Venice Dispersal Park

Type

Landscape + Planning › Public Park

Situated in between Venice Canal and Venice Beach, the site holds great potentials as a communal space, as well as a connection between the canal and the beach. Currently it serves as a parking lot to accommodate beach visitors; hence it is highly contaminated by the chemical substances from the asphalt and the vehicles. Venice Dispersal Parks aims to address these problems.
To connect the beach and the canal, the project adapts an organic flowing surface that refers to the urban grids. Pedestrians can easily enters the park from every direction. Visitors from the canal can also ride their boats to access the park. To create a dynamic urban experience, this park has a total of six gathering areas - three of them are right facing the street, and another three are blended in between the greenery and the canal water.
The selection of the vegetation was based on the plants’ natural regeneration process. Four types of plants on the project use the help of natural forces - wind (anemochory) and water (hydrochory) to disperse their seeds. Because of this feature, the project will create unpredicted pattern, not only inside the park, but also on the surrounding area.
