The
project is conceived as a new complex urban framework and as the place of
connection between different urban systems. Choosing a multi-scale and an articulated
functional and spatial approach, the proposal’s structure is based on a strong
connection to the rest of the city. It can be seen as a contemporary
re-interpretation of the complexity of the town’s central area.
The
project’s structures responds to the aim of revitalizing the site and the study
area by integrating different spaces and functions, and strengthening its
connection to the rest of the city.
For
this reasons, the project is defined by 5 component systems:
1. the residential area, whose development
follows the Badstugatan and Pink House directions;
2. the main public spaces system with a
new square in front of the cultural youth centre (Pink House), conceived as an
urban gate, close to the new roundabout between E45 and road 70) and towards the
south waterfront a solar park
3. the green wedge: a new park along
the E45 and the railway;
4. the weststrand park, a new system of
parks, sport facilities and leisure spaces along the E45 direction;
5. the waterfronts with new pedestrian
pathways, quays and decks along the shore.project
