The Tirana Lakeside District
The Tirana Lake can be seen as one of the more highly valuable areas of the town. It is a mini version of the city’s surrounding hills and mountains. It is one of the bigger green areas of the town that is lively but as well somehow dusty. It forms there an important role in the cleaning of the air in the city. And it forms a highly appreciated escape from the town. With the development on the northern plots around the lake, the area can be improved. But how to do that? How to use the design of these plots to strengthen the qualities of the area? This opportunity gives it actually the chance to enhance a unique combination of sport, park, water, and urban life, to preserve and even enlarge the openness, to complete the Lake Park. A relief of the city that must be protected, strengthened and enjoyed. A rare combination of ultimate leisure and an intense urban condition. How to use this contradiction and turn it into something unique?
