21 24 Symbiotic Cities
2 25 proposes a recycled
and sustainable social
23 framework, developed
through a series of critical
investigations based
on current conditions
within London and its
inhabitants involvement,
and interactions, with the
existing infrastructure of
the city.

Confined to the same
territorial boundaries
the two cities
operate symbiotically
developing tactics
and methodologies
to survive within their
political, economical and
environmental conditions.

The project focuses in
on the construction of
an algae biofule plant
based in the ‘local’ city
HQ on the edge of the
serpentine pool in Hyde
Park.

DUO DIMENSIVA

Duo Dimensiva located
in the hills of Monuments
Pass Utah the proposed
city of explores the
concept of inhabiting
the synthetic and artificial
world of the film set; a
development of a two-
dimensional heterotopia.
The city encompasses the
haptic and illusive devices
of cinema to create a
space of illusion that
exposes every real space,
all the sites inside of which
human life is partitioned,
as still more illusory.
