Park Supermarkt

I saw this landscape design at an exhibit in the NAi Rotterdam. The idea and design is from the Dutch architects van Bergen Kolpa. I find it a truly grand design that brings us back to simplicity and knowing where food comes from.

Park Supermarket Park is a spatial development model for a Landscape Supermarket situated in the Metropolitan parks of the Randstad. The Dutch polder landscapes, once the icons of our food production, are now situated in inner city locations and are under pressure of rising water tables and climate changes. Can these areas play a new role in food and recreation need of in the Randstad population which today knows 170 different nationalities, food and culinary traditions?
