Wild Vähäheikkilä
What is wild Vähäheikkilä? In the context of current ecological challenges, a new understanding of urbanity is taking center stage: the recognition of the city as a habitat for more than just people. Wild urban nature does not stand for anarchy, but for natural self-organization, co-evolution and resilience.
Urban space is shaped in coexistence with all forms of life. Wild urban nature does not mean a return to “pure” nature, but the integration of natural processes into the urban fabric – as a co-creator, as part of a shared future. The transformation of the canalized stream, not as a pure infrastructure project, but as a living dynamic organism gives rise to new urban qualities. Water is not controlled here, but accompanied. It becomes the engine of ecological, spatial and social renewal.
