The Architectural Team, Inc. (TAT), Liu's work draws on context-based research as well as global models to respond to rising sea levels, to foster revitalization, and to encourage a new mix of resilient and sustainable land uses. Liu’s current projects, including the 12-acre mixed-use development Clippership Wharf on Boston Harbor, demonstrate the benefits of holistic design approaches with resilient elements — such as hard and soft approaches to shoreline design, strategic landscaping, and elevated public use areas — that can absorb storm surges while enhancing the public realm and long-term viability.
