This is an aerial view of my site. It has actually come along such a great journey since the beginning. Although, it looks like there's a lot of open space around the central area...that's exactly how I wanted it. I wanted there to be this hidden oasis behind the wall of trees that surround it.

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

The park is simple and well thought out. I like how you thought about putting benches under trees for the purpose of shade.

I can see that the long journey was definitely worth it :)
