Continuity: An Epochal Island Eutopia

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

This thesis imagines a group of people who sought a way of living that considers the thousands of generations who will come after them. They set out to build a city that embraces natural cycles and spatial limits in the pursuit of longevity. The result is an eutopia, a good place, where individual mortality is the animus of community continuity.
