Nexus is a beachside system for waste collection and community building in the east end of Long Island.
Nexus was conceived as a multi-pronged solution to a pressing issue in the area: excessive litter on the beaches, resulting in decreased enjoyment for residents + visitors and posing a danger to local wildlife.
By surveying and consulting with local stakeholders, I envisioned a service design strategy which could address the various issues at hand. The final concept is comprised of a uniform waste-collection system for all Southampton town beaches, a wayfinding station, and a branding/identity plan for Southampton to unite and represent the various demographics converging at these beaches.
