The UK is facing substantial changes which are having a significant impact on low-income households in terms of energy and food poverty. Doddington Estate is now too confronted with rapid shifts within its urban fabric: situated between the Nine Elms Opportunity Area and Battersea Power Station, its surrounding ecosystem is facing considerable changes that will increase issues of social disparity.

This proposal aims to redefine a place that can be as adaptable as its surrounding conditions to secure a future for Doddington Estate. The issues of conformism fostered in such tower blocks is tackled by providing a choice matrix, enabling new personalised outdoor ecologies for flats. Workshops are also provided on-site to empower residents to update their spaces over time, allowing the project to follow its ever-changing evolution process. The project takes the metaphor of weaving communities and social tensions as a driver for a parasitical and symbiotic intervention, weaving between the new and the old concrete structure. The proposal goes in, out and through flats creating a sense of connection between residents by becoming a part of everyday life.
