Tu r n ( i n ) t o G r e e n This project was an urban design exploration aimed at solving the complex issues that currently challenge many urban environments worldwide. In 2012, Fiat partnered with its hometown of Torino, Italy to hold a design and ideas competition focused on redeveloping a large suburban industrial space. They wanted to transform this industrial landscape into the prototypical urban community of the future. The main idea of my design was to assist the community in making this transformation using their existing urban forms and land use habits to create a more human centric urban landscape.

The Agri-Urban Community|Schematic Plans and Sections The Agri-Urban community is an urban model designed to combine dense urban living with a high-functioning agricultural system. By utilizing open space around the site we can create a multitude of diverse agricultural areas. The design introduces growing and harvesting cycles to assist the community in supplying itself with localized natural resources year round.

A’

The site’s design is centered around a dense, walkable core of tree lined streets, open parks and agricultural land that are seamlessly coupled with commercial and residential spaces aimed at bolstering the local economy. The design of the Agri-Urban community is applied to a complex industrial site in the southwestern, suburban context of Torino. The Fiat Mirafiori factory is comprised of large swaths of impervious land and includes a trench, 25 to 30 foot deep, where trains curently enter and exit the site. If redesigned properly, this site could be the linchpin connecting green space and agricultural land along the western edge of Torino.

Pruitt Igoe Now The urban forest that reclaimed the infamous Pruitt Igoe site is the foundation for the design. By taming a bit of the site’s wildness, the redesign serves as the connective tissue for the area. A community-oriented node is created in West St. Louis.

The node serves as a commercial and residential hub. The site is to be framed by a drainage canal and the nature bands that extend out into the surrounding community. These extended bands will be developed in phases, with the intention of connecting to more of St. Louis’ green space. The expansion of the nature bands in the community will help promote development and growth.

The focal points of the site are the drainage canals. These waterways will function as the drainage system for the parks and buildings. The system utilizes complex grading on a nearly flat site to send the water throughout the site. The building infrastructure insulates the nature bands and the nature bands act as buffers between the automotive atmosphere and the water canals. In its newly coordinated form, the site will act as an urban focal point and can remain a green lung for the city of St. Louis.

P e r m a c u l t u r e Fa r m My Role (2015): I worked as the project manager, collaborating on the design of the master plan with a team of landscape architects and designers. My research on permaculture in the Caribbean was introduced into our implementation plans for the site. I produced a series of fully edited aerial videos for the clients.

TTLAs Role(2015): We were hired to complete master plan designs and implementation plans for a 22 acre plot of land outside of La Vega, Dominican Republic. The client was interested in implementing permacuture systems into the planting. Their intent was to heal the land while harvesting the yields to be sold and/or donated to the surrounding community. They also expressed a desire for us to locate additional buildings for farm activities, community-centered activities, eco-tourism, and their own personal residence.

G o o d r u m H o u se a n d G a rd e n s My Role (2012): I assisted in archeological digs in multiple locations on the job site. Helped in photographic analysis of the landscape, worked on the permit set and helped develop a series of implementation plans.

2013-2015: Worked in coordination with the project manager and the landscape architect on the historic preservation process. We analyzed the various layers of soil strata in multiple areas on site. We did extensive research into the project at the Atlanta History Center researching the original architect, Philip Shutze’s original drawings, notes, and correspondence. This intensive process guided us throughout the restoration of landscape.

TTLAs Role (2011-Present): TTLA was hired to restore The Goodrum House’s landscape back to the 1930’s period of significance. We created permit plans, construction documents, and management plans. We helped perform construction administration over the landscape. Our objective was to create the most historically accurate, aesthetically beautiful and environmentally friendly landscape per the client’s request.

We also provided the client implementation and maintenance plans.

Rhodes Hall

My Role (2014 -2016): Worked to assist the project manager in coordination with a landscape architect in the creation of a historic analysis of the landscape and with the production of schematic and design development drawings. Worked with our team to redesign the pedestrian and automotive experience around the site.

Our Role(2014 -2016): We were chosen by the Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation to redesign the landscape of their headquarters, Rhodes Hall. The design was to be informed by site’s histories and the proposed programming of the client. Our design aimed to create a more seamless pedestrian and automotive experience. We redesigned a series of corridors to better host events and introduced a series of native plantings along the edges of the site. We produced a site analysis package, 4 schematic design iterations, a combined schematic design with sections, a model with 5 perspectives, and the permit/ construction document set.

Estate 1 My Role: 2016-2017: I worked with a landscape architect as the project manager to assist the client in designing and constructing the landscape to surround their new home.

TTLAs Role: 2017-2017: We worked for over a year to produce schematic designs, construction documents, planting plans, grading plans and models. We were hired as the second landscape architects and had to adapt an existing design to better accommodate the objectives of the client.

Project Background: We inherited a scar on the earth from the prior landscape architect. When we first visited the site, it was obvious where the previous home had been leveled and the vegetative layer had been torn away. The construction site was a blank slate on a 33% slope in a 1960s single family neighborhood. Our approach was to inundate the landscape with native plantings that will prosper and quickly envelope the walls retaining the landscape . We selectively removed invasives while keeping plants like Elderberry (a plant that feeds 100 native birds). The client had a desire to mask the retaining walls that flatten the land to hold the footprint of the home. We designed a water feature and outdoor fireplace that help integrate the walls, the landscape and the new house

Estate 2 My Role: Worked as a project manager in coordination with a Landscape Architect to create a master plan for the site.

TTLAs Role: We developed a master plan and land management plan for client’s 4 acre in town estate in Atlanta, Georgia.

The project included analysis of the existing conditions of the site and a historic analysis of the land. We implemented environmentally friendly invasive plant removal tactics by utilizing sheep's never ending appetites. The majority of the design work was associated with the creation of a trail network, butterfly gardens, an area for kids club house, and several creek crossings.

Project Background: The client was the 2nd family to live in the current house on the property. The landscape surrounding the home is a dense old growth forest. The site is filled with surprises containing several remnants of civilization past like the moss covered stone walls and old mechanical pumps. The house is located in the Lake Claire neighborhood of Atlanta and upon overlaying the 2015 plat with the 1928 U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey of the City of Atlanta we found that the site encapsulates what was once Lake Claire.

Spoons and Carvings When I was 16, I learned the Appalachian technique of wood spoon carving. In 2014 after a friend helped to reinvigorate my carving passion I decided to take my hobby and turn it into a small business. I started NoahsSpoons by launching an online store and sold my work at a few pop-up shops around Atlanta.

My process involves finding harvested trees throughout the city and using hand tools to manipulate the logs into functional kitchen and home wares. I have taught some informal lessons to friends and neighbors but mostly I love spreading my knowledge of the craft.
