Infrastructural Urbanism: Hybridizing Our Networks, Hannah Boyd

“The story of people can be told through our infrastructure.

Divine Intervention: Designed For Social Evolution By Integrating Natural Order, Anatoshia L. Wyatt
Bachelor of Architecture Theses - 5th Year
There is a long tradition in architecture of using ordering systems found in nature and science to create built space.

Optimized Density: Rehabilitating The Tower In The Park For The 21st Century, Emmett Walker
Architecture Senior Theses
Optimized densification is the exploitation of under utilized space to create a more dynamic cooperative based density often times adding onto what is already exists. The pursuit of maximizing intelligently can help to relieve socioeconomic exclusivity, create a more ecologically sustainable lifestyle and influence social mixing. Though architecture can only have a limited influence on the social climate of a place like New York City, re-envisioning and optimizing the density of the tower in the park typology can lead to a more harmonious engagement between buildings and their surrounding context or population. Optimizing density could be the modern day American …

Cities are the Solution, Not the Problem:
While decades of suburban development might suggest otherwise, New Jersey is at its core an urban state.

But, for decades, new jersey cities have too often been portrayed as problems that need to be fixed. As the economic and lifestyle preferences of future generations shift back toward cities and …
