Abstract

The Guadalfeo’s Vega belonging to the Granada’s Province is a Mediterranean litoral heritage under pressure during the last decades due to the planned and unplanned growth of urban and touristic land uses. The first step to overcome the crisis of these territories is the renewal approach of the agrourban landscape which means a complex focus. The agrourban landscape is a new scenario or evolutionary spatio-temporal gradient where urban and agrarian land-uses interweaving new functions. This special condition of Guadalfeo’s Vega may be addressed in a positive way by means of the pro-active tools of the ecoestructure and the multifunctionality.
The positive feed-back between multifuncionality and ecostructure would be the main resource to encourage and design a hybrid strategy for the environmental planning. That’s the challenge for the decades ahead, balancing with success nature and city in the agrourban landscapes.
