EMERGENT/SUBMERGENT LANDSCAPE STRUCTURES I FORMING A PARK ON CERTOSA ISLAND TO CATCH THE TIDES OF THE VENETIAN LAGOON
1. REVIEW SITUATION 1:2000
First design concept hand-in with situation. Rough concept of uncovering the historical situation on certosa with the ruins of carthusian monastery historical vineyards. In a second step extending the existing island with vineyards to create a local recreation and event area that is economically self-supporting and also adding a more venetian, adequate and subtle "porticciolo" than the existing marina. By using an enfilade of enclosed spaces created by existing napoleonic brick walls (Reference Cimentiere di San Michele), new walls, topographic edges and smaller channels, the big island is brought to a more local scale and landscape .
