Idea projektu

The urban intervention will take place in The Bhar Zebla District , a district that opens directly to the sea of the city of Sousse , located in the center east of Tunisia , but is reffered to by local citizens as a polluted and repulsive area where garbage takes over all the place and sea . The pollution affects both people and place without green spaces or entertainement areas .

The idea consists in the creation of an ecological axis that connects Avenue Habib Bourguiba , the major urban axis of the city of Sousse , to Bhar Zebla District by the pedestrianisation of the two peripheral roads of the axis which spread over the entire ecological corridor and connect the Avenue to the sea through Bhar Zebla District as an attempt of reconciliation with the history of the district.

The project attempts to establish a direct pedestrian connection between the city and its sea through greenery and the introduction of missing programs in the city of Sousse in order to promote urbain sastainability and reduce the harmful impact of pollution on both people and environnement while enhancing the overall well-being on both place and people : More greenery , More program.

Popis projektu

The ecological corridor will begin with a suspended cultural center then a free consumption and entertainement area in the open air with light metalic structures . The consumption space will be served on both sides by the environmental awareness centre and the coworking space that house a ground floor restaurant while introducing greenery to the urban planning strategies in Tunisia.
The greenery continues to the seafront where playground areas are offered to visitors .
The green corridor offers overall flexible spaces that adapt to the needs of the local citizens and ensures their well-being while perserving the environnement by reducing the risks of pollution.

Technické informace

The materials used for this project are locally sourced materials in an attempt to reduce the carbon footprint of the project and promoting the use of local materials instead of importing them outside the region.
The choice of the light metallic structures is an environmentally friendly choice along with the choice for the urban furniture to be made of recycled material.
