Succulent Plant Palette
UCLAx
Plant Studies: Shrubs
This project explores a sculptural, drought-adapted planting strategy organized into three hydrozones responding to sun exposure and microclimate. Rather than relying on dense planting or seasonal color, the design prioritizes form, texture, and long-term performance, using succulents and succulent-adjacent species as living architectural elements. Distinct plant geometries—columnar, branching, radial, fan-shaped, and ground-hugging—shape space through silhouette, spacing, and contrast, creating a resilient and visually legible landscape over time.

InstagramMy work explores how people move through, gather in, and form emotional relationships with landscape spaces. I’m interested in the balance between contemplation and activity, circulation and pause, and how planting, shade, seating, and spatial sequencing shape experience at the human scale.
