  • DISRUPTION & LANDSCAPE: We all have a preconceived idea of landscape with an artistic palette and a charming place. However, this is a personal concept so, what make us all perceived the beauty in the landscape?. Probably is the use of the landscape itself what make us identy with the place. Is the disruption or interaction with a place what let us identify the "hiden rules" common to all of us
  • SELF-KNOWLEDGE & LANDSCAPE LITERACY :As long as the community is engage to know about their past and their history in terms of landscape, better are the chances for them to face new, efficient and successful planning for their future. Thereby, having the capacity of reading their landscape though the academic partnership, the Mill Creek neighboors, were able to create extraordinary proposals away of the sense of guilt and resignation

  • ..Mental Image: The imageability or the appearance of any city does not fully rely on its design, physical condition, workability or special organization. The inhabitants, users or the outsiders make an environmental image of the city in their mind and navigate there by 5 (five) physical characteristics. Those are Paths (way of movement), Edges (Physical or mental boundary to difference with the surrounding’s boundary), Districts (a piece of cake in the whole city to remember the identity), Nodes (Strategic points of connections, activities or transitions) and Landmarks (external points of reference, which dominates the usual city structures). Planners or designers nowadays consider those factors while building or rebuilding a city for the look of the city.

Assignment 2 - Your Landscape Symbols

  • You can read more details about this assignment here

Landscape Symbols Author 1: Melissa

  • This image represents a place where anyone can have access to nature and landscape. Symbols, then, are open spaces without predetermined uses and without absolute pretensions.Symbolos are places or objects that allow the user to create their own meaning of use and their own experience

  • This image represents the symbols as objects in space that allows interaction between citizens and visitors.In this place, new and individual worlds and spaces are recreated in common places. The symbols are portals of interaction, imagination and fusion between the human being and the landscape

  • This space allows the interaction between cultures, people and history. This, a strategic place in Stuttgart, seeks not only to represent the historical and cultural legacy of the city, but invites its inhabitants to enjoy the landscape, invites also to find different activities around an emblematic place and with it, allows to leave a memory of the symbols in the landscape

  • This is the Piazza Maggiore in Bologna in Italy. It’s pretty simple but on this picture we can have a overview of buildings (arranged a fiew undred years ago by men) and people enjoying life in this square. It’s a place where people share, talk communicate and have a good time. Nowadays, it is a social place. Even if the building was built a long time ago it serves now a public purpose with a view on the piazza. These building physically enclose the piazza but there are still some openings with to let people walk freely. There are also some events quite frequently that people from everywhere can enjoy.)

  • This is a park located in Liège in Belgium. This park shows a playground where children can play and also where old people can seat around, have a walk. This is a place where people can really enjoy life, have a drink and just relax. As said just before, this place is shared by diffrent generations and so it is a good way to share their knoldege

  • Located in Tilff, a small village in Belgium, this is again a public place where you can see bars all around. There are some events organised quite often but this common space is a smaller scale than the other public spaces but I chose this one because, I already enjoyed a few events there. For me it is a symbol of democracy because before making any changement on this public space, the local inhabitants are requested to talk about the projects the want to do there. The final decision it take by representatives chosen by the local people.

  • This is the center space of Stuttgart Messe. Here, the people are always busy with conference, exhibition or trade fair type corporate and artificial looking things. But within this place, there are some soft corners- justified with trees and natures. It shows us that nothing is perfect without a touch of nature.

  • Those are the foliage of trees in a reserved forest at Stuttgart. All of the foliage have covered the sky and they have also maintained their own territory respectively. They never conflict with others territory but also represent their own status.

  • This is a part of Stuttgart U-Garden project. Here, we can see the perfect juxtaposition of Nature, Landscape and Man-made built form. Every important element of the environment are all together in here. People live here, work here, do their recreational activity here.
