PARK PARK is a room of parked curiosities designed to provoke a non-prescriptive rethink of the ubiquitous neighbourhood parking lot and other single use territories in our cities. We are all too familiar with the barren landscape formed by surface parking lots; they exist all across the country. In contrast, PARK PARK is designed as a layer cake of uses. PARK PARK is a place of curiosities made from parks. This is a parking park, a sitting park, a playing park, a gathering park, a riding park, a park kind of a park.
