Parque de Food Trucks

Greetings Dear Client.


What comes to your mind when you hear the words food truck? Street Food, isn't it? Well my proposal for your food truck park applies the whole idea of street food into a design concept to ensure visitors to the park get the vibe of being in the streets and enjoying delicious food while at it.


This concept is executed by organizing the food trucks and trailers along lines that will operate as small streets within the park. Each street will serve visitors foods of a particular type such that the experience of one street is uniquely different from the other, hence the joy of street food. This design proposes that the streets be 'Local Cuisine Street', 'Exotic Cuisine Street', 'Ice Cream/Drinks Street' and 'Retail Street', but the groupings can freely change depending on the experience you want to offer visitors at a given period/season.


It's also important to note that whereas the proposed traffic flow plan seems to limit access of food trucks to pedestrians only, these streets are wide enough to accommodate vehicular traffic. This brings in the concept of flexibility and adaptability since in case you'd like the streets to be used as drive-throughs rather than walkways, you can simply remove the mobile bollards at the entry point near the playground and cars can move through freely.


Finally I saw it wise to include a live music corner to give the park more character and make the street food experience even more memorable. When not in use for music the space can still be used as more outdoor sitting spaces. As for the facilities needing enclosures such as restrooms, office and bar, this design proposes trailers rather than buildings so as to fit in with the theme of the park as well as for mobility should the park ever need to move from this site.


I believe my proposal meets your expectations from this project. I'm available should you need any further clarifications after the competititon has concluded. I thank you for the opportunity!
