Due to the train station being part-ly deconstructed TERRANOVA is able to develop a grand pub-lic space in between the densely built old town of Lindau, Germa-ny, and new residential area. Being a narrow ring around the town the classic public park sys-tem gets complemented with a new system that crosses the island from north to south and opens the view to the Lake Con-stance. The urban concept con-nects the town visually and phy-sically to the water and thereby to its greatest attraction: the island character.This happens trough a big pla-za-like park in the south and an urban beach spreading over the railway embankment in the north. Here the potential of one of the most beautiful views gets taped: looking west all across the lake.

- public space Lindau. Concept for landscape architectural development of an insular town.

by Judith Schweizer, Technical University of Munich

TERRANOVA playfully deals with different levels of height, chan-ging views and atmospheres, sun and shadow, warmth and cold of different surfaces and lets the vi-sitor decide how he wants to use the space. This way TERRANO-VA is park, plaza, playground, sports ground, promenade, bus lane and stage in one. The new or reused buildings of harbour, train station and the new residential quarter are leading the visitors and thereby connecting the space “that lays in between things” to the town around it. With its flexibility TERRANOVA offers solutions for questions of tourism, urban development and the big problem of traffic that Lindau faces. It offers the space for positive development now and for the unknown alternative mobility concepts of the future.
