Preliminary Design<br />
Options & Community<br />
Workshop #2<br />
PRELIMINARY DESIGN OPTION FEEDBACK<br />
Community Workshop #2 - Yellow Rose Event Center<br />
During the second community workshop, stakeholders and members of<br />
the <strong>Derby</strong> community review the preliminary design palette options, and<br />
discussed their ideas and preferences regarding the final preferred design<br />
direction. The critical themes that emerged during the workshop were<br />
a strong preference for the shape and forms that blend <strong>Derby</strong>’s railroad<br />
history (as illustrated by design option C), blended with the materials<br />
and colors of the more modern “googie” <strong>Derby</strong> palette (design option<br />
A). Although strong and modern colors were preferred, there was also a<br />
preference for making the final design palette less playful in it’s application<br />
of color.<br />
The most controversial element of the outreach was the ‘space ball’ on top<br />
of the ‘A’ palette option. In both discussions and comments, this element<br />
was either adored or reviled, with the overall preferences splitting very<br />
50/50 in regard to whether this should be included in the final design<br />
palette.<br />
During the second community workshop,<br />
<strong>Derby</strong> stakeholders and community<br />
members reviewed the preliminary design<br />
palettes, and provided feedback regarding<br />
their preferences and ideas<br />
