paesaggi effimeri - ephemeral lanscape - paisajes efimeros

This blog presents some of my personal projects and investigations about architecture, design and urbanism, trying to connect concept of "duration" with landscape.

Europan12 - first prize project: "PATHS"

Competition project, Urban regeneration in Hamarö, Sweden
Europan 12 first prize, with Hugo Vargas (arch.)

SEE THE PROJECT HERE:

The proposal will be divided in different phases, with a maximum flexibility: first step consists in the re-use of existing pavilions to start a social-economic regeneration of the area. Afterwards project plans growth around a closed street in a “ring” shape, producing a new urban pathway with new public spaces and stone flooring. We propose dwelling typologies, with integrated system of built links, that re-shapes existing pavilions. Along the external path, interchange stations keep cars out of the urban ring. Project defines strategies to preserve and regenerate the perennial landscape and strengthen the system of functional vegetation for sun and snow season, around the new urban core: an ecological restoration to produce a climatic protection and a natural contention of urban growth. A wetland trail will connect the urban area to the lagoon, changing from a static to a dynamic landscape.
