add visual interest and serve to define the various spaces connected by
the walk. The mounding landforms provide partial screening of views
into adjoining outdoor study spaces and along the corridor of the walk.
As the pedestrian approaches these spaces, the view into them opens up
to reveal the full space. Sunlight accents the sculpted landscape, casting
shadows and providing bright openings that together articulate the space
and add another layer of visual interest, particularly as the alternating
shade and sunlight move across the landscape during the day.
