Development
and Enrichment of the Amfilissos Area Flow Grid
The Amfilissos Area Flow Grid provides a structure, both
conceptual and physical, to enable rich and varied local
development within the area while ensuring synergy between
new initiatives and cultural inheritance. The grid
preserves full access to the rich variety of resources for
all, whether visitors or inhabitants, in both work and
recreation. The complete flow grid has two layers: a
physical layer
doubled with a
socio-cultural
layer.

The aim of the Amfilissos Network
is to ensure that the
planning, promotion and implementation of developments
within the Amfilissos area keeps within, and respects
the framework of, the flow grid. The construction of the
Amfilissos Area flow grid was inspired by the planning
framework of the East London Green Grid, but it is being specially developed
to meet the needs of this rural area, rich in cultural
and ecological heritage.
