Urban landscape context of your case

• Monte Gaiás is one of the Hills that shape Santiago de Compostela´s landscape. Santiago de Compostela is European medium size city, known for being the final destination of the Saint Jacques pilgrimage route. Its historic center was declared Unesco World Heritage in 1985. The urban structure of the city has allowed "nature" and the rural scape to be present in the life of the center of the city.
• The historic center is built on a high point surrounded by other hills and two rivers the River Sar and the Sarela. Out of its walled historic center the city grew from medieval times a long the paths that join the city with other near by towns and rural areas. This allowed the agricultural fields to come in between the backs of them till the gates of the town.
• Illustration: Map; sketches; short descriptive analyses

Design Synthesis

Please analyse the individual approaches presented so far and evaluate their strengths and weaknesses (you may use the SWOTanalysis model). Try to create a synthesis and represent it with a plan and some sketches. You can still use drawings/sketches.
