Green analysis: Radius 700m, including 7000 citizen, the attractivest parks are far away from project area, thus the heckenstaller park is suitable to be placed here.

A statistical analysis for 60 minutes at noon. Evaluation: high density of childernand teenagers because there are schools on the north-west side. On average of every minute one cyclist through the Heckenstaller park. more than one car every minute on the street on the south residence area went directliy into the underground garage.

The Alps Museum and Library of German Alps Association is located on the Praterinsel island near the German Museum in the river Isar. The all teams were supposed to improve the current situation of the museum garden. The photos show the surrounding shore promenade, the museum house and installations in the garden. The design of every group were related to one of several architecture intervention from architect students’ design, our group took the pedestal a cement part surrounds the museum house.

_ idea The new architecture intervention pedestal put the museum house out of its garden, linking the museum with the original public area together.
The basic idea is to develop more connection with the river Isar, to make it more public and accessible to the citizen.
The fences wiil be reatained as protection to installations in garden and shore promenade is another developing point.

Protection
4 pictograms to our concept. According to a program of Munich, we thought the garden should be related to river Isar to make the river Isar more accessible by various function, such as a better relaxation place for citizen. The alps character is one point that we want to emphasize. The geometrical elements in our project are based on a complex grid, we located front the pedestal many stripes to show the extending of lawn area, creating a special design form. Meanwhile, the fences should be retained in the consideration of vandalism. 30

_ protection
To protect the exhibits, installations and to retain the character of resting place, fences is a necessary element. We chose the Corten steel surrounding museum garden. They will be orientated in 90 degree to east facade museums, so producing different possibilities to look through.
