Motoric park was designed as a result of interdisciplinary cooperation between the field of sports physiotherapy and the architectural profession. Its function builds on physiotherapeutic bases of the development of the neuromuscular system. In this sense, 34 training stations pose challenges to key motor components that enhance the individual's motor skills. Depending on the mode of use, the stations are flexible in a wide range of intensities, which means that individuals with a different degree of physical fitness can be trained safely on the selected device. In addition to muscular activity, cognitive activity also determines the motoric ability of the individual.
In this context, motor park includes carefully selected tools, taking into account the instructions, present both the mental and the motor challenge to the individual. Concentration of stations into a spatial zone of an elongated character directly follows the exercise program,the distance between the devices is optimized according to the variety of users or exercise intensities. In addition to individual use, group visits are planned, where for the convenience of simultaneous use of tools, it is desirable to divide into subgroups on individual devices. Spaces for rest - benches - are distributed evenly across the zone according to the intensity of exercise on the motoric park equipment. Adjoining the motoric park, a separated area is intended exclusively for the youngest, equipped with six children's toys made of high quality timber.
With its disposition and purpose, motoric park creates a spatial and program backbone of a wider area of arrangements of the southern shore of Kamenšnica. This area is upgraded with four picnics spaces and a larger space for outdoor events. The footpaths link the mentioned programs with Expano building, new external lighting and elements of urban equipment (benches, baskets) functionally complement the basic purpose of the area. Green areas are planted with local plant species, thus helping to restore natural biotopes in an area that was regarded as degraded prior to intervention.
