MASTER PLANNING

Increases in population and urban sprawl will require more production. With increases in CO2 emissions, we must rethink urban infrastructure. This work will introduce a new form of agriculture production to where post industrial cities become productive machines. This will affect the landscape, architecture, and society in growing cities. Products in this contexts products can grow fresh, natural, organic, producing zero net energy overall. The accessibility to goods will then be equally distributed. The overall goal is to create an innovative sustainable future for communities and their environment. In addition, structure of economy, spaces and societies will change based on the new system of integrated and technologically evolved agriculture production. Depending on context, this will shape the space for new forms of sociality, to be more self-sufficient towards self sufficiency, resiliency and sustainability. Furthermore, the new morphologies that will follow, will create new urban connections between space and their inhabitants.

URBAN PLANNING

The project was on a study abroad trip to Barcelona. The site is a pre-industrial factory that has 3 massive chimneys and an abandoned building behind. The proposal dedicates the new beachfront to be half built and half greenspace. In addition, there's a boardwalk that connects the two.

COMMUNITY CENTER

The space is comprised of half private space: offices, and the other half is open to the community. The building is connected to a building adjacent from it that has been injected with a community space in a high volumed office building.
