Future Spring

This project centers residents of Bed-Stuy & Crown Heights, transforming a vacant lot into a dynamic, community-driven space for food production, skill-sharing, and environmental resilience. Grounded in mutual aid, regenerative land practices and Indigenous design principles, integrating community and technology systems like solar, wind, and water-harvesting systems to create an interactive, collectively-sustained ecosystem. By engaging with residents in co-designing & mapping existing care networks, the vacant lot becomes a model for reclaiming urban space through collective stewardship. This work envisions and fosters a future where Bed-Stuy remains a place of belonging, intergenerational care, and shared knowledge.
