I have taken a visualisation I created during my first year and have redone them in order to create a more realistic visualisation. I really like how the people seamlessly integrate within the site.
For St Aidans our brief has been to research the Seven Sacred Spaces. Each space has a different meaning, we need to make a garden based around these 7 spaces. After researching different bible verses there was one which really stood out to me about lilies which effectively said if god can take care of lilies he will take care of you. Therefore I believe within the st aidens design the base of it will be a lily as they have 6-7 petals.
For Alney Island I have created some spatial zoning diagrams. This one shows the areas which will be active (green), semi active (orange) and passive (blue). This will give me a good idea about where to place different structures. I then created a zoning diagram for the different objectives and which area will be for what element. This is only a rough estimate and will not be the exact areas that I will cover.
Tredegar House is owned by the National Trust has a sensory trail which goes across it’s lands and highlights the different senses to the users. This trail is perfect for people with visual impairments as it focuses on more senses rather than just sight, which is often the focus of gardens especially traditional ones. Throughout the site there are braille signs, however these could be difficult to find for visually impaired people, in order to combat this the National Trust has created a digital map of the land . To aid with creating sensory trails the sensory trust has created a guide to aid designers. The guide that a sensory trail are primarily aimed at people with disabilities, however they don’t have to be exclusively used by disabled people. Sensory trails can be used to “give people the opportunity to listen, touch, smell and look more closely” than they may otherwise.
