[Fiware-press-req] Reconnecting Cities with Natural Systems

[urbanNext]

As nature has its own ecological orders, designers need to reconcile urban planning with the original dynamics of the environment.

All but five per cent of the world’s population lives less than six miles from a river, lake or coast. The International Panel for Climate Change forecasts several scenarios of sea level rise, but a good amount of the world’s deltas, including those of the Mississippi, the Mekong and the Ganges will exist for a limited period of time. Areas that flood exceptionally – for instance, every 100 years – are going to be flooded regularly. The main challenge for these areas is seasonality, with vast extensions of territory in a permanent oscillation between being usable and submerged land. Which are the paradigms to reference for a new ‘normal’?

Hidden in Plain Sight is a proposal for a series of urban furnishings doubling as multi-species infrastructures in dense urban city centers. The prototypes are designed by Double Happiness, a collaboration between Nerea Feliz, the author of this paper, (Nerea Feliz Studio) and Joyce Hwang (Ants of the Prairie). As a team, we bring together interests in exploring design as a proactive participant in the environment and as a reflection of socio-cultural values through material expression. Our creative practice focuses on research and design at multiple scales, with interests in the intersections of interior design, architecture, urbanism, and ecology.
