4. Connectivity The path creates a philosophical and physical connection between the Mosque and Mezari. The path weaves around program and stitches the entire site together to bridge an uninterrupted experience. It acts as a representation of life’ s journey and its two core elements-- God and Death. The Park is also designed to minimize the interaction between people and vehicles. An access road runs opposite of the pedestrian pathway to ensure safety during various parts of the day.
6. Reinforce The vegetation on the site plays a strategic role in managing the water run-off from impermeable surfaces and other topographic areas. The plants also reinforce the grid system on the site, primarily around the adult soccer fields. The trees also provide layers of protection from ball-based recreational use such as the soccer fields and volleyball courts. The trees create a green-wall, which will help to prevent non-participants from being hit. The vegetation plays another important role in sound management. The trees act as buffer zones to help contain the noise from each recreational area.
