Selfie City brings together agricultural production and habitation with modern industries, addressing both issues using city making as a catalyst. This proposal proves that cities can and should provide food, and that there is a need to diminish their enormous footprint, especially with the level of urbanization we live in.

How can people and nature begin to co-exist in balance again? Earth Frame looks at this problem differently, creating an opportunity to recreate nature as it was before humans dominated it. The Earth Frame provides easy access to green spaces without the radical impact of a new environmental system on existing cities.

In the 21st century, the conversion of agricultural crops, lack of innovation and the ignorance of the art of production is leading to the eventual disappearance of local arts such as the production of wicker in Chimbarongo, Chile. Wicker Metamorphosis is a project that imagines a solution to this crisis.
