Observations and design of public place and paths in a New England town.
Public place and paths in a New England town
This is a plan - a hypothesis in which some ideas are developed for the building of a path and parks. Through the use of imagery texture, and materials a sense of the possible is evoked. This is also an exploration of designer as an advocate for the user and the used . The forgotten elements. The spaces between. The earth, the river, the senses .... The site is Brattleboro, Vermont. There is a physical opportunity in Brattleboro to turn the town around. The backs of the old warehouses, the railroad, and the grade change to the Connecticut River are all resources. The possibility for living spaces and markets and recreation is created by the development of a pathway and series of small incursions into the built landscape of the area.
