ORGANOPONICO PASTORITA CHARACTERISTICS CIENFUEGOS

This site is discovered from above, from private apartments or from shared terraces of an adjoining school.

Recycled five meter long precast concrete beams enclose planting beds and articulate topographical changes, thus defining territories and edges. This landscape, currently a visual resource, could become a physical resource if overlaid with publicly accessible paths and spaces, increasing the variety of occupation.
