EXP3 Follies & PARK

 In order to promote the notion of green and sustainability into my innovation, I decided to include the design of parks that connects the bridge on both ends

Firstly, according to the actual site I drew an organised outline of the park and fitting it with the bridge to trial orientations

I was inspirate by one of the themes of our 36 texture: scaler, where one of my patterns was consisting with multiple scaled circles, and that I drive this idea across to create the meeting area or lunch area on one of the big circles.

Follies Design:

From all the practises on perspective drawings, i have gained inspiration to create organic forms where the shape of and "F" is form from different perspective view points. In this case the most obvious will be on level elevation view, where the larger overhangs sculpture form Fs by virtually connecting with the smaller sculptures. (Display on the top)

The PARKS:

The northern part is located at a plaza like location according to the actual Hong Kong map, therefore to reinforce the location, the park has a bigger plaza ground compared to the southern one. This northern park also consist with 2 heights, where closer to the actual sea view, the ground is lower, so people are closer to the nature.

Park elements are as follow:

Grey - concrete

yellow - yellow tiles or yellow painted concrete

Green - grass

Blue - blue flowers

Purple - purple flowers

Red - red flowers

The Southern side of the park is where the meeting place is also located, the nearby location on the Hong Kong map is the CBD area, where people are vibrant and active. Therefore the orientation of the park elements tend to guide users from the bridge to the extension of the these ideas, where a social performance ground (dark yellow or top left corner) is included into the design, which coheres with the meeting area on the lower right.

Park elements are as follow:

Brown - timer ground (stage)

Meeting Area:

The meeting or lunch area is located on the biggest circle on one of the parks, it is spherically decorated by the follies, which enhances the organic and the fluidic flow of the whole plan.

A view from the meeting place perspective, we can clearly notice the gradual change of topography over the parks and the bridge. And as mentioned the follies are there to strengthen the idea and the dorm like shaped meeting place also in a way symbolises the duality of engineered results collaborating with architectural concept, due to the fact the lunch shelter consist a mathematic concept.
