Abstract: |
The design of specific infrastructures in relationship with their landscapes is a constant challenge, to achieve public acceptance through a harmonious integration. In the last three decades, we chose to work on this topic over a geographical, and technical point of view. This design path is explained over four different projects, in various contexts and at different scales– where consistent attention to the city, landscape, fabric and structural behavior subtly combines into specific designs: how asymmetry orientates the project in Bordeaux; the meeting of two districts over the railways in La Rochelle; a viaduct that offers an urban roof in Paris neighborhood; and a dialog between city and landscape in Linz (Austria). |
