[Re]constructed Ground, No. 1
Plaster and card Andrew Morris
Te proposal to re- establish Marseille’s Le Panier district as [re] constructed ground – a palimpsest of city territory composed of the material (geology, archaeology, urbanism(s)) and the immaterial (history, memory) – positions the ground with its contents as equals to the experienced visible city.
Te project proposes a defensive strategy to protect Venice from the increasing threat of invasive algae growth and the pressures facing the fragile Venetian lagoon. Situated in the north of the Arsenale, the project proposes laboratory structures that will monitor and analyse algae growth as well as the welfare of the lagoon. Te structures will symbiotically control and collect a harvest of macro-algae, which will be converted into bio-fuels in order to generate power for the city.

Te Eternal City Inkjet print James Redman
Te Eternal City is an end- of-world supposition. Te project forms a critique on sustainability and eternity, in conversation between 16th-century metaphysics and Joseph Heller’s literary work, Catch-22.
Tis project transforms a sprawling and unsightly 1960s bungalow. Te confused form of the original has been re-organised into three distinct volumes, each with views over the south garden, providing deep overhangs to control solar gain. Te model exists as a representation and an object in its own right.
