In collaboration with TEN Arquitectos, as the first phase of their master plan for Villahermosa, we are providing complete landscape design to revitalize this important place in the city. Located at the intersection of two lagoons, the design transforms this juncture into a new civic gathering place and gateway. A new sinuous pedestrian pathway, bringing together nature and the city, traverses proposed wetlands, piazzas, and parks to link city amenities on either side of Paseo Tabasco in a promenade for tourists and residents alike. The project weaves the ecologic restoration of the lagoon edges and the larger story of the regional ecology into a new program and design for the place. The project is scheduled to open in September, 2010.
