The city beyond architecture. Sheng-Yuan Huang and the work of Fieldoffice

In Asia, activities are all mixed, and one can find agricultural production sitting side by side with the housing, temples, or high tech factories. It is a new kind of mixite and, if properly managed, it looks the like of something more sustainable than a European periphery. In this context, public spaces are capable of structuring such particular landscape and provide both social spaces and a sense of identity to the communities living these places. In a way, it is now developing what landscape urbanism has been theorising for some time. But here, it is a concrete matter, especially in places the like of Taiwan, where some form of direct democracy is possible. Here, it is something that speaks about what the design culture of most of world future urbanization could become.
