| dc.description.abstract | In the age of increased use of social media and Instagram comes the increased urge to replicate photos seen. Many of these photos are outdoor lifestyle photos, and many of those photos are, or could be located in sensitive ecological areas. That could mean the landscape itself or the way the photo is framed by stepping off trail. In the case of the Antelope Valley California Poppy Reserve, it’s both. This project also looks to the problem for the solution. By designing with Instagram in mind the narrative can be driven in a positive direction. Designing six site-specific landscape interventions is a way of keeping Instagram influencers, other visitors using the space, and local ecologies happy. These interventions enable influencers to create amazing content without having to step off trail to frame the view. One specific intervention is the “Scope”, which is designed to frame a photo with a kaleidoscope border. When the Scope is mounted to a permanent footing it forces people to stand and walk where it is desirable. In other words, they stay on the trail. The Scope also provides a way for people to view the surrounding landscape and take in its beauty, not just look at it. With the completion of this project, hopefully it will spark interest in other designers to spread this concept and use it in other landscapes. #Insta-Structure. | en_US |
