Summary sheet
After the conclusion of design solution 1, which focused on site connection, land use, and massing, the next phase was to design the streetscape. The term "streetscape" refers to the
natural and built fabric of the street and is described as the design quality of the street and its aesthetic effect. Throughout the course of this project, we have made simultaneous use of
green space and water. Green space will provide a sense of security and comfort, and water will have a relaxing impact on people's thoughts while also providing insulation from the heat
during the summer months. To ensure that visitors could appreciate the site for its visual value, we made it more walkable throughout. The sidewalk is an essential component of the
streetscape since it contributes to the overall comfort, attractiveness, and sense of security of the area. We have built the sidewalk to include vegetation so that guests may stroll down it
comfortably and with a good sense of what they are walking through.
Design

Green space: The abundance of greenery throughout the site is aesthetically pleasing and ensures that guests have a great time. Between the gathering place and the administrative
building is a series of small islands like an oasis in the water bodies that visitors can walk through, giving off an inviting appeal to pedestrians coming from that direction; a similar oasis
can be found near the exhibition center, where those approaching in vehicles can also enjoy the view; both are sure to be equally well received. and there is grassland between the
vehicular path and the pedestrian path, creating beauty and a transition between the two areas, as well as dividing the noise spot and the administrative building, giving an inviting appeal
to the pedestrians coming from that area. and there is another oasis near the exhibition center where people using vehicular access can also enjoy the view, and it will be inviting for those
arriving in cars. In addition, there is grassland between the car path and the foot path, which not only serves as a visual break but also as a sound barrier by separating the two traffic
types. and parks contribute to the too scenic quality of streetscapes., and there is centrally positioned in the midst of the body of water, this circular floatation garden is a sight to behold.
Moreover, visitors can enjoy a wide variety of aquatic plants at their own pace by walking right into this flotation garden. Furthermore, the structure's framework is made of brick and
metal and wooden paving used for walkway. Adding green can also serve as a storm water collection pit, collecting all runoff water and filtering it back into the groundwater zone.

Gathering spots: The commercial space is the first significant meeting point on this site, followed by gathering space on the front and back areas in front of the tall building. These
spaces will serve as a gathering place for people while also creating a feeling of identity in the space. The gathering place is designed as a pedestrian entrance, therefore the Walkway is
created with wooden paving and wooden rectangular arches, giving the space continuity and acting as a pathfinder. The second gathering place is a recreational area in front of a tall
building that people can utilise for various festivals and ceremonies. Another alternative is to install permeable pavement, which will allow water to infiltrate in this gap. For safety and
security, we chose concrete flooring with hand railing in commercial spaces.

Street furniture and fixtures: Street furniture’s utilized in the site include wooden benches and wooden seating spaces to merge with surrounding green space to integrate with nature.
The materials used in the construction of the site as a whole include bricks, stones, steel, concrete,
and wood. placing waste receptacles anywhere there is room for them rather than in locations where people are likely to make use of them is an unacceptable practice. in order for us to
maintain the place's cleanliness and tidiness. Lateran post lights are typically found in outdoor settings and are used to illuminate and decorate streets and roads.

Conclusion: As a conclusion, we aimed to incorporate a sustainable streetscaping, which takes into account the numerous factors that make up everyday street life (such as readability,
security, adaptability, economy, etc.). Any streetscaping idea that meets all of the criteria will make the area more appealing as a site to live, work, and play.
