Landscape Architecture students Ava Yon, Nina Dunigan, and Christopher Nosek received a 2026 Michigan ASLA Merit Award in the General Design category for "Shaping Resilient Shores," their fourth-year juried studio project led by Dr. Mahsa Adib.

Developed in partnership with the Michigan Department of Natural Resources, the project tackles a central challenge at Holland State Park, one of Michigan's most visited destinations: protecting fragile coastal systems while serving over two million visitors a year.

By pairing natural systems with targeted design, it reframes ecological restoration and public access as allies and offers a scalable model for high-demand shorelines, reflecting SPDC's commitment to sustainability, community partnership, and resilient, people-centered design.

On Friday, October 9th, the LA program and LA Alumni Advisory Board (LAAAB) hosted their first ever Vertical Studio. Dozens of students gained practical experience working alongside professional landscape architects in an intensive workshop setting.

Open to all LA students, the session began with an informal lecture showcasing a range of green infrastructure projects, from individual site-scale applications to comprehensive community-wide systems of stormwater management.

After the lecture, students and professionals worked together in small groups to plan, design and present a green infrastructure site proposal.

The Vertical Studio allows participants to broaden their understanding of how green infrastructure can be implemented across multiple scales and how individual site interventions can collectively contribute to larger, integrated stormwater management systems.

Plus, its a wonderful way to build connections and foster community within the LA discipline!

Thank you to all who participated and especially to those who volunteered their time to make this event possible. We're excited to see the LA Vertical Studio continue and flourish!
