Involving the river into the park design in order to use more the hydric source and explode its aesthetic potential. In this sense the river would be used like lagoons too, avoiding to use drinking water to fill the lagoons, and then that the water was used as ornamental element can be used for watering plants.

a.) '''Connect''' the park to its surrounding park areas, like the Metropolitan Park area etc. This will help provide a good view to the hill and create connection solutions between ecological zones and human activities.
Including the shore of the river along its path, in order to connect the park with the rest of the park system along the river, in this way the design will join the river, Bicentennial Park and the rest of the city en a park system.

Features of design: The design aims to be a pole of physical and administrative activity, in the park are the public activities in general and the administrative one(including onto the design of the park) is in the municipality building. Moreover this park seeks to preserve some native species of Chile, including it as part of the design. the park has three different areas: (See image park areas)

a) Ramps of access, which joins the street and the park (because of the searching of privacy and visual continuity is under level of the street) under the uneven ground is the equipment program, so the land turn itself as an architecture program.

b) Central esplanade, which is the place where the most of activities occur. In this area is the pedestrian way to go along the park and the place to rest in the grass or play in the playground, as well as for children and pets. Also it is 2 lagoons the north one is reserved for the wild life by hosting different types of birds and fishes and the south one is reserved to play with boats (toys). The mass-activities has its place also in a little amphitheater and a esplanade beside the municipality building. The spiritual life is placed in a little oratory situated between the esplanade and the building.

c) The slope: which is a visual and acoustic screen that protect the park of the highway (and separates the park of the river) and create a lookout along the park.

What are the objectives of your design?

We have a good foundation to work with and we would like build upon this by trying to:

a.) Connect the park to its surrounding park areas, like the Metropolitan Park area etc. This will help provide a good view to the hill and create connection solutions between ecological zones and human activities.

b.) Trying to make the river as a part of our park, or at least connect it to the park. This will serve an ecological purpose, by attracting more animal and bird species to the park and also explore its aesthetic potential. In this sense the river would be used like lagoons too, making it possible to use water as an ornamental element.

c.) If, we are able to connect the river to the park well, we could even look at the river as a resource, be it for irrigation or energy. Including the shore of the river along its path will help connect the park with the rest of the park system along the river, in this way the design will join the river, Bicentennial Park and the rest of the city in a park system.

d.) Design green bridges to connect the Bicentennial park with the hill, in this way the visual connection achieve to become in real connection, allowing to visitors traverse the river and walking from one side of the city to the other.

All of this would in turn encourage the interaction between the park and the urban fabric. This way urban green corridors could be introduced in Santiago and these could be used for social activities and of course, make it a more sustainable environment.


And

Analytical drawings

Please add four analytical sketches/drawings (or montages/schemes) of your case. Every group member needs to contribute at least one drawing.

Projective drawings

Please add four projective sketches/drawings (or montages/schemes), of course with an emphasis on planting design/vegetation aspects. Every group member needs to contribute at least one drawing representing his/her individual ideas.

Design Synthesis

Please analyse the individual approaches presented so far and evaluate their strengths and weaknesses (you may use the SWOTanalysis model). Try to create a synthesis and represent it with a plan and some sketches. You can still use drawings/sketches.

Summary of the collaborative process

Please reflect on your collaborative design process. Which potentials have you encountered? What was most difficult? What does collaborative design mean for you? (approx 150 words).

Image Gallery

You may add a series of images/photos in addition to the sketches/drawings
