Designing in Harmony with Nature: Architecture in Urban Wetlands and the Pursuit of Territorial Well-BeingSave this picture!Santuario de la Naturaleza Humedal Ro Maipo. Image Cortesa de Fundacin CosmosWhat does it mean to design while considering the rhythms and cycles of nature? What social relationships and connections with the natural environment can cities foster today and in the future? In the face of a triple environmental crisis driven by climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution, along with zoonotic pandemics, increasing mental and emotional health issues, and digital hyperconnectivity, Fundacin Cosmos proposes to explore learnings, experiences, and tools aimed at connecting people with their territories. Through nature-based urban planning, the intervention in urban wetlands presents an opportunity to enhance, learn from, and conserve natural and cultural heritage in pursuit of a sustainable and resilient future.Over the years, human beings have settled in different environments according to the natural characteristics of the territories in search of prosperity. Access to water, soil quality, natural resources, and scenic beauty have undoubtedly influenced community decision-making. While it is widely acknowledged that humans rely on natural systems for essential resources such as water, food, and raw materials, merely being connected to nature also serves crucial functions and offers, moreover, significant benefits. While forests and oceans act as carbon sinks and regulate local climates, wetlands, and riparian vegetation help prevent and mitigate flood risks. In turn, plants act as filters for air pollutants, further contributing to countless medicinal compounds production.Save this picture!Various studies have shown that contact with nature can reduce stress, improve cognitive function, lower the risk of chronic diseases, strengthen the immune system, and promote social and community connections, significantly impacting mental, physical, and social well-being. For example, the study View Through a Window May Influence Recovery from Surgery by Roger Ulrich examined the relationship between hospital recovery times, the use of pain medication, and exposure to nature through a window. The results demonstrated that patients with views of nature recovered more quickly, required less pain medication, and experienced fewer post-surgery complications than those whose rooms faced a brick wall. Recognizing the healing power of natural spaces, Fundacin Cosmos has worked on designing more than 30 Healing and Therapeutic Gardens in hospitals and healthcare residences. Related Article Healing Gardens: Nature as Therapy in Hospitals Save this picture!Now, landscape architecture has the ability to shape the dynamic network of ecosystems and land uses that define territories. Drawing inspiration from nature and placing it at the forefront of spatial creation, infrastructures can serve as tools to enhance its benefits and act as bridges between human development and biodiversity conservation. As highlighted in the book "Learnings for Territorial Well-being" by Fundacin Cosmos, structures such as viewpoints, walkways, and trails provide strategic observation points that enrich visitors' experiences by allowing them to contemplate and appreciate the beauty of ecosystems without disturbing biodiversity. Walkways facilitate access to wetlands, democratizing natural spaces for children, older adults, and people with disabilities. Additionally, they help prevent soil degradation, allowing for the free movement of wildlife and the propagation of flora and fungi beneath them. Notably, their elevated construction is resilient to the dynamic nature of wetlands, as river and estuary waters rise and fall beneath the walkways, depending on fluctuating water levels influenced by rainfall, storm surges, and droughts.Save this picture!But what role do urban wetlands play in ecosystems and people's lives? How is it possible to project architecture over them? Considered priority ecosystems, wetlands are highly productive environments with rich biodiversity and a significant capacity for capturing and storing carbon. These ecological systems are essential for human life, exemplifying humanitys dependence on nature. Moreover, many towns and cities worldwide have historically positioned around different types of wetlands in search of their benefits. In 2020, Chile enacted the Urban Wetlands Law, marking a milestone in environmental conservation in the country. This law recognizes the importance of wetlands in urban areas and establishes a framework for their protection. It mandates that urban wetlands be managed sustainably, respecting their ecological value and their role in human well-being while integrating them into municipal land-use and environmental planning instruments.Save this picture!Located on the border between the communes of Santo Domingo and San Antonio in the Valparaso region, the Ro Maipo Wetland Park is a space for conservation, recreation, and environmental education open to the community. Situated at the river's mouth in a dynamic and complex territory, Fundacin Cosmos has collaborated in designing infrastructures and developing management models to promote biodiversity conservation, ecological restoration, and community engagement in this coastal wetland of unique characteristics and great cultural and natural wealth, now protected under the designation of a Nature Sanctuary. According to its designers, each architectural decision has been an opportunity to learn about the natural dynamics of the site and how to develop infrastructures in wetlands. In fact, resilient, low-cost, and easily implementable strategies were developed for designing and constructing within the Ro Maipo Wetland, respecting natures patterns and rhythms while minimizing environmental impact.Save this picture!In this way, a simple infrastructure was designed based on pathways connecting landmarks strategically placed to facilitate landscape interpretation. Recycled containers were used for the entrance and administrative areas, while accessible wooden walkways were incorporated throughout the site, adapting in form according to the environment and the needs of each space, for example, rising in height in flood-prone areas. Beyond an interpretative room, six viewpoints, a one-kilometer walkway circuit, and various community activity space, ssince 2023, the Parks section within the Nature Sanctuary has offered an interpretive trail with interactive exhibits to highlight the cultural and natural heritage of the socio-ecosystem. Through 12 interactive museographic stations located along the route, visitors can explore the territory while learning about topics such as migratory birds, Indigenous peoples, and the ecosystem services provided by wetlands.Save this picture!On the other hand, the Salinas de Huentelauqun Wetland is a RAMSAR site spanning 2,772 hectares in the Coquimbo region of northern Chile. Encompassing a variety of habitats including beaches, plains, dunes, ravines, runoff wetlands, coastal wetlands, and a vast estuarine lagoon, Fundacin Cosmos has sought to create infrastructure that facilitates tourism and education around the wetland by providing spaces for contemplation, observation, and learning. Through a participatory design process, the proposal for the Museo Abierto Explanada de las Aguas (Open-Air Museum of the Waters) was developed, aimed at environmental education, nature appreciation, and fostering a deeper connection with the landscape. Inspired by the archaeological lithic structures of the Huentelafken Complex, an Indigenous culture that inhabited the area over 8,000 years ago, local materials and traditional construction techniques using stone, reeds, and wood were employed in the first phase of the Explanada de las Aguas.Save this picture!Highlighting the value of water as a territory mold, the esplanade offers panoramic views of the various habitats of the wetland, opening up in four viewpoints where the Sea Viewpoint overlooks the Pacific Ocean, the River Viewpoint overlooks the mouth of the Choapa River, the Ponds Viewpoint looks toward the cryptic lagoons, and the Mountain Viewpoint faces the Coastal Range. Synthesizing its history to merge with the landscape, the project demonstrates the importance of involving local communities from the beginning to understand the socio-ecosystem and develop initiatives that value heritage, promote local cultures, and strengthen the bond between people and their territories. Through plans and technical details, the book "Learnings for Territorial Well-being" exposes how the volumetry of the site was generated from the geometrized drawing of the ancestral lithic that rises in the form of dry-stone walls, constructed with local techniques. These dry-stone walls are the result of a collaborative work of learning where, while the team from Cosmos Foundation designed their shapes and layouts, community members were the ones who taught how to build them. Highlighting the role of water as a force that shapes the land while offering panoramic views of the wetlands diverse habitats, the esplanade unfolds into four viewpoints: the Mirador del Mar overlooking the Pacific Ocean, the Mirador del Ro facing the mouth of the Choapa River, the Mirador de las Charcas offering views of the cryptic lagoons, and the Mirador de la Cordillera directed towards the Coastal Mountain Range. By synthesizing history into the landscape, the project demonstrates the importance of involving local communities from the beginning to understand the socio-ecosystem and develop initiatives that recognize heritage, promote local cultures, and strengthen peoples ties to their land. Through detailed site plans and technical specifications, the book Aprendizajes para el Bienestar Territorial explains how the site's volumetric design was generated based on the geometric interpretation of an ancestral lithic structure, built using local techniques in the form of pircas (dry-stone walls). These pircas are the result of a collaborative and educational effort, where Fundacin Cosmos designed their shapes and layouts, while community members led the construction process, passing on their knowledge.Save this picture!Pamela Hurtado Berger, founder of Fundacin Cosmos, invites us to reflect: "Is it possible to design a landscape for its regeneration?" By integrating the natural landscape, local culture, and community needs, the focus shifts toward harmonizing human habitation with natures cycles and functions. By reclaiming vernacular architecture, projects can honor traditional construction techniques and the use of local materials while adapting designs to each site's climate and geographical conditions. As seen in La Aldea del Encuentro in Chile and the Jardn Sanador Kamuna in Burund, Africa, multidisciplinary collaboration and community participation are essential in participatory design processes. Factors such as social interaction, dialogue, and the transmission of traditional skills extend beyond the project itself, fostering social integration, cohesion, and the strengthening of community ties.Save this picture!Territorial well-being requires an integrated, creative, and collaborative approach. Fundacin Cosmos works alongside architects, biologists, engineers, sociologists, designers, and journalists to restore the human-nature relationship. It collaborates with national and international organizations dedicated to biodiversity conservation, local social groups, universities, public institutions, private companies, experts, and authorities, integrating diverse perspectives, knowledge, and expertise to design natural spaces and management models for the regeneration and conservation of socio-ecosystems. From wetland restoration to the creation of healing and therapeutic gardens or the revitalization of urban parks, its mission is to harness the power of nature to promote well-being through landscape design.Save this picture!Image gallerySee allShow lessAbout this authorAgustina IiguezAuthorCite: Iiguez, Agustina.

The history of this house is one of tenacity and pride. These are the emotions that led the first generation of a family of breeders to establish their livestock farm on land made up of excavated material from a nearby landfill, and the second generation to reclaim the land to build their home next to their parents' house.Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!Before the redevelopment, the area appeared as a large concrete platform with abandoned sheds covered in asbestos sheets, scattered in a disorderly manner. From the southern retaining wall to the access road, the land was uncultivated. It stood as an alteration of the surrounding landscape, creating a true fragmentation of the natural green system and significantly modifying the structural characteristics of the agricultural territory.Save this picture!Save this picture!An unacceptable situation - The project aimed to restore a balance between natural and artificial greenery and the agricultural settlement. The plan involved demolishing the existing buildings to achieve environmental recovery, returning much of the occupied land to its natural state, carrying out necessary decontamination work, and replacing the large existing volumes with housing units in line with the typology of the surrounding agricultural context: a single-family dwelling connected to the land. The landscape itself dictates the spaces and uses of both natural and built areas. The concept of greenery is not interpreted generically but rather takes on different forms according to its specific function.Save this picture!As one approaches the house, the greenery becomes increasingly structured. It begins with the existing Mediterranean scrub, followed by open-air cultivations made possible by the presence of a land caretaker, olive groves and orchards, a garden of aromatic herbs serving the residence, and a "filter" green area with climbing plants covering existing walls and newly built terraces that soften elevation changes and allow for the planting of new trees. The project achieved the re-naturalization of 87% of the surfaces and reconstructed only 25% of the existing volumes.Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!The design of the house is intentionally simple, respecting the typological characteristics of the surrounding buildings. It is a single-story structure that establishes a harmonious relationship with the landscape through a sequence of volumes of varying depths. At the entrance, the volume narrows and is traversed by open pathways, becoming transparent to ensure permeability with the landscape and retreating from the roof to create covered transition spaces.Save this picture!Every detail is minimal and deliberately understated, occasionally allowing for subtle refinements thanks to skilled craftsmanshipfor example, achieving visual continuity between the exposed concrete on the exterior and the wooden ceiling inside.Save this picture!Project gallerySee allShow lessAbout this officeMaterialsGlassConcreteMaterials and TagsPublished on March 09, 2025Cite: "Villa Beusi / Calvi Ceschia Vigan architetti associati" 09 Mar 2025.

Have you ever Googled yourself? You might be surprised at how much information can be turned up about you from a simple searchthough it depends on how public your online presence is and how common your name happens to be. If you dont like what you see, theres a silver lining: Google gives you tools to remove your details from results pages.There are numerous reasons why other people might put your name into a Google search, from old school friends wanting to get in touch to potential employers seeking to ask about hiring you. If someone else is looking you up, then you want the information they see about you to be accurate.You might also not want to be found at allor think your personal information could be used for nefarious purposes. If you want to scrub results from Google rather than correct them, thats possible too. The easiest way to do this is in a desktop web browser, though youll find similar options on the mobile version of Google too.What Google can doThere are several reasons why you might want results removed. Screenshot: Google Googles search result removal tools are designed primarily to protect your privacy and sensitive data you dont want the whole world knowing. If, for example, you see that your phone number or home address has been made public, you can take steps to get them taken down.Google says this bucket of sensitive information can also include social security numbers, bank account numbers, credit card details, medical records, copies of your handwritten signature, and confidential login credentials. If you dont want this kind of information to show up in a search, then Google lets you do something about it. Get the Popular Science newsletter Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. By signing up you agree to our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.What these tools arent really for is censoring or editing Google search resultsif you appear in a news story and dont want the publicity, for example, or youd rather your LinkedIn page was ranking higher than your Instagram page. These arent changes you can tell Google to make.Besides the personal privacy angle, there are a couple of other reasons you can ask Google to scrub results from its list: if the information these results contain are outdated, or if you have a legal reason for removing a web link (like copyright infringement). When you ask to remove links, youll be asked to specify the reason for the request.Its important to note that these processes dont remove the information from the internetthe relevant pages will simply stop showing up in Google searches, making them harder for other people to find. To actually get these details scrubbed from the web, you need to get in touch with (or take steps against) the website they appear on.How to remove results from GoogleYou can flag up issues right from the search results page. Screenshot: Google There are a couple of ways to start a removal request. The first is to actually run a Google search for your name: Click the three dots next to any web result that subsequently appears on screen, and pick Remove result from the panel on the right.You then get to choose the reason for the removal request. The first option is It shows my personal info and I dont want it there. Click on this and you can specify the type of information thats shown, before confirming you dont want to see it in search resultsjust follow the instructions to make the request.You can also pick I have a legal removal request, which takes you to a separate page where you can outline the reasons for your request, or choose Its outdated and I want to request a refreshwith that last option, you simply click Request a refresh and youre done, no more form filling required. (Note: Google results generally show the most updated version of a web page, but sometimes an out-of-date version appears and Google needs to be told to crawl the page again.)Alternatively, you can go straight to Googles support page for removing results, and click Start removal request. This gives you the options weve already mentioned, plus a few moreyou can use it to remove results that show explicit or illegal material, for example, even if its not directly related to you.After the request is made, Google will then keep in touch with you via email. Youll get an email confirming the request has been made, as well as one telling you what action has been taken (if any). If additional details are required for Google to more fully assess the request, the company will ask over email.
