"With the exception of Pompei and perhaps Chernobil, the city of Famagusta, stands today as a unique worldwide example of a city without residents. A city left behind in time, with no one allowed to live in it. It stands still and isolated as if in a surrealists dream: A desolate landscape, only a sad parallax of it’s former iconic seaside view, reminiscent of images from Antonioni’s film “The Eclipse”. A product perhaps of an anachronistic point of view. Yet, what is now called a “No Man’s Land zone” remains an example of a city that in its infant state of growth, maintains all the potential for becoming an Every Man’s Land. A City for all people. What can one do? What can be proposed as a future? How can the issues that led to this condition be resolved? We looked at the issue of Famagusta through the lens of parametric design: A desing process of no fixed result, no ideal scenario, but rather a set of conditions that we aim to formulate through basic values: Integration, Interconnectivity, Inclusivity and Openness." http://diastudiox.virtualcy.com/... - Amira
