I couldn't upload my video because of large file size. However, the full version of the video can be watched at https://youtu.be/K4KByCie3Y4 (Youtube) (The video shows the coffee shop that I couldn't upload because of lack of space. The coffee shop is located in the middle leaf of the three main leaves of the shade)

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.

I absolutely love your park! From the shapes of the shades and the landscape to all the materials used, your entire design really evokes a natural feel! Utilizing the stained glass for for both aesthetics as well as ambience was also a very nice touch! Great job!

The only thing I would suggest is to eliminate the grass areas. Since you made water usage a priority in your park, perhaps replacing these softscape with hardscape can make your park more eco-friendly.

You've got a great layout that will fit well inside of the space it would occupy. I think you took account the surround area well in your design; a new downtown, large tech firms, retail zoning.
