We have worked diligently in making this design unique and specific to our artist’s wants and needs.

In the beginning of this project we started of by coming up with ideas. We-knew-our— perk-was going to be located on a hill, so we needed to think of a creative way to thersteep-slape. We originally had the idea of making 3 floors on the hill so we'd had a flat platform to walk on, But after finishing our design we realized it was an unrealistic idea to make 3 different floors because of mulkiple reasons. One reason was because the space between the platforms was around 9 feet which ‘would be too lle space in between for people to be on the the floors. Another reason is because a park is supposed to have that outdoor feel and having three platforms would make it feel enclosed and tight. The third reason is because it would cost a great amount of money to make the design. After a lot of feedback we decided to make our park one floor. overall ur purpose for the Community Space is to create a space that is relaxing, inspirational, and just nice place where the community of artists can come together like the community they will be, Hopefully this willbe a space where the artist willbe able to unwind and get their minds off of any stress they may be dealing wth test and ota WC er" aN ; ur plan to fund this project to reach aur $50,000 goal is to haye a fundraiser on Janvary 21, ori ing tickets for gamain event’ There wilalse be ratiies, Sein Sutione: SAT off entertainment.
