CONCEPT
Seagrasses, corals, and mangroves are the homes of tiny marine creatures, and one cannot be without the others. However, mangroves are slowing lessening in number because people want to cut them down. Thus resulting to the seagrass and corals dying from pollution, which could have been filtered naturally by the mangroves.
Providing a comfortable place for the roles of these fishermen as part of the children’s journey in education, this park promotes keeping the mangrove trees alive by incorporating it as part of the very design. Quite literally, without the tree, the park wouldn’t survive! The very solution to this design is the way the trees serve as shelter just as it does for the marine creatures. This way, we lessen the amount of materials needed for construction and we also sustain marine life reproduction. This park not only bridges the gap between the children and their future. It also closes the loop of getting and giving back.
