While the forces that shape the modern city are
both varied and complex, in recent history,
economic and functional concerns have become the
overriding generating forces of design. This
reality has provided an impoverished view of the
city that has far too often produced redundant,
homogenized urban landscapes..

In response to this seemingly bleak urban
condition, the project sets out to develop a mode
of investigation centered on a scenographic or
visual understanding of the city. Consequently,
the project proposes to investigate a visual
planning strategy that does not rely on the plan
as a point of departure, but rather begins with
an understanding of the city in elevation and
perspective.

The investigation is not concerned with an
abstract two-dimensional understanding of the
plan, but proceeds to elaborate and structure the
plan based on visual and formal characteristics
of existing conditions.

This methodology is applied to the careful
choreography of a series of sites located along
Miamis Biscayne Bay with the intent of
presenting the viewer with a new image of the
city.

The collection of projects seeks to reconstitute
the relationship between the city and the sea, a
connection that was understood at the founding of
the city but has been largely ignored or
privatized by current development trends.

The insertion of key projects at precise moments
in the fabric will help to initiate a process of
urban renewal and regeneration.

Dialectically, by establishing this series of
seemingly unrelated sites in plan, the projects
arrive at a redefinition of the city center.
