Designing of Palestine Street Pedestrian Walkway – Babolsar
The Palestine Street Pedestrian Walkway in Babolsar was designed with the goal of revitalizing urban space, enhancing social interactions, and creating a vibrant recreational-cultural destination along the waterfront. This project, with a combination of modern hardscapes and diverse softscapes, strives to elevate the pedestrian experience by the sea from a mere passage into a lively, multi-functional public space.
The overall form of the project utilizes organic lines and structured concrete volumes, along with a neutral color palette and simple materials such as concrete, wood, and metal, to convey a sense of order, tranquility, and connection to nature. The intelligent use of urban furniture, the planting of native trees, and the design of resting areas not only contribute to air circulation and aesthetics but also, by defining various functions (including an exhibition space, a cafe, and a bicycle station), they enhance the psychological well-being and comfort of citizens. The smoothly designed access routes make the experience of entering and moving through the space simple and pleasant.
This design is an example of the integration of contemporary landscape architecture with the principles of sustainable urban development; a place where form, function, and the environment are in complete harmony, serving to enhance the quality of life and the urban fabric. The Palestine Street Pedestrian Walkway now stands as a symbol of a public destination, order, and beauty within its urban landscape
