Urban Organism treats cities as complex, metabolic systems rather than static built environments. This perspective examines how design can facilitate the flows of resources, food, and energy through urban spaces, and how architecture responds to and shapes the living processes of cities.The community explores vertical farming and food systems integrated into urban fabric, adaptive architecture that evolves with city needs, and buildings that blur boundaries between human structures and natural ecosystems through green facades and forest integration.
