After experimenting with metal wires, I found that I could combine multiple with one another to create a very complex shape through their intersections. In this model, the wiring is thin which I believe makes thedesign easier to implement

The wiring could easily be used as a climbing frame or a potential pavilion place. It is a very simple design and therefore could beplaced around thepark

This wire model was inspired by the shape given off by a mountainous landscape. ark. I could potentially add the amount of wires in the design to make a more dynamic shape.

Adding duct tape to the model has broadened my ideas for playground equipment / seating spaces. The sketches shown on this page would work well as a slide shape. This would stray away from commercial playground slides and could serve as a key area for the playground space. Itwould also have been inspired by nature therefore linking my park redevelopmen t to my ongoing theme of nature. I must further develop these ideas to make a more efficient and effective slide design.

These sketches show a more organised set of wirings. I quite like the sketch far below with the pillars attached to the original wiring. This created an interesting form which could serve as its own part of the entirepark.

To improve on the wire mesh model, I added duct tapearound thewires which helped thicken their shapeand outline. Their thicker shape helped me develop designs in more interesting ways. This version of the model also gives off a more natural feel due to the duct tape texture being like that of a tree branch, linking with my theme of nature.
