Non-linear City

With discussion of personal experience as a citizen and designer, we were curious about how linearity in city plan put constrain on the living as individuals. It is obvious that city planning and mapping evolves and promote a certain level of sanity in structures. To do that, uncountable lines, squares, rectangular, spheres are used to separate our living space. We wanted to explore more on the finding of a more humanity centric and sustainable living possibilities within the structural and constitutional divisions of city. As a designer, instead of rebuilding a new structure of constrain and city planning, we aim to explore the possibility of reusing the existing structure and try to dissolve the presence of linearity. By highlighting the social problems such as ignorance of poverty, social stratification, traffic jam, etc., we want to bring new perspectives in reconstructing our living space.
