Spaces + Species: [Proto]Urban Environments | Cork, Ireland

Understood as “hospitable” city space, the vision for Bishop Lucey Park is to form an expanded idea of urban space. It is a type of soft-urbanism; one that configures the site as a series of evolving liminal fields - mediating diverse social activities and changing temporal environments. What it produces is a new material-aesthetic between architecture and nature – spaces and species that reflexively develop across multiple scales and conjectures the site as a living sensorium.
