SPATIAL DEVELOPMENT MODEL - SYMBIOSIS
CREATING A RESILIENT TERRITORY
The natural settings of Astrakhan Agglomeration
are some of the most unique. The area is
characterized by strong diversity and contrast. The
development principle is proposing to capitalize
on this resource and make it a major component
of the agglomeration identity.
It is important that key strategic and valuable
areas are protected and enhanced through
ecologic solutions. There are a series of unique
areas hot spots areas at the intersection of the
different landscape units, also in the proximity of
an important settlement.
and
and
These areas represent key areas to be protected
from the anthropogenic activity
transformation, creating a sustainable
ecologic relation between the natural
environment and the build environment. The
settlements are proposed to be surrounded by
strategically placed green belts, allowing for
creating α more dense and compact
development and also creating an improved
micro-climate and a more balanced and
ecologic territorial system.
The natural environment represents a powerful
resource that enables the new economic
transition, through ecologic production and
experimental tourism. The natural systems are
proposed to be connecting through a system of
macro-ecological corridors. Another aspect of
great value is the link between the macro green
and blue infrastructure and the new improved
green and blue urban infrastructure developed
through nature-based solutions.
