This is Pau Casals Square, a [geometric park](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/landscape-intervention) designed by landscape architects ACXT and part of Bilbao's project to improve [urban spaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skakkeringen) and the quality of life for residents. Pau Casals Square connects the surrounding neighborhoods and also compounds an area that is prone to landslides. By preserving existing rock and integrating [triangular patches of vegetation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lady-raval) with concrete to reinforce weak spots, the architects have renovated an old, unused rocky slope into a place where residents can meet, sit and stroll. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.5/10 - Popularity: 24% | Activity: 14% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Geometric Parks:** Creating geometric parks that integrate vegetation and infrastructure to improve urban spaces and quality of life. - **Green Urban Design:** Designing urban spaces that prioritize sustainability and environmental preservation through the integration of nature and landscaping. - **Renovating Unused Spaces:** Transforming neglected areas into functional and aesthetically pleasing environments for residents to enjoy. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Landscape Architecture:** Opportunity to design and create innovative green spaces that enhance urban environments and promote well-being. - **Civil Engineering:** Opportunity to integrate green infrastructure into urban planning and development, ensuring environmental sustainability and stability. - **Urban Planning:** Opportunity to incorporate geometric parks and green spaces into city design to promote a higher quality of life and community engagement. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Spanish Mountain Pass Lookouts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/farrapona-geological.md) - [Terraced Urban Landmarks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/go-park-sai-sha.md) - [Public Pavilion Architecture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tess-pavilion.md) - [Cozy Mixed-Use Gathering Spaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mixeduse-gathering-space.md) - [Urban Ecological Design Projects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/urban-ecological-design.md) - [Gridded Urban Apartment Blocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-carboneria.md) - [Vibrant Sports Parks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/huachiao-vibrant-sports-park.md) - [Forested Hillside Family Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casa-ventura.md) - [Regenerative Eco-Park Infrastructures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lake-texcoco.md)
