Jonathan Moore's portfolio contains a variety of planning and design projects from his academic and professional experience. It includes a master plan for a high-density development in Seoul, South Korea, precedent studies of new towns, revitalization plans for neighborhoods, aviation facility design, GIS analysis of Detroit, and personal design of a waterfront cottage. The portfolio demonstrates experience with urban planning, architecture, engineering, and data analysis across residential, commercial and infrastructure projects at various scales.

These were the contest rules for the Vertical Cities Asia
2012 International Design Competition.
Our studio’s plan uses an arching park system to con-
nect the site with the future Yongsan Park to the site’s
east and the Han River to the sout and west. At the site’s
center, the park intersects with Yongsan station, one of
Seoul’s busiest transit and commercial hubs.

In preparation for Vertical Cities Asia competition each
student in the planning capstone was assigned a recent
new town or similar development around the world. The Port of Incheon
exploration of Songdo was critical to the groundwork of the
competition proposal because of its proximity to the site
and its designation as one of South Korea’s new
international business districts.

Ann Arbor is known for being a bustling
college town with a vibrant downtown
scene. Lower Town however is one area that
continually vexes developers and planners
alike and remains a under-utilized part of the
city’s urban fabric.
As part of a semester-long investigation of DINE
the area we split into teams to explore design
solutions for smaller parts of Lower Town. SHOP

Front-End Engineering Design Report for Additional Works
Site location: Nakorn sri Thammarat, Thailand
As part of the Aviation Consolidation Project, Chevron
requested the design of additional facilities to better
support its operations. The additions included interior work,
such as: new officies, a rennovation of the counter check-in
facilities, new hangar workshops; and new external facilities
such as: a covered walkway, shaded van parking, a new
waiting lounge, a new ramp office, and a shaded smoking
area.
In addition to writing and revising written portions of the
report, I worked with DEC engineers and Fenn architects
(DEC partners) to draft 3d models in Sketchup from 2d
plans.

8. Waterfront
Cottage
PERSONAL DESIGN PROJECT
future getaway house
site location: to be imagined...
Growing up along the Maine and Massachusetts coasts and
visiting their many lakes I have long desired to one day design
and build my own small waterfront home. This desire was
further stoked while landscaping during undergrad
summers.
While this effort is modest and decidedly amateur, I feel I still
capture the essential elements I want in a future design: a
yin-yang layout combining an intimate bedroom and library
opposite an open kitchen and living room, along with a water
view and ample deck space. The landscaping also uses thie
contrast between intimate and open spaces with a flower
garden and sitting area offsetting a flexible lawn area. I used
dimensions from Sarah Susanka’s The Not So Big House as
a starting point and chose lots of wood and stone materials to
give it an old and naturalistic feel.
