Cities are settlements that live as a whole with their nature and construction. These two elements, artificial and natural, are in constant interaction with each other, and the lack or excess of one relative to the other, or the composition they create together, It is reflected in the appearance of the city and therefore in the urban landscape .

The project area is located in the garden of Dinçerler Anatolian High School, which is located on Dinçerler Street, the main artery of Tokat/Zile. The project design was started with the request of the Zile Directorate of National Education that the park to be designed would create a new recreation area for the people of the region and play a refreshing role in the transformation of the city .

The surrounding islands and the urban spaces they create form the backbone of the project. With the continuity of urban qualities in the area, it is aimed that the city captures its own landscape trace. The designated green and hard ground is articulated on its own scale, seating areas are defined.

The designed new entrance axis is defined by pergola skeletons to emphasize the connection between the city and the park entrance and to create a semi-permeable shade area while guiding visitors into the park. At the same time, per-goles have been converted into seating units with bookcases in some uses.
