This series explores the architecture of man and how nature is used as an extension of our homes. We make our own little castles to create individual space within the urban sprawl. In return, nature offers us a form of sanctuary and privacy in this once agrarian landscape.
When we look at how we deploy and employ nature, we begin to understand the relationship by identifying it’s purpose. Trees are used as devices, as means of renegotiation of the physical boundaries we create within a liminal space. Everything permeates, channels that come from the home, everything that feeds it. By creating these Castles, we are responding to our most basic needs.
