SAMPLING SUBURBIA Østbirk, Copenhagen, Denmark

ACADEMIC PROJECT | ONGOING | GROUP PROJECT /w MARTIN H. ANDERSEN

As one of the most representative site of urbanization of the 21st Century, the suburban landscape calls for reconsideration of the role and presence of suburbia as important urban peripheries. This project aims to propose urban design and landscape interventions for Østbirk, Copenhagen. Inspired by the architectonic qualities of the existing urban & landscape grid, the proposed concept aims to interweave the urban fabric by extending and shifting the exiting grids. The new grid organizes, clarifies and celebrates the existing values of suburbia though its regularity, continuity and constant presence.

ACADEMIC PROJECT | JUNIOR | INDIVIDUAL WORK

Nature animalcule

Promenade Smith is a post-industrial district to the West of downtown Montreal. The design concept stems from a simple origami game - “the chatterbox”. Inspired by the poetic, angular forms of paper folding, this project aims to integrate technology with landscape design. The proposed design features landscape based stormwater management strategies, wetlands and urban forestry (urban habitat for birds). The vision hopes to inspire and encourage awareness and appreciation of sustainable urban drainage systems and wildlife conservation through technology and green infrastructure.

ACADEMIC PROJECT | JUNIOR | INDIVIDUAL WORK

“Skybridge” is a raised, 40 feet pedestrian highway. The walkway provides an elevated “second” skin to the city, finding a place for nature in an urban space. The Skybridge reconnects the city with the Hudson River waterfront. It also creates a landscape continuum from the Highline to the river edge.

CONTAIN YOURSELF

N.Y.D.O.T Waterfront revitalization ITHACA, NY ACADEMIC PROJECT | SOPHOMORE | INDIVIDUAL WORK NYSDOT site sits at the mouth of Cayuga Lake, North West to downtown Ithaca. The site is undergoing tremendous changes that are reshaping its future. D.O.T. has made plans to relocate itself, offering exciting opportunities for revitalization. This project aims to propose architectural and landscape interventions that capitalizes on the existing energy and create new opportunities for synergy and growth. The proposed design aims to realize the site’s potential as a vibrant, mixed-used community through container architecture, waterfront trail, and semi - private squares and courtyards. By integrating these spaces into a landscape that restores and cleans the soil (through phytoaccumulation), the scheme hopes to bring the site back into producitivity, creating a varied landscape that combines living, working and play.

PARK STRAWBERRYFIELDS PARK, ITHACA, NY

ACADEMIC PROJECT | SOPHOMORE | INDIVIDUAL WORK

3D VISUALIZATION OF GRADED LANDFORM

Strawberryfields Park is a public park located in the heart of a suburban residential neighbourhood in East Ithaca. Tucked behind an elementary school and residential units, the park is a hidden gem, unnoticed by the general public. This project attempts to celebrate the existing qualities of the park by incorporating ecology with education. The design features a graded landform that redirects groundwater runoff into a constructed wetland. The proposed scheme features a nature trail, learning orchard and boardwalks, where students could learn about river processes and the water cycle.

KMDG is a small but visionary firm that has won several notable commissions and awards in both American and international settings. During my one week externship at KMDG, I created visualizations and presentation graphics; helped with LEED calculations and prepared competition packages. I was given the opportunity to work on various landscape architecture projects, namely The Steel Yard and Roemer Plaza at Suffolk University.

BRIDGING CHELSEA

SASAKI ASSOCIATES CITY OF CHELSEA, CHELSEA, MA INTERNSHIP | SUMMER 2012 | GROUP PROJECT: INTERN CHARRETTE The Tobin Bridge, a major highway corridor, connects Charlestown to Chelsea, MA. Ironically, the bridge bisects the city in half. The proposed framework for Chelsea aims to eliminate the psychological and physical barrier of the Tobin Bridge by addressing key safety issues of the bridge and its surrounding areas. The proposed vision aims to interweave Chelsea’s bisected, varied landscape though a robust yet flexible framework known as “The Infinite Eight”. “The Infinite Eight” acts as a recreational and transportation link which connects the community to amenities, nodes and landmarks. It operates at various scales, providing a safe, efficient, green corridor for people and wildlife; enabling a landscape continuum throughout Chelsea. The Infinite Eight provides the necessary framework for Chelsea to metamorphose into an integrated, connected, cohesive community that offers a variety of opportunities for rich urban life.

Smale Riverfront Park is a 32-acre park along the banks of Ohio River. The riverfront park not only frames downtown Cincinnati, but also completes a necklace of open spaces along the river, linking statewide recreation trail and bike systems together. The park provides a setting for programmed events, gatherings, and active and passive recreation. During my internship with Sasaki Associates, I was given the opportunity to participate in the design development of the park. I primarily worked on an adventure playground and east grove garden, creating various study models, diagrams and graphics for the project.
