Pocket Sanctuaries

Abstract

Gouraud street, in Gemmayze, has a number of unbuildable or abandoned plots either by the side of the road or riddled around the area. My aim is to reconvert those hidden spots into little pocket sanctuaries, into ecological sanctuaries and into socially vibrant areas all the whilst transforming Gouraud street to connect those ecological islands. Aiming to provide open spaces, better the microclimate of Gemmayze and provide experiences that would only be meant for Gemmayze.
