Vintém Park responds to the complexities of an urban landscape shaped by rivers and unique biomes. The proposal builds upon a site designated for development, which had been previously cleared to make way for roads. This existing condition informed our design approach, shaping the project’s integration with the landscape and its ecological restoration.

Our multidisciplinary team conducted a comprehensive analysis to identify the site’s potential. To support local ecotourism, we proposed walking and cycling trails, alongside key public infrastructure such as a convention centre, a tree nursery, and rest areas along the routes. We also planned the creation and revitalisation of natural bathing spots, applying contemporary hydrological modelling to ensure their sustainability.

Our design extends beyond recreational spaces, actively restoring the environment. We integrated architecture and nature to shape the project’s identity. By using local resources we aimed to learn from the existing landscape.
