Growing Cities

In collaboration with the EPFL Laboratory of Urban and Environmental Systems, I transformed their scientific research on global urban growth into an aesthetic data artwork. By visualizing how cities like Shanghai and Beijing have evolved over two decades, I created an A0-sized piece that brings their findings to a wider audience in a beautiful, art-oriented way. The team aimed to move beyond traditional scientific charts to showcase their research through a more engaging lens. The design ensures that while the end result looks like abstract art at first glance, upon closer inspection, the viewer can clearly discern the underlying urban growth trends and individual city morphology.

I was approached by the Transforming Climate Action program, a team of researchers from four Canadian universities (Dalhousie University, Université du Québec à Rimouski, Université Laval, and Memorial University) working together to support just and equitable climate adaption, advance responsible marine carbon dioxide removal science and reduce critical uncertainty in the climate system. The team overseeing the massive project was looking for a visual way to show how the researchers were connected through collaborations across various projects. The resulting network is an inviting and playful way to encourage exploration and discovery of the people and projects within the program. Visitors can hover and click on nodes to discover details, filter by discipline or project, and more.
