Re-introducing agri-activities and lands are now commonly identified in cities throughout the world including NYC, Toronto, London, Berlin, Copenhagen and Tokyo. By having growing concern on natural disasters as a result of the global climate change, cities in the world are now seeking for a new planning concept which may provide resilient solutions. Agri-activities/lands, including community gardens on vacant lots, entrepreneurial agriculture on rooftops, and traditional agriculture remaining in the fringe of cities, are multi-functional by not only producing food but providing ecosystem services and restoring deteriorated urban communities, and thus strongly contribute to make the city resilient. The project aims to envision the potential of borderless landscapes with urban/rural mixture created by agri-activities/lands in urban fabrics.
