OASI

Sant Just Desvern, Senan, Horta de Sant Joan, Donostia, Spain
The collective is conformed by four architects who materialized their final project for the master's degree in architecture of the Vallès School of Architecture. As students we sum up our personal values to a common manifesto that was nurtured by a transversal process that brought together complementary disciplines for the complex intervention in the fluvial environment. OASI was designed as a real order, with a real client and in real time: from the initial phase to the final construction.

Renaturalization of Llobregat river in its passage through Sallent

OASI


Renaturalization of Llobregat river in its passage through Sallent
Renaturalization of a heritage area with natural logics that enables fluvial resilience of the territory along time.
File under
Type of project
  • Systemic changes

Oasi becomes a system that rediscovers the spirit of fluvial dynamics, providing new uses and functions in public space that guarantee the resilience of the urban patterns and the ecological connectivity of the territory. The perception and collective imaginary are renewed with a fluvial space of reencounter with nature. We aim to strengthen and dignify the identity of a place that has lost its roots. Our methodology sets the territorial dynamics of the site as a starting point, where is expected that the phenomenology will evolve naturally to a fluvial ecosystem over time. The topography configures a balanced and strategic land movement concerning the floods; the vegetation recovers the structure of the riverbank forest in relation to the phreatic level; and the bioengineering techniques consolidate the exposed margin. In the context of assuming new climatic conditions, our generation must recover from the respect and empathy towards the landscape, the space that belongs to nature.



Fluvial morphodynamics as a key to the transformation process from the anthropized to the natural.

The recovery of the riverbank forest becomes an oasis in the middle of a strongly transformed area.

Renewal of the fluvial perception and the collective imaginary.

A river scenario that the passage of time will determine.

Natural constructing techniques that strengthen over time.
