How can public space design re-connect the urban fragments divided by gigantic infrastructures? How can public space negotiate edges and thresholds that blur the line between private and public domain? How can landscape designers apply design strategies that actively engage and mediate between figure and ground, enclosure and openness, and continous and fragmented? This project targets and analyzes a series of public space in Barcelona to understand how they function as urban sutures in three aspects: enmeshing the built forms to the existing terrain, connecting disjoined urban spaces, and weaving the private and public lived experiences in the city. By traveling to Barcelona in person, this project aims to utilize immersive on-site experiences to develop documentation, spatial analysis, and representation methods that manifest how landscape design is more than “the other” and “the after”, but a proactive participant in constructing urban living experiences.
