Project i One Word Two Elements

O ne W ord T wo E lements _S truggle This is the first project of my second studio. The assignment was “one word and two elements”, which mine is struggle and trees and soil. This concept of word was kept on and extended through out our whole second studio. In the center of the model, a cracked pattern is created with soil to express the word ‘struggle’, as well as setting up a background for the trees. The idea of struggled trees comes from juniper bosai that has twisted branches. So the trees in my design have lots of forms. Some of them are twisted together, some are down at the bottom and drilling out of the cracked soil, some are standing along but struggling for the sunlight to get rid of the shade created by the meandering landform.

DEMONSTRATING ONE POTENTIAL RESULT OF INCREASING RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL DENSITY, WHILE ALSO INCREASING CONNECTIVITY, EQUITY OF DESIGN ACROSS A VARIETY OF INCOME LEVELS AND ACCESS TO THE ABUNDANT NATURAL AMENITIES OF THE SITE, THIS CONCEPTUAL MASTER PLAN REPRESENTS FULL BUILD OUT OF A PHASED 50 YEAR PLAN.

M aryville-A lcoa M aster Plan Representatives from City of Maryville and City of Alcoa are losing their historical identities because of urban sprawl. Extensive amount of concrete pavings create serious drainage issues. Our concept was to increase density on the main roads by bring retails, commercials, and mixed use closer to the road and move parking area to the back. Narrow down the lanes to calm the traffic and widen green belts bike lanes and sidewalks to encourage more sustainable and green modes of transportation.

M aryville-A lcoa M aster Plan _ D etailed D esign This project is part of the Maryville-Alcoa master plan, which is located between two critical intersections on Hall Road: Landsay St. and Gill St. The design concept is to increase density and walk ability on the main road to create not only convenient communities and a centralized cityscape, but also a sense of place for Maryville and Alcoa their own.

Private vs. Public Green Space Diagram

Hall road is heavily used street for both residences around and visitors to the Great Smoky Mountains. Thus increasing density and bringing retails to this main road, as well as applying red brick to pedestrians and critical intersections, will attract residences and visitors to stop by. As is shown in Vehicle vs. Walkability Diagram, there are four critical intersections that are connected by three main streets in this design. Hall Road, in the center, is the widest complete street within this area; Landsay St. and Gill St., perpendicular with Hall Road, are paved with red bricks. Gill St. leads all the way to an “Urban Style Riverfront Plaza”. These four intersections connect the entrance of Hall Road and Urban Plaza, as well as the existing Maryville-Alcoa Green Way. In this way, instead of being a drivethru street, Hall Road becomes a destination – a place where people could enjoy wandering and experiencing the historical city of Alcoa.

Project iii The Nocturnal Fantastic

The N octurnal Fantastic This project is for MAXminimum design competition. MAXminimum is and annual competition established in honor of the School of Architectureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s former director, Max Robinson. It means to created great impact on the design environment in least possible means, and promote conceptual and pragmatic design excellence. It is a team work involving both architecture and landscape architecture students and the time span is 72 hours. Though the design process, we should experience the meaning and characters of space. In this project, a new entrance for Art and Architecture building should be addressed, as well as the function of the space around

L andscape Plan Phase II First Final Version Jane Bertelkamp Memorial Garden

By Sara Pinnell and Xue Yue October 15, 2013

Lonsdale is a Guatemalan neighborhood in Knoxville, Tennessee and used to be misunderstood as an unsafe area. This project is aimed to create a place not only to the memory of Jane, but also to thrive the Lonsdale area. During this design process, I experienced initial meetings with clients and founders for project kick-off, corporations with neighborhood, geotechnicians, and architectures. We produced many options not only to create a beautiful garden, but also to solve parking and grading issues. Most of the works so far were done by hand because Hedstrom Design is a hand drawing preferred office and our clients love to see that.

Project Phase One Seven Islands Wildlife Refuge Observatory Entry Gajczak+Montgomery+Yue_McCown+Wall_Spring 2012

This project is located at Seven Island Wildlife Refuge in Knox County, East Tennessee. The design aims to create an interpretive entry building and site for the Seven Island Wildlife Refuge. This design incorporated the sun and wind by loading the building on the northwest side of the site, and water management by harvesting rainwater for use inside the building in both functional and aesthetic ways. The building and other structure attached operate as a ‘gateway’ to the site by leading people from the entry of the interpretive center, through the building, to the landscape field.

This project is to build an observatory entry for Seven Island Wildlife Refuge in Knox County, East Tennessee. It is a cooperative work with the architecture studio including the transfer architecture students from Poland. We have three team members, 2 architecture students and me in landscape architecture. Encompassing 360 acres, the Seven Islands Wildlife Refuge(SIWR) is a wildlife sanctuary with recreational use by the general public. SIWR is adjacent to French Broad River. Convenient water access and woodlands provide a large habitat for various of wildlife species. Our design aims to create an interpretive center building and site to lead people to discover, understand and enjoy the beauty of SIWR.

The design allows cross ventilation through nearly the entire building through the use of a light wooden screen around the entire structure. This same screen also acts to filter the sunlight into the building rather than allowing direct rays from the sun. 1

The building and other structures attached operate as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;gatewayâ&#x20AC;? to the site by leading people from the entry of the interpretive center, through the building, to the landscape field. Sun and shade study is necessary especially for this project because our building design aims to encourage visitors connect to the environment by enjoying the light filtering through wood structures I create a montage with site photos and the model we built together to help us experience the feeling of space on site.

To achieve this there is collection from the roof that drops down through an opening and drips down a stone wall into a trough-like cistern.

In another way, it can be used for water wall and create an education place including bird models and rain garden, which aim to teach visitors how the water is collected and what native creatures are here.

Translating C ultural L andscape: Blending to the surrounding landscape

A C hinese G arden In E ast Tennessee CULTURAL LANDSCAPES are cultural properties and represent the “combined works of nature and of man”.

台前香引流水出白玉莲花九叶开

In front of the stage, water is lured out by the aroma of lotus; It is in full bloom and looks like a pure white jade.

great heat

Cultural landscapes need to be protected, developed and spread. Traditional landscapes that have limitations in fitting into modern trend of efficiency and economy, their essences should be extracted, rethought, re-interpreted in order to benefit not only the “culture owners“, but also people carrying different purposes from various backgrounds. This project is to design a Chinese garden that could adapt and benefit people in Knoxville at the International House (I-House) Parking lot in the University of Tennessee. There are 5 main “moments” in this design which are East Tennessee interpretations of typical scenes in Chinese classical gardens: the Water Fall, the Tea Stage, the Winding Path To Mystery, the Calligraphy Stones, the Moon View Stage, the Sunk Amphitheater with Bonsai Wall. Each of these moments is depicted by a famous verse from old poems to set an example of how to interpret classical characteristics to an adapted version. Specific plants in are metaphors of different human merits, which is commonly applied in Chinese culture. As a translation, native plants are selected to match the tones and characters of Chinese native plants.
