Projects
This project explores the potential for a subway system in Orange County as a way to increase public transit use and create a more sustainable, connected region. The proposal considers optimal routes and stops, environmental and safety hazards, budgeting, and strategies for encouraging ridership.
This project examines how the William R. Mason Regional Park in Irvine is utilized through an ethnographic study of the space. We observed patterns of use, demographics, accessibility, and inclusivity to understand who the space serves and how privatization can impact access to public green spaces.
