Skills Presentation...







This is just a small taster of my group presentation for Skills, i was pretty worried about this presentation as well, because it was due to be infront of some of the Architecture students not just Landscape..However i feel that even thought we missed one group member through illness we did a good job!

Kew Gardens visit!!!!

It was pretty cold when we visited Key Gardens, i didn't like that aspect of things! However i enjoyed the area itself a lot, and even though i live so close to it i had never been. It was a very good experience for me as i observed a lot when i was there and learnt of a lot of different plants! The different parts that they were trying to restore to their natural state was also interesting for me. I found it aesthetically pleasing and wouldn't mind going back.

So what did i come up with...

Unfortunately i do not have any pictures of my design, my camera has decided to act stupid! But ill try my best to describe it to you..I felt i needed to design a square that fulfilled several things, a place for people to walk without disruption or hassle, an area that people can embrace on their breaks and any other time really, and to have an area that was a nice sight! I feel i fulfilled my brief..I used the 5 sense aspect to make 5 capsules that are based around each sense! The textures, smells...set each one apart. Together with this there was an elevated area that let people walk around the square without being disturbed or annoyed!
