scob architecture and landscape

  • Project: SCOB + EXMF
    Team: O.Saro, O.Cabrera
    Surface: 4.650m2 
    Client: Ajuntament de sant Boi de Llobregat + AMB

    The project proposes a new paradigm for the central spaces of the well-known roundabouts, often trivialized or ignored: THE BIOTONDAS

    The proposal applies the guidelines of Nature Based Solutions (NBSs) that propose ecological strategies in the constitution or reconstitution of urban spaces. It is therefore a matter of improving the space by enhancing its biodiversity and structural complexity, which improves functional ecological aspects.

    In this case, a vegetation ring is established that inside makes it possible to have a temporary sheet of water linked to rainfall and with its own dynamics, so that other species more linked to the temporary river system can develop.

    The action provides a wide area of water infiltration, in ecological dynamics, through the Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS).
