Institutions: Eix Immobiliari SA, Spain; UIC Barcelona, Spain

Years: 2009 – 2010

Researchers: Mar Aguilera, Cristina Alegre, Alvaro Cuéllar, Carmen Mendoza (PI)

The regional structural analysis applied in this project is based on the physical and spatial organisation of Encamp, as well as its economic activities and open spaces. The project offers a positive framework for steering Encamp’s future urban growth by introducing an alternative model that recognises the pre-existing physical and natural assets of the area and reinforces them through specific urban strategies. The value of Encamp’s landscape and its strategic position in the regional structure of Andorra are the basis for strategies at all levels of intervention.
