Audience
During my demographic research in MSP,
I realized that it is more a location of convenience rather than a choice.
To me, a park is a social place where you meet different people. The image of the MSP as an interactive hub was lost.
My goal is to create a platform that will use Souvlaki as a reason for interaction amongst the people of different backgrounds.
