Exhibition


This project was developed for the context of Downtown Los Angeles, where a group of environment mediating agents is integrated into the urban space to create “liminoid gardens”. It responds to the desertification of transient urban spaces and urban desertification, as cities are almost exclusively dedicated to cars. This intervention proposes urban spaces of interaction with the surrounding environment providing the city dweller with the opportunity to manipulate the garden structures in real time. At the same time the garden displays independent behavior, generated by the surrounding environment conditions such as pollution levels and street and pedestrian activity. The exhibition and website includes drawings/illustrations of the project in poster format as well as a video of the physical prototype that was tested in Downtown Los Angeles.
