BORDERLINE
Francis McCloskey Syracuse University School of Architecture Roger Hubeli, Julia Czerniak
Fast changes in environment, economy, and technology drive the growth/shrinkage of supporting infrastructure; often rendering the built architecture too static and slow to adapt.1 The linear edge of land/water borderlines can become an instrument for transformation, as an infrastructure that deploys responsive architectural types that are more ephemeral, reactionary, and compromising with change. The capacity for architecture to float offers the advantage of mobility and interchangeability.
