Aigua Sana

Urban intervention reimagining the city by using water as a constructive material, creating a new urban identity and reinforcing the vision that alternative contemporary cities are possible.

Cities are home to people, not just industrial production. From a purely environmental sustainability point of view, cities must become permeable and porous again. Allow the water to flow and absorb the soil without overheating the sun. Cities need to return to the earth and water instead of hard asphalt.

A new approach to the urban model is proposed: one that places people at the centre of decision-making and takes into account the variety of experiences that happen every day in cities. This new urban model is embodied in a city of care, a place that cares for people and their environment and allows them to care for themselves and for others.

Aigua Sana will be a new method to think about the design process when making cities, that re- discovers the dynamic spirit of water, offering new uses and functions in public spaces that guaran- tee the sustainability of the urban model and the ecological connection of the spot.

As a new way to perceive water, perception and collective imagination are restored, reconnecting with nature.
