DYNAMIC RESILIENCEA Symbiotic Relationship between Nature and City

LANDSCAPE FROM ABOVEThe River as a System

“When I arrive in a city, I climb the highest steeple or tower to

have a view of the whole before seeing the individual parts, and

when I leave I do the same in order to fix my ideas.”(Montesquieu, 1971)

Two opposing forces: their tension generates balance

MANAGING RESILIENCEToolkit

Resilience toolkit:

1. Reefballs for island and riverbank protection

and creation/strengthening of riparian

vegetation.

2. Sloping edge with riprap/rubble.

3. Stepped edge with retaining rope gabion walls

with integrated pedestrian path.

4. Suspended pedestrian bridges to guarantee

connection between opposing river banks and

the island and the city.

5. Small islands for slowing and managing river

water flow.

6. Natural pools for water overflow storage.
