Description
Water and greenery are essential for the design of public spaces in city centers and neighborhoods, supporting social, retail, and recreational activities. This requires freeing up space by using existing buildings more efficiently and reducing car traffic, which leads to more opportunities for greening. In addition, climate adaptation is necessary, such as greening gardens, parks, and roofs.
