TECHNOLOGY PARK Landscape Architecture Technology Park
Twenty years ago, much of a child’s recreation time was spent outdoors at a local park or playground. Now, more than ever, it seems like most of our youth are glued to the television or computer screen. Technology has expanded to capture the attention of youth with a great range of interests, but often lacks the social aspect of outdoor and/or community recreation .Challenge: Design a new type of outdoor playground. Using an existing public space and the technology of today, create a technology park accessible to a variety of users. You are designing a public space, so keep in mind the range of ages and abilities of potential users. Also consider the challenge of creating technologically savvy activities in an outdoor environment that will be exposed to weather conditions, a high number of users, security risks, and that will also have long-term sustainability.
For Tuesday Present your ideas on 1 piece of paper (board) 11" x 17". You may use images, words, photos, drawings. Technology Park Evaluation: Names: ______________________________________________
