HHEAL WORK
This project was for a new student housing
area on University of virginia's main campus.
Having a cultural and planning history founded
in Jeffersonian design, the new work required
an architectural relationship with Jefferson's
historical lawn. This new plan showed bar
buildings flanking a series of 3 lawn areas.
The buildings were located strategically with
steeply sloped topography.Nested within each
set of groomed landscape were the community
buildings; a library and cafeteria. The existing
campus infrastructure, the roads and sidewalks,
were woven into the site leaving convenient
access points and maintaining pedestrian safety.
• Shaping urban plan with landscape
• Integration with existing topography
• community centers
• Walking paths
