Mapping, Landscape Design & Public Space Design
Mapping Samples - Corridors of Opportunity- Charlotte, NC
Using ArcMap Pro to develop environmental and demographic maps for geospatial analysis in support of Corridors of Opportunity programming along the Sugar Creek Road and Albemarle Road Corridors. The program works to invest public improvement and mitigate gaps in service in historically underserved corridors around the city.
Allegra Westbrooks Regional Library Public Space - Charlotte, NC
Design was developed as part of the City of Charlotte’s Corridors of Opportunity Program. We conducted 6 months of charettes and an additional 6 months of site design, approvals coordination and project planning. Our design leveraged the community’s recollection of an atmosphere along the corridor in prior decades akin to a “front porch”. To achieve this we emphasized gathering space, planting improvements and opportunities for play and education.
Deveron Drive - Private Residential Design - Charlotte, NC
Client requested a set of site designs they could use to direct future general contractor and landscape installations on the property. Following a consultation I documented the site and developed drawings they are now using to complete stated goals, allowing them to downsize in retirement and eventually sell the property to a young family. My focus was on generating a simple yet detailed set of drawings to allow ease of reference for client and the various contractors employed throughout implementation.
Double Oaks Public Space Charlotte, NC
A collaborative charette spearheaded by the Charlotte Urban Design Center and partnering City and County departments. The workshop resulted in proposed land use amendments for future grant cycles. The proposal was submitted to City Council for consideration. Special attention was dedicated to proper landform and aquatic relationships, urban agriculture, education opportunities and encouraging play in public space.
