CHULA VISTA BAY FRONT yr Spring 2013 Design Studio co Team Work with Jason Chen & Ang Li (Landscape Architecture) in Astrid F. Reeves, Margarita M. Hill, Beverly J. Bass
IntrODuctIOn After city of Chula Vista shut down the power plant in 2010, there are parcels of land including heavy polluted area, sensitive wild animal habitat and a remaining power substation at the location. Our goal is to remedy the polluted site and protect existing wild animal habitat while creating a public park for recreational and leisure purposes. The park includes an outdoor shopping mall, farmers market and public gathering space in response to the fast growth of the city. Water transportation will also draw visitors from the great San Diego area. The park provides venues for the locals and visitors to enjoy leisure and cultural activities.

co An Vo (Landscape Architecture), Kyle Geyer (Engineering)
“Break it, stretch it, bend it, crush it, crack it, fold it.” -Bruce Mau IntrODuctIOn As landscape architecture students, we understand the significance of combining design and function to build a sense of place and cultivate play. Our senior project actively represents the culmination of our knowledge to design and implement within a collaborative platform. As future designers in the field, we hold the responsibility to optimize engagement within communities and create meaningful experiences that foster inspiration on a civic scale. Through taking our design from concept to built form, we will gain invaluable knowledge
of what it takes to bring visions to life. From a professional standpoint, we would like to bring awareness to creating design solutions that adapt to evolving cultural perspectives on communication. For the users, we would like them to experience space with a deeper appreciation for the receptive complexity of physical landscapes. Our project seeks to explore the many layers of the landscape architecture and bring new perspective to users about the significance and qualities of meaningful spaces. We approach the design from exploring the evolving perspective of the users.

Also we consult with industry professionals for the best choice of outdoors materials. The final topologic modular seats provide great comfort for the users while carrying thoughtful aesthetic details.

Our design is to provide spaces that meets the clients’ wants and needs. Our design has developed from a “Y” shape accommodating for three main aspects: manufacturing space, project space, and collaboration space. The apex of the building will house the “check in” area to provide a central location needed for safety and security reasons. The building will be located adjacent to the Tech Park, and will function as a small community in itself. Through a combination of redevelopment we hope to foster a shared dialog between the Innovative Fabrications Center and the existing Technologies park. This project can serve as a catalyst for further innovative approaches to Cal Poly’s future expansion. We also intend to attain at least a LEED® Gold rating, and inspire future projects to meet or exceed our own in terms of innovation in sustainability.

IntrODuctIOn As UC Merced develops its upcoming campus, it will emerge as a pioneer for zero net energy with this design inspiring all universities that follow. In a charrette of two weeks, we came out with a design solution that implements various methods of energy collection, storage and reuse including solar panels, green roofs, living systems, water cisterns and composting. Through these energy efficient techniques, the goal of becoming a zero net energy campus will surely be met. Methods such as processing yellow and black water into grey water, harvesting storm-water and solar energy for reuse and composting waste for landscape use all contribute to UC Merced’s step forward to zero net energy consumption. In addition, the interplay of sleek and modern architecture with the natural landscape echo the inspiration of forms and movement along paths. The organized choreography of vehicular, bicyclist and pedestrian movement encourage bicycling and walking with safer pathways and designated lanes. As each component activates and flows into the energy processes, they fuse into a balanced blend of sustainable design.

IntrODuctIOn This program is to transform Margarita Ave, San Luis Obispo into a livable street with low impact development (LID) storm water treatment features. Paying my respect to Gustav Klimt (July 14, 1862 - February 6, 1918), an Austrian symbolist painter, the design is taking his art works as inspirations. This project aims to benefit the surrounding communities by integrating the site with features of Woonerf (livable street in Netherlands). 0’ 5’ 10’

The street design involves features such as trails, seats, public gathering spaces, green walls and bioswales. As the main entrance for the community, L.O.V.R. provides the residents with public gathering and recreational spaces, as well as aethetical visual pleasure.

PIXEL BLOOM PAVILION yr Winter 2013 Design Studio
This project is brought on by the observations that the students undergoing senior project in landscape architecture have witnessed around their university campus as well as in any public realm. Their goal is to bring awareness to the beauty of everyday life; from natural environments as well as social ones. By creating more meaningful relationships between people and nature, social isolation can be lowered.

Our installation, Pixel Bloom, strives to inspire others by generating a well-connected community through the education of social awareness and exploration of meaningful relationships through alleviating human dependency of virtual platforms. The form derives from the idea that online communication and the Internet creates a vortex for users; pulling them into a space where they have the ability to control where their attention is set, and what they set it on.

“the world is a glorious bounty. there is more food than can be eaten if we would limit our number to those who can be cherished, there are more beautiful girls than can be dreamed of , more children than we can love, more laughter than can be endured, more wisdom than can be absorbed. canvas and pigments lie in wait, stone, wood and metal are ready for sculpture, random noise is latent for symphonies, sites are gravid for cities, institutions lie in the wings ready to solve our most intractable problems, parables of moving power remain unformulated and yet, the world is finally unknowable.” -Design with nature by Ian L McHarg
