The project involves retrofitting the post-industrial waterfront landscape into an inhabitable energy reserve to address the stark global austerity, social loneliness, and fuel poverty affecting London. The Greenwich Peninsula delineates the current urban regeneration practice where homes are isolated sanctuaries, and the river ecology is staged as an acquiescent appreciation. Reidentifying the emotive significance of the vanishing coal gas field as a third landscape, the riverside rewilding proposal embodies a marsh blanket embracing humans, non-human organisms, and energy, creating a symbiotic community mediated by the tidal Thames. The scheme incorporates retrofitting industrial infrastructure integrated with an anaerobic digesting system and a water-source heat pump (WSHP) chain, promoting responsibly sustainable living. The technological transformation of waterfront living to remediate the contaminated waterfront ecology constructs an ecological metropolis and a novel sustainable Thames ritual that can alleviate social loneliness and energy inaccessibility.

The new canal flowing across the peninsula reinvigorates the Greenwich marsh ecology. The scheme retrofits the existing industrial and post-industrial landscape, with the purpose of sustaining the self-sufficient living of humans and other organisms.

The project site as a postindustrial urban entity is transformed into a symbiotic marshland reserve where each living being is a custodian. The retrofitted infrastructures have been reprogrammed to meet energy, climate, and remediation demands.

Narrating Greenwich Symbiotic Development

The sequential symbiotic development narrative as a visual proposal at the reimagined Greenwich Peninsula encompasses strategies to revitalise the values of on-site resources, establish ecological cohabitation, and imbue ecological democracy.

Designing the Ecological Metamorpolis

Post-industrial infrastructure is treated as energetic and emotive platform for urban rewilding. Subsequent research encompassed studying the structure of wearable warmth and creating symbiotic panels bridging the disconnected waterfront ecology.

The multi-scalar symbiotic cohabitation panel, as a result of a sustainable riverside ritual, inculcate the essence of reciprocity to the post-industrial waterfront, overcoming a sense of materialised and misappropriated ecology.
