ID4 is a comprehensive exploration of the principles and practices that shape the built environment in urban settings. We delve into the intricate art of designing and planning cities, considering factors such as functionality, aesthetics, and sustainability. Through a combination of theoretical studies and practical exercises, the class covers topics ranging from land use and infrastructure to community engagement and sustainable development. We gained hands-on experience in utilizing design tools, analyzing urban contexts, and proposing innovative solutions to enhance the livability and functionality of urban spaces. This dynamic course equips students with the skills and insights needed to contribute meaningfully to the creation of resilient, vibrant, and well-designed urban landscapes.

Pollinator Haven’ is a multifaceted initiative aimed at fostering symbiotic relationships between pollinators, plants, and people within urban communities. By strategically cultivating pollinator-friendly gardens and green spaces, the project not only enhances biodiversity and supports crucial pollinator populations but also serves as a catalyst for community engagement and environmental stewardship.
