SUMMER 2013

Problem:

 

• Miami has developed as one of the most automobile dependent cities of the country. As consequence, a larger part of the street spaces are dedicated to automobiles.

• Abundance of huge parking lots and wide streets give a hard time for the pedestrian. 

 

Concept:

 

• Informal street artists or graffiti artists use their environment as a canvas to express feelings, rebel and show their protests to society.

• Claming territory for pedestrian by modifing the landscape as if it was a "three-dimensional graffiti".

 

Solution:

 

• Large part of Biscayne Blv. is transformed into a park.

• Biscayne Boulevard will continue through an underground tunnel under the new park.

• the major intervention does not become a problem rather than a solution but it balances the amount of space dedicated to the different groups.
