A collective living environment that prioritizes awareness of land use and environmental conditions to connect its inhabitants with the practice of land cultivation.
Dwellers are subject to the same living conditions as the plants they grow, thus the two species share the same survival strategies and material techniques necessary to adapt to their environment in order to thrive and grow.
Planning of both people and plant spaces further revolves around their shared needs and constraints; sun, wind, water, and earth define places of dwelling.
Variation in density, elevation, and plant selection creates a site that transforms laterally, vertically, and seasonally.
