Landscape Urbanism
The project uses the food production process as a possibility and medium to generate new urban environments.Existing water lines served as a guidelines for structuring the site. The branching rule allows water to move through natural gravity folowing decrease of terrain, establishing a water treatment process with a system of constructed wetlands.The adjacent nodal system is based on the concept of activation points - local centres which operate on the vacant voids between built-up areas, incorporating various programmes and providing maximum productivity according to possible area.Activation points have mixed land use with different emphases in terms of percentage, which allows to develop a specific characteristics of each node type.The overall view of territorial organisation, where each layer can be identifiedThe node development is based on the study of dynamic performance through overlapping of conditions and intersections of flows.Masterplan
