02 BARRIER-FREE GREEN HUB
"Barrier-free" public spaces
ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) facilities are crucial to equitable landscape architecture. Landscape architects must incorporate ADAcompliant elements such as ramps, pathways, seating, and signage into their designs to ensure equitable access for individuals with disabilities. It emphasizes the importance to creating inclusive outdoor spaces, promoting independence, and enriching the overall user experience to enhance the functionality and usability of landscapes.

03 COMMUNITY HEALING "CENTER" Age-friendly park
An age-friendly park is essential due to increasing the aging population and the increasing need for senior care and well-being. The park offers a safe and accessible environment for seniors to engage in physical activities, socialize, and improve their physical and mental health. It also promotes active aging, reducing the risk of chronic diseases and loneliness. Additionally, the park provides an opportunity for intergenerational interaction, fostering a sense of community and support.
