Park landscape shelters

Locate park canopies around places where visitors naturally stop. Path junctions, rest points and activity areas have different needs; establish which users the facility serves.

Connect the canopy with other park facilities

Consider seating, drinking-water points, wayfinding and existing tree shade together. Add coverage where it serves an actual need, while retaining circulation and planting-maintenance space.

  • Which rest facilities already exist nearby?
  • Will the shelter mainly serve walkers or activity groups?
