Reshaping European cities by bringing back a lost Identity
Reshaping European cities by bringing back a lost Identity
My proposal is developed on an area of the city of Szczecin, city that has gone through a dense series of historical events. It represents all those European cities, going through a transitional phase and suffering from a psychosis of a lack of Identity. Therefore my proposal for Szczecin would serve as a case-study for this general strategy that could be implemented for all of them, dealing with the same condition.
In my strategy I focus on migliorating the existing heavy infrastructure in the area, bringing back the water identity to the city through creating the 'Maritime Path' as a series of spaces related to water activities, re- bringing the once existing greenway identity of the river lagoon. At the same time combining social and environmental engineering in re-using the existing structures for small economies and implementing a system of water purification through Constructed wetlands as the most innovative and endangered habitats.
