Metropolitan Transportation Commission Mobility Hubs 2021-2022
The MacArthur BART Mobility Hub located in Oakland, CA will welcome travelers to a variety of transit options (walking, biking, micromobility, bus, rail) available at this anchor site with a universal design focus. The project team has designed a solar charging station for both personal and shared e-bikes and e-scooters. Updated station maps and wayfinding redesign has also taken place to make it easier for riders to connect with multiple buses, shuttles, and bike share. |

Autodesk Technology Centers Residency in San Francisco 2019-2022
The SeaShift Collaborative is an interdisciplinary team designing for where architecture, product design, material science, marine biology, and microbiology meet. SeaShift set out to design a floating research device to aid citizens and scientists in studying microplastics in the Bay. This device, the Living Data Pod, placed at urban shorelines accessible to schools and the public, puts the collection of water quality data in the hands of citizens. |

Alameda Creek Atlas, Research Category Winner, Great Places Awards, 2019
Environmental Design Research Association
The place research represented by the Alameda Creek Atlas, is part of multi-pronged effort to build resilience to climate impacts in the watershed through planning and design for sediment transport and Steelhead Trout habitat. Engaging communities and stakeholders within the research and planning of the watershed supported the creation of a feed-back loop, whereby local experts shared broad and diverse conceptualizations of the watershed as a place to the design and research team, and project members then reflected these conceptualizations back to inform a constituency that might advocate for the necessary changes within the watershed.

Austin Green Awards for the Electric Drive Solar Kiosk 2017
“An aspirational little project, Electric Drive demonstrates that small interventions can have big meaning in terms of energy production, consumption and education. This submission is unique in the the project's end purpose is the generate clean energy, so sustainable design decisions are mandatory." - 2017 Austin Green Award Judge
