Proposed
Landscape Scheme - Wolf Tone Park
This competition entry to
design a new landscaped park in an urban area of Dublin
aimed to combine local history, topography and materiality
create a unique and memorable space within the city. The
use of artificial contouring, changes in materials, screen
walls and a small waterfall were all devices used to create
two distinct and internalised spaces within the park. A
statue, mural wall, poetry inscribed paving slabs and
reused tombstone within the proposed new waterfall tell the
story of Wolf Tome and the Rebellion and link the newly
landscaped features seamlessly with the places past and its
use as a graveyard. The proposed new time piece, however,
reflected the desire that the park should become a place
for present and future generations to use and
enjoy.
