Roots draw warmth from the earth flowing up concrete trunks that transport resources to and from the dwellings, providing the inhabitants with essential nutrients. Metal leaves catch water, channelling it into the roots for STorage and recycling. The canopies are nurtured, branches and leaves STretch out from the trunk expanding space as the community it holds evolves. Elevation gives a level of separation and privacy form the intense publicity of the ground, allowing inhabitants to observe or ignore the movement below. Below the trees people pass amongST the urban floor moving between zones, in and out of the dappled shadows of the canopies and light filled clearings of concrete STumps.
