​

TYPE OF PROJECT:

WOOD CONSTURCTION

​

DISIPLINE:

URBAN DESIGN

​

LOCATION:

CLIFTON, CINCINNATI

​

CONCEPT: For this project I wanted to capture and enhance the artistic spirit of Cincinnati’s Clifton neighborhood. Inspired by the area’s vibrant murals and creative flair, I envisioned sculptural structures that are both visually striking and functionally purposeful for the community. The design centers around two architectural elements that guide circulation through the space while playing with natural light. As visitors traverse the path, ample built-in seating areas around existing trees and the natural slope invite pause, rest, and observation - whether taking in a performance or simply soaking in the atmosphere. Progressing downhill, the space opens into a concession area with bar-height seating options - ready to accommodate vendors during events, but also serving as a casual gathering spot on a daily basis. Ultimately, the core goals of the space are to draw people in, promote flow and interaction, and craft an experience suffused with art, light, and imagination - mirroring the creative soul of the surrounding district.
