The raft, the envelope, and the garden, or emergency, temporariness and permanence respectively, is an ongoing project. It investigates the minimum spatial requirements of current refugee routes, from escaping war to creating a new homeland. Moreover, it maps potential stimuli for transforming the dated urban building stock and the scattered rural settlements.
