Work Samples
Designing Streets for Kids
With the Global Designing Cities, I participated in the creation of Streets for Kids, a new design guide that aims to inspire leaders, inform practitioners, and empower communities to make urban streets better serve children and their caregivers.
Interim-street Interventions Workshop
Changing decades of embedded practice in urban street design can be challenging. Limited funding, regulatory restrictions, and a lack of proven local precedents can lead to hesitation in the face of innovative design solutions. Interim design strategies–such as tapping into the low-cost power of paint, flexi-posts, and planters–are a method to enable faster change. Cities can use quick-build tools and tactics to improve their streets and public spaces in the near-term.
For this session, an interactive game was created to better understand the actions and challenges in the process of implementing, and measuring the effectiveness of temporary street interventions. The audience was composed mainly by city governments.
Center for Territorial Intelligence
Urban studies research center that responds to complex territorial problems, from applied scientific research to innovative development.
I supported the development of studies related to socioeconomic impacts in a copper mining city in Chile, residential segregation in Santiago, crime recidivism, amongst others.
Underground Social Spaces
Can subway performances help democratize the arts by bringing culture to under-served communities? Where are musicians playing and who are they reaching? What are the current regulations that restrict or permit their contributions?
By comparing the cultural offer in New York City with the subway population, in addition to analyzing locations, ridership and current regulations, this paper presents a first approach in understanding subway musician’s contributions to culture in New York City.
