SUBDIVISION SITE PLAN

Design Brief The objective of the site plan was to incorpo-rate graphic components, conceptual integration, combined with creativi-ty to design a subdivision dedicated to sustainabili-ty.

The plan was based on a thorough analysis of the cities developmental standards and by-laws. This design proposal takes into account pedestrian safety and comfort with the limited roadway ac-cess.

ARCHITECTURAL RENDERINGUniversity of Waterloo Campus, Conservation Subdivision │ Winter 2013

KEATS WAY DESIGN PROPOSALKeats Way Corridor, Waterloo, ON│ Fall 2013

Design Brief The Keats Way pro-posal was designed to highlight features catered to pedestrian experience. The two main areas that we focused on were “The Mixer,” and “The Connec-tion.” These two areas will improve pedestrian safe-ty and visual aesthetics. The design was created to increase the visual ap-peal as well as, aspects that would encourage the community to utilize the area.

INTERSECTION DESIGN PROPOSALUniversity Ave. Corridor, Waterloo, ON│ Winter 2014

Design Brief The intersection design proposal for the University Ave. corridor was designed to highlight features catered to active transportation (walking and cycling). The goal was to reconfigure the in-tersections within the des-ignated area to promote cycling use and make it safer for both modes of transportation. Currently, active transportation is minimal throughout the corridor because there is a lack of concern for proper main-tenance of the bicycle lanes, as well as narrow sidewalks.
