Interlock: space/environment/systems

My role : team leader, assistant project manager, and student organizer. Conducted studies with four elderly couples to research and test design concepts and applicability to an actively retired target market. Societal Scale Goal: Re-densify urban neighbor-hoods with a “granny flat” concept, encouragingthe development of small, energy producing dwellings in the big back yards of our urban landscapes. This approach allows multiple gen-erations to live on the same land, bringing fami-lies together and connecting them to the existing transportation and social infrastructures that already exist.

Dwelling Scale Goal: Develop a house that can take advantage of all seasons with flexible interior spaces that enable easy indoor/outdoor living. Emphasize the importance of ADA acces-sibility and Universal design principles. Furniture and interior details reflect the Iowan culture with furniture made by students and local woods, ce-ramics made with imprinting prairie grasses, and local community colleges crafting the Universal design kitchen elements.

Rome CompassA compass based on the Nolli map captures the ideas of wayfinding in the dense urban fabric and the wild overgrown pockets of Rome. Etched and soldered, the compass depicts personally familiar sections of the Nolli map that exist on the edge of rural and urban. (1.25” diameter, brass)

Wind Rose Ring

Dynamics of Social Spaces

Transformed in one November day.An alley, usually used as a short cut, became a gathering and play space for all ages. The alley’s characterwas brought into full light with theinstallation of thousands of hand-picked ginkgo leaves.

For one day, the alley glowed withthe softness of the bright yellow, andpaper-thin waxy leaves. Adults and children alike couldn’t resist the urge to toss leaves at each other.

PARK(ing) for People

Charlotte had never had a PARK(ing) Day. Pairing this one-day-per-year event with a popular Food Truck Friday was the key to encouraging strangers to chat, to think differently of how parking spaces can be used, and notice how important small things like shade, surface cover, and a buffer from the street can really shape a different place.

All materials were borrowed, nothing was thrown away. Plants were sourced from strangers answering a Twitter ad!
