Engagement in Greenbelt
Site: London, UK
Team Work: AALU (2021-2022)
Instructor: Eduardo Rico-Carranza
& Engagement
Abstract: order to protect the edges London's Metropolitan Green Belt from destruction, with an understanding existing UK policy SFI, our team actively explored and engaged different groups of people within the Greenbelt an attempt to mitigage acute social tensions in an ecologically transformative way.
About Green Belt: calculated the corridor connectivity of the Green and found it to be relatively weak, with a significant presence of debris. Additionally, our analysis Buckinghamshire(inside revealed that numerous schools and farms are located near the Green Belt.
Process: regional policies ecological in the Green found the (Sustainable Incentive) government for improving qualities like
Based on that, Buckinghamshire our pilot site SFI pilot farm here, meanwhile are many farms close fragmented Buckinghamshire, could be our groups. However, revealed that farmers were of the policy. is to create to increase participation, SFI to expand space management and gradually fragmented Green Belt.
For Farmer User Interface
After analyzing policies and connectivity Green Belt. We policy SFI (Sustainable Farming offers government bonuses improving ecological like soil quality. that, we chose Buckinghamshire as site cuz the farm located meanwhile there schools and close to the fragmented green belt in Buckinghamshire, which our engagement field research that many were unaware policy. Our goal create a platform increase farmer participation, using expand open management gradually restore fragmented land in the Belt. Farmer Interface (UI)
Field research revealed many farms thrive by engaging visitors, with schools nearby. Therefore we hope that the farm can work with the school, which organises trips for students, or just family visits to increase the farm's income. Our game aims to attract children to visit farms, all the farm elements in the game are based
Game For Children
Children can learn some real and basic knowledgement when playing the game.
When children arrive at the farm, they can use tools like Apple Watch to explore and interact with different areas. This enhances their experience while increasing farmer income and motivation for environmental management. For Children In the form of a brochure showing the experience children will have when they arrive at the farm
Visits in real farms for Children
Activity 01: Livestock Feeding
Activity 02: Soil Research
Activity
For Farmer Farmers can upload information about the open space around their farms for better management.
For Casual Visitors
Visitors can also upload their own discoveries when they are not on a farmer-led tour.

Individual Work: May- Oct. 2022
Abstract:
Although Canada Ontario has the one of the highest freshwater in the world, indigenous people living in remote areas like Kenora suffer from a chronic lack of access to store water. I have tried to use Kenora as a base to store water while mitigating seasonal flooding through three different strategies.

"Not Fancy" Park
Site: Staten Island, NY
Individual Work:
UPenn LARP 6010 (Aug. -Dec. 2024)
Instructor: Catherine Seavitt
Abstract:
The North Shore of Staten Island, often seen as its “backyard,” struggles with pollution, disaster risks, and social vulnerabilities due to marine traffic and low-income conditions. To truly benefit the local community, I propose an approach inspired by the “BACKYARD” concept— focusing on practical, inclusive improvements rather than superficial beautification. Guided by “Not Fancy,” this initiative prioritizes genuine community needs, ensuring sustainable development without inviting gentrification.
SI Local\Global Maritime Shipping
Staten Island, a key East Coast shipping hub, hosts the Sandy Hook Pilot Station and several tugboat companies.
Exsiting Conditions: Staten Island
Problems & Potentials
After a brief analysis and overlay of the data, I focused on the North Shore of Staten Island and summarized many of the issues that need attention. Staten Island is not a fancy place to live, and at the same time a lot of people are not very happy living here. But behind the negativity, there is a lot of potential buried. For example, there are a number of local organizations in the vicinity of the venue that help to solve various problems.
Exsiting Conditions: North Shore
Three major intrusion were identified North Shore. photos reveal these areas spaces for water Additionally, bare spaces invaded blocks, parking lots auto industrial were noted.

Design Scope
The design scope is positioned on a narrow stretch of waterway and the block behind it.
Parking lots within these blocks could align with the idea of a backyard.

O4/ Shad"ed" Park
Site: Delaware Riverside, Philadelphia
Individual Work:
UPenn LARP 5020 (Jan. -May. 2024)
Instructor: Karen M'Closkey
Abstract:
The site is located along the Delaware river and, an area with a severe heat island effect. Additionally, the river serves as a critical migration route for American Shad. This design aims to mitigate the heat island effect and support the survival of the shad by introducing more shaded areas both for people and fish, and enhancing habitats through strategies such as topographic modifications and the creation of diverse landscapes.
Exsiting Sections
The section perspectives indicates the site as rundown and cluttered, making direct access to the water difficult.
