Eco Town

Eco Town explores how a natural lake area can become more accessible and active without losing its quiet ecological character. The project was developed for Kazimierz Biskupi Lake in Kozarzewek, Poland during the Urban Planning course. The main idea was to create a human-scaled recreational area that respects the landscape instead of dominating it. The proposal includes wooden walking paths, bicycle routes, beaches, eco-parking, camping cabins, sport areas, playgrounds, fishing platforms, and belvederes. Each element is placed carefully to help people experience the lake, observe nature, and spend time outdoors. At its core, Eco Town is about balance. It shows how architecture can support recreation, ecology, and local identity at the same time. Instead of transforming nature into a commercial attraction, the project uses simple structures, local materials, and soft interventions to make people more aware of the environment around them.
