  • Joanna C. Diman (1901–91):: A “Cantankerous” Landscape Architect at Skidmore, Owings & Merrill
    Journal of the Society of Architectural Historians, 2018
    Co-Authors: Nicholas Adams
    Abstract:

    Joanna C. Diman (1901–91): A “Cantankerous” Landscape Architect at Skidmore, Owings & Merrill presents a biographical overview of Diman9s career as a Landscape Architect. Using hitherto unpublished sources, Nicholas Adams traces Diman9s progress from her training at the Lowthorpe School of Landscape Architecture for Women (from which she graduated in 1923) through her early work for individual practitioners. For a decade beginning in 1934, she worked for the New York City Department of Parks. In 1944, she joined the New York office of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, where she worked until her retirement in 1967. Archival sources at SOM reveal that she was involved to differing degrees in nearly all projects that passed through the firm9s New York office, from the relatively small garden at Lever House to the great works of “pastoral capitalism,” such as that at Connecticut General in Bloomfield, Connecticut (1957). Adams raises questions of stylistic individuality and places them alongside the larger issue of what influence an in-house Landscape department had on design at SOM during these years.

  • VISUAL PRIORITIZATION PROCESS
    Transportation Research Record, 1995
    Co-Authors: Lola Eileen Mason
    Abstract:

    Incorporating aesthetics into corridor design in necessary, especially with the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA). The challenge is how to incorporate aesthetic quality and transportation safety within budget constraints. The Visual Prioritization Process (VPP) was created to meet this challenge. The VPP is based on the fact that visual quality does vary and that a blanket approach to mitigation is not the best design. By prioritizing the visual elements, all areas will receive the minimal amount of mitigation with increases in mitigation only where necessary. The Landscape Architect and civil engineer work closely to ensure that the concerns of each are met.
