East Bank Greenway 'Celebrating Industrial Heritage'

East Bank Greenway

Nashville, TN

Providing a pedestrian connection to the Cumberland River, the East Bank Greenway is adjacent to the Tennessee Titans NFL Stadium Campus. 'Found Art' objects recovered from the demolition of the pre-development industrial landscape were used as monumental scale art installations and paid homage to the site's industrial past.

Transit Station Competition Winning Entry

Novo Principal Terry Naranjo was a member of the winning team entry for the North Carolina Chapter of the National Urban Land Institute (ULI) Competition "Maximizing the Transit Opportunity: Mount Baker Station Area" for a site in Seattle, Washington.

The winning entry was entitled "North Rainier, a Design to Nurture Growth" and focused on creating a revitalized urban core in an existing underutilized commercial/ industrial area in central Seattle. By combining the efforts of architects, landscape architects and MBA disciplines the competition sought a design solution that was based both on creativity, functionality, and economic feasibility. Goals of the project were to create a mixed use village that could leverage the newly constructed light-rail station with new programmatic elements in a dynamic walkable urban realm.

Also on the winning team were North Carolina State University Graduate Architecture Students Luis Guevera, Geoff Wike, James Sun; and University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Graduate MBA Student Jason Bockenek .

Medical Facility Site Design

Memorial Hermann Baptist Beaumont Hospital
Beaumont, Texas

Drawing inspiration from the architectural forms and materials was integral in the development of an exterior dining courtyard. A screen- wall provides a semi private courytard and doubles as a backdrop for a water feature.


The screen wall provides a backdrop for the water feature scuppers and lends to the privacy of the space for the users.


Courtyard near waiting area provides sensory experiences for patients, visitors, and employees.

London Transit Re-visioning

Reconfigured Multi Modal Transit Station Layout

Recently completed Masters Studio project. The scene above depicts the creation of a programmable democratic space within a new 'Urban Core' and is one of the several key moments in a re-envisioned Victoria Station rail corridor in London. Rendering by Novo Principal Terry Naranjo.

Residential Landscape Transformation

A sloping front grade for this newly built home created a design opportunity to implement a series of walls to complement the architecture.

Pedestrian Bridge - An Urban Destination

Shelby Street Pedestrian Bridge
Nashville, TN

The Shelby Street Bridge, opened in 1909 was closed to vehicular traffic in 1999. It is now used as a pedestrian bridge linking Nashville's CBD to the Titans Stadium campus on the Cumberland River's opposite side.

Much more than just a pedestrian thoroughfare; the flat main sections of the bridge provide dramatic overlooks of downtown and have become a major in-town destination complete with programmed events and activities for the public.
