For
the site bordering the prefabricated housing development of Hohenschönhausen
to the north, we suggest a new type of park which combines public urban
park and agrarian landscape, thus forming an extensive park landscape
which changes and pulsates over time. The basic structure of the park
is an large intarsia-like form whose individual fingers are woven into
the field structure. Attractions are located at the ends of the fingers
which link the park with the landscape. The farm landscape becomes an
important part of the park experience.
The permanent park areas, some of which have hard borders of vegetation
(hedges and rows of trees), each contain their own specific types of vegetation
and small structures of use, and stand out clearly against the large-surface
field structures. The park can expand into the fields at their soft edges.
Isolated interventions and transportable landscape furniture make the
agrarian areas useful to the public for activities like labyrinths, horse
pastures, dog meadows, camping, raves, mobile peopleÕs golf, etc. The
park pulsates and changes over time. The shifting blooming zones of "vegetative
fusesÓ give the concept a creative parallel.
