FOLD THE PLACE
REVIVAL URBAN VACANT LAND IN DOWN TOWN BATON ROUGE
Individual Project Year:2016 Duration: 8 weeks. Site located in down town Baton Rouge where plenty of vacant lands been left there waiting for new developments. These abandoned lands not only waste the urban resources cause environmental issues, for example, erosion. But also increase the crime around these places generate social security issues. Therefore, this project is looking for a solution to solve the environment as well as social issues, provide a pleasant outdoor recreation place in down town Baton Rouge.

TIE A NODE
USE THE NEUTRAL GROUND AS A LINKAGE TO UNIFY THE NATURAL AND CULTURAL RESOURCES
Individual Project Year:2017 Duration: 10 weeks City of New Orleans is a place with abundant natural and historical resources, However, they are in the dispersed situation. Combine with Laffite Green Way and St. Charles Ave, our site has the opportunity to tie the City Park and Audubon Park together to be a continuous natural system from the midtown to the up-town in City of New Orleans. This green system will also go through the major historical neighbourhoods in New Orleans to unify the historical resources in NOLA as well.

Individual Project Year:2017 Duration: 12 weeks Mexico City facing multiple serious water issues, one of them is the decreasing clean water resource. However, by analysis the climatic condition and geographical condition, Chapultepec Park Section III has the opportunity to collect the rainfall in the rain season and serve as a nature water resource contribute to water supply in Mexico City. The project tries to develop a mechanism by using the natural regulation of plant to manage the rainfall as well as the forest ecological system.
