Project
AP164.S1.2003.D10
Description:
The project series documents the commission and built project for an urban development and a public park on the banks of the rivers Torio and Bernesca in the area of La Lastra, León, Spain. The firm identified the project as number 173. “The park of La Lastra is composed by the superpositioning [sic] of four different states of natural space: a fluvial park, an urban park, an agricultural park and a park with common installations. Being next to the urbanization of La Lastra, both public spaces, both adopt a minimum strategy of landscape bubbles and urbanized bubbles respectively in the way that the whole complex becomes a continuum and achieves a scale able to diffuse the traditional limits of either urban fabric or park, confirming a singular complex which responds to the way in which new generations can understand the relation between nature and artificial.” (ARCH270975) Two other projects are related to this one: Alcorque para León (AP164.S1.2004.D5) and Puentes de León (AP164.S1.2004.D6). Documenting the project are presentation documents, notes, a dummy and a proposal.
