FERTILE FUTURES
Album
Description
Fresh water scarcity and management is a global problem, evident in the Portuguese context.
Focusing on seven distinct hydrogeographies, the project presents the outcomes of a commission made to young architects, in collaboration with specialists from other areas of knowledge, to develop models for a more sustainable, healthy, and equitable tomorrow, in non-hierarchical cooperation between disciplines, generations, and species.
Based on the strategic complementarity between practice, theory, and pedagogy in architecture, Fertile Futures advocates the pertinence of architecture’s role in the design of a decarbonised, decolonised, and collaborative future, expanding its action through five Assemblies of Thought and an International Summer Seminar.
