When I first came up with the concept of Ole South USA and the sub-themes that will make up the park, I needed to decide which layout would work best. Having four distinct themes I knew I needed a layout that provided clear separation from each other making sure the guests knew and felt they were in one of those distinct lands. Yet, also not make the distance between each land too great that guests felt they had been walking more than being entertained during their visit to Ole South. After much research on types of layouts, the hub and spoke layout seem to make the most sense for Ole South. This layout provides a clear separation and also provides a way to draw the guests down from the hub to each land with an icon representing each theme. Also, connecting the lands with a perimeter pathway will make the distance much closer when moving on from one land to the other. Another benefit to this layout is since the lands are not boxed in, there will be room for future growth. A must for any long term successful theme park venture.
So there you have it, the hub and spoke layout for Ole South USA. As always, I would love your feedback. I hope you have a great day!
