PRECEDENTS
Existing projects that are relevant to our work—through their subject matter, spatial qualities, or programmatic potential—are analyzed below. Some are built works and others are speculative, but not all are exemplary; we use the precedent study process to both be inspired and to critique. Projects fall into five categories: rehabilitation, infrastructure, energy, urbanism, and remediation.
