URBAN PARK

General Description

This urban park project emerges as an integral response to contemporary public space needs, understanding the city as an environment that requires living, safe and multifunctional areas. The proposal seeks to offer a place where the community can coexist, play, practice sports, reflect and reconnect with nature amid the urban context. The park is conceived as a new civic and social nucleus, accessible, inclusive and dynamic.

Concept and Distribution

The design is organized from a radial walkway scheme connecting different thematic nuclei. Each node fulfills a specific function, allowing a clear reading of the space and a fluid and continuous journey experience. This system facilitates visual integration between the different areas and favors orientation, universal accessibility and coexistence among users of all ages.

Main Zones

  • Children's play area: Equipped with thematic play furniture and rubber surfaces, designed for safe play and motor development.
  • Open-air forum: Cultural space with bleachers and circular stage, destined for community activities, events and artistic expressions.
  • Central plaza: Articulated by a sculptural fountain and monumental sculptures acting as visual landmarks and meeting points.
  • Skatepark: Specialized area with curved surfaces, landscape integration and shade zones for recreational and sports use.
  • Curved botanical garden: Soft paths among diverse vegetation, conceived for contemplation, rest and environmental education.

Materials and Finishes

The material selection responds to durability, low-maintenance and aesthetic coherence criteria with the urban environment:

  • Pigmented concrete, natural stone and grass areas
  • Rubber coatings in play zones
  • Organic benches in concrete and wood
  • Embedded LED lighting in paths and plazas, integrated discretely and functionally

Landscaping and Lighting

The landscape design combines native and ornamental vegetation to generate shade, microclimates and a sensory experience rich in textures and colors. Strategic planting contributes to sun exposure control, natural ventilation and thermal comfort. Nighttime lighting was conceived to highlight paths, plazas and sculptural elements functionally and poetically, encouraging safe park use throughout the day and reinforcing its symbolic character within the city.

Public Space with Identity

The central fountain, monuments and concrete and stone paths dialogue with each other, generating symmetries that organize the space without losing fluidity. The result is a park consolidated as the civic and cultural heart of its community: a living, inclusive space designed to be inhabited.
