[SCALAE] “Traces, Traces, Fragments…of Architecture” Capsule: Landscape Restoration of the Vall d’en Joan Landfill, Garraf, Barcelona · batlleiroig https://scalae.net https://scalae.net/trazastrozos/garra... Natural Regeneration An explanation, by Enric Batlle (batlleiroig), of the general outlines of the project and its successive phases for the landscape restoration of the Vall d’en Joan landfill in Garraf, Barcelona. The account details the essential features of the operation and the system used to precisely evaluate two significant aspects/fragments: the evolution of the glossary of terms related to the natural landscape and the cross-section of the territory. The explanation saves some surprises for its final section, referencing some significant and surprising "pluses" regarding what the versatility of the architect's profession proposes, projects, and resolves in situations far removed from conventional building or urban planning. The result: landscape, situation, and process, which, in their re-naturalized state, remain open to new avatars, actors, and situations in the continuity of their evolution… natural and artificial, forever linked; a non-place once toxic even to vermin, pure urban waste, recovered as a place where native fauna and vegetation now find a revitalized natural haven. Humans too. The series "Traces, Snippets, Pieces... of Architecture," which periodically presents "capsules"—video documentaries about extraordinary architecture of undeniable contemporary relevance—that reveal the design and construction processes and procedures of architects, in the voices of the architects themselves, is an initiative supported by the Editorial-Industrial Council of SCALAE 2024: CRICURSA, LAMP, GEZE, COSENTINO, FIGUERAS, JANSEN, BANDALUX, and ROCA.
