As “The Hub” for Central Oregon, Redmond Municipal Airport (RDM) is planning
for a future expansion to respond to the rapidly growing population in the City of
Redmond. The goal of this project is to design a landscape master plan with a
cohesive theme for RDM, as well as address the goals and needs of RDM.
To achieve RDM’s goals, the studio was divided into a research phase and a
design phase. Chapter One and Two present students’ work from the research
phase, within which students conducted precedent studies as well as site
analyses. Precedent studies broaden students’ horizons on creative designs
and concepts implemented at airports around the world, from which many of the
students later drew inspiration. Site analysis was an extremely crucial process
to understand RDM’s landscape, culturally, geologically, ecologically, and
regulatory.
