Rationale: Why is this case interesting?
Please give a short introduction to the site you have selected (not more than 150 words)
- Why did you select it?
- Is it exemplary for a specific theme or a problem?
- In how far does it relate to your live?
Author's perspective
From which professional background/perspective are your documenting this case?
Landscape and/or urban context of your case
- Biogeography, cultural features, overall character, history and dynamics
- Illustration: Map; sketches; short descriptive analyses
Analytical drawings
- Please add four analytical sketches/drawings (or montages/schemes) of your case and take the following aspects into account:
- natural dynamic versus cultural framework - in how far do these two areas come together in your case?
- dynamic through the year (you may imagine how the site may look in spring and summer, maybe you also remember it)
- highlight potentials and problems

Exercise 3: Behaviour Patterns
Time frame: December 6 - 20, 2011
Bogota has a main ecological structure that connects the different parks in the metropolitan scale and empower connections in local parks, replicating the features of the first to increase its use.
The park is located in a residential area of the city. Because of this, is frequented by older people coming out to exercise in the morning. The north side courts are used by local schools and parks and recreation areas for children to lunch.
On weekends, families spend their free time in the play areas for children

Exercise 4: Communication Concepts
Time frame: December 19, 2011 - January 17, 2012
- Communication concept for the area of study
Since the park has regular use during the week, one of the topics would be integrate the park into the neighborhood, That all residents know it, and it always be a reference point for the community.
The proposed park's communication concept is based on having a "green meter" in the light poles around the park, the level goes up as people approach the place.
Distance markings are made on the posts and then filled with paint or climbing plants till the correct level, the poles around the park bears the motto: "Experience nature!"
Communication concept
Plan
- Which measures would be necessary for enhancing the awareness for the area?
The proposal addresses the integration of the neighborhood park and the city with four key points:
1. Access and transition zone 2. jogging track around the park 2. Equipment with multiple use areas (temporary exhibitions, concerts) 3. Bicycle parking area, drinking fountains for people and pets and other facilities for walkers
The equipment has the primary function being the engine of the community where they can do workshops, intercollegiate games taking advantage of existing fields and different tournaments between the boards of community action in the sector. It is also possible to have different cafes and small shops for rent and encourage different uses from sports.
