience for the pool that goes in to the final model because it helps to understand which pool fits in the ground rather than just adding it to the ground. When making final physical model, first step is to create a depth of the wood with the handsaw.

Use chisels to adjust the heights of different elevation of the ground, this step helps to find the destination of water where it access and leave. Second step is to find where to locate sleep or lay, shade or shelter, starts, and stories, fire or cook, sit and observe area, and then create field using trees. Final step is to use resin with dark blue and light blue colorants to express the water stream across the model.

Project Goals The main goals of "Herbal Destination" are creating a resting or stopping point of the Loop Pathway of the Huntington Botanical Gardens, and provide spatial difference from other gardens in order to inform the existence of the Herb Garden for visitor. Creating a more refined and connected pathway from the Desert Garden and Herb Garden, in turn, providing a more pleasant experience within the Huntington Botanical Gardens. Defining programs in Herb Garden was an important factor that may bring people inside of the garden. Also, using fine, medium, and coarse texture of herbs are placed on terraced planting beds that provide new experience to visitors.

Herbal Destination provides three programs, full educational experience about herbs and how different textures have been utilized throughout civilization, culinary classes learning how herbs have been used for cooking, and the rest stop throughout the new main pathway and enjoy the company of herbs.

THE PERSHING SQUARE

Spring 2018 The Pershing Square Competition LA 342 Prof+essor: Rachel Vassar

Project Goals

Succulent/Desert Garden

Huming Bird and Butterfly Garden

This project was based on the Pershing Square Renew Design Competition in Los Angeles. There were several firms participated on this competition such as "Agence Ter and Team", "James Corner Field Operations with Frederick Fisher and Partners", "SWA | Morphosis", and "WHY + Civitas". James Corner Field Operations with Frederick Fisher and Partners's design was selected for the project. The main goal of Pershing Square Renew Design Competition in Los Angeles is to make the Pershing Square open to public and inviting place, considered as "heart of LA" in the future. Based on the sun/shade study, tropical type of plants were planted on South side and desert type of plants were planted on North side.

BRIDGING HABITATS

Spring 2018 The Rio Hondo Grounds LA 342 Members: Hwamok Kim, Thomas A. Backman, Jihoon Kim, Jiayu Zheng, Minerva Grace Professor: Rennie Tang

Project Goals

Water circulates from the East hexagon to West-North hexagon, that creates different type of habitats.

Vegetations, such as shrubs and trees are placed by habitats of each hexagon.

Today's Rio Hondo Spreading Grounds have a purely functional, non-recreational purpose. The purpose of the project is to design the Rio Hondo Grounds as multifunctionable, sustainable, and dynamic environments. Inviting pedestrians from the street or neighbors who live near Rio Hondo Grounds to activate the space.

Three hexagons divide into three habitats. One for small insects, one for small mammals, and one for birds. Bridge connects three hexagons together, giving quick access and accessible vantage point for the surrounding area. Including programs such as active, resting, sensory, playful, and shelter, it creates attraction to people who are visiting spreading grounds for biking or walking.

The bridge connects three hexagons and provides shade throughout the site.

THE COMMON GROUNDS PARK

Fall 2018 LLARP CONCEPT DESIGN OPPORTUNITY ID #65 LA 3111L PROFESSOR: LEE-ANNE MILBURN

Project Goals The Maywood Riverfront Park is located in the city of Maywood, Los Angeles, California. The current site of conditions lack of shading areas, educational purpose, connection to Mawood Park, LA River, a bike trail, and recreation areas for visitors. The goal of this project is to develp of a 7-acre park along the LA River at Slauson Avenue, active open space with direct access to trail, and programs for residents adjacent to Maywood River Park. 

Bio-Retention Area Exercise LA 3111L Professor: Lee-Anne Milburn

This project includes three design concepts for three separate designs of the same site:

Duplex Park

Intimate Park

Framing Park

CHANGE

STRATEGIZE stages

transitional The word "Transitional", utilizing three stripes with different shape that point in one directio, was selected for a design concept that directs to one central point. The design is incorporated using symetrical patterns to influence experience.

accomplish The word "Strategize" was the next designing concept and its respective synonym was "Accomplish". Using the form of the accomplish draws people into the site and strategically provides different spaces in the park to support the overall design.

The word "Change" was another design concept along with the synonym "Stages". In one park, creating intimate spaces with different elevation was key to the design. High Point and Low Point in the site is main idea of the design.
