The dysfunctional acts of water management in South Florida act as a catalyst for a proposal for re-interpreting the boundary of the Everglades and the urban communities of West Palm Beach and Miami. By investigating flow patterns and options for reducing the impact of the high pressure canals on the Everglades flow, a new architectural language is developed. The building invites the surrounding urban comunities to begin to inhabit this in/between territory. Natural filtration processes through local vegetation become an important part of the fabric of the building. A parallel and new type of architectural interface between the Everglades and the inhabitants of Miami and West Palm Beach is proposed. A balanced ‘Hydro-Ecology’ that delivers solutions of water control for the region and creates inhabitable ‘wet landscapes’ for the Floridian population.
