Project Description
FROM THE ARCHITECTS:
Calama PLUS is a public-private initiative aimed to compensate the Calama inhabitants, in response to their massive and constant complaints about the negative environmental impact of mining activity on the city. It is intended to improve, on one hand, its urban quality, and on the other, to preserve and expand its condition of oasis. With a participatory design process, the master plan includes 23 projects to improve the city ranging from urban parks, public spaces and schools to proposals on how to use more efficiently scarce water resources.
