To rethink fire within a broader urban system of combustion in the landscape, this project reframes combustible landscapes as a design opportunity through fire simulation modeling, land management planning, and site design for an Outdoor Museum of Contemporary Combustion. The proposed museum bridges artificial and natural modes of urban combustion through a didactic trail in the Puente Hills of Los Angeles County to explore fire behavior as a function of ignition, topography, dryness, wind, and fuel. The museum serves as an interface between local residents and the combustible landscape.
