Grândola

As a memory of the former rural occupation of the land, the large-scale cork oaks became the driving force behind the entire intervention. This space is located in the transition between the consolidated urban fabric and the new fairground, therefore consisting a remnant of the former natural environment. The landscape intervention intends to enhance this space in the context of the urban environment, as an element of visual reference, providing conditions for its use as a small living area, associated with the social life of the neighbourhood.
