Shannon Bassett (Re)stitch Tampa is a design research platform which includes essays and design proposals from the international design ideas competition (Re)stitch Tampa. Discourse framed by the underlying themes of the competition, examines (re)designing the city with natural systems and envisioning a new design for the city’s civic realm through connective urban landscape hybridized with ecological infrastructure which (re)stitches the city back to its river. This publication critically examines these issues through essays, in addition to showcasing selected competition entries, the results of (re)stitch Tampa. The discourse distills the design schemes and examines their possibilities as viable alternative urban models for development, which reconsider the relationship of landscape to the city and urban redevelopment. Shannon Bassett is an architectural and urban designer. Her research, teaching, writing and practice operate at the intersection of architecture, urban design and ecological systems.
