Sustainable Park Piedra Hincada, Guía de Isora – Estudio Funcionall

Drafting of the Gardening annex for the project of the “Sustainable Park Piedra Hincada, Guía de Isora” by Estudio Funciónll. A 200msm y situada entre invernaderos, una zona urbana y el Barranco de la Rabona se encuentra la parcela que se ajardina con especies endémicas propias de la zona y de los bosques termófilos.

The upper area, more urban, is the entrance to the park and is conceived with a highly ornamental character, with successive blooms and contrasting foliage. The rest of the park has a more natural appearance with many Tabaibas and fewer flowering plants.

The slopes are treated with high planting densities and basaltic rock formations that help contain the terrain.

A wetland is planned that will attract birds and reptiles, promoting biodiversity in the area. A small waterfall and an island will serve as resting spots for some birds. The planting of aquatic species creates a magnificent habitat for bird breeding, rest, and shelter. The fruits of the shrubs planned around the lagoon — such as Leña buena and Balo — will serve as food for endemic lizards, which in turn will feed some birds of prey.
