Duden & Jupiter Park in Forest

Momentary association

Programme: Before proposing a vision, a program or a sketch, it seems important to us to begin by defining the identity, the use and the target public of each of the three parks and each of their sub-zones; but also to take into account more broadly the offer of the proposed sector in terms of infrastructures, leisure, sports, cultural and green spaces. The quality of this ensemble is that it offers a wide variety of uses and landscapes and therefore satisfies a very broad public.

About: This complementarity must be reinforced and not cancelled out by trying to do a little of everything everywhere. Forest Park, outside of the mission, seems to us to have to keep its current identity which mixes games with walks in a configuration very much in line with its immediate environment. Duden Park must also preserve what makes it attractive today. Nevertheless, it is possible to reinforce some of its assets and to develop activities and uses that are in line with its identity but that would not hinder its current uses and its heritage role. Finally, the blurring of the current use and identity of Jupiter Park gives us the opportunity to develop a new identity for it, while respecting its past. It could become a neighborhood hub, a landmark, a place of gathering and dynamic activities directly linked to a dense and attractive neighborhood.
