Entry Description

Landscape as a medium of urbanism

Metamorphic Landscape investigates new modes of urban resilience and sustainability, which propose ecological urban synthesis and infrastructure in response to tsunami and flooding, related to sea level rise by 2050. The transformed landscape as an urban platform would not only protect the land from flooding but also adapt the regions to sea level rise by 2050. It will reproduce the urban ecosystem in which dynamic urban form and landscape create new urban spaces. Therefore, the project could be a new possible proposal for urban adaptation.
