Footpath PavementsDemonstrative Case

Riverside recreational space and footpath, Yunlin, Taiwan.

The recreational space near the riverside was filled with weeds. The residence nearby were not able to use that space during leisure time. Considering both the needs of the residence and the environmental factors, precast concrete blocks were used to build the footpath pavements instead of the original concrete material. The space is filled with green vegetation and well used by the residence.
