The proposal for the land conversion next to the Bayrischer Bahnhof, in Leipzig, forms a distinctive landscape. The characteristically industrial area is interpreted as “wilderness” and pulled into the city. The ecological and infrastructural centre is framed in several ways: a programmed park boundary (the binding edge), the structural layout of the park-row (fragmented small-scale buildings), followed by block development. These permeable layers form a variety of visual and physical connections to the park.
