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.

12. 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.

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.

18. BENCH RENDERING 14
PRAIRIE BENCH
Overview
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 THEN
Overview
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.
