Germany: Three Concepts This was the thrid out of four projects we did while abroad in Germany. We were tasked with choosing a site from around Bonn, Germany and redesigning the site with three concepts in mind. My chosen site, Stiftsplatz, is a half park, half parking lot serving the surrounding shops, eateries. and institutions. I used lenses of recreation, heat, and stormwater to cater the site to different uses and needs. Across my designs I emphasized vertical design, implementing hills, raised bridged, and depressions. This culminated in varied levels of play, efficient stormwater mitigation, and effective heat use and reduction.

Perspectives (below and same order as plans on right): Here is shown a clear view of the relationships in height between bridge walkers, hill vistors, and pumptrack users. The use of topography creates a truly multimodal experience. Section of Dryness/Heat Concept (on right): The section cuts through the design’s center, showcasing the bed of flat rocks and the splashpad that surrounds it. Water keeps the area cool, and black rocks warm pedestrians up.


Stormwater Plan: The ‘Storm Skater’ design uses three hills, a pumptrack, and a raised pavillion over a large stormwater basin to manage stormwater in a way that is interactive for pedestrians.

Heat/Dryness Plan: The ‘Rock Rest’ design takes the most simplistic approach, bringing meadow grass, trees, and more native plants to cool down the site. Rocks for sunbathing act as the centerpiece.

Recreation Plan: The ‘Urban Climb’ plan adds hills and large trees to the site, equipped with raised bridges for unique play opportunities. Paths cut across the site to maintain pedestrian routes.


Center Stage Courtyard This site is on my college campus in State College, PA. It is nestled adjacent to the Palmer Museum of Art and Visual Arts Building, and the design prompt urged us to create a space which would reflect the happenings within the two buildings. In response, I crafted a very open space with light tree cover, allowing easy pedestrian access to the buildings and a large space for public congregations with the addition of a stage.

Concept Diagramming: Multiple iterations of the site were diagrammed in order to find effectively accomodate for pedestrian traffic.

Final Plan View: I used circular geometry to create a welcoming space despite the intimidating brick architecture surrounding the site. Areas were designed to allow seating outside an indoor cafe and spaces to display the arts through theater and sculpture.


PHOTOS OF PHYSICAL MODEL AND MAYBE SECTIONS

Physical Model: This model was constructed to better visualize the site through foam, cotton, cardboard, and soil.

Revit / Unity Engine Model: This was made as the final project of my VR course in order to take the visualization of the site a step further to the point where I could virtually walk through my design.


Sidney Freidman Park This project was located at a local State College park and required us to look into the demographics of the community and various existing site conditions for the first time in our education. I focused on prioritizing pedestrian through-routes and youth engagement. The challenge of this site was the steep topography present at the site and how we would react in order to create accessible paths and programmed areas.

Section Cuts (Not to Scale): The first section cuts through the center of the park, vertically, showing the path widths in relation to the vegetation and topography. The second section also highlights the topography, showing how the terraced seating area overlooks the playground near the park’s entrance.

Final Hand-Drafted/Photoshop Plan (Not to Scale): This plan was one of my first in PSU’s program. I handdrafted the plan with pencil and used photoshop to place the handdrawn trees repeatedly. I kept the site mostly flat at the programmed spaces using the little knowledge of grading practices I had. I focused on pedestrians routes and making space for nearby youth and families.

Planting Methods Coursework This coursework covers what I learned on planting schedules, planting plans, and construction documents for planting plans. Extensive research was done into plant ecology to determine appropriate species for our semester’s site: the Milennium Science Center on Penn State University’s main campus. The objective of the coursework was designing a diverse meadow, two tree plazas, and two pollinator gardens. (PM)

Meadow Final Planting Plan: Made with CAD, this plan organizes various types of forbs and grasses in an aesthetic and ecological fashion.

Pollinator Garden Massing Model: This was a preliminary step, made in SketchUp, visualizing the volumes of plants we had chosen where larger cylinders are trees and all smaller volumes are various lower plants.

Hand-Drawn Massing Layout: This view of the pollinator garden was used as a prelimary determinant of plant spacing and arrangement.

Final Pollinator Garden Planting Plan: This is the polished plan indicating all the selected plant species and their placements.
