Programs Used

Group Members

The surrounding mountains and valley terrain along with the dry, hot climate were influential in the outcome of our design. We as a group focused on the surroundings and the children of the area to create a space that adds color and youthfulness to an otherwise overworked dreary environment.

Variegated means bringing color to the community. Our design focuses on the chidren of East Coachella Valley which we demonstrated by using color, interactive installations, and curved forms.

Our design manifested from the idea of childrens interests. We used shapes, curves, and color to appeal to them as well as offering them opportunities to interact, learn, and socialize. Our Community has a zone that focuses on residents and another that focuses on children. They are connected by the curved pattern on the ground, similar planting strategies, and the use of colors. Color was a continuous them throughout our site.

The Courtyard is an enclosed space that is designed to offer opportunities for gathering and escaping the harsh heat. This shady environment also mitigates climate conditions, such as wind storms and floods.

The Playscape offers opportunities for children to play, learn, and socialize. It includes The Community Center, Green Houses, and Play Lot. The Play Lot contains structures that are unique and highlight our design goals. The strucures include colored triangle shade structures that creates new colors as sunlight passes through them. As well as a mound of soft colored foam-like rocks that allow children to climb and get a view of the surrounding play area. A meandering wall, on the edge, creates outdoor rooms, keeps children secure and gives them an opportunity to interact with different types of materials on the wall.

Healing GardensWinter 2015

LA 499

Programs Used

Recruited by USC Norris Cancer Center to propose possible designs for their rooftop, hoping to create a space for patients to enjoy from their rooms. Our proposal was to use vegetation and create a veil and using various materials to activate the ground-plane, while still meeting with the limited weight requirements.

CURTAINSVines with wire connectors with be strategically placed in the space, with a variety of evergreen and decidious vines, the plant material will provide shade and color where necessary.

INTERACTIONPossible additions to the space for

more stimulation could be the addition of bird feeders or humming bird feed-

ers. In this example we have IV bag hummingbird feeders, giving this common hospital symbol a more

positive connotation.

Wood/PannelsUsing wood as a facade. It can be burnt or carved into to create patterns. It can also be used as a clean surface. Expense depends on type of wood.

LightedUsing lighting, LED for example, within the table to create a pattern as well as being visible during the late hours. More expensive depending on teh extent of the lighting.

Mosaic/TileUsing tiles or stone as a veneer on the table. More expensive and more weight. Can be somewhat reflective and can come in a variety of options.

Paint/MuralThe table becomes a canvas, being covered with paint either as a solid color or in a pattern. A less expensive option with a wide variety of outcomes/ possiblities.

SUPPORTTable allows a heavier load displacement on the rooftop, creating a space for the rows of vines.

FLOORA variety of options that are meant to guide the eye and allow visual interaction as well as mask the less asthetically pleasing aspects of the roof.
