Royal Canal

Status: Competition
Year: 2005
Location: Dublin
Republic of Ireland

It was decided to structure the project based on the reformulation of the canal and its borders, considered as the fundamental axis that organizes the different urban spaces. The proposal is synthesized in the interaction of interchangeable, floating and mobile elements, located in the canal areas, generating a unique park of strong character and versatility. Its structure is based on small modules, some fixed and others mobile, arranged along the banks like train cars, reinterpreting the DNA chain to give a collective character to the park object. The multiplicity of options and combinations that arise allow for variations in its configuration, adapting to the evolution of the city over time.
