The site plan that I have come up with will be water efficient while also allow for optimal beauty. With mainly threes and other plants on the south side of the park that is where the main focus of the water is going to go. But for the north side, or the front side, the water will be used for the restrooms and the small patches of grass but other than that the water use is minimal and the plants that are used on the south side will not require to much water.

This Step

Summary

What should I upload in the Final Design step?

  • final hand or digital renderings
  • images of your finished physical model
  • or your finished digital model

You can even include links to a YouTube or Vimeo of a digital walk-through like this one: https://youtu.be/ncaVQ2V6XXU

Adaptive Reuse

Architects often find creative ways to reuse old structures that are no longer in use. Check out how old rail lines were adapted to create New York's High Line and Chicago's 606.

Comments

In earlier comments you made decisions based on the existing site, including the idea that you would design around two existing trees -- but I am not seeing them in the final renderings - or maybe you're not discussing them in your captions?
