Eleuthera’s fun park is a place I designed in Eleuthera, Bahamas. It’s the idea of producing a design that will not negatively impact the enviroment nor the economy but instead improves a community in it’s entirety. This is a place where the students and tourist of CTI will have a place to enjoy culture, art, and recreational activities. This place is also used as a place to host events, bringing these three concepts together.

Using the community feedback, I incorporated some fun things on the site to make the community better using the three design strategies of eco, resilient, and growing.

Some of the ideas the people of CTI came up with were an ampitheature, park with exercise, outdoor seating, and a farmers market. They also suggested keeping the pavilion and the pool and having sports courts.
