3. the vision 5. Site furnishings Amenities such as benches, drinking fountains, bike racks, signage, and lighting are located throughout the park. These elements provide important amenities, as well as opportunities to reinforce the Lake Ellyn Park’s character. The plan recommendations for the selection of site furnishings are as follows: • Use forms compatible with the traditional architectural style of the boathouse and adjacent homes; • Select traditional, locally relevant materials including stone, metal, and wood; • Prioritize sustainable characteristics- low energy use, durable, locally/regionally sourced, sustainably harvested wood, etc; • Employ local/regional artisans and craftsmen into the design and fabrication process for some elements as practical; reflect the natural and cultural history into signage, memorial, and decorative elements The following examples exhibit some of these qualities, and are a starting point for product sourcing: Furnishings example family A Bench - family A Trash and recycling containers - family A Backless bench - family A Lake Ellyn Park Master Plan 49
