RIVER FLOW

01River Flow

The scenario where the bridge is supporting thewater flow. The intensity of water fills up the river bed

and floods the wetlands. The river brings eluviationsuch as soils and pebbles.


24/35


SEDIMENTS DEPOSITION

02Sediments Depositions

Because of the eluviation the river deposits onthe bridge pylons sediments that create smaller

compositions of land.


25/35


NATURAL ADDITION LANDSCAPE

03Natural Addition Landscape

With the passing of time the deposition of sedimentswill augment and cause a natural growth of wild

vegetation. Such a way there will be a naturaladdition of the landscape.

03Defining the edgeThe circle sews upthe city of Berat withthe island by a new

riverfront.

04New connectionsThe circle generates anew flows system alongthe riverfront and inside
