项目陈述
Project Statement
路易斯安那州正面临土地流失危机。在过去的一个世纪里，该州的地貌经历了巨大的变化，这给许多路易斯安那居民带来了挑战。2023年的《沿海总体规划》是一份动态的文件，它指导并总结了该州在减少风险和沿海恢复项目方面的全州投资策略。
景观设计师主导了该项目的视觉设计，包括：重新设计整体规划的图形标识，改善项目和数据的可视化效果，增强阅读理解，并重新聚焦于以社区为中心的叙事结构。该计划揭示了减少沿海风险和恢复项目背后的过程，并传达了与这些景观及其依赖的生计相关的价值。
Louisiana is facing a land loss crisis. Over the past century, the state has experienced massive changes to its landscape that pose challenges to many Louisianans. The 2023 Coastal Master Plan is a living document that guides and summarizes the state’s coastwide investments in risk reduction and coastal restoration projects.
Landscape architects led the document’s visual communications strategy: reframing the overall plan’s graphic identity, improving project and data visualizations, enhancing reading comprehension, and refocusing on a community-centric narrative structure. The plan demystifies the processes behind coastal risk reduction and restoration projects and communicates the value of the landscape and the livelihoods tied to it.

项目说明
Project Narrative
自20世纪30年代以来，路易斯安那州已经失去了超过2000平方英里的土地，流失的土地被墨西哥湾吞噬，这一损失由人类活动和环境因素引起，并因气候变化和暴风雨而加剧。2005年飓风卡特里娜和丽塔摧毁了路易斯安那的沿海地区后，路易斯安那州立法机关成立了沿海保护与恢复管理局（CPRA），任务是协调联邦、州和地方的恢复工作。自2007年以来，CPRA开发了一系列《沿海总体规划》，帮助评估和规划沿海各类项目，这些规划方案汇聚了科学家、工程师、环境专业人士、政策制定者和路易斯安那州公民的共同专业知识，以应对气候变化后的未来挑战。这些规划推动了超过214亿美元的投资，投入到这一关键性的景观保护工作中。
在2023年《沿海总体规划》中，景观设计师主导了整套文件的视觉设计和图形标识，以及面向公众和社区参与的宣传材料，包括：模型输出地图、区域航拍图、说明性图表、数据可视化和每个项目、教区、社区和地区的实际信息。这项合作为期三年，主要目标包括提升规划的视觉可访问性、理解力，并将地区和地方风貌融入到整体叙事结构中。
该规划的一个重大变化是重新构建对变化景观的展示方式。在以前版本的规划总图中，土地流失通常以红色标识出来。而在本项目中，景观设计师将则使用蓝色和绿色来表示土地变化。这种色彩的变化传达了一个信息，即变化是不可避免的，但社区能够适应这种变化。
团队还重新设计了图标，使其对视觉障碍者更友好，并更新了工程图表，帮助更好地展示景观的潜力。文档的内容根植于人们的实际经验，清楚地表明，普通路易斯安那居民如何为未来做好适应性准备。
该项目包括总体规划文档及其执行摘要、量身定制的情况说明书、在线数据浏览端口和关于规划的两部视频。每一项宣传材料都帮助当地领导人和居民了解与他们自身息息相关的信息，并根据信息作出决策。
情况说明图表涵盖了将受到规划影响并因此收益的区域、教区、社区和项目层面的数据概览。在线数据浏览端口则提供了更详细的信息，用户可以查看高分辨率的收益数据，搜索项目，了解沿海实施情况等。在线数据浏览端口面向两种不同类型的用户：首次使用者可以查看可用信息的概览，而回访用户可以探索多个数据集，更好地满足他们的需求。视频则解释了该规划如何帮助居民为变化的景观做好准备，政府进行规划时应该如何应对不确定性，以及每种项目类型在景观中的最佳置入方式。
总的来说，该总体规划作为全州生态恢复和降低风险的长期投资指南，与促进沿海地区可持续商业和娱乐活动的相关措施同时进行。该规划在2023年春季获得了沿海保护与恢复管理局和路易斯安那州立法机关的一致批准，是组织集体行动和资金筹集的关键工具，旨在保护和恢复沿海地区。

Project Narrative
Since the 1930s, Louisiana has lost over 2,000 square miles of land to the Gulf of Mexico due to a suite of anthropogenic and environmental factors—a staggering loss exacerbated by climate change and intensifying storms. After Hurricanes Katrina and Rita devastated coastal Louisiana in 2005, the Louisiana Legislature created the Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority (CPRA), tasking it to coordinate federal, state, and local restoration efforts. Since 2007, the CPRA has developed a series of Coastal Master Plans to help evaluate and plan the wide variety of projects across the coast, harnessing the combined expertise of scientists, engineers, environmental professionals, policymakers, and Louisiana citizens to prepare for and respond to a climate-changed future. The plans have driven investment of over $21.4 billion in this critical landscape.
For the 2023 Coastal Master Plan, the landscape architects led an overarching visual communications strategy and graphic identity underpinning the document, as well as collateral for outreach and engagement—including model output maps, aerial regional views, explanatory diagrams, data visualizations, and fact sheets for each project, parish, community, and region. The broader goals of this three-year collaboration included enhancing the plan’s visual accessibility, comprehension, and weaving regional and local identity into the overall narrative.
A major shift in the plan was reframing the communication of a changed landscape. In previous iterations of the plan, land loss was shown on maps in red. The landscape architects reframed this to show land change in blue and green. This shift in visualization communicates that change is inevitable, but communities are able to adapt.
The team also redesigned icons to make them accessible to people with visual impairments, and updated engineering diagrams to visualize the potential of the landscape. Lived experience grounds the document, making clear how the everyday Louisianan can adapt for the future.
The project included the master plan document along with an executive summary, tailored fact sheets, an online data viewer, and two videos about the plan. Each piece of collateral empowers local leaders and residents to make decisions using information specific to them.
The fact sheets consist of data overviews of plan impacts and benefits at the Regional, Parish, Community, and Project levels. The online data viewer provides an even greater level of detail with the ability to find high-resolution benefits data, search projects, understand coastwide implementation, and more. The data viewer addresses two distinct types of users: first-time users can view an overview of the available information, while return users can explore multiple data sets to better fit their needs. The videos explain how the plan can help residents prepare for a changing landscape, what it means to plan with uncertainty, and how each project type is best utilized in the landscape.
Overall, the master plan functions as a long-term guide to restoration and risk reduction investments throughout the state, undertaken in parallel to related efforts to promote sustainable commercial and recreational activities across the coast.
The plan was unanimously approved by both the Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority and the Louisiana Legislature in Spring of 2023, and is a key tool in organizing collective action and funding centered on protecting and restoring the coast.
