Het Land van Wild Information
Feed Overview

    During Quater 4 in 2024, as part of our master studies at TU Delft, we worked on this project called 'Scenes in Stadspark West'. This interdisciplinary studio was led by Saskia de Wit and Mônica Veras Morais and consisted of 11 students from the Master's programmes in Landscape Architecture, Architecture and Urbanism at TU Delft.

    As part of our project, we analysed interstitial spaces through the lenses of time, transition and traces. Over the course of two months we visited and immersed ourselves in the area, uncovering values that are not easily perceived by those outside the community of Stadspark West. We developed a spatial intervention on site, accompanied by a vision that shows potential futures for this area from a landscape design point of view. During this process we came up with a new name for the area: Wildwijk - a wild but cohesive neighbourhood.

Analysis Time    Within the same period, we looked at Stadspark Westtrough the lense of time, exploring it on different daysand at various times, in both sunny and rainy weather. Our observations revealed that different areas of the park facilitate different uses depending on the time and conditions. For instance, the boxing tunnel provides a sheltered space where various communities can train regardless of the weather. In contrast, the storks nest polder becomes completely dark at night, creating a tranquil environment for animals to rest. This dynamic usage underscores the park's versatility and its ability to cater to diverse needs throughout the day and across different weather conditions.
