Developing a conceptual plan may promote the opportunities that prioritize short-to mid-term erosion mitigation and improve other subsistent relationships between culture and the landscape. This proposal requires a thorough understanding of the dynamic Arctic landscape and systems of the Kotzebue Sound, the community’s subsistence with the landscape, and deeply rooted cultural traditions. Understanding these factors will promote a design that achieves the goal and visually communicates ideas for the community.Kotzebue Sound, AKLandscape architectureArctic landscapeIñupiatClimate changeErosion mitigationCapstone Report
