"The Nalón estuary has been a heavily anthropized territory. However, it keeps an enormous potential from the ecosystem and local economy perspective. Therefore, instead of erasing the past or recreating a long-lost natural environment, we propose an organization of the territory that enhances proximity relationships with the environment, from which the biodiversity and ways of life that are already latent in the environment emerge naturally."
