Descripció

El Parc de Can Mates, amb una extensió aproximada de 20Ha, és l´espai lliure que estructura el creixement de la ciutat en direcció oest. Es tracta d´un parc lineal estretament lligat al sistema d´espais verds de la ciutat que connecten el centre històric amb l´entorn natural.
Aquesta condició estratègica fa que el parc es plantegi com un element de transició, amb una geometria i una topografia complexa, on la connexió amb la ciutat a través del pas sota la carretera de Vallvidrera, es resol amb un tractament més construït, geomètric i enjardinat que es dilueix progressivament cap a un paisatge més propis de l´entorn mes proper, amb espècies autòctones i recursos hídrics controlats, formalitzant uns camins que inviten a iniciar el recorregut ascendent cap el Turó, enclavament privilegiat per a observar la ciutat, fer volar un estel o contemplar el cel durant les nits d´estiu.

Description

Can Mates Park, with an area of approximately 20 ha, is the open public space that houses the growth of the city heading west. It is a linear park closely linked to the city's green spaces and which connects the historical center with the natural environment.
Due to this aspect, the park is strategically planned as a transitional element, with a complex geometry and topography, it provides a solution to connect the city with a more constructed treatment, geometric and landscaped, through the passage under the Vallvidrera Road. This characteristic is progressively diluted towards more native landscapes, ie. native species and controlled water resources, which formalize paths that invite us to climb to the Turó, a privileged place to view the city, fly a kite or watch the sky during the summer nights.
