University of Pennsylvania | Summer 2023 | Instructor: Patrick Danahy
This PARK(ing) Day project in Philadelphia is a creative blend of deconstructivist architecture with a focus on the sustainable use of steel and concrete. It transforms a regular parking space into an environmentally friendly public park. The design is not just about looks; it's about promoting sustainable urban living. By innovatively using common building materials, it shows how urban spaces can be used more effectively. This project is more than just a park; it's a push towards imagining new possibilities for city landscapes, making them more livable, engaging, and green, and contributing to the conversation on urban sustainability and community-focused city planning.\_
