concept diagram HYDRO-LANDSCAPES: From the Andes to the Pacific Rene Davids . ARCH 100D
Chile is a long, thin country wedged between the Andes and the Pacific Ocean with an average width of only 109 miles and many rivers hurtling down mountain slopes with dramatic changes in altitude, climate, and vegetation compressed into very short distances. The Río Maipo supplies most water for the Santiago metro region and is the most important in the area, yet the journey from the headwaters in the Andes (7550 feet) to the Pacific Ocean takes only approximately three hours. Program - A new proposed infrastructure consisting of rest s tops, nature viewing areas, bridges, stairs, exhibition facilities a nd shelters on a new system of trails along Chile’s rivers, will enh ance conservation efforts by raising public awareness of natural resources and encourage healthier life styles. The Hydro-Landsca pes studio will be designing stations along the Rio Maipo trail.
