This week we investigated patterns and the way they can influence urban form. We came up with a model for a new city, which was inspired by the flower of life. (see below)
The flower is a symbol of thriving life, a plant only flowers when it is healthy enough to do so. With this in mind we would like to think of this model as a community that will thrive in its own right.
The flower shape allows for effective and efficient resource production and also consumption, providing a closed look system that impinges the values of sustainability and self-sufficiency.
