Productive Landscapes, PoroCity by Muhammed Aziz is an architecture, landscape and urbanism project about regenerative agriculture, modular housing and urban porosity.
The proposal is set at the edge of Subiaco and asks whether productive landscapes can help create more resilient communities through food, water, housing and shared civic space.
Project image
The project visual shows how urban greenery and productive landscapes become part of the architectural proposal rather than a surface treatment.
Portfolio material
The embedded project material gives more context on the PoroCity proposal, including the urban strategy and productive landscape system.
Regenerative agriculture as urban strategy
PoroCity responds to climate change, biodiversity loss and damaged water systems by treating food production and landscape as part of the city, not something pushed outside it.
The proposal combines a transit-oriented mixed-use development with rooftop urban farms, kitchen gardens, organic markets, roof gardens, constructed wetlands and raingardens.
What makes the project useful
- It links regenerative agriculture to housing and civic space.
- It uses urban porosity as a design idea, not only a title.
- It connects Subiaco and West Leederville through transit-oriented thinking.
- It treats food, water and community as architectural infrastructure.
- It includes modular housing and communal living as part of the proposal.
Regenerative project checklist
For productive landscape projects, make the system easy for the reader to follow.
- What resource is being regenerated?
- How does the landscape support daily life?
- Where do housing, food, water and public space connect?
- Which drawings show the system clearly?
Architecture Social view
Stephen’s recruiter view is that landscape-led projects are strongest when the reader can see the working system. PoroCity has a clear advantage because it connects urban farming, housing, water and civic life in one argument.
Showcase your architecture project
If your project explores landscape, agriculture, climate or housing, Architecture Social Showcase can help present it clearly.
- Lead with the urban or environmental question.
- Show the system, not just the image.
- Explain how people use the spaces.
- Connect the project to a clear site and programme.
