Restoration project of Tudela-Culip spot in Cap de Creus natural park Progetto di restauro paesaggistico di Tudela-Culip nel parco naturale del Cap de Creus

Project Statement This project is a showcase for landscape driven nature restoration projects. It turns a demolition order, a purely and strictly habitat reclamation, into a creative landscape restoration development.

Through necessarily inexpensive actions, the design skilfully construes and orchestrates the deconstruction as a combination of destruction and construction to celebrate the site’s peculiarities, both natural and cultural. It proposes ways to choreograph on-site visitors into a narrative that stimulates the culture in nature in an innovative approach to finally question whether erasing and voiding is just as valid as filling in and adding.

Project Narrative Precedents In 196, Club Med was constructed on the eastern tip of the Iberian Peninsula in one of the windiest and most northern exposed corners of the nation. Club Med was constructed as a private holiday village with 400 rooms that accommodated around 900 visitors in summertime. Life at Club Med was primitive, and meant to foster a relationship with nature. The settlement project is considered to be one of the most notorious examples of modern movement settlement in the Mediterranean coast.

With the rise of democracy and ecological conservation, Cap de Creus was declared a Natural Park in 1998.

The cape, including the Club Med surroundings, was given the highest level of land protection because of its outstanding geological and botanical value.

In the summer of 2003 Club Med was permanently closed, and in 2005, the 200 ha of property was acquired by the Spanish Ministry of Environment and a restoration project was active during 2005 and 2007.

In 2009-10, the Club Med settlement was ‘deconstructed’, its ecological dynamics revived and an innovative public use landscape project was begun for its rediscovery.

Ensemble In turn, the work became the Mediterranean´s coast biggest deconstruction & restoration project ever.

Mission & intent.

From nature reclamation to landscape restoration The Natural Park’s Management Plan, Action 2.9 rules: ‘The total deconstruction and comprehensive elimination of all construction, building and installations in this area and the ecological restoration of the effected land, with the species and communities characteristic of the altered environment.

The objective was to turn a ‘straight’ and strict restoration order into a ‘landscape’ narrative project in the intent to monumentalize it.

The goal meant finding the means to absorb the growing pressure of visitors from the nearby Cape Lightower, which receives a quarter million visitors per year, while also exploring new ways of choreographing ‘on site’ visitors with the intent of submerging them in the landscape´s multilayered polyphony.
