After analyzing the open space, urban form, and infrastructure of the Buchanan Courtyard at the University of British Columbia, we chose to focus on sun and shade paths, the solar gain, and seating. Additionally, we considered the drainage, storm water management, and its relationship to the biodiversity on site.

I analyzed the Nitobe Memorial Garden on campus and Spanish Banks Beach, specifically, multisensory design,
exploring which senses I interacted with, creating a more immersive and memorable experience.
I examined this UBC site on campus and tried to capture it through all levels. I observed car and pedestrian traffic on the ground, the underground parking, water table, plumbing and tree roots below ground, and the buildings, trees and power lines placed above ground.
I observed my neighbourhood, Deep Cove, a small seaside village on the far easternmost outskirts of North Vancouver. The region has evolved throughout the years, from a quaint town my parents knew and loved, the community I grew up in and have created lasting memories, to the community it is today, affected by tourism and constant congestion.
