“Especially between 1890 and 1940 a new culture (the Machine Age?) selected Manhattan as laboratory: a mythical island where the invention and testing of a metropolitan lifestyle and its attendant architecture could be pursued as a collective experiment in which the entire city became a factory of man-made experience, where the real and the natural ceased to exist.”“The plotting of its streets and blocks announces that the subjugation, if not obliteration, of nature is its true ambition”.Rem Koolhaas, Delirious New YorkAlthough people and nature could claim autonomy from controlling principles in cities; in his critique of the grid system in Delirious New York, Koolhaas alleges that they are still the subjects of exercising power in the physical (movement) and psychological constraints. In order to efficiently utilize precious footage in the city, people have been relegated to negative spaces and plants are arranged on to sidewalks, which deviates from the moral obligation of the space to be a living organism that allows freedom of movement and occupation in space. In the context of modernized politics and capitalist globalization, we forfeit the imagination of space.The aim of this thesis proposes to reframe the role of the interior design discipline and designer in giving agency to the natural processes of growth and decomposition to activate public autonomy in public space. In doing so, this project aims to facilitate people’s free movement and creates a symbiotic relationship in the urban context. Through activation of event space and space of natural growth, a POPS (privately-owned public space) will create an equitable access to the interior life of a city. By appropriating the natural pattern of people mobilization in space and natural ecology, this thesis will activate interior space as a platform for public agency.Located in the privately-owned public atrium of 590 Madison Ave, a space which failed to meet its original purpose of being “exuberant,” “elegant,” an “oasis,” and “a tree-filled conservatory and public living room rolled into one,” this project reimagines an inner-city greenhouse as a flexible temporary green infrastructure. The structure and programs will be designed to be altered by occupants to facilitate riot, flash mob, music performance, and farming to emphasize freedom of movement for people and nature.
