Project: A Possibilist Patchwork: London’s Micro-Green Grid

Client: New London Architecture

Where Pathways Meet, working with EcoResponsive Enviroments and Studio 8 Fold are delighted to have been shortlisted in the Reimagine London competition organised by New London Architecture.

Shortlisted from over 100 entries our submission: A Possibilist Patchwork – London’s Micro-Green Grid responds to the ambitious open call to reimagine London with innovative, community focussed visions to tackle some of London’s most pressing challenges including accessibility and sustainability.

A Possibilist Patchwork leverages AR and VR technologies to empower local citizens to co-create a network of micro-green spaces at residual and leftover urban spaces around houses and housing estates, along streets and other city infrastructures.

Our project will increase the agency of Londoners by giving them innovative tools of AR/VR underpinned by our placemaking toolkit to visualise and reimagine the potential of these leftover spaces and co-create projects and ideas to physically transform them into a multifunctional micro-green grid that supports environmental, social and economic resilience across the city.

By developing additional interactive and playful tools through AR/VR, citizens will be further empowered to be active custodians of these newly transformed, co-created and flourishing spaces.
