Purpose
A nature water garden was design in the middle of the park with the aim of decreasing
the temperature of the area since ours city whether is hot. The pond was decorated
with some lilies and gold fish reared in the outdoor pond and middle pond with
fountain which overall is decorate while avoid mosquito. The trickling sound from

mood after a long and hot day.
The children’s playground is split up into several different sections that have a
different concept – the playground equipment section, the slide and playground
climbing nets section, the intellectual games and creativity section and the chill out
section. The park also provides adults gym facilities with instruction board. This
delimitation by section is meant to split the active and passive games, so that these
two will not interfere with each other, as well as to exclude any accidents that might
happen.
3. Layouts and Activities
In PSP Park, the key features are pond fountain which located in the middle of park
and surrounded by playgrounds. The pond is centred with a big solar power fountain
and a small manmade island .The small island planted with various types of flower
and covered by grass. The visitors can walk to the island through across the wooden
bridges or just sit down on the bridge and relax by watching the fishes and lilies.
besides, there are two types of playground for young children age between 3 to 6
which provides see-saw, spring rider and playground and children age 6 above
providing marry-go-round, monkey bar and slide. Both playgrounds have a common
feature where they provide pergolas and benches for parents to sit on while their
children are playing.
Next, Skate Park was provided and specific divided into 7 levels from easy to

4. Concept
Malaysia has various races and religions live together. Therefore, we come out an
idea which is having a public garden in residential area to decrease and avoid
stereotype, prejudice and discrimination among each other. It provides an escape for
city with green and complete facilities. They can enjoy and communicate peacefully
in this fun and natural garden.
In this public space, we can observe the people are enjoying the same traits which is
loving garden and park. First, the people will observe and slowly started with a short
greeting between them. When time passed, they will talk deeper and understanding
each other by making friend. In the ends, they will form a group by sharing same
traits such as a group of mother will enjoy their talking on how to take care about
their children. In this ways, we can see the increase contact between the people was
decrease prejudice in races and culture.
The garden and park will have a playground for children to enjoy their time. We was
prepare a complete facilities such as seesaw, merry-go-round, swingset, slide, jungle
gym, chin-up bars, spring rider, skateboard, monkey bars and overhead ladder to help
children develop physical coordination, strength and flexibility as well as provide
recreation and enjoyment. All this facilities are open to everyone who train and teach
the children do not stereotype in any area and helping them to build a healthy
personality. They are playing with different types of people which will help them to
build and develop their mental framework. They will know they cannot complete all
the games by themselves because the activities like seesaw and merry-go-round need
involve two or more people to play. For example, a Chinese child was playing with an
Indian child together will help this two children decrease their stereotyping within
5. Indian and Chinese. When they grow up, they will also accept other Indian and
Chinese friend in this situation. This is because these people have been teaching from
childhood to build this concept in their metal framework.
Moreover, playground is the second home of children. They are learnt the ability to
love and appreciate life might sound wishy-washy in the hard world of exam results,
but love and security feed a host of qualities that great learners need. These include
the ability to be open and receptive, to be willing and to feel connected. Meanwhile,
cultivating an attitude of appreciation means being able to enjoy the journey of
learning, wonder at nature, relish a good story, feel good about achievements, and
enjoy the companionship of the classroom. All of which, in turn, feed confidence,
excitement and curiosity back into the learning loop. At this stage we can teach our
children about other culture and regions with explaining to them in a positive ways.
Conclusion
PSP Park is a combination of nature and modern sport facilities. It’s healthier than
other typical parks because it contains adult gym facilities for the retired adults. It is
indeed a pleasuring space for everyone from any ages, genders and races.
