(mentor) Kuzniecow Bacchin, T.

There is a need to explore new approaches which are able to deal with the holistic nature of the landscape. The aim of this research is to develop an integrated urban regeneration strategy employing urban landscape infrastructures as armatures for sustainable development in the case of Anuradhapura, Sri Lanka. The research defines the different problems that the city is facing and identifies a theoretical framework to transform the urban landscape using different concepts in the field of landscape urbanism and in particular landscape as infrastructure. The objective is to develop an approach which integrates the social, economic, and ecological aspects of the landscape.Through a comprehensive analysis of the landscape of Anuradhapura, the logic of the different systems is identified. Five landscape perspectives are used to structure the research into coherent parts. These different parts detail how the different landscape structures and elements interact in order to form a complex system. The learning is combined in order to form a whole using the concept of space of flows.
