Goal My goal is to design a new type of collective dwelling suited for contemporary living, which incorporates responsive design on sociological, economical, and environmental levels. The objective is to investigate in a new typology (from dwelling scale to urban scale) which could be appropriated as a positive example for living collectively.

mat urbanism as design approach

“mat-building can be said to epitomize the anonymous collective; where the functions come to enrich the fabric, and the individual gains new freedoms of action through a new shuffled order, based on interconnection, close knit patterns of association and possibilities for growth, diminution and change� - A.Smithson

Reflection

Responsive Suburbia could be appropriated as a positive example for living collectively. Overall, my design proposal is a healthy model for designing blank development sites such as IJBurg.
