Urban Forest
Integration of trees, vegetation, and natural ecosystems into urban environments and architectural design.
Urban forests represent the strategic incorporation of green infrastructure into cities, addressing environmental challenges while reshaping how people interact with built space. This includes everything from large-scale woodland preservation to the integration of vegetation into building facades and public markets.The community explores projects that weave forests and productive landscapes into urban contexts, from wrapping structures in vertical tropical growth and creating food-producing parks to scattering pavilions within existing canopies and designing habitats that blur boundaries between city and nature.
