Walls focus views; begin the

experience

Shading structure

perforates the view of the sky

Entry Perspective

Wall and shading structure form experience.

For future expansions artist are given lots where they are told to frame the sky in a creative way.

Walls inserted into the

landscape are less intrusive

Follies where the sky is framed are sunk into the ground to preserve the view and landscape.

In a time of war the only thing that remains unscarred is the sky. During battles where landscapes were torn the only thing untouched was the sky. During a time where nowhere seemed like home, soldiers connected to their loved ones through the sky. Using a path with multiple reflective points where the view of the sky is framed, Guardian Park recreates awareness and appreciation of the desert skies above. The path leads to the highest point of the site where the boulder city valley reveals itself, showing occupants a view many veterans fought for but never personally experienced.
