PHOTO TITLE5

Rehabilitation, Ecotourism, and Species Reintroduction

Alvar is a globally recognized at-risk plant community that develops naturally over the course of thousands of years, and also naturally exists on exposed limestone bedrock, which is subsequently one of the greatest indicators of suitable areas for limestone quarrying.

By utilizing recent techniques proven to be effective in Alvar regeneration, the landscape architect acts as a pivotal tool in creating a functional landscape, both in terms of environmental, social, and economic integrity. Using an ecotourism-based approach to engage the public with the site, while creating a platform for Alvar regeneration and future scientific research initiatives provides an economic, ecological, and social solution to some of the most negatively viewed aspects of the area.

This is an alternative solution to traditional quarry rehabilitation strategies as well as the at-risk Alvar plant communities: strengthening it by reintroducing it in a post-industrial landscape, while raising awareness about its historic and ecological significance in an ecotourism-based outlet.

Using scientifically proven methods of reintroducing Alvar plant communities, this design seeks to not only introduce the Alvar into a working environment, but to engage and educate the public who is viewing the site, while simultaneously providing a research outlet for the further research and development of Alvar plant communities

Prairie Shrubland Alvar is a more shrubby and lichen-based community, which uses the Alvar planting squares to foster succession, with the squares planted approximately 5m apart

White Spruce Alvar has more trees, which isn’t condusive to the square planting method. A dense amount of trees are planted randomly, and only the strongest ones survive through succession

With the main focus on rehabilitation, ecotourism, and species reintroduction, the interventions focused on interpretive designs and signage, with various educational aspects. These include succession markers to help visualize the natural changes in the Alvar communities, as well as perforated aluminum paths to allow for water and sun permeation for seamless plant growth.

Regional Issue at a Small Scale

Slow Food is the slowing down of the food consumption process so the consumers are aware of where food comes from, how it’s processed, and what work is involved from getting the food from “cradle-to-mouth”. It was derived to try and combat the issue of fast food mania, promoting healthy, organic foods to the public. It aims to bring awareness to where food comes from, with a goal of encouraging people to take time to sit and think about where their food is coming from, where it is going and how these affect both humans and the environment. This design is situated on the University of Manitoba campus in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Being an agricultural university, this is a pertinent issue and creates a local, sustainable, multicultural, and transparent food production and distribution process in the heart of the campus. Slow Food Campus raises this awareness, while showcasing how food can be beautiful and used as an aesthetic and productive source of nutrition.

ARCADIA FLOOD ISLANDS PERSPECTIVE

Mitigating Environmental Issues Through Design

Being on the prairies and on an existing flood plan, Winnipeg has a long history of serious, and often detrimental floods. Engineered technologies such as the floodway and a series of dikes and drainage system has proven effective, however they lack the aesthetic quality that one might wish to see. Arcadia is functional, however it also provides an aesthetic appeal that could be implemented on a larger scale throughout the Winnipeg area. By incorporating this design on a larger scale, the floods can not only be further controlled and manipulated, but it can also serve as an eye-catching and intriguing solution. This specific design was intended to be an ‘oasis’ retreat just outside of the city’s boundaries, where people can go to relax, unwind, and learn about the environment.

BENCH RENDERING14

PRAIRIE BENCHOverview

This was a specific competition held by Barkman Concrete, and the mandate for this competition was to design a bench that could be used in external public spaces in a prairie city.

My submission won first place. The bench design presented, “Prairie Bench”, was developed from the notion to develop a simple, versatile, easily built, yet sleek and stylish bench that encompasses a prairie vibe to its design. Anchored by two wet-cast concrete forms with a smooth finish, the bench is softened by the use of wood for the seating panels. The chosen wood is reclaimed American Elm. This seemed fitting in the Winnipeg prairie setting, since the American Elm is iconic as a historical street tree, and has tragically been in decline due to Dutch Elm Disease. Reclaiming this wood is a way to reuse the defunct street trees, while adding to the unique prairie vibe that this bench encompasses. Turning the 2” x 4” planks on their narrow side, and having them set at varying lengths mimics the varying lengths of wheat stalks, another staple of prairie life.”

The bench ended up being built by Barkman Concrete, as they view it as a potential bench to put on their product list.

Technical Document Drawings and Specifications

In addition to the previous project highlighted, studio projects taken over the course of my degree also required the use of CAD software, such as AutoCAD and VectorWorks to create proper technical documents for the designs. This helped ensure that I not only understood how to use the software and the nature of these plans and how to read them, but to help ensure that the designs would be reproducible in real time, as well as how to ‘read’ the landscape.

The adjacent images are samples from various projects, illustrating my understanding of this imperative tool and technique.

Hand Drafting and Model Construction

NOW AND THENOverview

As part of my first year in the Master of Landscape Architecture program, I was first introduced to the notion of hand drafting and model construction without the use of modern technology, utilizing only ‘everyday’ materials. The outcome was a greater appreciation for drafting, an increase in my hand rendering skills, and a sound understanding of drawing and modeling to-scale.
