Blending System:

Blending Systems aims at creating new interactions between people, green systems and mobility. Climate change is causing new perturbations and a transition towards a more conscious living is extremely necessary.  Issues like flooding, coast erosion, biodiversity loss and energy crises are all tackled by our proposal.

The project acts through 3 main systems: the Besos River, the social activation and cultural productivity. It focuses on upgrading the environmental conditions and reinforcing biodiversity in the Besos river mouth and raising people’s awareness through the creation of a research center about renewable energies in the smokestacks. 

 

This new configuration of the space should create new flows and synergies between people, green systems, mobility and leisure. We strongly believe that if we change the physics support, the existing biotics and encourage the cultural part, the social activation will be the resulted element that will blend the systems. The project will be the base for rewriting a new identity for the place, generating new interest, new uses and a new community, taking care of this new reality.
