"When there is nothing, everything becomes possible". The project aims to regenerate New York through its very own anti-thesis. The strategy is to engage with the context of the site, Manhattan island, by complimenting it with the elements of its contradiction. Where the viewer expects architecture, expressed typically in above-ground solid structures, the architect will submerge with voids beneath the soil. Where the user expects infrastructure, the architect will embed cultural programs. Where order is expected, in a mad instant, chaos will break in.

Abstract

"When there is nothing, everything becomes possible". The project aims to regenerate New York through its very own anti-thesis. The strategy is to engage with the context of the site, Manhattan island, by complimenting it with the elements of its contradiction. Where the viewer expects architecture, expressed typically in above-ground solid structures, the architect will submerge with voids beneath the soil. Where the user expects infrastructure, the architect will embed cultural programs. Where order is expected, in a mad instant, chaos will break in.
