Park project on the right bank, facing the dense historical city on the left bank. On the edge of river bank, the industrial strips are replaced by the plantations as they are released. Thus, parc aux Angéliques forms a thick vegetal front on the Garonne, which contrasts with the 'stone city' opposite

Michel Desvigne - LE PARC AUX ANGELIQUES - Bordeaux, France, 2012
The ﬂuvial landscape before the redevelopment project : The programmed end of industrial and port activities gradually released a very vast territory, still in disinheritance in 2003. n the part purchased by the City, a park is being installed that is not 'pretty'. It is a quasi-forest device, implanted on both sides of a large preserved paved road. Paths perpendicular to the Garonne River, bordered by poplars, open up perspectives on ﬂeuve, on the protected riverbank bordering it, and on the city.

The artificial island used to be crisscrossed by water pits belonging to the former Renault factory. These pils are now remembered by the sunken gardens. Several learning gardens and a series of information panels allow visitors to know the key issues of the intervention. Playgrounds are located in the middle of the park and are especially protected. Toys imitate construction tool.

Jordi Bellmunt - REUS CAMPUS - Reus, Spain, 2019
The university campus of Bellissens lies on the agricultural area of the old Mas Vila de Barberà farm, a historical asset of the city of Reus, currently the seat of the university's rectorate. The landscape proposal, designed in the first phase, lays the foundations for the future urbanization of the area, according to an approach that provides for an integrated design-management-maintenance model.

Jordi Bellmunt - REUS CAMPUS - Reus, Spain, 2019
By recovering the identity of the place, the aim is to create a dynamic landscape, at the service of different users, which will ensure maximum comfort (behavioral and ethological) and a better interrelation between people and the surrounding environment.

Jordi Bellmunt - REUS CAMPUS - Reus, Spain, 2019
Following a timed implementation program, over a period of 10 years, the proposal provides for the gradual transformation of the place where university buildings and equipment will be implemented. Starting from the existing agricultural structure, a new landscape is therefore configured which will develop over time, in a sustainable and efficient way.

Jordi Bellmunt - PLATJA LARGA - Salou, Tarragona, Spain, 2020
On a stretch of coast equal to about one kilometer, the arrival point of the theme park on the coast, the proposal provides for the recovery of the primeval image of the place characterized by an extremely degraded dune system due to the installation of a campsite.

Jordi Bellmunt - PLATJA LARGA - Salou, Tarragona, Spain, 2020
The waterfront among trees, belvedere, spaces for contemplation, meeting points, has kept as its main criterion the conservation of the natural wealth of the site, the desire to make nature feel around and convert the waterfront into a place with spatial and environmental quality. The proposal adapts to the orography of the place and its characteristics, and defines a project that is the result of dialogue and creative will together with the potential of an unusual place.

Jordi Bellmunt - PLATJA LARGA - Salou, Tarragona, Spain, 2019
The Salou Platja Llarga project deals with the theme of Landscape in relation to Tourism. The intervention therefore concerns a transversal system, a limiting element, markedly parallel to the coast in the city of Salou about 120 km south of Barcelona, a predominantly tourist city. The waterfront is part of a global project to redefine the coast along the city of Salou, ensuring continuity and accessibility to all points of the territory.

Jordi Bellmunt - SANTA COLOMA DE GRAMENET - Metropolitan Area of Barcelona, Spain, 2016 - 2019
These projects are an example of how small projects can improve the quality of life of many people and bring colour to places that did not expect it. Creating landscapes in a sterile medium, creating life where there is only mistrust, generating security where there is mistrust, creating joy in a sad world.

Big Map and section.Enhancements to the LA River corridor require a fitting of community needs and opportunities with the varied conditions found along the river while not compromising the river’s role in flood risk management. The Master Plan combines many of the existing design proposals from past and ongoing planning efforts with new approaches that consider today’s unique social and environmental challenges.

Greenhouse growth trial. The Soil-less Soil project aims to divert one of the region’s largest, most expensive waste streams—glass—into a rapidly reusable local component of urban soil blends. xxxxx By ending the need to disruptively mine sand from pits throughout the region, this project will both close a major regional waste loop and reduce the peri-urban development pressures that accompany this extractive industries.

Richard Weller - WORLD PARK PROJECT, on going
The ‘World Park’ is a global initiative to ecologically restore land in the world’s biological hotspots and join these lands together into a continuous public park system. The World Park protects biodiversity, provides ecosystem services, creates jobs and offers potentially transformative personal experiences for those who work on its restoration projects or walk its trails.
