BETWEEN TOWNSCAPE AND LAKESCAPE SCALES
The landscape is becoming artificial ! Finland is a country with many lakes in which water and land live together in harmony. Its structure naturally encompasses the two elements in keeping with the landscape creating the fascinating Lake District which makes Finland unique in the world. Googling Finland; zooming; and zooming again, water seems to be at one with the land in a fractal structure where autosimilarity conditions are repeated continuously. What if we repeat this fractal structure on our site? Our proposal is to form a territory of co-existence between nature and artificiality. At the same time it incorporates all the natural conditions geometric, topographic and construction aspects, searching for an environmental sustainability and a formal complexity which reacts to the new values of our society.

The proposal is inspired from the interpretation of the basic elements of the site, the water, the field, the trees and from their organization and transformation in urban strips. These unconventional strips generate a complex bundling of waterways, housing, landscape and land-water management. Instead of a deterministic geometric law, this growing pattern has the force of a system of variable relations, of a flexible tissue that manages and adapts itself, but also imposes and changes according to the external conditions. It allows formal coherence, and it is able to configure singularities, variations or declinations. The new urban configuration is structured by a flexible system of strip lagoons and canals that constitute the principal landscape element on which all the housing typologies and services depend.

Territory benefits from the fact that is swept by the wind. By harvesting the wind energy through an offshore wind farm, it will have its own CO2-neutral power supply. The wind turbines will power the entire land.

SOLAR HEAT PANELS
The buildings of the territory are entirely heated and cooled by heat pumps connecting to the surrounding. Solar heat panels integrated in the architecture create a steady supply of hot water.

MEDIA IN THE HOUSE The basic idea of home automation is to employ sensors and control systems to monitor a dwelling, and accordingly adjust the various mechanisms that provide heat, ventilation, lighting, and other services. By more closely tuning the dwelling’s mechanical systems to the dweller’s needs, the automated "intelligent" home can provide a safer, more comfortable, and more economical dwelling.

SUSTAINABLE HOMES Minimize the negative environmental impact of buildings by enhancing efficiency and moderation in the use of materials and energy is one of the principle topic of this proposal. The construction itself is thought in terms of energetically reduction using materials from Finland such as wood, glass which are strongly recyclable and studying bioclimatic solutions.
WASTE RECYCLING
w
Industrial composting systems are increasingly being installed as a waste management alternative to landfills, along with other advanced waste processing systems. Mechanical sorting of mixed waste streams combined with anaerobic digestion or invessel composting is increasingly used due to regulations controlling the amount of organic matter allowed in landfills.

BIOMASS HEAT
WATER
Wood pellets are increasingly being used to heat homes and other buildings instead of oil or electricity. Pellets can also be used in place of oil in the peak boilers of district heating networks. The power-to-heat ratio of bioenergy CHP is being further improved thanks to new technologies, while smaller plant capacities can make bioenergy a more feasible option for distributed energy systems. Biomass is also rapidly gaining importance as raw material for liquid biofuels in transport.
All the proposed treatments share the fact of being based on systems of beds of macrophyte beds or vegetal filters. The previous and precise treatments work by means of a system of vertical circulation (vertical flow) whereas the surrounding reed beds do it by means of horizontal circulation (horizontal flow).
