2. Landscape approach to water management Integration water into the (urban) landscape Multi-functional use of water: recreation, purification, functional use (boats) Combining project design, development of structures, process and patterns with planning strategies 2

4. Landscape approach to water management regional scale Linking knowledge and actors Development of integrated management options Rising the awareness of implication of water use (scarcity/value of water) Tool: Adapted Land Use Planning Vegetation selection Forestry decvelopment and protection Agriculture (Crop pattern, management) Erosion prevention Increase of infiltration Implementation of visible water structures (distribution of potential water sectors/polluters (farmer, settlement) e.g. up-/downstream Promotion of water recycling 4

5. Landscape approach for watermanagement on urban level Guiding principles: Legal requirements in local, regional and national law Tools Planning: Interconnected system of water elements Grey water re-use Water basins also for recreation, amusement Design: - Local traditional plant species – extending urban forest, green corridors of pine and citrus -Water elements in public spaces, different levels -System helps to improve quality of urban open space design Management model -Involving local communities -Facilities V5

6. Landscape approach for watermanagement local level Compensation built up surface with green areas, Berlin, Seattle, Designing for zero-run off): roof gardens, permeable surfaces, retainment ponds During the building process (in USA) plan to keep the pollution on the site during. Integrating systems for grey water recycling (helophyte areas) in combination of ecology Multifunctional peak water temporarily catchment area Parking lot: retention area of run off water. Exemplary designs with native species, indigenous ecosystem gardens. Designing for scarce water use Multi use design of waterfacilities: waterconservation treatment, waterconservation in overall design, do not place projects next ot each other. Increase visibility of water process Flood control: raising the boulevard and cover the road. V6
