The «Technique et Paysage» research group was mandated by the town of Sion to produce a guide in the form of recommendation sheets for actions in favour of soil permeability in the urban environment.
This guide aims to accompany the design or rehabilitation of an urban space with the help of 9 sheets reporting the advantages and disadvantages of various types of surfacing from the point of view of the urban climate.
Depending on the climatic objectives and the requirements of the location, the guide provides a detailed typology to help target the best choice, or even the best range of surfacing possibilities.
