Description

This project involved the demolition of the old municipal exhibition center and the construction in its place of a new modern expo center and park. In order to blend in with the green parks which surround it, a vast underground space with green rooftops was designed which opens onto large English courtyards. The proposed new park is a visual continuation of neighboring Thays Park and features a network of hills and connecting trails with rest areas and scenic overlooks. In this manner the new expo center "disappears" into the surrounding greenery like one of many parks having only minimal, strategically placed structural protrusions.
