The SOILution : Floating Ecologies
Project description
Our project reimagines Belgrade’s post-industrial cement factory through phytoremediation, transforming contamination into regeneration. A phased approach develops a network of floating athletes’ villages along the river, creating vibrant communities that allow nature to heal and reclaim the site. As development expands onto land, the project becomes a model for living where humans and nature coexist.
