The purpose of our project is to redefine an area of the camp that everyone forgot once existed. We want to give this site of the camp a good purpose by showing that it is different from any other part of the camp. We plan to add a

Woodcraft Rangers Outpost’s purpose is to revive the rundown camp and bring programming to the site, expanding it to make it functional, resourceful, and inclusive. The section focused on within the master plan was the cabins/camp area.

The Whiteman Airpor t Master Plan project was a design proposal created by Tinkercraft for the Pacoima Beautiful organization. The project is ongoing but its purpose is to redevelop the Whiteman Airport by including community input and ideas. The plan proposes re-using hangars and structures for market, education,

2 and social gathering spaces. The idea was to bring sustainability to the site and provide more landscapes. The programs consisted of a hospital, market space, rain garden, educational facilties, and a forest buffer. The idea of the buffer was to extend the LAFD so helicopter pads can be moved further from the residents on Osborne St. while also creating a buffer of trees to prevent noise pollution. Overall, the plan proposes a basis for the city to incorporate ideas of sustainability and design together. 8

Long Beach Civic Center is a project which introduced concept designs to the site. The final product introduced multiple programs and flexible space to the site. The focus of the design was to reuse the empty space between the four exisiting buildings and park.

ECOLOGY
Our design was inspired by the idea of recycling shipping containers from the port to use as structures throughout our site. We connected two vacant lots from the site and made it into a communal gathering space. This design morphed Avalon Blvd. into a one way street to slow the flow of traffic and promote pedestrian movement. The design also had a space for vendors to set up and sell, which was a very important value of the city.
Placemaking Avalon Blvd. Is my semester long project in Wilmington, CA. My group was required to select two blocks on Avalon Blvd. and propose a placemaking design. A spatial analysis was required to further understand the site. Maps, diagrams, and sections were drawn to show the existing site conditions. There is a land use/ movement map to show circulation and building morphology. The sections display measurements of roads, sidewalks, and building heights.

BACKYARD PLAN
The Backyard Plan was a project which introduced drawings plans, elevations, sections, perspectives, and axon drawings. These drawings varied in style from illustrator to photoshop and rendering applications. An outdoor space which included various amenities such as benches, planters, a trellis, etc An introduction to 3D modeling and rendering. Rhino 7 was used to create the 3D model of the site. After completion of the 3D model in rhino, it was transferred into twinmotion where textures and softscapes were applied to the surfaces. Multiple perspectives of the site were generated to reflect a fully rendered and complete space.
