Concept

Overview

We propose a single infrastructure, that connects the city with the plot while enhancing a new social and ecological value to the city. This includes a series of landscape interventions to reduce the sound level of the ring road. The green spaces will be watered through a circular use of the accessible water. Water from the urbanized surroundings, including the ring road, will be used to irrigate the green spaces. The projects aims to connecting the public spaces with the city, opening up new areas for communities and social gathering s to emerge. Urban gardens and sport circuits for sports will form the main character of this new area. The project could be explained as the cycle of water purification, as an interchange between the city and the mountain.
