Entropic City

Entropic City is an urban proposal that responds to rising sea levels by reconceptualizing the relationship between city and ground. The urban organization rejects a static ground and instead embraces a fluid and reactive landscape. As infrastructural systems are exposed and elevated, the ground is allowed a new freedom of responsiveness. Amid this new paradigm of a constantly shifting ground, new typologies appear and shape urban life.
