Olivia Haynie

Spring 2020 seminar: B.Arch. candidate, architecture

Olivia Haynie is a fifth-year bachelor of architecture student currently focusing on the evolution and layering of the urban environment over time. With a specialization in visual representation merging digital and manual techniques, her current thesis explores the spatial evolution of cities with a focus on ground formation. She is interested in spatial theory and its implications beyond the realm of architecture, including fashion, exhibition, furniture design, and large-scale painting. Bridging disciplines, her work has focused on informality and adaptive architecture, mass customization in housing, movement and dance notation, utopian architectural visions, and anthropological studies into space, ritual, and vernacular logic.
