BCNecologia: 20 Years of the Urban Ecology Agency of Barcelona -9786079489878

描述

BCNecologia has played a key role in defining a new urban model for Barcelona – a model that has placed the city at the forefront of worldwide urban transformations – by designing a superblock and orthogonal bus network strategy for the Catalan capital. Thanks to the Agency, ecology was incorporated into urban planning in the early twenty-first century and changed the way we make cities, approach urban planning, and perceive mobility.

BCNecologia. 20 years of the Urban Ecology Agency of Barcelona looks back at over one hundred projects carried out by the Agency for a number of metropolises all over the planet. These studies are presented through a tree with five themed branches, which summarise the institution’s areas of activity and how its knowledge is developed from the roots up. These branches describe various sustainability indicators, superblock-based urban regeneration plans, new mobility and public space planning models, and environmental and circular economy-oriented proposals.
