My two groups of users are LGBT Community members and friends of the LGBT community. I wanted to create a non-discriminative site intervention that could be used by all kinds of people. I was inspired by vertical gardens, the Highline, and Deborah Sussman, an environmental designer.
Concept development:
My embodied experience is to feel calm while surrounded by chaos. Some of my objectives to accomplish are for organized groups and individuals to use the space for interaction amongst themselves or strangers.
Concept development continued: contains illustrations of design concepts.
Prototypes for Testing:
Map of User Experience
The users will further utilize the park’s yard, which is currently only used by dogs and their owners. As of recently, the yard has been fenced off because of the lack of use. The park is focusing on keeping the yard looking lush rather than having few people use it.
Digitized Perspectival Vignette
The site intervention will be in the middle of the yard. Below is a scale perspective of the project.
