Yggdrasil Master Plan

This project was based around finding a use for design, I researched the impact of stress after taking a Philosophy class that explored Happiness as a topic. I found that the physical impact of stress and the environmental causes for it are rampant in urban areas. I then chose Charlotte, NC, for my proposal because of its opportunity to also reconnect damage caused by its roadways.

Research showed the negative impact of places devoid of green space and how they generate stress which has been proven to have dramatic negative health impacts.

Starting with Root Park, this master plan addresses how the city has been separated from the surrounding area via major roadways through the four parks on each ordinal direction.

Root Park circulates through different activity spaces that can be adapted over time focusing on serving as a free activity space for the city to alleviate the Urban Pressure.

 A program I found most inspiring was that a meditation garden which acted as a leisure space. A space that acted as an escape from the city in the city.
