Built on a plot that is close to the highway and not meant to be built permanently, a plan was accepted that will offer a 30-year interim solution and will also be used to strengthen the ecological characteristics of the landscape once the housing is moved. Only the bare minimum is hardscape, ensuring routes for pedestrians, cyclists and cars. The rest is landscape, used as 'commons'. Hundreds of new trees will be planted, re-creating the ‘chambers’ structure of the original landscape that was lost. The landscape that will further be populated with small clusters of housing, based on the old Dutch principle of a 'Buurtschap' a small neighbourhood that is characterised by its tight-knit social network and mutual help. The land in between the houses is shared and treated as commons. A robust water system is implemented for buffering and infiltrating water. The jury praises the experimental approach, both in housing typologies and the experiment of how communities can live together based on a shared public space/landscape without private appropriation. The jury is curious how the landscape will grow and mature in the coming three decades and what the profession can learn from this approach. ]]> https://landezine.com/buurtschap-te-veld-by-studio-blad/feed/ 1 https://landezine.com/guangzhou-wanggang-park-by-s-p-i-design/ https://landezine.com/guangzhou-wanggang-park-by-s-p-i-design/#comments Tue, 11 Jul 2023 14:42:45 +0000 https://landezine.com/?p=96774 The jury recognized the masterful dialogue between the old and new, the more restrained approach to the redesign of 'urban villages' in dense Chinese city centres.
