Idea projektu

The aim of this research is to examine the role of architecture in the process of recultivation of landfills, and could recultivation itself be improved by introducing architecture in this process. This project propose ways to tie urban waste infrastructure and public amenities together through the merging of architecture and landscape to create new avenues for public engagement with waste processes.

Popis projektu

Landfill Vinca is the largest landfill in Serbia. It's non-sanitary landfill with no systems for degasification or collecting leachates. It represents huge ecological problem in our country because of air, ground and water pollution in settlement Vinca and in Belgrade also (capital city).

Concept of my work is to use process of recultivation and infrastructure systems as an architecture tool for improving process itself. Aim of his project is to use infrastructure system for degasification and collecting leachates as infrastructure for architecture project.

Final step of this process is forming research fields for agriculture in high pollution conditions. This agricultural park will be an educational park as well, raising awareness of pollution problems.

Technické informace

Concrete structural elements are designed as main part of collecting leachates system and main structural element that carries pedestrian path and technical roads of park. Whole structure must have pile foundation because of ground level is dropping by years as a consequence of degasification process.

There are 5 types of them formed in order to respond to different slopes and number of greenshouses with plants in different areas of park. This project has several implementation phases and entire process should take about 50 years. At the beginning structure will be placed only on slope but as process of recultivation progressing, structure of paths and greenhouses will occupy whole area of landfill.
