GILA (green infrastructure living architecture) word of the week: Landscape muscle


I don't usually like posting things from design competitions, but I think this one has merit. 
Architects designed a 60 square kilometer community strongly rooted in social justice, environmental sustainability and food and water security. What you have here are ecological corridors, aka "landscape muscle", facilitating social and lifestyle connections, everything from providing an embedded source for agriculture to access to food and water security systems.
Now to see if this will be built!
