Competition: Wash. U./MIT Team Named Finalist in 2009 JP Morgan Chase Community Development Competition

Article: "Contingency Plans for the Bay Area's Future: The Prospect of Rising Seas Results in a Flood of New Ideas"


Derek's winning Rising Tides competition entry, co-authored by Ian Caine and Michael Heller, featured in Fall 2009 Competitions magazine.
by Michael Dulin
pp. 28-29, 60

excerpt from piece:
"In what could be the boldest move of the entire competition, their proposal really doesn't suggest any spatial strategy, with the exception of expanding wetlands as a protective measure. What they do provide, however, is an incredible diagram showing the flow of water around the state...While the proposal only makes a swipe at the issue of rising tides, in exposing the convoluted world of water resource allocation they build a very compelling case for 'thinking locally and acting globally', which in many ways, is precisely what this competition is about."

Conference / Presentation: New Orleans Under Reconstruction

Terrain Magazine Article: "Designing for the Future"



Derek's winning entry for the Rising Tides competition featured in Fall 2009 issue of Terrain - Northern California's Environmental Magazine.

by Holly Lewis


excerpt from story:
"One team thought that sea level rise might have some redeeming qualities. Derek Hoeferlin, Ian Caine, and Michael Heller, part of the winning St. Louis, Missouri architectural team that submitted the 100 Year Plan, proposed that rising sea level can actually help solve California’s water shortage problems, if the appropriate tools are used to harness it as a way to replenish the state’s freshwater sources. Currently, too much water from Northern California watersheds is shunted to the southern half of the state. The group’s winning entry, which frankly states that it is 'political first and foremost,' advocates an end to 'watershed-hopping.'

September 9, 2009

excerpt from story:

"Instead of working with the water, he (Hoeferlin) points out, Army engineers have tried to overpower it with levees. Keeping the water out is exacerbating subsidence, making things worse not better, he says. A better solution is to work with nature.

'Room for water, at multiple scalesfrom backyards to public rights-of-waysmust be laced into New Orleans' existing fabric and future construction techniques,' he writes."

Derek featured on Structure Hub blog.


September 2, 2009

excerpt from the story:

"One of the group’s members, St. Louis architect Derek Hoeferlin, just wrote a spot-on critique about the ridiculously short-sighted creation of numerous “urban renewal” plans that ignore the New Orleans’ fundamental “location” problem. Appropriately, Hoeferlin & Dutch Dialogues don’t call for the total abandonment of the city (even though there is substantial wisdom in such a realistically-impossible proposition); instead, the emphasis is on coexistence with the water beyond the levees."

St. Louis Post Dispatch Article: "New Orleans Needs a Water Plan"



Commentary Derek authored timed with the four-year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina.

Featured in St. Louis Post Dispatch, August 30, 2009

excerpt from story:
"...instead of keeping water out in order to maximize development — a model that in any case appears futile in our current economic climate — the city must develop a more nuanced balance between the built environment and what the delta really wants to be: a soggy, sediment-rich landscape."

And here's various press about it:
Competitions Magazine
excerpt from Structure Hub: "[The] 100 Year Plan - ignores some of the obvious issues involved with sea levels and urban areas and instead focuses on another future crisis: lack of fresh water. The clever proposal involves restoring marshland, ending long-distance transport of water, introducing sustainable desalination, and generally using the changing ecological makeup of the Bay Area to address one of the many elephants in California’s room of looming disasters."

Chicken Coop Update 2009







Derek Hoeferlin's Spring 2009 Wash. U. architecture and urban design studio of 10 students and Jane Wolff's and Elise Shelley's University of Toronto landscape architecture studio of 26 students visit God's Vineyard.

God's Vineyard co-directors Earl Antwine and Noel Jones present the mission of the garden and update the studios on the current state of the coops and garden. The chicken coop is appropriately dirty, fully functioning, fully resilient, and at full capacity. It is outputting dozens upon dozens of beautiful brown and green eggs for the community. The African Geese are happy in their separate goose coop too, despite damage the goose coop received from a wind-driven projectile.

At present, the garden has a new gang of volunteers, including John Kleinschmidt - former Hoeferlin student/RECIPE member and now New Orleans transplant/intern architect at Waggonner & Ball Architects.

Teaching: Post-Katrina New Orleans, Episode IV: "OPERATION GUTTER TO GULF (or how I learned to stop worrying and love the water)"


Derek's Spring 2009 Washington University Architecture and Urban Design Studio.
Episode IV is a Spring 2009 collaborative effort between architecture students of the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts at Washington University in St. Louis and landscape architecture students of the John H. Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape and Design at the University of Toronto. The studios' charge is to assist in an ongoing effort titled Dutch Dialogues, a multi-disciplinary trans-national group led by Waggonner & Ball Architects of New Orleans, the American Planning Association and the Royal Netherlands Embassy. The overall intentions of Dutch Dialogues are to examine, research and speculate on integrated water management and infrastructural strategies for New Orleans and the surrounding region. The studios will examine water as a means to rehabilitate the urban landscape of New Orleans, positioning water within our sights and within our minds. Multiple scales of architecture, landscape, infrastructure and urbanism will be researched and designed as inextricable parts of the same whole, tracking and integrating water from the gutter to the gulf [of Mexico].

Urban Planning & Water Safety Workshop: Dutch Dialogue II


Derek participated in second of an ongoing series of workshops focusing on water management as both safety and amenity, holistically integrated in the New Orleans region. The collaborative nature of the workshop was developed by the Royal Netherlands Embassy, the American Planning Association, Waggonner & Ball Architects, the Netherlands Water Partnership and the South East Louisiana Flood Protection Authority-East. It brought multi-disciplinary Dutch and American experts together. Three scales of study were studied by three workshop groups. Derek facilitated the "Uptown Crescent" group, which included Han Meyer (Chair, Urban Design-Theory and Methods, TU Delft), Daniel Goedbloed (Civil Engineer, City of Rotterdam), Stijn Koole (Landscape Architect, Bosch Slabbers), Roelof Stuurman (Hydro Geologist, Deltares [Institute for Delta Research ]), John Klingman (Architect/Professor, Tulane University), Ray Manning (Manning Architects, New Orleans), Jeff Soule (American Planning Association), among many others.

Professional: Hoeferlin Project Manager for Unified New Orleans Plan (UNOP)


Derek collaborated with H3 Studio, Inc. of St. Louis and Waggonner & Ball Architects of New Orleans on the Unified New Orleans Plan (UNOP), a community-engaged recovery planning process which was the first plan Post-Katrina to be formally adopted by the City of New Orleans and acts as guidelines for key projects to be funded publicly and privately. Key recommendations of the plan have been incorporated in the current Office of Recovery Managment and serve as potential recovery and planning initiatives for New Orleans' future.

Derek's key role was Project Manager for Planning District 2 (Central City/Garden District) & Planning District 13 (Lower Coast/English Turn). In addition to managing the complex execution of the project and its deliverables, Derek was lead for the design, writing and production of the final reports, "A Framework for Sustainable Urban Resilience in Planning District 2" and "A Framework for Ecological Resilience in Planning District 13."
H3 Studio was one of 4 District Planners for the UNOP process. H3 Studio was also District Planner for District 8 (Lower Ninth Ward and Holy Cross) and Neighborhood Planner for District 12 (Algiers). Derek also served as Project Manager for their role in District 12.
