Botanical Walk Footbridge

Mourao  - Portugal

The riverside of the Alqueva lake is a line that is moving many times in a year. A few years ago a dam was built and in 10 years, the ecosystem has completely changed

 

It suffers from many changes during the year about and this creates a fluctuating morphology along the shores of the lake.  

 

The project works with these constant changes. With a walkway, the water becomes the subject of architecture in motion, with the creation of spaces in continuous movement.

 

This allows the creation of crops of various types depending on the distance from the water.
