ABOUT ME

I never knew what a landscape architect was. Coming out of highschool i wanted to go into animation. As a kid I’ve always enjoyed drawing, scribbles on a page meant something to me because only I could understand it.

I am tenacious, especially when I am very passionate about something. I am Filipino and if you know anything about Filipino families it is almost expected that your child goes into the medical field. Clearly, I did not go that route. I chose my own path and luckily, I have parents that support me.

My brother introduced me to architecture. I took many classes trying to figure out what I wanted to be. back then I assumed Landscape Architects were just glorified gardeners, and I was incredibly wrong. There is a certain passion, rigor and discipline that is required to pursue this path.

This is a culmination of my work; it is by no means finished. It is a representation of how much I have grown. I expect it to grow and evolve as I become more experienced and educated in this field.

THE HUB

The Hub is the result of an internal competition within our studio. It is a redesign of Neutra Plaza located in Cal Poly Pomona just outside of The College of Environmental Design. A Team project that re-envisioned what the Plaza meant to us.

I was on a team with Frances, and Emily.

Together we wanted to create a space that focused on food, water, and community connection. We wanted the space to not only reflect the college of ENV, but also bring other colleges to this space. A community space where members of all colleges felt welcomed.

Our first move was to relocate the existing ENV cafĂŠ, we decided to locate it within the plaza because food is our biggest attractor to the space. The cafĂŠ would be created from a standard sized shipping container. To compliment the space, we added various seating areas, with lawn chairs, movable tables, bar stools, and plenty of shading from trees and shade structures. The area with a physical shade structure would also double as a presentation area. In terms of water we wanted to address two areas that always flooded.

We wanted to work with the existing grade change on site and added trench drains to appropriate areas and permeable pavers to help mitigate our issues with water.

In terms of who did who, I personally worked on the section located below, circulation diagram, hydrology diagram, material diagram, and the hardscape diagram.

INK BLO NEW BL TO A CE GARDEN

Connecting Threads is a project that worked with Heart of Los Angeles, or HOLA for short. HOLA provides underserved youth with free, exceptional programs in academics, arts and athletics within a nurturing environment, empowering them to develop their potential, pursue their education and strengthen their communities.

For this design they wanted a landscape to company their new arts and recreation building.

For inspirtation we began with a list of words and ink blots. We made six in total then we would combine two to create one blot. With this one bot we created a new design which we would cut into sections, make into plans and physically model. This would make the base of my final design.

From these models i overlayed shades and patterns that i noticed and placed it the site plan. I focused heavily on topo and quickly became indulged with the undulation of line. Where the ribbon like path comes from.

AFTER CREATING THE PLAZA, GARDEN AND STREET, I HAD TO PHYSCIALLY CREATE ONE OF THOSE AREAS. I USED PLASTER FROM LIST A, AND CLAY FROM LIST B TO CREATE THE GARDEN MODEL.

I took the Ribbon shape and made it my big move across the site. Because it is an Arts and Recreational building i wanted to provide outside areas that can serve as an outdoor classroom, and just a general seating area. I thought heavily about circulation because of where the site was located. Most people in this area did not drive here, rather they walked or took public transit. I choose the ribbon because it provided an area where JOSHUA AGUSTINES - PROFESSOR SENES SENESpeople could slow down from the bustle of 0 5 20 10 / FALL 2018 Joshua Agustines LosLA2111L Angeles.
