Professor Amar Sawhney assigned a project for students in his Design 4 class to design an "urban oasis" at the corner of Kendall and 107th Ave. This area is to be a mixed use development in the context of sustainable architecture and urban design and should provide residents with both entertainment and necessary daily errand activities.

Designs were judged
on the following elements:

Overall urban design
Pedestrian walkways
Environmental considerations
Neighborhood connections
