OVERVIEW The aim of the project is to establish an inclusive and multi-generational community corridor in Boone, Iowa, emphasizing ecological awareness and preserving the town’s historical identity. The focus on the endangered monarch butterfly informs the Monarch Corridor concept, which creatively mirrors the butterfly’s flight pattern and migration. Divided into Story St., Marshal St., and Tama Street, the site symbolizes the butterfly’s journey between flowers, offering diverse experiences in each zone. This living narrative invites individuals to participate in a symbolic dance between designated spots, fostering a connection with nature and honoring the monarch butterfly.

The design features colored pavement throughout the entire site, creating purposeful segmentation and a dynamic sequence that actively engages people as they move between different zones. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the Monarch Corridor serves a dual purpose: raising awareness not only about the monarch butterfly but also about all pollinators. Additionally, the design serves an educational role by enlightening people about sustainable stormwater management, emphasizing the vital role each person plays in preserving nature and maintaining a delicate ecological balance. The corridor becomes not only a symbolic tribute to pollinators but also a holistic platform for community understanding and active involvement in environmental conservation.

SITE & CONTEXT ANALYSIS The site, encompassing structures from 1890 to 2017, reveals a varied history, notably marked by neglect and a tragic incident in 2015 leading to the condemnation of an apartment building. Ownership changes over time, with the Boone Railroad Historical Society and lowa Railroad Historical Society currently managing the land, while specific structures, such as the 1910 building at 1003 Marshall Street, reflect a history of diverse uses and ownership, illustrating the site's ongoing evolution.

The south side of the Scenic Valley trolley track flows through and wraps around the Monarch Muse Art Gallery and PollenPetal cafe, with outdoor seating areas and an art exhibition plaza. The art gallery building is surrounded by rain gardens to collect stormwater and treat runoff. The north side of the track comprises of a garden center, splash pad, and local business stall area.

Both sides are connected to the major Monarch Corridor along the track and the whole area is enriched with patches of pollinator gardens. Colorful pavements and garden areas with art exhibits encourage visitors to immerse into a joyful and meaningful experience. The rain gardens work as a educational experience for the visitors while meeting the sustainability goals of the site.

“Imagine the native landscape of Mid-America, here in the upper Midwest, with its woodlands, natural meadows, flowing water, rock cliffs, sunshine and dappled shade, ever-changing as seasons pass, as clouds part, as the sun sets and the moon rises.”

OVERVIEW The purpose of this project was to create a three-season garden at the threshold of campus to allow students, faculty and staff to meet, play and enjoy the outdoors. Unlike many other campus spaces, this garden will facilitate being outdoors for extended periods of time, providing sheltered places to gather, places to sit, and flexible use spaces for play. The garden is also designed to support native insect and pollinator habitat.

SITE GRADING OF A DUPLEX CENTER

Fall 2022

OVERVIEW The project was part of the required course of Landscape Topographics.

In this project, a site plan with pre development existing contour lines were given. Based on the post developments (buildings, courts, paths, driveway, parking lot etc.), and a set of requirements it was required to regrade the site.

ATRB

In the process, spot elevations & slopes were calculated at different locations of driveways, pathways and building entrances. It was required to regrade the site in such a way that the water drains away from the buildings. Designing necessary swales to guide water to a drainage point was also required.

Tree driplines have been used to save as many trees as possible while grading the site. After regrading a calculation of the cut and fill was submitted.

OVERVIEW As a part of my Graduate Research Assistantship, worked as the lead intern for the city of Slater which have taken part in the Iowa’s Living Roadways Community Visioning Program 2023. The Community Visioning Program provides small Iowa communities with the planning and design resources needed to make meaningful transportation improvements to the local landscape. I have been working for the visioning program for the last two seasons.

Previously, I worked as a lead intern of the city of Logan in 2022.

These Bioregional context maps are made to provide the community members comprehensive information about their town. Maps are made in three major scales: Regional, City Context, and Town scale. The original maps are imported from ArcGIS as vectors to work in illustrator so that they can be graphically more communicative.

Status of College Creek Around ISU Campus

OVERVIEW The project focuses on raising awareness about College Creek, and the benefits of restoring, protecting, and celebrating Iowa waterways. We have a small creek that runs through our campus but very few people are even aware that it exists .

Because College Creek has been rerouted into pipes and remains hidden to many.

How might we call attention to this creek? How might we celebrate the waterway? What person-environment relationship might we enhance with our designs? How might we design to educate people about the benefits of protecting and restoring our creek on campus?

These questions were pursued as part of the ‘Daylighting College Creek’ design proposal.

Visible Hidden & Invisible More natural with high visibility and presence Natural, but reduced Visibility and presence Manmade and Controlled through pipes & culverts

ATRB

WHAT IS DAYLIGHTING ?

In highly urbanized areas, where small, headwater streams are often buried, hidden, and forgotten, protecting headwater streams is not possible. Stream daylighting is a relatively new approach that brings these buried waterways back to life by physically uncovering and restoring them.

BACKGROUND In functional terms, apartment solutions from external consultants satisfy at best the quantitave needs of spaces for different tiers of teachers in a university, but remain non-responsive to the variable and assymetric needs of different tiers of teachers and their families of different universities set within different socio-geographic-political context.

Most design schemes that the consultants provide closely resemble generic urban apartment solutions. In social terms, most of their ‘one size fits all’ schemes hence fail to demonstrate any conceptual and spatial component that would contribute to the making of a ‘community’ and satisfying other Quality of Life requirements.

In theoratical terms, most design solutions fail to respond to the local and wider geo-cultural variables as a whole.

In consideration of these problems, it has been realized that a crisis of Identity is what characterizes all these schemes, and any designerly response to these problems must begin with the recognition of the necessary components of architectural identity for in this case a HSTU campus site.

In search of identical character from the university campus surroundings, it is found that the street pattern of the city has a vibrant flavor which is connected with the ground level of the buildings and used for commercial purposes.

The upper levels have residential uses. This sequence has been like this since the British colonial period of the city .

The outdoor activity and spatial sequence has been observed through a physical and analytical survey at different scales and then used to challenge the typical ‘One size fits all’ layout of existing residehntial campus buildings.

Space Science Museum & Exploration Center: An Approach Towards ‘Edutainment’ at Krishnanagar, Khulna, Bangladesh

BACKGROUND Bangladesh has only one planetarium complex in the capital. The Govt. has recently taken the initiative to establish such complexes in each divisional town.

This thesis was intended to serve that purpose with the proper identification of issues and the possible visualization of how the solution should be.

The major identified issues from the existing establishment was the lack of choices and interactivity in the overall built environment. The spatial layout offers no storytelling opportunity creating monolithic exhibition spaces.

The main research question was ‘how to develop a competent archetype scheme which will enhance the opportunities for space science learning and exploration.’ Primary research objectives include searching for the indicators of an explorative environment and determining different aspects of ’edutainment’ in built environment.

This project involves rigorous study and research about the transformation of museum and planetarium archetypes, its influence on built form and exhibit spaces in contemporary practice.

BACKGROUND Architecture might be related with the structure through variety of methods where structure plays a role to shape the form as well as ensuring the aesthetic view of the particular project. In earlier times, the structure provided only the stability of the building but did not produce spectacular architectural spaces because of structural limitations. After the industrial revolution, a movement was familiarized in the field of architecture known as MODERNISM which introduced the high-tech architecture, deconstructivism and so on. Besides, the role of structure have been reformed with the advancement of technology and redefined so as to create spaces and give spatial identity.

PROJECT OBJECTI VE Hatir Jheel Lake

Located in a core tourist attraction of the dense capital of Bangladesh, the objective of the project was to explore building structure as an identical architectural entity following the contemporary works of prominent architects where they have used special structural system.

Hatir Jheel Lake

In this project, the works and design philosophy of Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer have been studied to generate an eye-catching pavilion where city people can gather to enjoy the location’s beauty as well as the gallery exhibitions.

MAJOR TAKEAWAYS - Symmetricity in form - Elevated from gound level - A long path towards entry - Use of glass and concrete as materials

OSCAR NIEMEYER

CONCEPTUAL THINKING The pavilion is thought to be a gigantic shade for city people to gather and relax

THE PARASOL

- A parasol is a light umbrella used to give shade from the sun.

- It has been thought as a relaxation hub for the people to get relief from everyday city noise.

- The form allows ample views of the scenic beauty of the lake and works as a concrete shell in the design.

FORM DEVELOPMENT

Samples of NIEMEYER’s signature works studied during the project

A pure circle has been taken into consideration and then segmentized according to different axis to ensure 360 degree VISIBILITY and ACCESSIBILITY of the surrounding lake.
