"The new metro station at Parc BIT is an opportunity to create a gate to the Serra de Tramuntana and a new centrality for Parc BIT. Through the creation of a square that will generate a new identity and the aim of improving relationships with the site as well as being environmentally friendly, the project is developed through five metabolic strategies: an exchanging square that connects all the existing and new paths and mobilities, a new identitary landscape made with the excess soils of the metro excavation, a reintroduction of a network of water features for the new agricultural parc, a self-managed and responsible food production and consumption, and a reduction of the emissions and optimization of the production of renewable energies."
