SAVE THE TREES!

EMPOWER!

The spatial framework takes the shape of an alluvial forest. This allows the locals of Krems-East to invoke the many laws protecting this type of forest against developments that deteriorate their living qualities. This gives the neighborhood a stronger voice in the development of their region. The forest should be developed as public space for the inhabitants of Krems-East. It has room for events and public functions, and space to just go for a walk.

USE WHAT’S THERE

Much of the framework can be developed relatively easily by making better use of the forested leftover spaces that are already there. These can be incrementally improved and

extended.

SLOW TRAFFIC NETWORK

A network of bike- and pedestrian paths is integrated in the forest structure. This network better connects the different parts of Krems-East, as well as Krems-East with the center.
