Makan

Staatsbosbeheer werkt samen met LTO, de gemeente, waterschap en de provincie aan de inrichting van de natuurgebieden Punthuizen, Beuninger Achterveld en Stroothuizen. De bijzondere natuur staat hier onder druk door verdroging. Samen met de eigenaren zijn we daarom op zoek naar een nieuwe balans tussen natuur en landbouw. Deze animatie geeft u een beeld van hoe het gebied er uitziet, nadat de plannen in 2021 zijn uitgevoerd. Makan landscape design heeft samen met Touw en Dutch Tilt deze animatie gemaakt.

For the Natura 2000 areas; Beuninger Achterveld. Punthuizen and Stroothuizen the province of Overijssel asked for a nature recovery masterplan. The nature restoration measures have to improve the hydrological situation in the natural areas and also reduce the amount of nitrogen, which leads to protection of the Habitat of special plants and animals. Makan is asked to design the masterplan within the multidisciplinary team.

Bloeiend beenbreek juli 2017 in natuurgebied Stroothuizen bij Denekamp in Twente.

Stroothuizen (148 acre) Punthuizen (333 acre) and Beuninger Achterveld are remnants of the former extensive heathland (Denekamperveld) in East Twente. It consists out of dry and wet heathland and some wet low shaped grabens with puddles and nutrient poor grassland. The concept is to restore the wet low grabens which still exist hydrological, but at the moment are not visible in the landscape because of the high intensify agricultural use. Measurements to restore the wet grabens are, to reduce the water canals in the surrounding of the nature areas, what will lead to a groundwater rising and nature development in the grabens, whereby the three nature reserves will no longer be separated.

This requires a very different agricultural management, where again wet meadows occur and where in the area of the grabens there is no place for the cultivation of corn. Because the water level in the grabens can greatly differ throughout the seasons, Makan is asked to create an animation in which becomes clear how the water behaves. In the winter there will be a lot a water, and the grabens chances into pools, in the summer species rich hay meadows occur.
