Today so many aspects of our everyday lives are dependent on nature, yet remain removed from it. Here, two speculative projects by the architect May Leung explore how nature can nurture in ways that space cannot, by creating self‐sustainable systems to change the way that we think about production, consumption, leisure and the routine of our working lives.
