ABSTRACT
The projects I will discuss below are rooted, for the most part, in the territory—Swiss and French—where I was born, have lived, and have worked. The Mexican novelist Carlos Fuentes once wrote that we have to imagine the past and recall the future. In that sense, I will imagine these river and other projects and perhaps recall their future—one is still in construction and will require a long period of time for its completion. But to establish a gateway into my way of thinking and approach to design I will present one element of a larger park, a “tunnel bridge” made about two decades ago.
