“Østmarka Therapeutical Landscapes” is a gentle urban refill that uses the existing ecological and natural qualities as key design drivers.

Today Østmarka occupies a strategic and prominent position in Lade that offers unparalleled scenic qualities, inspiring views of the fjords and a rich biodiversity. Building on these unique attributes, ‘Østmarka Therapeutical Landscapes’ seeks to unlock their potential and make them accessible, valuable, and cherished by the present and future human or non-human inhabitants of Lade.

In particular, the project tries to approach the landscape as a transformative element, capable of providing therapeutic, recreational, and meditative experiences, while encouraging the coexistence of diverse species.To detail this vision, we propose three distinct phases: nature for all!, recreation and care, life and community.
