Landschaftpark Duisburg-Nord
In the Landscape Park Duisburg Nord extending over an area of about 180 hectares, nature, industrial heritage and a fascinating light installation combine to create a park landscape unlike any other in the world. Visit the spot in the evening, where you hopefully have a clear look at the beautiful light installation.
Landschaftspark
This park is a part of a bigger strategic plan of the Ruhr Districts in an attempt to set quality building and planning standards for environmental and social transformation of the old industrialised region. Landschaftspark is a public park designed in 1990 by Latz + Partner (Peter Latz). The area was left in 1985 by the coal and steal industry. The construction of the 230 hectare area began in 1992 and lastest 10 years. The intention from the designer was that the park should heal and understand the industrial past, rather than trying to reject it. The park is divided into different areas; which borders are carefully chosen and developed by the different conditions already existing (planting, roads, railways ect.). This is combined with a series of paths and waterways placed on top of the old railway and sewer system. The elements in the area
is programmed differently; the old gas tanks are now pools for scuba divers, concrete walls can be used for rock climbing and the concrete bunkers encloses small intimate gardens.
introduced, leading to as many as 450 native and exotic species, now appearing at many early stages of natural succession.
From the beginning, principles of ecology and sustainability guided the design and implementation of this new landscape. Remnants of demolished structures were reused in planting substrates, recycled concrete, or new paving materials. The toxic soil due to the previous use is cleansed through phytoremediation (cleansing through plants) and remains in place. Previously, the river Emsher going through the site had served as an open sewer channel, but now Emsher is converted into a collector for pretreated runoff and rainwater.

3 In an ingenious system of water collection, rain water is fed into the Old Emscher: by means of the interplay of barrages and water shoots it’s possible to collect rainwater and feed it in after a time delay so that, even in lengthy dry spells, water can be supplied to the Old Emscher to replenish the oxygen levels
4 The extensive area of Landscape Park Duisburg Nord lends itself superbly to being explored not only on foot but also by bike.
6 The British artist Jonathan Park’s light installation immerses the old ironworks in a fascinating sea of light and colour.
5 The park is home to lots of species of plants which have travelled here with the iron ore and created for themselves a new place to live.

Euralille
The heart of Euralille - the TGV Station Europe, Parc Henri-Matisse and commercial buildings. Source: http://www.popsu.archi.fr
With the connection of the TGV network from London to Paris, Lille became a new center of attention for business and culture. This spurred the urge to create a large scale project to improve the area surrounding the new station - and thereby connect the city to the rest of Europe. Large scale buildings and green areas make up the new district of Euralille.
Concept Euralille is the name of an large scale master plan conducted by OMA (The Office for Metropolitan Architecture).
“Lille is a new important culture- and business centre” The premise of the masterplan was the extension of the TGV network (train à grande vitesse) to include
London through the tunnel between England and France. The reduced travel times and the strategic position between London, Paris and Brussels made Lille a new important cultureand business center. The master plan was constructed on 120 hectares on the site of the former city fortificahttp://en.nai.nl tions. The project was based on a publicprivate partnership and is first foremost an organization of infrastructure. A junction where different types of infrastructure meets. Besides large infrastructural elements, the plan also consist of several large scale buildings: Triangle Des Gares designed by Jean Nouvel, containing shops, offices, homes and a theater. A TGV station with two towers above it: Tour Credit Lyonnais by Christian de Portzamparc and the Tour WTC by Claude Vasconi. The Grand Palais, a center for congresses, exhibitions and major concerts designed by OMA themselves.

Parc Henri-Matisse
Overview of Park Henri-Matisse. In the background, the TGV Station Europe marks the centre of Euralille. In the foreground, the island for biodiversity, Ile Deborence stands - inaccessible to the visitor. Source: http://www.visualiseeurometropolis.eu/fr/border/european-hub
Part of the Euralille, Parc HenriMatisse mainly consists of an urban meadow as well as a 7 meter tall inaccessible concrete island to provie refuge for biodiversity. Biodiversity in the urban environment is one of the main focusses of Clement, and Parc Henri-Matisse is an early example of what Clément later described as ‘The Third Landscape’.
Concept The park itself consists primarily of a large lawn-like open space (a somewhat ironic feature, given Clément’s widely expressed antipathy towards
“Ile Deborence - An inaccessible islan for biodiversity” lawns) with a concrete island set prominently at its centre.
The lawn includes non-grass species to give the impression of an urban meadow. The Island - Île Deborence - is a 7 meter tall concrete structure that covers 2500 m2 - a completely inaccessible forest set in the middle of Parc Henri-Matisse. It is named after a fragment of primary forest in Switzerland that has stayed virtually intact over thousands of years because of its remote location. Île Deborence serves as a long-term refuge for urban biodiversity. The idea of the island is inspired by uncultivated ground, the reconstruction of a fragment of primary forest and the enhancement of urban biodiversity. Clemént has later described this concept as “the third landscape” which includes all those spaces that lie outside of cultivation or direct human use and are often important for the maintenance of biodiversity. The park itself includes several smaller patches of “wild nature”
around trees or paths. These smaller areas are only mowed intermittently to create refuges for wildlife.

The Jardin Des Géants is home to the last giants of Lille, and the park is divided into zones with different expressions.

Walking through the park, you enter by the Clouds Square, go through the Grass of the Giants, and finally end up in the Garden of Springs. Each zone enhances the lush vegetation in its own way. There are more than 65 000 plants representing over a hundred different species. The names encountered in the garden are poetic and dreamy : Misty Alley, Maze of Whispers… The real particularity of the garden are its gigantic constructions, especially the giant wicker heads.

Haute Deûle river bank, a sustainable district
The water garden, water managment and phytoremediation : Role of storage and of phytoremideator. Credit photo: Landzine and Bruel-Delmar
The development of the sustainable district of the banks of the Haute Deûle, associated to Euratechnologies TIC center, leans on recognition of water as an element of its foundation and its redevelopment but also on the memory of the past industrial times expressed in the news public spaces The presence of water is undeniable, as much in the history of this quarter as in its present-day configuration,despite a loss of recognition. The project for the banks of the Haute Deûle leans on the traces of this memory in order to apply itself to a continuity in the identity of inhabited places, and at the same time to revitalise this expression of federating water in the new development.
“Approaching a project, it’s approaching its relation to the specificity of the place”
The project brings the center of excellence Euratechnologies together with the public spaces that border it, the large lawn and the water garden in the south, the old dance hall and Bretagne Square to the north. An interactivity and a complementarity are created between the building dedicated to hitech companies and the public spaces open to the larger public.
A Sustainable district The water garden, which plays the role of storage and of phytoremideator, evolves with the rhythm of rain and becomes the emblematic place for this work with water. It’s vegetation improves every year and the natural seeds of young willow trees contribute to the establishment of a dynamic ecosystem. But its project also allows to connect different areas. The new raisable bridge crosses the Bras de Canteleu to ensure the link with the island of Bois Blancs and allows the waterway to rediscover the
central role that it must play in the organisation of the quarter The development of the banks of the Haute Deûle offers an extraordinary opportunity for the requalification of the public spaces of the Lomme Marsh and manages to allow a new quality of service without, however, depriving this quarter of the character and charm that resides in the proportions of the streets bordered with workers’ houses. The project also creates a new connection.

Musée du Louvre-Lens
“Musée du Louvre-Lens consider the whole site as a space, and connect through architecture and landscape architecture the inside and the outside. Picture by Hufton and Crow.”
Musée du Louvre-Lens is an art museum located in Lens, Northern France and displays objects from the collection of the Musée du Louvre in Paris. The location on Lens’ mining wasteland demonstrates an undertaking to rehabilitate and reverse the fortune of the drepressed mining community and reflects the continuing decentralization of French cultural institutions. In 2003, Jean-Jacques Aillagon, the then Minister for Culture and Communication, and Henri Loyrette, president of the Musée du Louvre, announced plans to create a regional branch of the Louvre. The president of the Nord-Pas de Calais region Daniel Percheron rapidly voiced his great interest in the project and undertook to provide solid support.
Location
The city of Lens offered a site of over 20 hectares in a former mine yard, closed in 1960. The site was ideal for the construction of a con-
temporary museum building with no constraints on design, as the Musée du Louvre wished. Its proximity to the train station, the absence of geotechnical issues, the esthetic quality of the landscape, and its location in the heart of a dense urban agglomeration were all key qualities that meant the site received an excellent technical report.
“the buildings achieve balance with the scale of the site and the shape of the paths and landscape features” Architecture
The Louvre-Lens encompasses four rectangular buildings around a central square building, much like the Louvre in Paris. The innermost square building is a transparent glass pavilion and also serves as the main entrance to the museum.
Sejima and Nishizawa describes the landscape: “In keeping with a desire to maintain the openness of the site and to reduce the ascendancy of this large project, the building was broken down into several spaces. Through their size and layout, which follow the gradual changes in terrain elevation, the buildings achieve balance with the scale of the site and the shape of the paths and landscape features, evoking its mining history.” The architects collaborated with landscape architect Catherine Mosbach to surround the buildings with gardens and pathways, while the museum’s exhibition spaces were designed by Studio Adrien Gardère. Much of the building’s exterior reciprocates a metallically glazed portrayal of the surrounding scenery and changing climate that interplay along the structure’s utmost subtle curvature

The lagooning in Harnes completes the wastewater purification process and provides high-quality water for a swimming pond. At the same time land from a derelict post-industrial site (a coal basin) are being utilized and reclaimed in a contemporary context. The client is Communauté d’Agglomération Communaupole de Lens-Liévin, Lens, Pas-de-Calais. The landscape architects are Agence Paysages, François-Xavier Mousquet, Lille. The project were completed in 2005. It covers an area of 100 hectares and the costs were 1,8 million euros. The lagooning in Harnes resulted from the coming together of a voluntarist – even avantgarde – mayor, Yvan Druon, Mayor of Harnes, and a sensitive and innovative landscape architect, François-Xavier Mousquet. In a square pit at the foot of a slagheap, the project consisted of creating a lagooning system for purifying wastewater through phyto-remediation. The challenge was to respond to the technical requirement (to continue the purification of wastewater that
was still impure after leaving the purification plant) while integrating the ecology at the bottom of the valley, the residents’ use of the site, the visibility of the project, and the project’s connection to other natural areas along the canal.
“There are species with beautiful flowers and fruits, as attractive for ecology as for the landscape.”
consistency for natural and converted sites evolved. The green belt (Trame verte) was defined as a regional planning tool to control urban development, to protect and develop biodiversity and to make a range of recreational areas available to the population, which was increasingly expressing its need for “nature”.
Today
The Harnes lagoon today reconciles technical efficiency with high-quality water as well as landscape and ecological qualities. Visionary representatives made it possible to think of the spatial and built heritage of the great coalmining era as a lever for development and positive identity today.
Historical context
From the early 1980s on, thanks to the mobilisation of considerable public funds, major portions of land were re-appropriated with two objectives in mind: the creation of zones for economic activity and of large recreational parks. From the 2000s on, with the creation of Mission Bassin Minier Nord – Pas de Calais, a strategic local task force in charge of sustainable urban, economic, social and cultural development, the objective of large-scale

Understanding the purification system
In order to understand the purification system, let us follow the progress of wastewater. Leaving the purification plant, the water is still full of minerals, the notorious nitrates which nobody needs but which are so good for vegetation. 1) Willow roots perform the first treatment. Planted in a gravel bed
with the mineral-rich water running through it, the roots absorb a maximum amount of fertilizer. By now the water is considerably lighter but still carries some nitrates and phosphates. 2) Bulrushes await the water in the second pool, where it is treated by the roots of aquatic plants. These absorb the minerals that feed the plants, which are later harvested for composting. There are species with beautiful
flowers and fruits, as attractive for ecology as for the landscape. 3) In these pools, the water is sucked up by wind turbines. They pump and eject it two metres higher, thus oxygenating the water and making it run down large concrete steps in a very thin layer exposed to ultraviolet rays. 4) Once back in another pool, the oxygenated and disinfected water continues its voyage among the roots of

aquatic plants. It moves slowly, taking over two weeks to travel from the beginning to the end of the pools. 5) Finally, the water crosses the former wastewater ditch of the plant via a “bridge-canal” and 6) slowly continues to its destination in the bathing pool(7).

Rabotpark
Cyclist and pedestrian path Picture A: An overhead view of the Gasmetersite, with Rabotpark in the lower right corner. The park was designed by Michael Desvigne, a landscape architect from Paris, France. The Rabotpark is divided into three strips: an allé of trees, a functional middle space, and a cycling and pedestrian path.
Rabotpark is a public park located in Gent, Belgium, and designed by Michael Desvigne from 2002-2007. Today, the site sits within an area of Gent that has been redeveloped in recent years. The park serves as a hub for activity and a connection point to many other places in the city.
Site Introduction
The Rabotpark is made up of three strips: on one side, there is an allé of trees, in the middle there is a functional area, and on the other side, there is a path for cyclists and pedestrians. The middle functional area of Rabotpark consists of a large grassy space that contains sports fields and a playground, which were added by the City of Gent after the original design had been made. On one end of the park, a three-part building used by different youth organizations. This strengthens the park as a meeting place for youngsters. The modern architecture of the building provides a transparency between the buildings
and the green areas (Picture 1a). Since most of the building is below ground level, the planted area surrounding it acts as a sort of green roof (Picture 1b). The path for cyclists and pedestrians that runs along the southeastern edge of Rabotpark leads to the Gaardeniersbrug, a cycling bridge that crosses the Verbindingskanaal (Picture 2). Rabotpark is located directly adjacent to the Gasmetersite, a former industrial site that was redeveloped in 2011 (Picture A). Formerly a polluted area, the Gasmetersite now holds apartments, including some designated as social housing, a kindergarten, and places for outdoor recreation. The whole site is part of the city of Gent’s master plan for the area. As a public green space, Rabotpark creates a stronger connection between the Gasmetersite and the inner city of Gent. Rabotpark also plays a part in connecting the neighborhoods of Rabot and Blaisantvest (Picture 3).

“A good caption tells the reader what is on the picture, but also helps telling the whole story. If you read the summary and all the captions you may grasp the main Central castle of the museum garden. (Wikipedia)
The Middelheim Open Air Sculpture Park in Antwerpen has been an art attraction since 1951, even though the oldest part of the park is over 150 years old. The area exhibits a large collection of sculptures, which are part of a large green area, free of charge and open to the public. The museum is part of a larger park named Nachtegalen Park. Middelheim specifically focuses on art exhibitions. Nachtegalen Park is formally divided into three parts; Vogelensang, Middelheim and Den Brandt. The city of Middelheim was historically a summer residence spot for wealthy families. Belgian aristocratic families governed the areas until 1910, when the town council purchased them. The park is located south of the Antwerpen City centre and is a popular picnic venue and recreation area. Middelheim is centred around a small castle, and has become an open-
air sculpture park, free of charge. Around 50 years ago the town council started gathering art, and today the park holds some 400 pieces. Apart from the castle, two pavilions were built. In 2012 the architect Paul Robrecht added the semi-open “Het Huis”, which simply means “The House” in Flemish. The Braem Pavilion holds art pieces of international value, and changes its exhibition twice annually. The layout of Middelheim Museum Park revolves around the Middelheim castle, surrounded by a moat. The sculptures are placed all around the park, with winding paths and strips of water along with them. Het Huis is located south-east of the castle, and The Braem Pavilion holds more fragile pieces of art at the northern-most part of the park.

Park Spoor Noord
“The 24 hectars land is owned by the Belgian National Railways Company (NMBS/ SNCB). This was a industrial site used for maintaining and restoring locomotives. SNCB stopped its activities in 2001.”
“The area is 16 km long 160 m wide in average.
It is located like a wedge between the densely built neighborhoods Scheldt and its hinterland. ”
“A number of the buildings have been reused for other purposes”
Architects park: Secchi and Viganò Client: City of Antwerp Program: public space Year: 2008/9 Size: 18 hectars
Park Spoor Noord is an old railway land that is transformed into a contemporary, sustainable and vast urban landscape with emphasis on green, light, space, recreation, culture and sports. In 2003 Bernardo Secchi & Paola Viganò won the international design competition for the new park. The winning design is called ‘Villages and Metropolis’ and is directed at two levels of scale: the local level
and the city / metropolitan level. The park was to become a garden to the neighbourhood and a park to the city. Park Spoor Noord is not a conventional park where green and nature development dominate, but it lies somewhere between a park and a neighbourhood square. The design is based on the terrain’s original shape and existing relief. The extensive stretch of grass and the planting of standard trees result in a vast, transparent landscape. The park’s spine is formed by a curvy cobblestone boulevard that is 10 to 20 metres wide. The use of black concrete for benches and paths at the edges and the entrances adds to the park’s coherence.
“The boulevard forms a spine to the park,.”

Eilandje and Kattendijk
Model overview of the whole site. Source: http://www.urbastyle.com/en/content/antwerpen-be/
Het Eilandje/Kattendijkdok is an area of the ancient port that was gradually abandoned into a dislocate area with small scattered points of activity. The area underwent an extensive urban renewal project. The master plan, sponsored by the city of Antwerp encompassing an area of 172 hectares, was developed in 2000 by Buro 5 Maastricht, which was selected following a competition. It was decided subsequently to divide the site into two phases: the first (75 ha), relating to the area closest to the center of the city. The second phase (97 ha), is on the outsider side of the site. The masterplan led to the creation of four papers that emerged from the
“How does the site function, has it’s history been forgotten” preliminary analysis. The operational part of the master plan is divided into a Quality Plan of Public Space (Beeld-
kwaliteitplan Buitenruimte) a Quality Plan for Architecture (Architectuur Beeldkwaliteitplan) a Plan of Green (Groenplan) and a Water Plan (Waterplan). The Plan of Green has been entrusted to the French landscape architect Michel Desvigne. The working hypothesis has been to put the green in a part of town which was historically paved hard impermeable surfaces, to transform a site with a strong industrial impact into a new urban place. The strategy for the landscape defined by Michel Desvigne is organized around two points: - The creation of small groups of trees, planting patterns that are close and regular, alternating with small clearings of soil creating a sort of new river landscape; - The spread of the Green focuses on two large oasis in the northeast section of the site from which branches of planting extend out into lines diffusing the green density. The plan is based on a strategy of in-
filtration that was able to structure and give hierarchy to urban spaces. The creation of new urban spaces along the banks of the old port have been developed, which are implementing technical intervention, patterns and specific models that define road alignments, the provision of parking spaces, patterns of plantings and trees along the avenues, the organization and the pace of neighborhood parks and the treatment of the materials of the project ground to guide the revegetation of the area.

Boekenberg Park
The main attraction created by the 2012 design of OMGEVING are the swimming pools and the corten steel pavilions. The form of the pavilions evoke images of the dramatic rock formations seen in 18th century paintings. (http://www.landezine.com/ 2015)
The historical castle park from the 18th century was renewed from a romantic English Garden by transforming the 20th century concrete pool into a forest pond merging gently into its surroundings. Boekenberg Park is located in South Deurne (Antwerp). The park is 10 acres and was built around 1800. The tower and the cave complex have been preserved and are home to the Natural History Museum and a speleological (the study of caves) foundation. The park contains a swimming pond from 2007, a playground which was renewed in 2012 by Belgian OMGEVING landscape architect firm and the Museum of Natural History. The swimming pond was the first ecological swimming pool in Belgium and the largest in Europe. Special soil material and a constructed wetland consisting of more than 22,000 plants purify the water in a natural way. The playground was divided into four different play areas; there is a landscape for every age group. This
four-part structure is a continuation of the division of the former castle.
History and restoration
The outdated facilities had breached modern health and safety regulations, and after a discussion of restoration, the city and architects decided to rehabilitate. As with most projects in Europe, the historical uses of the site played a major role in the direction of the design. During the 16th and 18th centuries, the area served as a holiday retreat for families. Between 1752 and the beginning of the first world war, the park’s gold period resulted in rococo style developments with English gardens commissioned prominent owners. During the 20th century, a gradual degradation caused by short-sighted updates occurred before acquiring natural heritage status in 1974. Since then, a period of revitalization commenced.
northern edge as well as the encompassing romantic landscape. The water body’s location mediates a forest from a grassland to the west. Ecological water treatment ensures the quality is up to par with local regulations. The contents of the once bright blue man-made pool have been transformed into a natural and mossy swimming lagoon with patches of reeds.
The center piece of the plan are a series of corten steel pavilions to house the changing and restroom facilities for the swimming pool. Evoking rock formations, earthen tones surface the three structures with slanted rooflines. Greenery on the roofs offer a resolved prospect from the neighboring apartments. A bridge brings visitors towards the building gateway, with a continued path as an option to leave the park. Upon entering the complex, the axial arrangement is revealed and a secondary pathway leads to the changing rooms, showers and pool. Minimal constructions and maintenance of the open space gives the community a place to occupy in their own way. (http://www.arcspace.com/features/omgeving/boekenberg-park/)

Wadi Youth Hostel
Wadi Youth Hostel floorplan // A plan drawing of the hostel as a circular building placed in a natural forest setting
Project: Wadi Youth Hostel Architects: By Studio Associato Bernardo Secchi Paola Viganò Italien Paulo Viganó, architect (1961) and Bernando Secchi professor Venuzia (19342014) Design Team: Uberto degli Uberti, Tommaso Fait, Steven Geeraert, Emmanuel Giannotti, Stefano Peluso, Günter Pusch Year: Won international competition in 2007. Projects finished in 2013 Place: Belgium, Antwerpen, Kasterlee Area: 952.0 sqm
Introduction
The Wadi hostel is the winning design of the first part of the ‘Contact Strip’ international competition and is an important step in the implementation of the Hoge Rielen Master Plan. The O-shaped “Hostel Wadi” encircles part of the pine forest, retained as a memento of a disappearing artificial
landscape that is rapidly transforming into broadleaf vegetation. A circular, ever variable winter garden towards the pine forest acts as a space of appropriation and continuity between interior and exterior, between groups and the individual. The architecture explores relationships and shared space: the enjoyment of the view occurs on a collective terrain. The site was originially a Royal Navy military ammunition depot during the Second World War. The landscape contains shelters, embankments and protective basins in a forest planted to provide timber to the surrounding metallurgical plants. After the war, the 300 hectares site was transformed into an educational center for young people and a camping area.
Concept
Behind every project lies a specific interpretation and conceptualization of the territory. The Master Plan distinguishes and combines three fundamental landscapes: the natural, the military and the educational

“The hostel forms a unit with the three landscapes; it is an architecture landscape.” landscapes. The hostel forms a unit with the three landscapes; it is an architecture-landscape. Entirely made of wood, a continuous and sequential development of rooms creates a central inner space comprising a circumscribed and contained naturalness. The building can be seen as a delayed outcome of late nineteenth and early twentieth-century European reform movements: highly ideological and resplendent with notions of community and collectiveness. Yet the untouched, central, inner pine forest is ambivalent. The space reflects both a desire for a group experience (How to Live Together by Roland Barthes), simultaneously alluding to the impossibility of reproducing these qualities in our atomised and culturally diverse society, while at the same time suggesting informal appropriation.
