BETWEEN TOWNSCAPE AND LAKESCAPE SCALES
The landscape is becoming artificial ! Finland is a country with many lakes in which water and land live together in harmony. Its structure naturally encompasses the two elements in keeping with the landscape creating the fascinating Lake District which makes Finland unique in the world. Googling Finland; zooming; and zooming again, water seems to be at one with the land in a fractal structure where autosimilarity conditions are repeated continuously. What if we repeat this fractal structure on our site? Our proposal is to form a territory of co-existence between nature and artificiality. At the same time it incorporates all the natural conditions geometric, topographic and construction aspects, searching for an environmental sustainability and a formal complexity which reacts to the new values of our society.

The proposal is inspired from the interpretation of the basic elements of the site, the water, the field, the trees and from their organization and transformation in urban strips. These unconventional strips generate a complex bundling of waterways, housing, landscape and land-water management. Instead of a deterministic geometric law, this growing pattern has the force of a system of variable relations, of a flexible tissue that manages and adapts itself, but also imposes and changes according to the external conditions. It allows formal coherence, and it is able to configure singularities, variations or declinations. The new urban configuration is structured by a flexible system of strip lagoons and canals that constitute the principal landscape element on which all the housing typologies and services depend.
