12/Factory Habitat

Program: Silk Garment and Manufacturing Factory +Mulberry Planting Orchards Location: Bush Terminal, Brooklyn, New York

The Factory Habitat reinvents the typology of pier, factory and park through interweaving the production spaces of silk and garment with mulberry planting and the coastline habitats. The landscaped structure creates a thickened city edge that resists the degradation of the harbor and challenges the dichotomy between nature and city, and between efficiency and natural cycles. The factory is organized both through a system of interrated modules of rhetoric surfaces that trasnfer from planting beds to architetural elements, as well as through time, the cycle of events and seasons.
