The model followed the general instructions for creating this park space. I used Dynamo to create a parametric sine wave across a 200x200’ park using cube elements with different adjustable sliders to modify the parameters. I wanted to balance accentuating the sine wave shape as much as possible without making the cubes too small and settled on a cube step size of 6. I set the attractor point at 50,50 instead of the center to give the composition of the park some asymmetry and feel a bit more natural. A sine wave formula was used to change the cubes height, number of waves, and amplitude as a function of distance from the attractor point. I kept the waves to a low value of 2 and made the amplitude fairly close to the height to really show the wave, but not to overdo it and still make it an inviting space. My goal was to create the park using this sine wave function and cuboids, but to still make it inviting and accommodating to the average person without feeling too unnatural.
