DEFENSE UNDERGROUND - HABITAT ATTRACTORS IN THE AGROINDUSTRIAL SYSTEM OF "LA BALSA DEL SAPO"

It is considered a proposal for action on the edge of La Balsa del Sapo (Almería, Spain) and it's understood as a rehabilitation of the existing perimeter trail, with the function of establishing new infrastructures for the containment of land that at the same time leads to a new tour and some new meeting spaces favor the relationship with natural environment.

With this intention, the raft would take the value it deserves as a public place not only for Las Norias de Daza but for all the surrounding towns. Therefore, being an infrastructure that would modify the border, it could encompass a territorial proposal throughout the perimeter, being understood as a large green corridor, integrating different uses and endowments.

The project focuses on one of the pieces where this treatment of land containments is most urgent, also using a new pumping system for the reuse of rainwater and floods, destined for the agricultural activity of nearby greenhouses.

The program that manages the project for the reactivation of this point consists of being a multipurpose piece that generates new spaces for the people, especially the foreign population. The creation of rooms and classrooms of this type allow Las Norias de Daza to receive immigrant reception points that are currently sorely lacking. The project would be used for temporary exhibitions, language classes, a meeting place, audiovisual rooms, conferences, etc. understood as a changing proposal according to the needs that arise.

We understand the strategy as of the many phases that must be carried out to counteract the floods, and establish new safe spaces inhabited by both humans and nature itself.
