La Campa: 10+1 goals for the public space of the 21st Century

According to the Spanish dictionary, Campa means “land with no trees”. Despite of its exceptional location nearby Collserola Nature Park with a beautiful view over the sea, La Campa was used as a landfill during the 80’s, when Barcelona was being transformed for the ‘92 Olympic Games. La Campa refurbished project started some years ago, thanks to the Teixonera neighbours, who had been claiming for a very long time that La Campa became an accessible park that would encourage sport and leisure not only for the neighbourhood, but also for the entire city. But La Campa is much more than that.

La Campa is an ecologicalscape. It works as a real stepping stone between Collserola Nature Park and the city. It becomes a key part of the urban green infrastructure inside Barcelone’s ecological matrix.

La Campa is a sustainablescape. An extensive green area without irrigation system has been implemented for the first time in Barcelona, reducing the initial investment, minimizing water consumption and diminishing maintenance.

La Campa is a naturalizedscape. It contributes to the process of renaturing cities by an accurate use of native vegetation. It achieves a new biodiverse green area more favourable to natural processes.

La Campa is a resilientscape. It promotes the recovery of the natural water cycle using Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS) through Nature-based Solutions (NbS): gravel pits and green ditches.

La Campa is an accessiblescape. It enhances sustainable mobility (for bikes and pedestrians) between La Teixonera & Vall d'Hebron neighbourhoods, and it improves accessibility creating a new accessible route.

La Campa is a humblescape. It was designed with the minimum budget (34€/m2) to achieve the maximum benefit (new sustainable water treatment system, new LED-technology street lighting, new urban furniture, sport facilities and playgrounds) by simplifying, optimizing and diversifying elements available.

La Campa is a simplescape. Only two materials (local sand and FCC wooden sleepers) were used to build up all the elements of the new public space (pavements, kerbs, signage, furniture, playgrounds and fences).

La Campa is an inclusivescape. It was devised for all kind of people, regardless of their age, gender, background or social & economic status. It improves accessibility, visibility and safety and it promotes interaction and coexistence between different aged, gender, culture & aged people.

La Campa is a proactivescape. It promotes healthy habits and enhances sport through signposted routes of different distances. Furthermore, a long jump track and three fitness areas were included.

La Campa is a playfulscape. It was designed as a single ludic & multifunctional space to promote creativity, imagination, socialization, coexistence and dynamization by including four new artificial topographies and different balance playgrounds all over a natural environment.

La Campa is a participatescape. The park was co-designed between all people involved, from public administrations, to social entities and neighbourhood associations, pursuing the co-production of public policies as an innovative element with an important social cohesion value.
