Feral Museum: Architecture for Human and Non-Human Coexistence
I’ve become more interested in the relationship between people, nature, and the small environmental changes we often ignore in everyday life. Through SKN, I started exploring architecture in a more experimental and atmospheric way — observing landscapes, making physical models, testing materials, and thinking about how people emotionally experience a site.
Feral Museum is a project based on Pomona Island in Manchester. The project combines bridges, meditation spaces, art studios, and ecological observation into a continuous journey through the landscape. Through the process of developing the project, I began exploring bio-based materials, ecological systems, and how architecture might coexist with birds, plants, water, and changing weather conditions over time.
A lot of the work developed through drawing, model making, tectonic studies, and spending time observing the site itself. Through changing views, material conditions, and spatial atmospheres, the project encourages people to slow down, notice overlooked details, and reconnect with the environment around them, while also exploring how architecture can quietly adapt alongside natural processes over time.
