Master’s Thesis — Autonomous Mobility + Adaptive Urban Infrastructure

YEAR

2015

FOCUS

Future Mobility / Urban Infrastructure / Live-Work / Systems Design

In 2015, my graduate thesis asked:

“What happens to the city when cars no longer need drivers - or parking spaces tied to their users?”

Starting with San Francisco’s congestion, parking infrastructure, emerging ride-sharing economy, and autonomous vehicle technology, I developed a citywide network of mobility hubs and an architectural prototype designed to support that transition. The proposal combined high-density vehicle storage and support infrastructure with live/work, research, and public program in an adaptable kit-of-parts system capable of being replicated and scaled across the city.

Rather than treating new technology as an isolated product, the project explored its second-order effects on real estate, infrastructure, urban behavior, and architecture - moving from citywide systems analysis to a single building prototype.
