Environmental artist Adam Kuby was part of the design team for Portland’s Westmoreland Nature Play Area, and he has also made this lovely Wavewalk as a skateable entry into Pier Park Skate Park.
“Skateboarders originally took their cues from surfing and began skating the urban landscape like surfers carving ocean swells. Here a walk transforms into a wave and a wave into a walk. You can walk it or ride it. Half of the walkway’s concrete is colored with an aqua pigment.”
Play-as-Path, and Path-as-Play. Why make a boring sidewalk when you can make a playable one?
