Urban Tailor / Restitching the Urban Fabric

Beyond the ruination and exploitation of Detroit’s shattered urban network , lays an opportunity to link together the spliced vectors of the ruins and the modernity of the surrounding context. Within the spliced fabric, the quality of ruins gave rise to the diagrammatic spatial construct which envelops the theory of overlapping and blending networks. These networks collide with each other to create a physical reaction which develops inhabitable nodes of revitalization within the ruin context of Park ave. The result of the collided networks was a programmatic link of the existing torn urban network.
