Abstract

Architecture is explored here as a series of effects that influence the experience of living on earth. A work of architecture is a kind of terminal of effects that produces certain experiences for those who encounter it. How a place is programmed and built brings various movements into play: human, animal, plant, geological, metereological, hydrological and so on. The site of exploration is the Walker Spruit valley in the City of Tshwane. The site of intervention is a vacant piece of land bordering the Walker Spruit in Sunnyside and is explored as a place where these various movements intersect to put humans in various relations with each other and their surroundings.
