The Sun Cone is running from the Hawker’s Market roof down through into the Administration Area. Sunlight is thus provided into this area. Reflective copper panels are welded surrounding the column system, reflecting sunlight into different directions. These copper panels intentionally create different shadow in the interior.
At night, lighting in the column system luminates, creating totally different atomsphere from daytime.

The principle of the treatment of sewage by Reed Beds is relatively simple. The Common Reed ( Phragmites Australis.) has the ability to transfer oxygen from its leaves, down through its stem, porous speta and rhizomes, and out via its root system into the rhizosphere ( root system.)As a result of this action, a very high population of micro-organisms occurs in the rhizosphere, with zones of aerobic, anoxic, and anaerobic conditions.
5. Water Supply
Sewage In
Clear Water Out
Therefore with the waste water moving very slowly and carefully through the mass of Reed roots, this liquid can be successfully treated, in a manner somewhat similar to conventional biological filter bed systems of sewage treatment. Earlier Reed Bed Sewage Treatment systems, used the horizontal flow type of reed bed, where the liquid flows horizontally through the bed.

Vege Storage One factor hesitating people to participate in park activity is storage. Imagine someone lives 10 min away from the park. For each time planting, he needs to carry tools and materials from home to park, which is exhausting. 005

In order to persuade people planting their own fruitages in the park, a storage area is set up. These storages are lent to participants to store their gardening tools, fertilizers, cultivated soil etc. Remaining storages are free to lend to residents living in that area.

Park Level - 300mm below the pedestrian level at the other end
Once a resident register, he is given a package of cultivated soil to plant any kinds of fruits/vegetables within the slot. A name tag is attached in the slot to notify people the slot is occupied. Fruits/vegetables grown are belonged to the participants.

Public Storage
Since there is a water storage in Australia, the vegetation project maybe constrained by the water supply. In order to provide sufficient water to the plant, a rain water storage system is developed at the barbecue area. The Roof of the barbecue area is made of polycarbonate sheeting. Rain water will flow along the roof to the water tank embedded in the landscape. Water is stored for plant irrigation. 1

Communal Shelter A communal shelter is built in the rejuvenation strip. There are 3 main purposes of the shelter : 1) provide seats and shading for those people who use the park as a fast track to the other side of the district. 2) encourage usage of the park by providing electric barbecue appliance for residents to come and gather at the park. 3) Provide a communal space for public event to take place

Biolytis Toilet ‘No toilets in the park. People have to walk 5-10 min back to their home if they need.’ said one park user. There is a demand of public toilet in the park. It is one of the barriers for park occupants to utilize the park. In the rejuvenation strip, 3 biolytis toilets are installed. The toilets are trying to solve the public issues as well as using the organic waste as liquid fertilizer for the vegetation
Solar Sun Panel System Solar energy is turned into electrical energy for the landscape an nd ground light in the park at night.
The process of converting human excrement into safe and usable compost material can take 3 months to a few years depending on climate, temperature, and the composting system. In 4 to 6 years there will be highly mineralized soil. Some composting-toilet models concomitantly turn urine into an odor-free, pathogen-free organic liquid fertilizer. Some countries, for example Sweden, allow this liquid to be used in agriculture after it is stored for 6 months. In full-size composting toilets, urine goes through a process called nitrification, resulting in an odor-free and practically bacteria-free liquid fertilizer.
