4 Day exhibition depicting concepts that may emerge in future park designs. Exhibition divided into 4 areas reflecting various user groups namely toddlers, youth, adults and senior citizens. The message that we would like to convey is that parks play an important role in the life of communities irrespective of the age of the individual. The benefits of having parks and the possibilities it presents for adding to the quality of life of communities will be shared and communicated over the 4 days. Furthermore, the futuristic take in terms of the design and layout highlights the importance of having to produce park designs that respond to the changing urban environment and the changing needs of urban communities. The exhibition has been designed and constructed by the staff of the City of Cape Town Parks Department and has been supported by various partners such as the MTN Science Centre.
