TEAM : TIM COUNSIN, SHAWN LAW AND CUI FINGYUN
PROJECT : A proposed project is to change a land devastated by a landslide to a community space. We decided to create a path that connects people and Nature together. A starting point of the path is a pier which is the first place of the visitor when they come to Oshima island and The end of this path is Mihara mountain. This path will lead a visitor to the nature of this island by go through the area that was devastated by a landslide too. Many functions of building such as Art gallery, A small pavilion for taking a rest, nursery, library, and adventure center will be built along the path. A visitor can see a natural scene of local nature and also see the local activity of local people life. An objective of this area is to attract local peoples and visitor to come to learn, talk, and do an activity on the island.
