"The biodegradable stickers are made from a blend of paper pulp, coco peat, perlite, and seeds, with an adhesive system that bonds to degraded masonry without synthetic materials."
"Over time, the seeds embedded in the substrate germinate and take root in existing cracks, transforming neglected surfaces into self-sustaining ecosystems."
"The project maps four escalating stages of urban decay, identifying each stage as a viable entry point for the stickers, promoting ecological growth."
"The name for this sequence, decay, attach, grow, doubles as the project's driving logic, emphasizing a new approach to urban decay."
Cities are designed for human use, but urban decay offers potential for other species. Yasemin Keyif's Green Anarchy project proposes using biodegradable stickers on damaged surfaces to foster growth. These stickers, made from natural materials, bond to crumbling facades and allow embedded seeds to germinate, creating ecosystems. The project maps stages of urban decay, suggesting that greater damage provides more opportunities for ecological growth, thus redefining the relationship between urban environments and nature.
