Landscape study of the passeig dels Guíxols in Sant Feliu de Guíxols.

The present study of landscape is connected to the project of an underground parking in the Passeig dels Guíxols realised for the City council of Saint Feliu de Guíxols.
Due to the fact that it is a space where has lost the connection and continuity of the city with the beach, the study proposes an analysis of the different elements that define the field of the Maritime Walk, how are his limits, the existent vegetation and the uses and activities that give in him. The analysis proposes a critical look that allows doing a review of the elements studied, with the purpose of detecting his values and weaknesses.
And more, it made an historical analysis through the review of ancient images that allow to understand the transformation and evolution of the Walk and specifically of the Juli Garreta Garden, which is one of the singular pieces of the place.
The detection of 4 existent fields in the Walk allow to realise a diagnosis and next a proposal of improvements for everyone of them. Without losing the look on the whole and the relation of each piece with the rest, it proposes the breakdown of everyone of them in layers. The objective is to understand the possible actions to the surface level and his elements and programs related, as well as understand the possible improvements that would allow the work with the vegetation and the shadow in the place.
