une ville poreuse est une ville où la biodiversité percole et où les parcs ne

séparent pas

couches et stratégies

1 les côteaux, la plaine, les plateauxLe territoire du Grand Paris est composé

de trois grands paysages qui ont des rôles différents dans le système écologique: les

forêts sur les sols pauvres des plateaux, les zones humides de la vallée, les côteaux

avec leur richesses en biodiversité. L’idée d’une ceinture verte ne nous aide pas à la mise en relation de ces trois paysages. La

forme du système écologique est inscrite dans la topographie et dans le travail des

eaux. Les côteaux jouent un rôle de mise en relation des deux autres paysages. Il s’agit d’accentuer les possibilités de percolation

au travers des côteaux pour connecter les forêts à l’eau, plutôt que d’imaginer de

grands couloirs.

2 les bandes boisées et d’agriculture biologique

Aujourd’hui la pollution des eaux est en grande partie déterminée par l’agriculture.

On imagine de concentrer autour des zones de captation d’eau potable 20%des terrains

dédiés à l’agriculture biologique comme le préconise le Grenelle de l’environnementd’ici

à 2020, avec la recommandation que ces surfaces puissent être situées de préférence

sur les 700.000 hectares des périmètres de captation d’eau potable et de renforcer

les bandes de végétation le long des cours eaux.

3 habiter le périmètreAujourd’hui les parcs sont rarement des lieux de connexion entre les différentes parties qui

les entourent, mais plutot de distanciation et de séparation. On a étudié les bords des

parcs existants et on a sélectionné ceux qui pourraient etre modifiés et transformés.

Là on imagine des rives habitées mais perméables qui puissent rendre plus aisée

l’appropriation du parc.

“Might be conceivable to construct a park with no style of its own, where all the elements of a garden, all the plants, even all the styles, are

loosely linked together?

Where the elements are arranged alphabetically, everything easy to find and to refer to, like one

unimaginably large collection?

A Pixel Town where the boundaries between park and building become indistinct and where the building dissolves into a landscape of

differences.”

The design of the ground has not been traced on a car raod model but as a patern composed by pedestrian, cycling and tramway paths . A sort of wide “tartan” made by weak infrastructures traced on the field.

On this wide tartan we can design the composition of layers of services, housing and commercial buildings, gardens, transports, lighting.

A central axe is located on the north-south railway with theatres, lunaparks, research centers, mills and wind turbines (a sort of wind farm).

All the infrastructure related to the distribution of energies are aerial and not grounded

“This project is conceived as a mutable ground for hydrologic, ecological, and programmatic adaptation. It taps into on-site hydrologies and ecologies, both present and latent, to set in motion a re-appropriation of site, program, and context. Together, landform and vegetal strategies initiate estabilishment of a

dynamic performance ground for growth, succession, and modification.”

“Staten Island can assume a new identity as an expansive nature sprawl. A spread of lush vegetation, birds, mammals, and amphibians. A new nature-lifestyle island, both destination and envy of the surronding urbanites. As a catalyst for this new identity, the reclaimed Fresh Kills Reserve will form the heart of an expansive

green matrix of infinite horizons and newly connected ecosystems.”

Field Operations, Lifescape. Fresh kills Parklands, Staten Island (NY), 2001

“We propose a matrix of linear pathways and elements (threads), surfaces and fields (mats), and clustering groupings (islands) to maximize opportunities for access and movement - movement of seeds and biota as well as people and activities.”

Linear Threads: water, energy and matter around the site.Clusters of islands: protected habitat, seed source, program activity

Surface mats: renovated salt marsh, eastern prairie, recreation fields, freshwaters wetlands, event surfaces.

Seeding: pubblic access into safe areas of the reserve, restoration of native habitat, creating landscapes for the immediate neighborhoods.Infrastructure: new roadways, utilities, plantings, structures for a wide range programs.

Programming: golf, sports, education, arts, green-houses...

“The site presents an opportunity to develop a new form of pubblic-ecological landscape, an alternative paradigm of human creativity, biologically informed, guided more by time and process than by space and form.”

“Ecological reflection, passive recreation, active sports and exercise, creativity, performance and cultural events, community development, economic enhancement and neighborhood revitalization all take their place alongside the micro-macroscopic processes of lifescape.”
