Completed as part of masters thesis studies at Boston Architectural College in 2011. The theoretical portion of this project created a set of design tools based on that of the film director. By relating the syntactic language of film to specific architectural tools and concepts, I attempted to show how greater

understanding of the relationship between the two disciplines can create meaning in space.

Project:! Graphic Design of maps and ! informational elements for CPALI! booth at Dwell on Design 2014 - ! Los Angeles Convention Center.Client: ! CPALI and Architecture for ! Humanity Boston! Spring 2014

Worked with designers from Architecture for Humanity Boston to conceptualize, design, and execute large scale maps and informational panels for CPALI’s booth at Dwell on Design 2014. Panels illustrated the dire need of new business models for Madagascar that do not tax the the increasingly fragile environment and CPALI’s community

efforts to educate and develop silk farming in the region. The booth also showcased fabric and products from farmers.

MEET SOSOASosoa is a subsistence farmer who has been working with the SEPALI program since 2009. !She lives with her husband and three children in a coastal fishing village on the edge of the rainforest. !Sosoa is a subsistence farmer who has been working with the SEPALI program since 2009. She lives with her husband and three children in a coastal fishing village on the edge of the rainforest. !With training from SEPALI and help from her community, Sosoa planted 250 native host trees on her land. !When the trees were large enough to support silkworms, Sosoa participated in an intensive training program with SEPALI. !Sosoa became a leader in her community. She designed new equipment for the silkworms, attracted new people to the project and was elected President of the farmers’ group in her community. !Sosoa also took on an active role in the SEPALI women’s groups. Now, she travels regularly with her group to the SEPALI demonstration site to sew textile, earning additional income for school tuition, food, and household goods. !Sosoa is proud of her role in the program. Through her silk production success and new skills with a sewing machine, Sosoa can now make enough money to send her three kids to school. !Today, Sosoa has 300 mature host trees on her property. Among her trees, she grows pineapple, sugarcane and cassava and has high hopes for planting her first vegetable garden next year. !Sosoa is just one of over 300 subsistence farmers working with the SEPALI program in Madagascar. Spread across 13 communities on the borders of the rainforest, these farmers are making a difference for their communities and the fragile rainforest that surrounds them. !One farmer at a time, one tree at a time, one cocoon at a time, SEPALI is supporting the people and forests that keep our planet healthy.

SHIFT BOSTON - EARTHOS INSTITUTECreated for Earthos Institute’s entry into the Shift Boston competition, this project was conceptualized to highlight Earthos’ intellectual concepts of “Bioregional Urbanism”. Using the tool of narrative as it relates to social policy and anthropology, this project envisioned a Boston of the future that is shaped by water level rise, re-population of natural habitats and emphasis on urban and vertical agriculture. ! !

“In our city, every child can walk to a naturalized area for play, classes, and sharing ideas with bio-rangers.  My eight year old granddaughter Lupe was the one who noticed that water in Kennedy Brook was a bit low and helped Bioranger Anna reduce impervious surfaces in the South Boston New Yankee Zone to increase stream flow."  —Jesus Hernandez, Bio-farmer

“I grow energy through biofuels in a converted industrial building six stories up. My plants are a no waste no emissions operation, even the compost goes to build the soil on our green roof overhead.” —Isaac Amaka, Bio Fuel Supplier

“As a farmer I help provide food security for all Bostonians. I have two plots in an Enterprise Zone, but I also tend the green roof on my apartment building. Some days I walk to one of my plots on the fourth floor of a vertical farm where I grow rice to feed the city. Other days I tend a ground level plot of copice wood and shade tolerant understory crops. My neighbor Elva has just built a milpa in the new water storage and agriculture pond. I am looking forward to fish from the pond and sweet corn from her garden beds.” —Nahor Molinero, Enterprise BioRanger

Encourage sustainable, resource independent lifestyles

“It was time for new ways of living with the land...In the self-sufficient city, people live the new stories. They are empowered through education, dialogue and economic policy incentives to change they way they live to act in harmony with the earth’s systems—incorporating renewable energy systems, water harvesting and local food production into their lives, into their industries and into their professions. As the New Economy emerges, they are encouraged to start local cottage industries built on local renewable resources. Self-sufficiency means local production, and sustainable local production means more security and a higher quality of life for all-biota as well as humans.”

"I raise some of the best oysters in new Boston Harbor in the calm estuarine habitat created by the seawall, through careful and patient harvesting my oysters grow almost as big as the ones found here 5,000 years ago.  Thank goodness we made the harbor a fishable, swimmable, place by removing storm water discharge and switching to zero-waste disposal."  —Frederick Johnson, Oyster Farmer

Biorangers...Several of the most influential careers in New Boston are our various biorangers. These champions of the natural world manage natural and human uses of resources within both regional forest and enterprise zones. Following the concept of “natural predators”, biorangers ensure that when resources are taken for human use, enough remains to support thriving ecosystems. They are advocates for the non-human first, but also advise on use of economic incentives for human prosperity.  Biorangers protect and prevent, but more importantly they help create New Boston by positive actions and engagement in balancing the human and non-human communities.

“Our neighborhood works together to make sure that we can produce enough electricity for everyone on the block. Not everyone has sun exposure, so we trade kilowatts for backyard veggies or extra captured rainwater.” —Osborn Reed, Solar Technologist

“I own a local food supply shop. We offer everything in bulk, most of it locally produced. People rent the food containers and return them when they are done. This way, we are supporting the cradle to cradle, no-waste agreement.” —George Russo, Grocer

“Education is our highest value. It is only through education, that we can reach self sufficiency. All children receive an education fund, ensuring that they have enough food, clothing, and heat to focus on school and studying. Hungry children do not learn as well, and our society benefits from making sure everyone is educated.” —Hiroko Sapporo, Principal

Good design + Sustainable Resource Budget Policies = Self-Sufficient Cities

New Boston stories = new ways to visualize the world = new ways of living with nature

KRISTIN LOHEED

Earthos proposed changes at varying scales, from neighborhood farm towers to large, urban transportation links. The Institute, also asked viewers to imagine a world where young people were conscripted to tend land and wild areas as Bio-Rangers.

New Barrier Systems...Inner Barrier: To protect the city from

rising seas, New Bostonians incrementally reinforce the existing

harbor islands beginning with the Metro Loop. !Later, water levels in the harbor itself are controlled by the dike system using locks built into the barrier. !A water circulation system maintains brackish conditions in the harbor.Outer Barrier: reconstructed

marsh lands and expanded barrier beaches re-naturalize the

area and support ocean farming and energy systems, providing

additional protection for the city during extreme high water events.

Wind turbines provide a substantial percentage of the city’s electricity needs.!

!

New Enterprise Zones...The New Economy is emerging in the new enterprise zones. Natural resources are sustainably cultivated and harvested from these zones. Parcels are controlled by the people who own them and may live on them, with decisions made through consultation with Biorangers to optimize economic incentives. The intensity and type of use varies depending on proximity to urban cores, sensitive ecological systems or environmental corridors. Often formerly highly urbanized or suburbanized zones, they are ”re-naturalized” for high tech and intensive urban agriculture, cradle to cradle manufacturing, live-work, or open space. They are different in each community, based on needs, existing realities and available resources. Zone by zone, people work on policies that lead to a future that includes food independence, and a vital and creative new economy.

Watershed Management...Water use=local renewable water supply. In the self-sufficient city, total water consumption equals renewable water supply. We include virtual water used for production of food, clothing and other needs in our equation. Water management techniques include reducing impervious surfaces, localizing waste treatment, and eliminating storm water drainage. Local agriculture and manufacturing ensures water self sufficiency . We also collaborate with cities around the globe to capture as much water on land to prevent it from entering the oceans, helping to reduce the impact of global sea level rise.

Environmental Corridors... are connected wild lands that maintain the integrity of ecosystems and biodiversity. These linked corridors exist at different scales throughout the US and the Western Hemisphere—smaller in urban areas and increasingly larger as they move into the continental interior. By supporting ecosystems at multiple scales, the self sufficient City of New Boston ensures a healthy natural resource base for future generations.

Enhanced Density Zones...All primary business and residential elements of the city are within 800 meters of a transportation line. This pattern defines boundaries for the new enterprise zones, as illustrated in the policy diagram. The re-conceptualized radial Metro system promotes the use of trains, subway and bikes and condenses development along transportation lines. It offers a new circumferential loop–an elevated monorail–that wraps the city just outside the urban ring. It connects the outer tier

of town centers–which were functionally part of the urban fabric but not linked to the inner core—to the

urban zone. Wind Turbines are located along the loop creating energy for the city.

“It is time for new settlement processes... Our overall strategy—to reduce our human footprint and enable space for natural systems restoration. We do this by increasing density along transportation lines and reintroducing natural systems into the urban fabric extending environmental corridors into the city itself.

The goal of the new pattern is to create a new relationship with the earth, in which humans are living within sustainable resource budgets, engaging with and learning from natural systems, and improving quality of life as a result.”

We have established processes that will gradually morph the city towards self sufficiency. The people of the city make it self sufficient, and incentive systems support their efforts... to celebrate continuity of natural and cultural systems throughout the city.”

Bioregional Planning...The self sufficient city of New Boston is bioregional, mimicking natural systems. We measure resource consumption and production in the bioregional, and implement policies that support bioregional health. Our efforts include drawing suburban dwellers into the city to reestablish the forest systems as part of the environmental corridors.

Primary Transit Systems and Enhanced Density Zones

Relationships-Environmental Corridors and Enterprise Zones

Cultural HubsA self sufficient city is a peaceful city. New Boston is a creative, global hub, where elements of different cultures live together and are celebrated. Neighborhoods express and showcase their cultural traditions, creating pride and drawing visitors from around the world. These hubs also engage with and learn from natural systems.

Net Zero Energy Management...In the self-sufficient city, total energy consumption

equals renewable energy supply. Neighborhoods are encouraged to create co-ops to ensure that every neighborhood supplies its own energy. Wind turbines on the outer barrier systems and the transportation loop supply additional energy to the city.
