After completing a transversal analysis of the city, a diagnosis is elaborated by overlaying the mapped information. The result is the proposal of a strategic vision for a global understanding of the future of the city.
This strategic vision is developed through three urban systems that draw a global vision for the whole city: the hydrological system, the vegetation system and the mobility system.
As per the previous analysis, the strategic vision starts through the understanding of water as an opportunity for reformulating the future of the city and for shaping a system of high quality public space for the entire city. Water has now a main role in the public space of Quilmes, structuring the public space of the city, managing floods and solving rainfall drainage.
A new system of public spaces is created through the relation of the vegetation system and the hydrological system. The improvement of water quality provides a new understanding of water amongst citizenship and favors the association between green open spaces and water spaces, that are frequently shared between neighbors and water during floods and heavy rainfall events.
At the same time the reorganization of the mobility system through new hierarchies helps integrate a green grid within the entire city, creating the opportunity for consolidating slow mobility corridors.
In order to complete the vision for the entire city a close approach to the riverside is carefully developed at the same time, reformulating the riverside of Quilmes as a new Riverine City. A system of berms and hydraulic protections make future building developments possible and keep the city safe from floods.
