This research is focused on the drosscapes or stand-by landscapes - spaces with no fixed forms, structurally unstable and uncertain; post-industrial relicts, handkerchiefs of land enclosed by infrastructures, suburban countryside. These are all residues demanding a new approach, a regeneration process and new relations. All these voids can become dynamic systems for the re-development of critical contexts, fertile terrain with materials and traces for the re-construction of the future environments.
