T h i s p r o j ec t d e a l s w i t h s i m ilar interests on how to rep r o d u c e a r ch i t e c t u r a l d e s i g n , but with a different approach. Old unused buildings are rel o c a t e d a nd r e u s e d a s b u i l d ing components. The old buildi n g s a r e b ei n g c u t , s e p e r a t e d and graded according to suitable use. The proposal is a spawning city for people to tap in and build upon these newly configured structures that offer flexibility in ind i v i d u a l de s i g n . T h e s e n e w l y configured structure only act a s a f o u n d at i o n f o r p e o p l e t o build upon and adapt.
