Recasting the civic commons, the horizontally organized campus reinvigorates city streets as vital public spaces and embeds new programs into existing networks.
The complex inverts the closed form of the nearby castle grounds that once defined the city core and translates the porous, flexible haengrang into a new public arcade.
And from the cultural history and ecological value of communal reforestation, a wild rooftop meadow and tree farm seeds the future city, conspiring with several infrastructural strategies to anticipate ambitious energy and climate futures.
