Introduction\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\r\n

The change in future demographics, technology, and environment will result in opportunities for both individual, community, and work sectors to be empowered for food security and sovereignty.\u00a0 The underlying hypothesis is that future urban food production becomes the potential social equaliser and becomes an attractive job sector that ensures both Singapore\u2019s food security and sovereignty. In an controlled manner,\u00a0 the architecture and urban infrastructure can both support urban food production and ensures community welfare.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

Hope\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\r\n

The thesis seeks to re-imagine the possibilities of public housing with a holistic approach towards food, energy, health, and well-being. Rationales based on the circular economy concept where waste is a resource, the proposal reinterpret urban food production logistics as a close loop system with food clusters requires food cultivation spaces (functional) and food sharing spaces (community) for the future food industry and urban communities. The Thesis imagines an intensive productive and living district, interweaving loops of food, community spaces, energy generation spaces and micro farms create an environment that facilitates a paradigm shift in our concept of daily living - with food production, job opportunities, learning and physical activities from home.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

\r\n

To incorporate mariculture as an urban ecological strategy and food source, an undulated seawall with tidal terrains is applied as a modified coastal defense line that both protects the offshore communities from rising sea level and provides a productive interface for marine-life cultivation. <\/span>
<\/span>A continuous line of coastal defense stretching from Marina Barrage to Changi Airport protects the newly expanded offshore communities and the inland area of Singapore.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n

Conclusion<\/b><\/p>\r\n

Food should not be regarded as the product; instead, food should be reinstated to our local governance. The creation, storage, and distribution of food resources through urban dwellers\u2019 participation informs us a more responsible understanding of the current supply chain, provides job opportunities, cultivates a healthier food habit, and enhances food sovereignty. This hypothesis drives the development of my thesis motivation and strategies. The project speculates on the future impacts on Singapore\u2019s food security and sovereignty and questions Singapore\u2019s role by being the vested interest benefits of the current food system. Further anticipation of the goal is that urban food production becomes the main component of Singapore\u2019s economy, advocating a unique cultural, ecological, and economic sustainability.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
