city of a thousand courtyards
City of a Thousand Courtyards started with an analysis of the common tomato plant’s logical and formative patterns and applied them at an urban scale. Through the use of landform design as a base, the project aims to mitigate severe flood patterns present in Calgary, Alberta.

The project becomes a vibrant backdrop for continuing life on earth and decreasing our
ecological footprint. The need for a mixture in agrarian and urban life is more than ever before. The city is thriving, with an intricate network of roadways, building densities and farming mixed into it. You can start to get a picture of how the small mounds of the tomato plant have driven the design of this eco-opolis.
