ABSTRACT

The parks are always required in urban areas but repair is the key feature that enriches parks with the visitors. The maintenance and facilities of the landscape area is a major concern for today's landscapers due to cost analysis and available facilities for the projects. The research worked on the landscape design and facilities provided to the visitors of National Bank Park, Lahore Pakistan. Many research related to landscape have been conducted, but they are not focused on the parks which are constructed under the supervision of a company. The data was collected through a survey and a small interview session from the visitors coming into the park. The balance, proportion, rhythm, and beauty along with a combination of colors, textures, and forms are incorporated in the park. The majority of female students answered the questionnaire, the provided space, gazebos, walking paths, flowering plants, trees and trash bins in the park are satisfactory but cleaning need attention. A floor plan must be provided at the entrance of the park. Interviews concluded that boating area requires frequent water filtration, the swings need to be repaired and food quality and prices need to be evaluated. More trash cans and bins are needed to ensure waste management of the park. The garden needs division of the space to serves different activities.
