This article shows the interest of not approaching the milieu as a constraint on action, from which it should be freed because it is obeying other logics. Milieu should rather be viewed as an opportunity for action and as a means for giving foundations to it. The historical example of Barcelona is used for showing what are the main epistemological and methodological challenges that geography should meet for helping to plan with the milieu and not against it.
