The inhabitants
of the Kiribati Islands
maintain a strong communitarian
way of life. As connection between
everyone, the traditions have a great role
to play, and among them, agriculture.
Insuring the durability of the food production system
and the associated know how is insuring the capacity of
reconstruction and durability of the community. Shore Street
promotes the gardens as part of two ecosystems : a biological ecosystem,
and a social ecosystem. These two aspects meet each other in the conception
of multifamily housing units around the Floating Gardens.
