Delta Urbe is the Design Thesis of Shruthi Padmanabhan and Fernando Blanco.
Abstract: Rapidly changing delta environments are reciprocal to the continuous human interventions with implications happening along its river’s course. Our proposal uses their inherent sedimentation processes as a land reclamation mechanism that orchestrates social and cultural formations in these ever-changing territorial landscapes and produces alternatives to their spatial organisation and managerial understanding. The reciprocal thinking compels us to take into account the consequences of our intervention and decision-making process as an intrinsic part of our proposal.
