Romare Bearden Park



In these new set of variations, I continued with the idea of allowing the "emerging" shapes to become the programatic aspects of the park.  The boxes represent public gathering spaces and circles become pavilions (or beer gardens).  In an attempt to = define the circulation within the park, paths become restricted to the negative space between the boxes and circles.  These paths are represented by an organic pixillation of green foliage created by the density of trees.  This foliage acts as the connector between spaces and creates a sense of ambiguity/randomness to the design.


In this particular variation, I found the conversation between the built and natural environment to be in balance.  The three large circles that represent the built environment are dissected by two perpendicual paths and create a gestalt central square.
