TAILORED SCAPES - Tongzhou China

Landscape Urbanism

The project is being developed as a response to the fast de-industrialization by generating a city tailored to its conditions and that engages with the social, economical and ecological changes.

It explores mechanisms of ground remediation treatments and ground works to fabricate a new urban development.

1-site indexing of specific contamination sites and levels of soil contamination based on existing industries.
2- Mesh structure generated from prototypical rules

generation of new grounds with remediation techniques

explioting technical process of soil extraction and deposition to structure site with connectivity

phased development- urbanisation with remediation

variation of treatment techniques and design development process

physical model 1- new grounds from remediation, extracted from truck movements

physical model 2- pedestrian movements and extraction of building typologies
