Landscape Democracy Rationale

• Why do you think this case is relevant? What is your hypothesis considering the landscape challenges?
• The Freisinger Moos area is located to the south-west of Freising. It is an area with both nature and agriculture.
• Landscape challenges:
  • CO₂ neutral future​
  • Flood prevention​
  • Future self-sufficient community​
  • Urban growth​
  • Biotope enrichment​
  • How do we give nature and the river a voice?

Phase A: Mapping Your Community

Welcome to Your Community and Their Landscape

• 

  Open areas of agricultural land.

• 

  A few wooded areas.

• 

  Water-retention areas.

• 

  Moosach is very small in the city of Freising

• 

  Gardens attached to the Moosach.

• 

  Open fields.

• 

  View of the Weihenstephaner berg.

• 

  The focus area for Landscape Democracy. To the southwest of the city of Freising.

• 

  The land-use of the focus area.

Groups of Actors and Stakeholders in Your Community

• 

  Groups of the community

• 

  Most immporatant community groups with needs, power and contribute.

• There are a lot of groups within our focus area. These groups can be seen in the community grouping circle. This also shows how close these are connected with the river Moosach.
• From the community grouping circle we picked a few groups to focus on.

Relationships Between Your Actors and Groups

• 

  The needs of the most important groups.

• 

  The power mapping of the community groups, shown in a graph.

• The groups we would like to work with, each have their own needs. The first image shows how the needs of these groups intersect with eachother.
• The power mapping graph shows the amount of power each group from within the focus area has. Besides this it also shows how much effect the landscape challenges have on these groups.

Theory Reflection

• • For Landscape Democracy to achieve its full potential, education must be re-envisioned to offer future design and planning professionals to test their skills in recognizing challenges, opportunities and ethically and responsibly intervene to shape a socially sustainable. ​
    • Didactic Formats fostering the development of competencies and transformative learning. The experimental character of projects allows for making mistakes. (within the protected space of the university) as an essential part in the process of learning.​

Bartus Boglárka, Change our relationship to water

• 

  I personalized Moosach as a raunchy little boy, who is not paid much attention but who is gentle and cares about the species which live there.

• 

  There is no real connection between people who live here and the river. The reason is that its only a few point which are inviting to get to the watersurface.

• 

  In the city water still acts in this way. Centuries passed by and the wold has changed,but still, this is how we deal with waterbodies.

• 

  Or like this. Pressed under buildings.

• 

  We build our settlements near water, and then form it in the way we like it.

• 

  We take the services the river can give us, but do not think about its "needs", however its even in our interest to do so.

• 

  QUESTION!: To the ones, who live in the city, or next to the river. Would you make sacrifices to make room for the river? Would you be able to make compromises? It's in your best interest too.

Phase D: Collaborative Design, Transformation and Planning

Your Prototyping Action

Our prototype focusses on creating a connection between the people of Freising and the food they eat. By creating a new walking path from the city of Freising to the small town of Pulling. This path will come across multiple points, where interesting things can be seen. It goes through agricultural area, so that the people can see where their food is grown.

The Evolution of Your Prototyping Action

The setup for this phase had already started in Phase C. Where we focussed on creating a nice walking route. This point would become our starting point for the creation of the whole route from the city centre of Freising to the small town of Pulling.

The Plan Behind Your Prototyping Action

• 

  Starting point of the route.

• 

  Creating and improving the active mobility infrastructure next to the Moosach river.

• 
• 

  Remeandering the Moosach river, giving the river it's natural shape back.

• 

  Offering new forms of agriculture, that reduce CO2 emissions.

• 

  Creating a nice crossing for the river Moosach.

• 

  Creating a foodforest, where people can come and collect food and grow it together.

• 

  Creating a nice crossing for the Westtangente road.

• 

  Adding the route on to existing walking paths.

• 

  Reforming the cross junction in the city centre, to become a nice entrance plaza for the main street of Freising.

• 

  Ending the route at the city centre, Marienplatz.

The points we come across during our newly created route.

The Realization of Your Prototyping Action

The video showing the route created for Landscape Democracy phase D.

Reflect on Your Prototyping Action

By making the video we found out that there is a possibility for creating a road. However the scale of our prototype is very big. So trying to implement it in reality was not possible. However using the video format is a nice way of showing a prototype. Especially since it also included pictures that showed how it would eventually look like. This is a good way to show people what you want to make. Showing this to locals is also a plus, since they are familiar with the project area and can therefor envision the interventions in the landscape more easily.

Phase E: Collaborative Evaluation and Future Agendas
