Description
A challenge for the competition is to formulate an updated vision of a more organic city, in which humans are but one among many participants in the intricately intertwined spectrum of life. For non-human animals to occupy a more visible place in our cities, we need to reprioritize our urban infrastructure. The modern city's obsession with hygiene and sterility will be challenged by adapting a new filter of animality for assessing the biosynthetic sustainability of a new habitat, conceived as a demonstration of post-human urbanity.
Through a broader survey of urban community of Haebangchon on Namsan-both real and imagined, and through architectural reincarnation in various forms of hidden public spaces, the ideal proposals shall address and challenge key concepts regarding post-human community, biosynthetic diversity, social sustainability, and urban regeneration.
