Hyper-Active Park
What architectural methods have to be applied to encourage people to be more active?
Maybe it can be tackled by reinventing a park like scenario, by transforming it into a built public forum for celebrating sports and physical activity.
Located in former railway yard of Porta Romana the Hyper Park is proposed to become a huge playground for the citizens of Milan. It is like a fun-park where every visitor despite their age, sex and fitness level can find challenging and exciting spaces for sports. The park is a collection of misshaped static or kinetic venues connected by a multilayered path system. These elements form a complex urban heart which generates new sport-based social encounters, catalyses people to be more inventive and reactive to the architectural spaces and evetually investigate a more physically active society.
