Redwood Park

Redwood Park is a conceptual design for the creation of a public park to be built in the place of an empty lot on the San Francisco Bay shoreline. This image includes examples of wooden benches and structures that could be installed at the park.

Ecology
Transformed from an empty lot, overgrown with invasive weeds to a beautiful meadow. One of the most important aspects of this project is the restoration of the ecosystem. Over 50 native trees and hundreds of native and climate adaptive plants are part of the planting scheme.

Human Health
The park provides a wide range of social spaces. A unique feature of a circular floating dock serves as a quiet contemplative space. The park also promotes health and exercise with a winding walking trail. The park is a perfect place for people of all ages to gather and relax while enjoying the beautiful sites of the San Francisco Bay.

Genetech Business Park

Genetech Business Park is a reimagined green space for employees to use and enjoy. The pathways create an easy way to travel between buildings while the large seating areas provide a retreat from the walls of the office or cubicle. This image also shows the current state of lawn with very limited seating and sparse vegetation

Ecology
This design takes a mostly unused grass lawn and transforms it into a large natural park with abundant seating and lush vegetation. Sixteen native trees and hundreds of native and drought-tolerant plants are part of the planting scheme. Nine palm trees are also part of the plan to make the space feel like a relaxing vacation.

Human Health
This park in the center of a business complex acts as a space to de-stress and escape the cubicle for a minute. Now that the park has much more seating, employees can enjoy the outside while still being able to work. A large water feature at one end of the park with a palm tree studded island acts as another space to take a breather. The park encourages walking and stimulates the mind with a long trail that covers the entire length of the site. This also makes it easy to walk from one building to another. It is a perfect place to take a working lunch or host a fun outdoor meeting.

Sterling Street Park

Sterling Street Park is a proposal for the creation of a public park to be built in the place of an empty lot in the north end of Hartford, CT.

Ecology:
Transformed from an empty lot, overgrown with invasive weeds to a beautiful park. One of the most important aspects of this project is the restoration of the ecosystem. Thirty native trees and dozens of native and climate adaptive plants are part of the planting scheme.

Human Health:
The park provides a wide range of social spaces. A basketball court and a skatepark allow kids and adults to stay active and healthy while having fun. The park also promotes health with a brand new vegetable garden with seven raised planter beds. There is a stage for outdoor concerts and a restroom facilities as well as a storage unit. The park is a perfect place for people of all ages to gather and play.

Magnolia Skatepark

This image is a proposal for a 4,000sqft skatepark to be built in the place of an empty lot in the heart of San Francisco’s Bayview neighborhood. There are very few skateparks near San Francisco when compared to the rest of California so adding a skatepark in this part of the city would be great for the kids. A skatepark will bring families from all over the city to Bayview. This will boost the local economy by providing more customers for the shops near the skatepark. It will also give the kids in the neighborhood a place to express themselves in a healthy and creative way.

Nine Magnolia grandiflora trees are to be planted around the park. This evergreen tree provides shade all year without dropping leaves or berries onto the cement.

This Image also shows a satellite view of the current site as well as a sketch of what the it could look like.
