Beyond Inclusive Design: Creating a Welcoming, Accessible, Nature-Based ParkPublic parks define our neighborhoods and shape our communities, yet too few are holistically designed to be inclusive and even fewer in a nature-based setting. The Eli's Park Project founders in partnership with Site Workshop, will share their roles in designing a welcoming, accessible and nature-based park for all at Burke-Gilman Playground Park in Seattle. Join us for an interactive discussion about engaging community in an inclusive design process to create outdoor spaces for everyone. SpeakersClayton Beaudoin, PLA ASLA (he/him) is a Principal at Site Workshop and has spent the bulk of his 15 years of professional practice engaging communities in the creation of place. While this priority on community-driven design has resulted in a wonderful portfolio of built work, he is equally appreciative of how the design process itself has contributed to stronger communities and many new friends. Clayton also strives to design with the local ecology in mind, working hard to make his projects more sustainable, meaningful and always more playful. Register Today |
