Some of the students have asked where to locate information about the Cloud Arbor sculpture piece to be included in your designs. A written description, drawings (plan and elevation) and images of the artist's conceptual design, as well as a YouTube video of a mock-up of how the Cloud Arbor will work are located on the competition website's information page (the above link, just below the YouTube video on this page). A plan and elevation of the piece is also located on the left side of the site drawing, inside the CAD drawing file, for your reference and use. The Cloud Arbor needs to be inserted into the site (to scale), anywhere you choose, to best accent your design. Keep in mind the sculpture piece is interactive, with the spacing of the poles large enough for people to walk through the piece, to experience the mist that creates the cloud coming out of the poles. So, consider how best the sculpture can be utilized by people using the park, walking through, or children playing.
