Abstract

The landscape project is the management of its morpho-holistic identity, which contains the tangible and the intangible that have shaped a landscape through a process of successive artealizations. Starting from this premise, this article reflects on the capacity of waste, its projectability in the construction of landscapes: the waste landscapes are established as a new category in landscape design, which is constantly evolving according to social and cultural changes. A new approach towards waste is introduced through representative examples, with the intention to demonstrate that waste has diverse morpho-holistic identities, linked to different intangible aspects: their origin and other stories.

Keywords: waste landscape, Suria salt dump, artealization, waste
