CityX & CityLab Intensive

CityX was my first step into Landscape Architecture led by the Dean of LA, a class focused on creating outdoor spaces for people to love and gravitate to. The above section, elevation, and plan are a design for an outdoor classroom, an open air pavillion for students to immersed in nature as they learn. The excess space on the plinth is meant as an activity space, allowing for animal demonstrations, group activities, or an open space for decorative plantings. I drew inspiration from my own experiences in outdoor classrooms, knowing that sitting in nature whilst learning about it makes it so much more impactful.

CityLab Intensive was a four day lab designed to plunge students into design and explore Boston through five lenses: human comfort, mobility & circulation, open space systems, built form & development patterns, and social & cultural systems. The above painting was my analysis of form and feelings when walking through a coastal tunnel.
