Harbor Plaza

This project focuses on the design of a civic plaza along a waterfront, serving as a space for gathering, contemplation, respite and celebration.

The design is defined by a disrupted center axis, with elements surrounding it following a strict diagrid. Architectural features, such as walls and an overhead plane, align with the central axis of the diagrid, while the landscaping, waterfront edge, and pier establish the perimeter, integrating the space with its surroundings.
