Pocket Park
|The pocket park that I am going to design for the neighborhood will consist with a grass lot for people to walk their dogs, benches and pathways with a small pond in the middle to enjoy the view.The small playground for the kids will most likely be up in the corner for the little kids in the neighborhood to at least have something to do outside. This is designed to keep the neighborhood busy with walks in the park, playing outside, etc. The way I will incorporate this is design is to have a walkway around the park for people to walk their dogs, go walking jogging, riding bikes, etc. and grass for kids to play, jungle gym to keep them busy. Also I will include a few benches for people to sit and enjoy the view or watching their kids. The pond will be surrounded around by plants so it would be a beautiful view for the people who want to enjoy the time outside. A pocket park is a small park for the people that live in the general area can enjoy and have somewhere to go. The way i am going to make it address the community is having an area for the neighborhood to go to and enjoy, like i will have sit in areas to rest and go play on the playgrounds.
Comments
I like the different zones for people - kids, families, and public around the fountain. I think it has a bit much grass for Las Vegas, and would benefit more from shade trees. How could you design the tables, equipment, or signage to be unique to your park and not just standard pieces? You might also think about using landscape (hills, water, rock) in a more organic way. People generally prefer twisting paths to walk on than straight.
