Landscape Urbanism, the Paris Agenda 01

Paris and its suburbs represent a working population of 5.5 million people. More than 11 million inhabitants are distributed within 12,000 square kilometers, out of those, 2 million people live within 105 square kilometers.
Political subdivision of the ground, topographic conditions, cultural interaction, social problems and a constantly increasing unprivileged population limit the transformation of Paris into a 21st century major city, requiring urgent solutions.

The Landscape Urbanism academic studio aims to reformulate existing fabrics and future projects that the Parisian suburbia and metropolitan area are engaged with. Based on the Greater Paris urban development Project, the studio proposes systems of organization seeking to find methods and techniques mediating with large scale strategies.
The central ambition of the studio agenda is driven by a continuous dissatisfaction with the current architectural trends suggesting sentiments rather than architecture and over-proposing an architecture materialised by several cosmetic tangible manipulations such as green alleys, blue skies, etc.
