Nils-Petter was commissioned by ÖBO to create an appealing bird’s-eye view illustration of the upcoming redesign of Varberga park. The park, located in Örebro, was to be rebuilt into a fun, flourishing activity park for kids in the neighborhood. The client needed a visualization for communication purposes, showing the park with activities such as water play, bicycle tracks, and building play areas (bygglek), as well as the basic layout of trees and plantings dividing the space into various 'rooms.' Additionally, the client wanted to highlights the park as an important connecting green space to the nearby Varberga forest nature reserve. For references the illustrator used CAD drawings from the landscape architect and various reference photos taken on-site.
