The Process The zone assigned to us consists of parts of two barrios Horta-guinardo, Nou barris and covers the neighbourhoods of Horta, la Guineueta, Can Reguera, El Turo de la peira, Porta, Vilapicina I la Torre Llobeta, La font d’en Fargues.The main factor which affects all the factors in our zone is the Topography. The topography is moderately complex due to the presence of two hills on site one with Parc del turo de la peira , other with parc del guinardo and the mountains in the north west.We focussed our mapping process on the people especially old people which account to 30% of the population in our zone and open spaces and walkability in the zone towards bus stops, metrostops, bicing and other amenities in the area.We also analysed the production of garbage and waste in the zone and concentrated on the market as the prominent generator of organic waste. The Conclusion and the Proposal The position of markets and other important amenities and transport stations are not favourably distributed in the zone predominantly because of the topography. There is a lack of pedestrian only zones. The Public spaces are far from most of the residential area and old-age homes because of which people have to use other modes of transport, most of the times the public spaces are situated in pockets created by intersecting roads. The Proposal will consist of the following: 1 An efficient distribution of markets and other amenities (favouring old people and walkability). 2 Community farming zones and the composting plants. 3 Pedestrian streets.

The main factor which affects all the factors in our zone is the Topography. The topography is moderately complex due to the presence of two hills on site one with Parc del turo de la peira , other with parc del guinardo and the mountains in the north west.
We focussed our mapping process on the people especially old people which account to 30% of the population in our zone and open spaces and walkability in the zone towards bus stops, metrostops, bicing and other amenities in the area.
We also analysed the production of garbage and waste in the zone and concentrated on the market as the prominent generator of organic waste.
