How can rooftop spaces offer more than just artificial land driven by capitalism?
Can a skyscraper leave a positive legacy in the strata of geology?
‘Rewilding the sky’ describes new altruism in which we can share our environment and spaces with other living beings - both physical and digital.
In this public talk, Singaporean Landscape Architects Salad Dressing will share a body of constructed and speculative projects that narrate the stories of ‘rewilding the sky’, and reimagine the present moment of climate and ecological crisis oscillating between a far-distant future and past.
The notion of ‘Rewilding the Sky’ emerges from the rise of taller, denser skyscrapers which reflect both our desires and anxieties. The rooftop garden is now a popular trend in landscape architecture design.
