COMPLEMENT Enhancing solutions through the allowed combination of different designs and skills.

MULTI - PERSPESPECTIVE An exploratory freedom and vision allowing one to perceive and gain a holistic solution.

LANDFORMS SPRING 2006 Critic / Patrick Mayers Exploring a three dimensional formal relationship given a two dimensional layout by developing a composition of three dimensional cubes having dimensions of 8’ by 8’ by 8’ on a 88’ by 120’ tract of land in Northern Arizona. Through a process of subtraction, the cubes were formed into a product that would support varying degrees of light, views, and human occupation.

CONCEPT

Study Models

The cubes are composed to support a varying degree of private and public spaces on the interior and exterior of the site. The exterior cubes are intended for reflection and meditation. They are open to the sky, highlighting views to the surrounding landscape. The interior cubes face the interior of the site and are intended for large congregations. They feature covered and uncovered areas, allowing varying degrees of light and views.

BLENDING BLOCK SPRING 2009 Critic / Kimberly Steele The population of adults with developmental disabilities have limited housing choices. The objective was to design a living facility that catered to the needs of this population but also foster independence, stimulation, creativity, social skills, job skills and interaction. The project goal was to create an independent living facility that would connect the developmentally disabled residents to the surrounding community. The buildings and surrounding green space were intergrated into an urban area offering natural relief to the topography.

Encouraging meaningful interaction with the community to help develop a sense of place in society. Increasing confidence and self-esteem essential for new independence. The living facility provides three levels of care, allowing the facility to serve adults with varying levels of independence. The design encourages interaction between its residents and the public through the 5th Street Gallery and McKinley Park. The opportunity for creativity allows tension release and self-expression. McKinley Park serves as an integral piece of green space in Downtown Phoenix. It features a playground, plaza spaces, riparian/wetland habitat, art display walls, great lawn and a city look-out. The connection to nature brings awareness to natural cycles, tuning the residents into their surroundings and their physical place in the world. The location of the facility allows those that are independent enough to search out jobs and voluntary positions, further encouraging interaction with the public, resulting in a more accepting society.

SAN PEDRO FALL 2010 Critic / Edward (Ted) Cook The San Pedro River is the last un-dammed river in the southwest. The river valley is the last neo-tropical flyway in west. It hosts 2/3 of the avian diversity in the United States, 20 different biotic communities, 3 of which are considered endangered. The diversity in native plant species is maintained by natural processes and conditions. The San Pedro riparian ecosystem is critical in maintaining regional biodiversity. The riparian habitat provides crucial feeding and stoppage grounds for animals and migrating birds. Biodiversity of the riparian system is reliant on water and stream flow. A decrease in water supply has led to a decline in the riparian habitat. Manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s actions have been instrumental in shaping and decreasing the quality of the riparian habitat through development, agriculture, and pumping of the aquifer. As hydrologic regimes change so does the animal and plant life of the riparian system. Today many sections of the river are in a state of desertification, leaving fragmented habitats.

CONCEPT

CHOROGRAPHY

Through research, mapping, site visits, and meeting with experts in the region an understanding of the current situation in the San Pedro Valley was formed. Focusing on a single site with severely impaired habitat a number of strategies were researched and explored to increase the quality and health of the site. Strategies applied include; restoring and maintaining ecological and evolutionary processes, unregimented landscape retention, protecting natural communities, sustaining native plants and wildlife, sever and transfer water rights sought to maintain habitat values, and restoring flow. The rehabilitation techniques utilized were In-Channel Deflectors, Bank Re-Profiling, Back Water Creation, Buffer Strips, and Re-Vegetation using native species to the region.

TRANSITIONAL LANDSCAPES FALL 2009 Critic / Gabrielle Montemayor The Arizona State University campus in Tempe, Arizona is a hard campus to define. The amoeba like form of the campus makes the perimeter hard to define, leaving the campus with no sense of place or image. With such an edge entrances into campus are undefined, making them hard to comprehend, leaving connections the context poor. Campus has numerous spaces that are void, unoccupied, yet free, spaces of possibilities and expectation. After overlaying circulation patterns, edge conditions and terrain vague; a site with great possibility was found. It contained a translucent edge, highly unoccupied, voided of almost all activity and lacked strong connections. The potential to establish new connections between city and campus was emphasized, using the urban form and establishing an edge to fill the void with texture and density. Creating a transitional landscape requires thought regarding which parts of the landscape should change and which, if any, of it should be permanent.

CONCEPT This site has been created with a diagonal pathway which will be a permanent part of the three sites. This was done in order to ground the site, yet allow experiences among the sites to change as necessary throughout time. As the city and school advance the surrounding areas must also be able to embrace advancements. Creating sites with minimal permanent infrastructure was our way of accepting and celebrating this fact.

PROCESS DIAGRAMS Overlay Potential

Instead of a comprehensive development plan, individual sites could provide a flexible strategy accepting of change, restoring texture and density to the voids in a manner that will be sufficiently flexible to be incorporated into future development.

MARYVALE: healthy living and eating for children SPRING 2010 Critic / Kimberly Steele Maryvale, located in Phoenix, Arizona, is the first post war master planned community in Phoenix. John F. Long designed and developed Maryvale starting in 1954. Long envisioned a community of affordable homes with schools, libraries, churches, recreation areas and business opportunities. Today Maryvale is seen as a much different community than it was once designed. The area is separated, lacking many resources and services that the residents of this community desperately need. Revitalizing Maryvale requires a supportive system that connects a fabric of resources, commercial and circulation to help support one another. The goal of this vision focuses on fixing current problems and providing a foundation for healthy living and eating for children. The opportunity to research, analyze and experience Maryvale created a strong foundation to determine the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of the three key area of study â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Rehoboth Area, Golden Gate Community Center and the Amigo Center. Through a series of charrettes and walking audits an understanding of the overall Maryvale project came alive. Talking with local residents and children enabled stronger communication and understanding of the major concerns of the area. Through these interactions it became obvious that simply solving the problem of healthy living and eating for children required a plan to revitalize the overall Maryvale area.

LARGE SCALE DIAGRAMS Potential Commercial Corridors

CONCEPT The major problems of Maryvale include: vacant homes, drugs and violence, cars speeding and racing on streets, lack of sidewalks and necessary infrastructure, unsafe routes to school, strip clubs and liquor stores, vandalism and graffiti. It is apparent that the problems are much larger than providing a platform for healthy living and eating for children. A comprehensive solution that diminishes and dissolves the underlying problems will lead to a cleaner, safer community for all. Revitalizing Maryvale through a connected fabric will create and improve local economy, revitalize commercial redevelopment, improve connectivity between residential, resources and commercial centers and allow for the potential for healthy living and eating for children.
