Concepts
The concepts from the two separate sketches that now have been molded into one are 'pushing the brief' and 'growing materials' which have been generated from works by the designer Neri Oximan and Cedric Price. These concepts will be further developed later as I plan to 'push the brief' by spreading my marker down the side of the highway, rather than having one set spot and using growing plants as the material. The two separate works appear as if they support each other even though their concepts are different.

 WEEK 3
36 custom textures - light to dark


FINAL PRODUCT
Growing Material - Neri Oximan
Growing Material - Neri Oximan
Pushing the Brief - Cedric Price (demonstrating where the markers sit on the highway) 
Growing Materials - Neri Oximan
Scale  
Concept
My concept was a combination of growing materials and pushing the brief. I used materials that would grow over time such as moss and flowers and I also split my marker into two sections and placed them on two separate locations on the highway. The marker next to the water tank will catch the water and it will run into the water tank which could be used for showers or watering the grounds. The marker near the phone tower was created to hide the tower. 
These markers are unique and noticeable and will clearly mark Black town International Sports Park.
