and The City

The project was triggered by the corona world crises and as a respond to the social distance instruction, encouraging decentralization increasing the demand to move out of the city. Out of the believe that climate change is still the biggest challenge we are facing (humans and nature as one), we wish to promote relevant and actual subjects in the daily urban plan discussion and bring interdisciplinary voices into the architectural field. The project was initiated by Arch. Prima Surya Abdullah (Jakarta, Indonesia) and Arch. Hagar Abiri (Berlin, Germany).
