The design sees itself as the linking of two dominant themes of Killesberg: soft nature and hard topography, dominated by peoples´ quarries. This creates a landscape that tells its own story: hard karst forms, such as broken out with a chisel, forming a quarry topography that will change over the years.

Of crushed material, the landscape turns over rounded shapes into a soft landscape that is covered with earth and green. The meadow topography combines the fields “Feuerbacher Heide”, “Grüne Fuge” and the Park before the Red Wall. A soft cushion park topography will be formed, which nicely assembles the Feuerbacher Heide, the Grüne Fuge and the Park before the Red Wall in a harmonic way.
