DISNEY CITY PROJECT
Multi-Disciplinary Design Optimization
SUMMARY
TIMELINE
TEAM
Infrastructure is all around us. During my internship at Disney Research China (DRC), our team of Disney City investigated how infrastructure systems might best integrate with human-centered urban designs. I assume the responsibility to research on how the different spatial layouts will impose influence on pedestrians' experience and the efficiency in the infrastructural clusters.

I Defined And Built The Following Human-Centered Metrics
Walkability
How easy is it for someone to get from point A to point B in an urban space?
Convenience
How convenient is it for everyone who is living in the urban space to get to the city center?
Diversity
How many different types of building can a person see within a walk of a given distance?
