Introduction| Nathan Burgess DESIGN TOOLS | PROCESS My work in graduate school has been characterized by conceptual and technological experimentation within a suite of emerging and traditional design tools. The resulting projects are situated at the boundary between the scientific and the intuitive—bearing the mark of my undergraduate training in environmental science and literary criticism. A common theme within much of this work is the production of landscape by interventions within human and geophysical processes. I have organized the first section of the portfolio in order to highlight my experimentation with the tools of design and the second section to describe how these tools find their way into the process of researching and designing landscapes.

Independence Community Park becomes a home away from home for the citizens of Melville. For several days the park provides space for parking and plenty of amenities. Here and in parks like it outside of the basin, Melvillians can create annual rituals and traditions, and continue to enjoy their rights to Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness! Move your game piece to Independence Park.

These diagrams explore the relationship between the Venice lagoon—possibly the oldest “constructed wetland”—and a new wetland constructed on Port of Marghera fill. I used drawing extensively in this project, inspired by the newly discovered work of Raumlabor and the considerable challenge of obtaining GIS data from Italian government servers.

This diagram synthesizes research into the geophysical and social rules of the life-or-death game of ring-levee town property ownership at the base of the Morganza floodway. The representation also features (and evokes the design process of) diagrams generated parametrically with Grasshopper (roulette boards).

This diagrammatic model solved the challenge of representing the distinction between non-physical geopolitical space (acrylic) and topographic space (chipboard). The geopolitical plane illustrates two approaches to living in the delta: narrower French parcels aggregate along naturally high ground while the Jeffersonian grid extends through the lowlands.

This gameboard is a map, a plan, and a model of life in a Mississippi River Floodway. It maps the cycle of flood evacuation and return for residents of ring-levee towns like Melville, LA. It also proposes a distributed support network that encourages residents to transition to jobs and lives on higher ground.

This project curated the morphological change of a large lump of nourishment sand placed off the coast of Virginia Beach, Virginia. This simple sand table helped to visualize how a lunar calendar of data-collecting buoys might serve as a datum and palimpsest for a periodic nourishment ritual. My thesis research uses a simple morphological model, the Coastal Evolution Model for a similar purpose.

HYBRID MODEL | PLAZA DESIGN ALTERNATIVES Externship: Michael Vergason Landscape Architects, January 2012 collaboratively designed with Michael Vergason Michael Vergason asked me to construct a model his proposed plaza in Forth Worth, Texas. Working with Vergason, I created a model with several interchangeable topographic inserts and site features. This model’s groundplane is illustrated with Vergason’s handdrawn site plans and building facades are illustrated with elevations of buildings from a consulting architect.

The model inserts above were designed so that buildlings and site features, such as trees and pergolas, could be inserted into the model, allowing for live demonstration of various plaza configurations.

RESEARCH AND ORGANIZATION | DATA FOR MULTIPLE CLIENTS This research was conducted in preparation for the University of Virginia’s 2012-2013 Cultural Landscape Report. The Office of the Landscape architect asked me and another Cultural Landscape Report Fellow to construct a series of digital models to show changes to the University of Virginia’s topography over time. We created topographic models for the years 1896, 1909, 1945, and 2012.

These models synthesized data from existing historical contour maps, sections, spot elevations, and aerial photographs. In addition to purely documenting the site, the process of designing these models allowed us to fill in some of the historical narrative. For example, we were able to describe the topography within the Rotunda Annex’s rampart walls—filling in a blank in the historical record. We carefully organized our research process and products so that they would be used by multiple clients: the Office of the Architect, Facilities Management, and the Cultural Landscape Report consulting firm.

We chose ArcGIS and ArcScene as a platform for developing this model because of the power of its toolset and because it was used by each of our clients.

For the 1896 model, spot elevations obtained from pre-construction survey points in architectural elevations and sections were combined with elevations from a partial contour map from that year.

Spot elevations were interpolated in ArcGIS to help recreate the topography of ground that is today occupied by academic buildings and other landscape features.

MESIC URBAN LAWN

The goal of this project was to design a nursery and display garden on a parcel of land adjacent to Rt. 29 in Charlottesville, VA—the site of an Arby’s restaurant and an abandoned gas station. The idea for a carnivorous plant nursery came as a response to the As site the site of a former gas station and a current fast-food The currentcollages riparian corridor exhibits weedy,deinvasive and existing use by human “carnivores.”

MESIC WOODLAND

The woodland on the site encompasses a west-facing slope with a dense ground and shrub layer and areas of somewhat full canopy.

Canopy and the understory here are patchy at best, but well-formed dogwood and tulip poplar specimens stand out. Birds, insects, and roads and residences.

As the project entered design development, modeling site topography and boardwalk details helped to clarify the relationship between undulating bog topography and a network of viewing platforms and stock display tables. The final design included converting the existing Arbyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s into a terrarium sales area with a connecting greenhouse for tropical carnivorous plants. A secretive carnivorous plant research bunker was embedded into the adjacent hillside and accessible by an elevated walkway over an existing one-lane road.

This project was developed as part of a studio that asked students to relocate and redesign an existing farmer’s market in Charlottesville, VA, and embed this within a larger urban strategy for an urban district and a green infrastructure plan. My project explored the importance of information exchange in markets.

It also explored a market-based stormwater management approach for a local subwatershed. My initial research explored farmer’s market precedents such as Green City Market in Chicago (below), as well as the existing City Market in Charlottesville (stops along a sound-transect through the market, right).
