Perspectives urbaines et écologiques. Le territoire de l’Expo 2008 Saragosse
2013
Les villes fluviales, aujourd’hui confrontées à la rénovation des berges et des espaces attenants, ont pris conscience de leur intérêt à tirer parti de cet élément naturel, constitutif de leur territoire, participant de leur identité mais aussi vecteur de développement. Cette nouvelle sensibilité vers un environnement de qualité s’appuie aux notions d’écologie et de développement durable qui accompagnent la plupart des projets autour du fleuve. Cohérente avec l’importance actuelle concédée à l’impact et à l’héritage apprenant de cette expérience, interprétant le milieu, Saragosse a proposé une Exposition dont la principale vertu réside dans son échelle, dans son dialogue avec l’Ebre et d’au…
Las grandes Exposiciones en Europa: 1992-2002. Efectos duraderos sobre la ciudad y apropiación por parte de la ciudadanía.
2012
This paper studies the influence of great contemporary Expositions on the transformation of cities and of territories, developing some aspects we consider relevant of these events: their growing relevance in urban contemporary politics and the urban and architectural project as creator of the regeneration of abandoned or obsolete areas. Against the short duration of these events, the positive and negative effects, like the definition of new urban and territorial domains, the modernization of infrastructures and services, the impulse of private stakeholders toward building lands and the consolidation of City-Brand in tourism nets among others, have a much longer duration, and depend on the u…
LA ARQUITECTURA DE LOS PABELLONES EXPOSITIVOS: REPRESENTACIÓN IDEOLÓGICA DEL RÉGIMEN
2014
Las Exposiciones son el reflexo de la voluntad política de demonstrar la capacidad de llevar a cumplimiento tanto operaciones emblemáticas y reales como lugares imaginarios de utopías posibles. A partir de la Exposición de París de 1867 se invitan los países participantes a construir un edificio que represente su carácter nacional, hecho que impulsa un cambio sustancial en la historia de las Exposiciones: los pabellones concebidos antes como contenedores, adquieren mayor importancia que los objetos e inventos que se exponen en sus interiores. Encontramos en este hecho un camino de ida y vuelta, la identidad nacional impulsa un determinado lenguaje para la construcción de estos edificios, qu…
Le paysage durable de l’événement. L’héritage de Expo 2008 Saragosse

Les villes fluviales, aujourd’hui confrontées à la rénovation des berges et des espaces attenants, ont pris conscience de leur intérêt à tirer parti de cet élément naturel, constitutif de leur territoire, participant de leur identité mais aussi vecteur de développement. Cette nouvelle sensibilité vers un environnement de qualité s’appuie aux notions d’écologie et de développement durable qui accompagnent la plupart des projets autour du fleuve. Cohérente avec l’importance actuelle concédée à l’impact et à l’héritage urbain de l’événement, apprenant de l’expérience récente d’autres événements, Saragosse a réalisée une Expo dont la principale vertu réside dans son échelle, dans son dialogue a…
A METROPOLITAN PARK OF WATER
2017
For three decades, numerous urban renewal projects have involved European cities located on rivers, demonstrating how an interpretation of the urban and peri-urban areas is related to questions about high-quality ecological development and environmental sustainability. This report places the majority of large projects involving river cities among new environmental practices, usually adhered to for large events which are seen as tools for transforming the land and the image of the host city. In this context, cities near rivers are increasingly aware of the natural environment which shapes the identity of a place and which requires ordinary and extraordinary renewal projects. This is the fram…
A mobile application for assessment of air pollution exposure
