Playground Design Group report
25/05/09 16:23
The playground design meeting last Saturday
produced some great ideas towards developing a
whole of village playspace design to be presented
to villagers soon.
During the meeting Justin led a workshop with the kids and parents, and together they built a temporary humpy (see photos ATTACHED) as an example of a natural playspace. The humpy will be reviewed in 3 months to decide if it is to be maintained or removed.
If you would like to know more about the playground progress, please contact me.

Interesting co-housing website

Muir Commons was the first purpose built
Cohousing in the USA. It was also McCamant &
Durrett's first Cohousing project. It was
designed through a process starting with ads in
the media in 2001, and built in 2002. Their big
solar array went up in 2003. There are 26 units
of clustered, attached housing facing across a
central path. There are good details & photos

Statistics are a very dry way to present
information. Art, on the other hand, is one of
the most powerful tools we have for linking a
message with emotional impact. Have a look at
this link sent in by Sue Wiseman. Art is cleverly
used to portray statistics as a very scary
message!
