Lindsay Hall Conceal + Reveal Landscape Design LA S D N P A C PROPOSED ENERGY CENTRE WITH ASSOCIATED CAR PARKING AND LANDSCAPING A Landscape with Elements to Experience & Discover E AREA TO BE RESURFACED TO MAXIMISE PEDESTRIAN PRIORITY AND SURROUNDING LANDSCAPE TO BE REPLANTED. In designed parks and gardens, one’s experience of the landscape was often shaped by concealing views across the landscape or of landscape features. These are then revealed as one moves through the landscape. Views - the development has been laid out to preserve, strengthen and frame views both north to south towards the wider countryside as well as east to west between proposed courtyard spaces. Views east to west are via broad cut throughs under the central building. PROPOSED NEW WHEELCHAIR ACCESSIBLE LINK LEADING NORTH TOWARDS THE HEART OF THE CAMPUS Opportunities to include features that change in appearance depending upon where they are viewed from will be used as demonstrated below. B View PROPOSED PAVED PARKING COURTYARD TO THE SOUTH OF LINDSAY COURT PROPOSED LANDSCAPED COURTYARD SPLIT OVER TWO LEVELS, TO INCLUDE CYCLE STORE AND ART FEATURE CONCEALED WITHIN THE LANDSCAPE B View west into courtyard View south past courtyard The landscape has been designed to maximise usable space across what is a steeply sloping site. A series of courtyards between buildings will provide mown amenity lawns and seating spaces framed and defined by new planting. Each of these spaces will include an element of discovery i.e features that are ‘revealed’ to the viewer only when one enters the space. Planting seeks to reflect the site’s transitional nature between the campus and wider countryside. As such, planting will become more native and informal in its appearance as one moves towards the site’s boundaries.
