In 2021, I created a systems map of how to create a sustainable city. I looked at how cities function and explored the idea of building and supporting communities across urban areas. I designed a series of infographics that detailed different avenues for developing green spaces, public transportation, and rezoning. My task was to showcase all the players in the system map, including citizens, city offices, and investment stake holders.
I relied heavily on the idea of New Urbanism and the goal of creating 20-minute walkable communities that gave denizens access to services, transportation hubs, and green space. This project helped me gain a strong understanding of the many challenges of urban planning and community development.
