VACIANDO EL ESPACIO

This proposal for an urban garden establishes an artificial space, interior and livable, from creating a void in a natural landscape. Starting from a dense forest made of bamboo and birch, three access points are created that extend to the city, relating the surroundings with the new garden. The combination of these new paths generates a space, a void in the forest. This new space, white, contrasts with the original landscape. This project is an exercise that explores the spatial relationships between the natural and artificial spaces created and its users. An urban garden that, beyond the visual relationship, is meant to be playful and explored by the visitors. ,

This proposal was submitted to the second edition of BilbaoJardín 2009.
