PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Looking back on earth from space, one can imagine the possibilities for life on this amazing globe. Our concept for “The Fields” demonstrates how POSSIBILITIES can transform future communities through the application of sustainable practices and creative design. Emerging environmental technologies increase the potential for us to live responsibly but cannot change the world on their own. The tide of marginality we have created in our communities can only be reversed by demonstrating how Amazing Places can be designed to inspire the human spirit. The Fields demonstrates how a public asset can be leveraged to fuel the building of a New American Dream. This dream to access, participate, and contribute to a place, has the power to transform the way we live. It has the ability to reverse our expectation of a future with a degrading human environment to a vision of vibrant, sustainable and richly textured urban experiences.
