CMG’s project was inspired by a city permitting process that allows dumpsters to temporarily occupy a parking spot.
Intended for construction debris bins, the Yerba Buena Parkmobiles are large sturdy boxes that can be easily towed away and moved to a new location. Project creators envisioned Parkmobiles as a challenge to the idea that the densely built-up downtown area has no room for gardens. The mobile gardens will also contribute to making the streetscape more spontaneous - bright green vegetation peeking out from the sturdy red containers could have a renewing effect on a deserted alleyway or barren concrete corner.
Awesome Modular Public Lounge Takes Over Vancouver's Parking Spaces. The goal of VIVA Vancouver is to transform street spaces where cars normally go, into people places to give residents more room to walk, bike, dance, skate, sit, hang out with friends and neighbors. So far, the program has developed 8 projects around the city, which includes pedestrian street only days, a theater, mobile digital projections and parking space park conversions. Parallel Park is the latest urban transformation project and was opened to the public on September 1st. Parallel Park was designed by Travis Martin, who works for van der Zalm + Associates, a local landscape architecture firm, in cooperation with master builder Tyler Harris of Happy Valley Woodwork.
Custom designed and prefabricated offsite, the modular deck provides “no purchase necessary” seating to the passersby. Acting more like a public lounge than a park, the deck area sits at sidewalk level and expands the public space into the street so those passing can sit down and take a load off. . + Parallel Park.
Telok Blangah Hill Park’s Flying Bridges Soar Through the Sky Telok Blangah Hill Park – Inhabitat - Green Design Will Save the World. South Pointe Park is a Sweeping, Ecologically Sensitive Park in South Beach. South Pointe Park is an urban green space and has a number of assets as its disposal, particularly the park’s expansive views out onto the Atlantic and across Government Cut. It sits next to a lively neighborhood and has access to both the bay and the ocean and is right next to the cruise ship passage – all big attractions for residents living in the area to come and enjoy.
Hargreaves Associates’ design for the park revitalized the area making it a fun, attractive and desirable destination. Two major paths bisect the park: the Serpentine Walk and the Cut Walk, providing views and encouraging activity. The paths are built with durable and low maintenance Dominican Keystone, a stone of fossilized coral, which creates a physical connection with the adjacent sea. The park also includes a centrally located restaurant and lounge area along with an outdoor amphitheater and specially designed lighting along the Cut Walk. + Hargreaves Associates Images courtesy of Hargreaves Associates.
Surface Deep: Honeycomb Moss Sculpture Swells Across Quebec's Reford Garden. The structure greets visitors on first arrival with an impressive take on a traditional wall that would otherwise be an overlooked necessity. The temporary entrance simultaneously acts as both a resting space and a point of guidance that brings visitors towards the grounds. The piece’s title reflects the importance placed on the unit, a strong space to act as an interactive site for people to walk on and around, while also containing plants embedded in its structure. The varied angles of the design frame a seating area, while open webbing is the perfect base for the different mosses planted inside the honeycomb-esque panels.
An interactive design, Surface Deep was created in collaboration with students from Harvard’s Graduate School of Design. + asensio_mah Via Designboom Images courtesy of asensio_mah. Bruce Munro’s Brilliant Fiber Optic Fields of Light. Bruce Munro's gorgeous fiber optic 'Field of Light' installation is inspired by the beautiful displays of flowers that burst forth from Australia's desert landscape. The UK-based lighting designer conceived of the installation years ago while driving across Stuart Highway on a road trip through Australia. Every night he would stop to rest at roadside campsite, where green grass and surreal sculptures struck a stark contrast to the surrounding red desert. Munro was fascinated by these oases, and how dormant desert seeds would burst into beautiful flowers when it rained.
The idea stuck with Munro for years until he finally brought it to life in a brilliant installation at the Eden Project in Cornwall. Bruce Munro is a lighting designer with considerable experience in commercial, private and public installations. The Eden Project is a well-known education center that encourages people to learn how to look after nature in a time of radical change.

Mexico’s Subterranean Children’s Museum is an Immersive Educational Environment Interactive Childrens Museum by Iñaki Echeverría – Inhabitat - Green Design Will Save the World. Standing at the site of an old steel mill, the reclaimed buildings will host new administration, storage, exhibit development, and an eatery in the old brick buildings. Standing at the site of an old steel mill, the reclaimed buildings will host administration, storage, exhibit development, and an eatery in the old brick buildings. Adjacent to the original buildings rests the submerged museum, an immersed educational resource that director Marinela Servitje explains is for “children and their families interested in nature, natural resources, flora, fauna, water, wind, earth, energy.” The design, which literally becomes part of the landscapes helps provide a connection with the exhibits and the environment in addition to preserving the existing viewscape. The museum is separated into three main sections; an exhibit hall, IMAX Theater and a vertical garden.
