Rustic Untidiness: Prosthetic Nature
3GBX 2021 Spring
DS 5000 Vertical Studio Spring
Instructor: Hernán Díaz Alonso / Joy Dai
At the intersection between the urban and the rural, the project is located at the Parana Delta in Rosario, Argentina. It aims at creating a new ecosystem negotiating possibilities with the existing site. A new territory is defined with an underlying artificial network inspired by the natural form of a honeycomb.
By defining this starting point of this new ecosystem, the strategy allows later growth of habitable infrastructure and post-human natural form. The projects orient itself at the discussion of the level of imprints from human traces onto the natural form and vise versa.
The project operates on a regional master plan level, envisioning a future lifestyle that would be submerged and overwhelmed by nature in a prosthetic way.
