About the Hypothetical Development Organization

Members of this organization begin the narrative process by examining city neighborhoods and commercial districts for compelling structures that appear to have fallen into disuse —“hidden gems” of the built environment. In varying states of repair, these buildings suggest only stories about the past, not the future. As a public service, H.D.O. invents a hypothetical future for each selected structure.

Intro to Emergent Urbanism

His most recent post is the first part of a series that will be published as an entire article entitled “The Principles of Emergent Urbanism” at International Journal of Architectural Research. This first part of the series, and hopefully the entire published article gives a great introduction to the concept Helie names “Emergent Urbanism.” In my opinion as a Market Urbanist, Mathieu’s most remarkable contributions to urbanism revolve around the concepts of “emergence” as it relates to urban patterns, particularly with regards to Hayek’s ideas about “emergent order” or “spontaneous order”.

Wild West Side - Société d'architecture de travail

To be built on top of the Hudson Yards, an undeveloped rail yard running 8 blocks on the Manhattan’s west side, the Wild West Side is a model for the future of New York City in its ambition for sustainability and programmatic diversity. Designed to take advantage of the latest in Green technology, the Wild West Side creates an ecological infrastructure that links the buildings, streetscapes and park to become a neighborhood that is its own natural living system, unplugged from the services of the city. The Wild West Side Park is a richly textured magic carpet that responds to the architecture, infrastructure, topography and ecology of the site to create a collection of super parks, extending and building upon the linear concept of the High Line Park to its south.
