The survey conducted revealed some very interesting yet unsurprising results:
 
#  "Nature" and "open green space" were the two most popular qualities of an "ideal" park.
 
#  "Art" and "calm" were the next desires.
 
#  Students, as a whole, said they visit parks for "leisure and relaxation."
 
 
 
Our '''interpretation''' of these results is:
 
#  The site is already natural, yet it also has adequate open green space.  Therefore, the site, as it stands, is enough to satisfy a large number of students.  Furthermore, the likelihood of this park being visited as opposed to the [much larger and more "natural"] Delftse Hout is small. This leads to our [[Atom11:21.09.11|Intervention Proposal]], which will answer results number two and three.

If the park already meets the desires of students, how do we encourage them to use it?
 
Currently, few people at all use the site.  We are operating under the logical assumption that, in the future, more students will use the park.
 
The question then becomes: "how do we maintain the [[Atom11:intimacy|'''intimacy''']] of the site while accommodating an increased user load?."
 
 
The simple answer to that question is: [[Atom11:21.09.11|"we don't." ]]

Mission Statement


To magnify the intimacy of the De Vries van Heytsplantsoen site.

Motivation


Our first impression of the site is that it has moments or glimpses of spaces where intimacy is encouraged. The genesis of our research was to pinpoint the exact qualities that contribute to the phenomenon of intimacy discovered on the site. This question then blossomed into a cataloging of intimate affordances that create this intimacy.

Specialization


These affordances - or qualities - of intimacy that contribute to the phenomenon were documented and organized to give an idea of how many different "actors" work together to produce a certain experience. The desired outcome of this research is to "tag" all affordances of intimacy and parametize them in a manner that facilitates the testing and experimentation of our hypotheses.

Client(s)


Due to the universality of intimacy and its relation to the human condition, all humans are potential beneficiaries of our research. Specific to the context, however, beneficiaries are students and residents of Delft.
