My dissertation thesis The interface between city and the landscape, centers on an area of the locally prominent rock Marianska skala in the city Usti nad Labem. The final design is a form of urbanistic-architectural study. The design methodology is based on city analysis and public research as mental mapping. The subject area has strong potential and natural values, however at present there is a minimal usage of this area by the local residents. The project therefore aims to integrate the area into a functional city system, with the rock becoming a key post of the connection between city center and the surrounding landscape. By addressing the challenges of integrating the city into the fabric of the surrounding landscape, the project explores the limits and possibilities of permeability. The thesis introduces aspects of the historical interface between city and the landscape, and this is the main principle the thesis is based on. New functions and elements as a forest park, as well as a sport and recreation area, are designed to revive the site and surrounding area. Designed for residents and tourists alike, creating a new dialogue between users, the historical landscape, and modern concepts of sport, tourism and ecology. Emphasis is put on the natural values and their protection. The design of the individual parts combine to promote and celebrate the rock Marianska skala as an important orientation point and vertically dominant feature of the city structure.
