Pocket Park Property: Recent activity

Your final design is really interesting! I like the seating solutions you've come up with - they are both functional and sculptural. I would like to see more of your own unique drawings, sketches, and photographs throughout the design process. Be sure to document your progress and tell us about the decisions you're making and why!
Great work!

Nice on the artistic centerpiece as the site is in the art district and fits well with the theme going on in downtown right now. Renewable and modern.

I like the form of your seating area and how its connected with the pathways, the grass and the concrete area. This gives the visitors the chance to connect more with the landscape, I like that.

Again this feels much more appropriate in the brainstorming phase, since you are thinking about fixtures you are including in your project. Instead, it would better if you design your sprinklers on a CADD program or by hand to better explain your design to the viewers. Simply placing a stock image will not assist in the explanation of how this fixture will be able to serve its purpose.

I believe you should have collected more information regarding the site and the community to better understand the design problem and be able to create better solutions to them. These slides are great for your brainstorming step, but are not really optimal in the collecting information step. Think of these things the next time you research for a project.

I like the idea of the trees providing shade for the seating. However it can be helpful to add more of a selling point.

I like the way you did the pathways and the seating for your park. It will allow visitors to be able to sit among the greenery, creating a serene feel.

I like how you included a form of art into your park. It lets the public enjoy something like this for free. I also like how the park is not just flat but has different levels.
