Amfilissos
Area Flow Grid: Physical Layer
The Physical Layer of the Amfilissos Area
flow grid integrates the various kinds of flows –
streams, roads, tracks, bridges, water mills ports – that provide the pathways for living
- giving access to resources and allowing movement of
people, and their animals, and providing nodes –
village
squares,
laundries, resorts – facilitating exchanges of material,
cultural, emotional and spritual resources. Following
the philosophy of “A Thousand Plateaux” (Deleuze and
Guattari, 1988) these nodes are “doubled” across the
Physical and the Socio-cultural Layers of the Amfilissos
Area flow grid.
A wildlife reserve
is also planned for the
Martinis mountain on the Eastern boundary of the
Amfilissos Area.
It is important that every part of every kind of flow in
the physical layer of the flow grid should be maintained as
a public corridor or space, accessible and open to all
comers. Developments that (even if unintentionally) block
part of a flow in the grid will damage the physical,
ecological and ecological heritage kept alive within the
grid, and could prejudice the future richness, efficacy and
variety of developments and enterprises within the
Amfilissos Area.
