Beginning from the reconstruction process of the Chilean earthquake and tsunami of February 27, 2010, it was generated the need of an intervention on those rings and bags of residual urban space, the most affected areas, because of their relation with the landscape. For this purpose, a new landscape planning was developed in order to propose new public space and to integrate concepts of mitigation through green urban belts, generating the concept of mitigation parks. Those residual urban spaces that the expansion of our cities have generated over ecologically vulnerable territories, in the measure of having been treated with sustainable criteria, will develop value no just in landscape design terms, but also as a potential sustainable public space capable of a dialogue with the natural environment. Methodologically, this study analyzed a relevant sample of the main urban projects of this type in the regions of Maule and Biobio, Chile, analyzing goods and wrongs in the process. In that way, it was established a series of general urban design criteria in order to generate an intervention that guarantee a better relationship between the urban landscape and natural environment.
