3:00 pm−4:30 pm Outside | In : Integrating exterior and interior landscape through biophilic design principles for a healthier work/live environment (1.5 CEC, DBPR Pending)

Ben Noyes, PLA, Founder, Habitat LCLauren Fasic, Managing Partner, Delineator DesignDefinition of biophilia : a hypothetical human tendency to interact or be closely associated with other forms of life in nature (Merriam-Webster Online).

The Human Relationship With Nature: Evidence suggests that humans are innately attracted to the natural world. The various shapes, colors, and patterns of nature are used throughout design and are appreciated universally. Humans over time have diverged with nature through technological advances, and the more technologically advance we become we continue to grow further apart. This separation of construction and technology has led to very sterile spaces, from workplaces to homes, however humans crave nature and thus the opportunity for designers to provide this element for health, sustainability, and well-being.

Kona Gray, FASLA, PLADiane Jones Allen, D. Eng., ASLA, PLAKofi Boone, ASLA“Palatable Mush.” This was the phrase that Diane Jones Allen used to describe the overused yet misunderstood concept of diversity. Instead, this panel will challenge us all to move beyond the “check box” approach to diversity and reckon with the systems and processes that prevent equitable environments and professional practices. Panelists will address how communities can be empowered through authentic engagement to integrate their cultural needs and perspectives into design and planning.

3:00 pm− 4:30 pm Keynote: Walter Hood - Urban Spaces as a New Kind of Public Sculpture (1.5 CEC, DBPR Pending)

“E. Pluribus Unum” — ”Out of many, one.” It’s the motto of the United States, yet few citizens understand its meaning. Artist and designer Walter Hood calls for national landscapes that preserve the distinct identities of peoples and cultures, while still forging unity. Hood believes spaces should illuminate shared memories without glossing over past — and present — injustices. To guide his projects, Hood follows five simple guidelines. The first — “Great things happen when we exist in each other’s world” — helped fire up a Queens community garden initiative in collaboration with Bette Midler and hip-hop legend 50 Cent. “Two-ness” — or the sense of double identity faced by those who are “othered,” like women and African-Americans — lies behind a “shadow sculpture” at the University of Virginia that commemorates a forgotten, buried servant household uncovered during the school’s expansion. “Empathy” inspired the construction of a park in downtown Oakland that serves

office workers and the homeless community, side-by-side. “The traditional belongs to all of us” — and to the San Francisco neighborhood of Bayview-Hunter’s Point, where Hood restored a Victorian opera house to serve the local community. And “Memory” lies at the core of a future shorefront park in Charleston, which will rest on top of Gadsden Wharf — an entry point for 40% of the United States’ slaves, where they were then “stored” in chains — that forces visitors to confront the still-resonating cruelty of our past.

10:30 am− 12:00 pm Envisioning Resilience: Promoting Sustainability in an Urban Waterfront Competition (1.5 CEC, DBPR Pending)

Amy E. Morie, PLA, ASLA, Principal Mulberry Hill StudioSarah Crooks, Environmental ArtistThis course will discuss the competition as a venue for promoting resilient design using the case study of the winning 2018 Groundworks Jacksonville McCoy's Creek Competition entry. Held by Jacksonville’s Emerging Design Professionals and Groundworks Jacksonville prior to commencing design work, the competition intent was explore ideas as a catalyst for developing a trail connector through the rapidly changing Brooklyn neighborhood of downtown Jacksonville. Approached as a cross-disciplinary work between art and landscape architecture, the winning entry expanded the scope beyond the program call for a park and trail system with recreation amenities. Interpreting a vibrant system involved exploration of the resiliency of the creek trail as an entire system, from climate and contamination to cultural history and social justice. Starting with both on-the-ground and at-the-desk approaches to research and synthesis, this course will explore creating a foundation and using it to design resilient approaches to the ecological, cultural and historical fabric of a neighborhood. We will also look at the potential of competitions to showcase sustainable strategies and be a catalyst for comprehensive resiliency planning and design.
