A site-planning studio project focused on revitalizing a central Eugene, Oregon, neighborhood.
Jefferson Neighborhood Studio
The work began with an initial studio deliverable: a 1-inch-equals-50-feet axonometric base map assembled from about ten separate nine-block areas, each delineated by a different student.
SITE ANALYSIS
The selected area included the neighborhood school. Walking the streets and sketching site impressions led to a highly detailed drawing.
The drawing was accurate down to the number of canisters on utility poles, and the University later featured it in an invitation to a neighborhood open forum.
My work on the O'Hara School Area base map was featured in the neighborhood open forum invitation.
Work continued through the policy and planning phase, producing proposals for a new community center, community gardens, and infill housing.
Used the axonometric base map on the left to illustrate the impacts of improvement policies, like the community center and infill housing on the right (orange and purple)
