Summary:

"Fallow City is an intervention in the typical fabric of suburbia, in the monoculture of private spaces and cultivated dreams. Taking the current crisis of the suburbs as a chance, and the most extreme situation of Detroit as its site, the project aims to develop new scenarios and new typologies for the emerging fallow cityscapes. The interventions propose more imaginative and public ways of using or mis-using the suburban forms. ... A fallow season creates an interruption where unusual uses and forms can flourish"-- Sheet [1].
