<p dir="ltr">““The cities are not a static urban structure but a dynamic, living organism, shaped by a complex web of interdependent systems. The intricate and close relationship between the city and agriculture (which used to be called the Garten Staat in German) is a connection often overlooked and should be resurrected in modern city planning. </p><p dir="ltr">By proposing the full recovery of the ancient floating garden system, this project seeks to reclaim the city’s ecological foundations. Through this lens, the project underscores the potential for sustainable urban practices to play a pivotal role in restoring the symbiosis between natural and human ecology.”</p>
