The site is the predominately vacant, 64 acre, Cascade Mall site in Burlington, Washington. Currently, SPF (Skagitonians to Preserve Farmland), and the local grassroots group “Right Growth, Right Place (RGRP)” are focused on prohibiting a proposed type of housing development in Skagit County called a “Fully Contained Community” or FCC. The proposed FCC will destroy the rural
landscape and permanently harm the region’s ecological, economic, and aesthetic vitality; literally and figuratively paving the way for sprawl. Our design studio worked with both groups to produce 20 individual projects that creatively support the region and simultaneously address affordable housing needs.

Exploration of an experiential, aesthetic, and social perspective of how, through design interventions, places can be made and restored through the use of plants and other natural resources. Geographically chosen sections utilizes problems that have a wide
range of complexity and subject matter, such as watershed analysis, species habitat development, recreation, and natural areas in rural, community, and urban contexts.
The original colonizers form biofilms and put down roots that stabilize the upper layer of soil and break down rocks.
As biodiversity, or the number of species in the area, increases, resource competition increases.
The first organisms to colonize the landscape are diminished or eliminated through resource competition, and larger plant species become dominant.
Graphics were created through being a research assistant for the Grass and Water Ecology Lab. The main purpose of the research is to provide homeowners with key information such as the water quality capabilities, stormwater infiltration capacities, requirement issues related to turfgrass grass design, quantifying how much
oxygen, cooling, and general well-being opportunities differ across different landscapes. Eight typologies (lawn, lawn garden, garden, mulch, xeriscaping, no maintenance, artificial turf, and clover) were created and research was compiled to eventuallyl be inserted into a website and research article.
Maintenance
Around 33% less particulate matter than hardscapes
Significant
Increase in nutrient uptake and reduction of runoff
Deeper root systems infiltrate more

Dr. Kelly Ward, a celebrated and respected member of the Washington State University community, passed away suddenly in 2018 and she is commemorated in the creation of the Kelly Ward Memorial Pathway. The documents following are a personal conceptual design of the pathway as it is still in construction. The
path to the hilltop is in place, and a memorial boulder is set at the site of a plaza at the top of the trail. Dr. Michael Sanchez’s students proposed the idea of a central boulder and a design of concentric circles to represent Kelly’s influence rippling outward, and the path in place echoes that idea.

In this senior CAPSTONE project, a website was created to help homeowners of Malden and Pine City as well as the greater Palouse area better prepare for and prevent wildfires. The website, Palouse Firewise Future, is designed to provide homeowners with the necessary information and tools to make their landscape more fireresistant
as well as providing them design inspiration based on their land type. With the intention to keep everything short and simple, the website takes on a very minimalist design so as to not overwhelm the user. Primary focus was on readibility and user-friendly design in order for the information to translate well to the community.
