Bicycle parking lots increase conspicuously along with the rise of bicycle use.
However, the efficiency of land usage of these lots is questionable; exposing one’s bike increases the chances of theft; not to mention that it is inconvenient to pedestrians – and these are amongst the various reasons why outdoor bicycle lots are under-utilized
With this aim of bettering the situation, I have sought to provide a design that promotes more efficient land usage by providing additional services such as a space for rest, retrieval of information such as road directions, thus promoting the space as a cultural realm.
