Banger's and Mash



We are used to quite a harsh experience in the architectural landscape around us, often environments don’t have a human scale. the built environment faces, unprecedented urbanization, accelerating climate change and the need for preservation of tropical biodiversity. We would prefer an architecture that is consistent with human feeling, and in which design decisions are based on observation and empirical verification. The use of living systems creates a more vibrant and sustainable life for both the occupants and the city, through porous façades, airy pathways, and communal gardens” hinting at an “utopian urban future” that is already taking shape. The bottom line is that buildings have to provide good, healthy environments for human beings, and to inflict the least possible damage to the Earth’s ecology.
