TEAM POINT OF VIEW — We stayed a week in Trelleborg to take into
consideration the existing things that would feed the project. And the question was: how to deal in a subtle way with legitimate ambitions and respect of the genius loci? 1 / advent. First, the apparition of the infrastructure web and accommodations. The principle is simply to continue the existing paths that are already heading to the port. Keeping the existing visual connections and creating new housing blocks according to the purest urban intel: the street. The diversity of uses and lifestyles are leading directly to the city. Then, the implementation of emerging green spaces in the south part. The trees will be the first protection from the wind. The waterfront will always be public. 2 / production. Densification of the first phase web. A new geopolitical ambition: to be a major city in the Baltic Union. 3 / prospective. Thanks to its rubber industry Trelleborg’s port will continue to enjoy the future.
