Continuous Hydrology - Moving Along The Water's Edge
Description
Hovseter valley is part of comprehensive system of open spaces that are instrumental to the spatial and functional quality of Oslo. The project interpret the river valleys as a park: a material, physical space (of land and water flows to manage), a social space (of conflicts among actors/activities to solve), a cultural space (of ethic and aesthetic values to preserve), a political space (of land use rules to define), a public space (of freedom of expression to ensure). The water system is key component of the valley-park. Goal of the diploma project is re-organising the water system as comprehensive visible landscape devise looking for win-win combinations between water flows, activities, and actors in the area.
