Through data simulations and performance investigations, this project explores a utopian masterplan idea of what Copenhagen could look life if the city were to be self-sustainable – including urban farming and harvesting of rainwater from climate change related cloudburst situations. Applying this the project explores new spatial and social possibilities that can contribute to better human value and health.
