This is a site plan and elevation view of the park. Considering my aforementioned priorities, safety and scenery, this shape proved to be the best one. The width is spacious enough to accommodate the visitors. The shape of the area also provides different angles for a great view of the city. This will be further maximized with the creation and placement of the structure. Since I plan on making this about two to three stories high, placing it near the entrance will not only attract visitors but would also prove to cause the least obstruction to any other parts of the park.

Summary

Take A Book, Return A Book

Parks can be places to read, learn, dream, and share - Check out the Little Free Library project! They're popping up in communities all over the world!

What should I upload in this Brainstorm Ideas step?

Consider uploading

  • hand sketches
  • site plan drawings
  • a quick study model of all your first ideas.

You can scan these drawings or take photos of your model.

Comments

These are great sketches in which clearly show the site plan layout. I'd like to note good it is to have so many place for people to sit, relax, and enjoy themselves. Thank you for sharing!

Thank you vincentvlvong! I thought that creating multiple, relatively small spaces was the best way to produce both social and private spaces. With the rising population of the neighborhood, it was also important to include ample seating areas in order to accommodate the visitors.
