What do architects, landscape architects, and transportation planners have
in common? What role does design have in transportation advocacy? Come
investigate the movement of people and the ability of designed spaces to
support and influence. See how architecture and landscape architecture can
make cities more socially and environmentally sustainable.
*Shauna Gillies-Smith* ASLA, LEED AP will highlight landscape architecture
and public art projects where the design and pedestrian experience
determined the space. Shauna is principal of Ground Inc., a landscape
architecture firm. Trained first as an architect and urban designer, her
shift to landscape practice was motivated by the desire to reveal the
potentials of surprise and pleasure in the urban experience.
*Mark Pasnik* RA, LEED AP will focus on a project that engaged students with
alternative transportation ideals, but fulfilled them through facility
design rather than traditional advocacy. Mark is the founding principal of
over,under, a multidisciplinary design firm located in Boston's South End,
and director of pinkcomma gallery, which showcases contemporary design work
from the Boston area.
