Miradas ordenadas

Nature is order, but it is also disorder. Playing with that idea, we will reflect on the Vertical Forest at different scales.

Is there any order in a landscape, or is there a reason for it to be that way? What about a garden? Why is one design chosen over another? Where is there order and disorder? Are all leaves the same? Are they symmetrical? What about their cells? Does a garden contain only the species that were initially introduced? Are there animals? What role do they play? What will the gardens of the future be like?

In this activity, we’ll engage in participatory and experimental activities to try to answer all these questions—and any others that may arise during the activity. Using dichotomous keys, magnifying glasses, microscopes, field notebooks, and design journals, you’ll discover all the secrets hidden in this unique Vertical Forest.
