Pin-up notes

In each one- blank space between the pier and the street.
Do you have enough program for the site?
Is it a retreat center or a daily thing?
accept that park and icorporate it into your site model
Where are your most private spaces?
perhaps farthest away fromt he city
A retreat center could incorporate more program - think monastery many people congregate at certain times but for the most part they re alone, in prayer.
May be objects in a park at a scale like this .
You can cut into the pier to reveal, capture interest in the reflective walls
separate bodies of the water .
If landscape and water are so far part maybe unpleasant
Create privacy that you're looking for like the way there are slippages- most successful
the kind of episodes, the hierachy of the pieces- strongest point
putting it on a pedestal- people looking out and people looking in
Meditation- Walking not only sitting
you could turn it into an interesting part of the meditation ritual
Occupy hte end of the pier
DO you bring cars here?
How long do the people have to walk to get to the end?
