Water-driven and Practice-based Research in the Greater Bay Area (GBA), China
The Liquid Territories Lab develops research and design practices that engage with the complex water ecologies of the Greater Bay Area (GBA). Positioned at the intersection of urbanism, ecology, and infrastructure, the lab investigates how rivers, deltas, and dike-pond systems shape regional spatial structures and everyday life. Its projects combine field-based mapping, collaborative design, and speculative methodologies to reframe water not as a threat or boundary, but as a driving force for adaptive and resilient urban futures. Through teaching, public engagement, and cross-institutional collaborations, Liquid Territories advances new modes of water-driven research and practice across the Pearl River Delta.
