Projects
  • Aqua // Terra : The Island of Reciprocity
    Aqua // Terra : The Island of ReciprocityAqua // Terra is concerned with operating within a moment of prolonged anticipation, uncertainty, transition and flux; the present condition of the Cuban republic. Cuba is on the cusp of change, its insular economy is open to a restricted but highly lucrative and potential seismic tourist dollar. Aqua // Terra proposes three projects that triangulate around the bay of Havana, addressing the concerns of economy, insularity and flux together with the historic relationship between land and sea. The Island of Reciprocity deals directly with an opportunistic and reciprocal relationship between the city and the cruise liners; The Coral Muelle addresses the state owned businesses which must adjust as a consequence of the influx of tourism; and The Archipelago of Reconstruction engages the economy of tourism as it begins to feed into the reconstruction of the city of Havana.
