About the Designer From a young age, Marie as always enjoyed being outside and learning to appreciate not only the way things work, but how they can serve a greater purpose. Beginning college, Marie intended to study architecture but soon discovered her hidden passion for landscape architecture and landscape design. Through her designs, she focuses on the beauty of the landscape but also the functional aspect of it, believing that nature serves multiple purposes beyond aesthetics. She enjoys linking designs to relevant historical aspects, surrounding designs, user demographics, and creating elements that will thrive long after the design process is complete. Although Marie’s methods may be untraditional, she enjoys finding new ways to complete projects with the mantra “work smarter, not harder” while remembering there is no need to “reinvent the wheel”. She prides herself on her ability to see the bigger picture, in her designs and in life as well; seeking not only formal secondary education, but expanding upon them through studies abroad in Spain and Germany. These opportunities have provided her the chance to see the world and work on designs in various cultures with alternative expectations. Although these studies abroad experiences have allowed Marie to graduate college a semester early, she looks forward to continued learning through experience in the field. One of Marie’s biggest passions is traveling and she believes this has also impacted her designs. Beyond her studies abroad, Marie refers to herself as a world wanderer, having traveled across the country and around the world. These travels have provided her with first hand views of various methods to approaching landscape architecture and design. These opportunities are not forgotten as she regularly tries to blend different design techniques to create unique and innovative designs. Outside of the design aspect, Marie tends to find herself appreciating nature from various perspectives and always noticing something new, with the understanding that nature and landscape is an ever changing design in and of itself. She believes that walking in the park or watching the sunset are some of the greatest and simplest pleasures of life. However, if neither of those is an option, she is also quite content watching a good movie with her dog at her feet. iii

Community Development
North Atherton St., State College, Pennsylvania - Spring 2015
Landscape Design, Civil Engineering Individual Project Patton Twp and Ferguson Twp
“Unique, private community which stretches into its surroundings�
Community
Multifunctional
Stormwater Management
Framework:
An overgrown wooded lot currently housing 30 residential trailers functions as a barrier between residential neighborhoods and big box developments on N. Atherton Street.
Intention:
Develop a neighborhood with equal R1 and R3 housing, while incorporating community amenities: green space, commercial realty, and on-site stormwater maintenance.
Solution:
Utilize existing tree locations and site surroundings to place housing, while establishing community based elements on the interior of the site.
Conclusion: Separating housing along the edges while focusing the community aspect on the interior brings residents together while still appealing to outside visitors. 1

La Escocesa, Barcelona, Spain - Summer 2015
“Site reclamation through production and community involvement�
Community
Economy
Sustainability
Framework:
Located within an up-and-coming neighborhood, La Escocesa is an abandoned factory site with contaminated soil, currently used for graffiti projects and art studios.
Intention:
Create an updated, community-oriented location that can be used by locals and visitors alike while preserving the history of the site and its surroundings.
Solution:
Link the housing developments through a large path and park system, culminating at a locally supported community garden which can sustain a public market place.
Conclusion: Establish a sense of responsibility through the garden allows locals to get involved by reaping the benefits of the produce, while establishing stronger community bonds. 7

The factory site, currently in disarray, would be upgraded to a community garden with adjacent cafe to bring in visitors from throughout the city while providing employment opportunities for the locals. The factory within the entry site works as a focal point of which the paths are based off. This allows for private residential areas and parks within easy access to employment and community elements. Other elements would be updated or maintained based on current use, including the northern commercial area and western industrial space. The housing including is based on the original proposed residential capacity. Small adjustments were made to decrease the building footprints and increase public green space while maintaining the predicted number of housing units.

Along train line connection from Bonn, Germany to Cologne, Germany - Fall 2016
Landscape Design, Urban Design RenĂŠ Schulze, Kristal Mendez City of Bonn
“Dual purpose miniature destinations from city to suburbs�
Multifunctional
Sustainability
Place-Making
Framework:
Under-utilized areas located along a train line, connecting Cologne to Bonn, which are frequently used by passersby during morning and evening rush hour.
Intention:
Implement elements that establish the locations as destinations by creating a sense of place and providing multiple uses throughout time of day, day of week, and seasons.
Solution:
Develop destination based on lacking elements in the immediate area and further tailor the design to be used by both commuters and those seeking a small urban oasis.
Conclusion: Allow for open-ended designs to be altered by those frequenting the location, and instill a sense of responsibility to those now using the sites for relaxation and individual gain. 13

Site Surrounding and Overview them beautiful, individual, and enthralling. Pocket places are fluid sustainable designs that are unique and purposeful, fitting the need of a specific area. Pocket spaces can transform underutilized islands of space into useful public settings that provide seating, greenery, business opportunity, and more on a personal and intimate level. Throughout our 3.94 km project site we noticed gaps and vacancies with potential to be redesigned for the benefit of the daily users of the site and people of the surrounding comm nity. Drawing inspiration from the art workshop, we want to expand on the idea that no place is too small to have meaning or purpose. Our vision is to repurpose small spaces along the paths of the rail line where there are islands of underutilized space. It is easy to imagine our site simply as a corridor to get from point “A” to point “B” or to view the small places littered throughout as unincorporated or leftover. However, we hope to encourage urban d signs that are inviting and create a more pleasant space for people to use. Simple installations like a small children’s playground, unique benches, or a pop-up coffee shop can add a sense of place and breathe life back into a bleak and uninteresting landscape. By filling in these gaps we hope to rejuvenate and reactivate the space by encouraging people to use these forgotten spaces in new and exciting ways. The word “pocket”, in regards to urban design, can be interpreted in a number of different ways. In an effort to pilot our search for pocket spaces a compilation of criteria was formed. Spaces that have a potential for improvement, a character different from its surroundings, and could offer a personal and intimate experience are areas of key interest. When looking for pocket places the current use of the space and accessibility by a variety of different transit options will also be taken into consideration. In designing, we do not want to limit ourselves to specific dimensions and aim to fill a need of the surrounding area by creating a “pocket” version of the standard use. However, designs do not need to be complicated and can be a simple as cleaning up an area to make it more inviting and usable. We hope these guidelines and designs can serve as examples of how cities can use pocket spaces as an effective urban intervention tool.

When you first think of public open space you might think of a large plaza, a vast park, or a bustling streetscape. While that is true, we want to challenge you to also imagine public open space as personal pockets or niches filling in the gaps of the fragmented urban landscape. No two pocket places are the same which makes them beautiful, individual, and enthralling. Pocket places are fluid sustainable designs that are unique and purposeful, fitting the need of a specific area. Pocket spaces can transform underutilized islands of space into useful public settings that provide seating, greenery, business opportunity, and more on a personal and intimate level. Throughout our 3.94 km project site we noticed gaps and vacancies with potential to be redesigned for the benefit of the daily users of the site and people of the surrounding comm nity.

Place-Making
Framework:
A deserted alley lot situated between a visitors’ parking lot and downtown McKees Rocks, surrounded by a theater, locally owned businesses, and an active nightlife.
Intention:
Provide an area that serves as a secure passage between downtown and the parking lot, while making the location a desirable destinations for those visiting McKees Rocks.
Solution:
Incorporate a seating plan and small projection film to grab the attention of those passing by, while also allowing various pathways from one side of the alley to the other.
Conclusion: Including small environmental elements within the site provides inspiration for stormwater management and planting design in small residential areas within the city. 19

Positive Ecological Impact
I-279 Corridor, Northside, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania - Fall 2015
Civil Engineer Jeffrey Holzer Penn State Pittsburgh Extension
“Connecting greenery from one side to the other on a budget�
Multifuntional
Economy
Sustainability
Framework:
Many existing structures crossing the 10 lanes of I-279 are built solely for pedestrian and vehicular access, with green infrastructure and incorporation as an after thought.
Intention:
Create a structure using existing elements and designed to serve the community, including the local environments, with as little cost to the municipality as possible
Solution:
Build an eco-bridge, designed for small critters, to cross the interstate safely and secure it to an existing pedestrian bridge to minimize construction cost.
Conclusion: Increasing passage between greenery minimizes cost of clean-up along roads from unsuccessful animals, and encourages hands-on human interaction natural elements. 23

The Bridge
Forbs
This eco-bridge is designed to minimize cost and construction by direct attachment to an existing pedestrian bridge. With interior support, the troughs can be easily secured and, when needed, replaced. Excess water drains through the soil into a catch basin which flows into the neighboring bioswale. Netting deters animals from jumping over the edge and projects the site from birds which could disrupt the bridge. Grasses and forbs are planted to provide natural protection, with small paths included for a direct link from either side. Height changes allow human interaction without causing a threatening feeling to the animals.

“Skill sets and talents through various projects and mediums�
Hand-Crafted
Planning
Grading
Framework:
Fulfill assignments, in tandem with other classwork, to the best of personal ability while trying innovative methods to broaden capabilities as a student and designer.
Intention:
Work in groups and independently to create designs that fit requirements of the project within personal abilities, while expanding range of skills and talents.
Solution:
Use various methods to complete tasks, including practicing, researching, and discussing designs with professors, peers, and other non-designers.
Conclusion: Further develop existing skills while discovering hidden talents and previously unknown interests, while completing assignments and producing new and unique results. 27
1000 Trees, 1000 Shrubs
Incorporate multiple different typologies into the site, as well as pathways for pedestrians. Include potential parking area and preserve existing wooded areas. Originally drafted by hand, exactly 1000 trees and 1000 shrubs (3 sizes each), scanned and completed in AutoCAD 28
Hedgerow Over Time
Based on Dan Kiley’s work, research and create rough planting plans for hedgerow typology over time, including at planting, 20 years out, and 50 years out.
