Restitching the Urban Fabric: No strings attached Part 2 Project 2025 John Kirtley University of Kent | UK This proposal confronts the fleeting shadow of fast fashion, transforming its discarded threads into a vibrant tapestry of renewal. Exploring the future of work, the recycling studio is more than a building, it is a living loom, a machine that interweaves the echoes of past craftsmanship with the urgent rhythm of a circular future.Through an intricate dance of literal and phenomenal transparency, the hub's very skin reveals its inner workings - the alchemy of recycling, the rebirth of fibre, the meticulous craft of creation. Here, spatial identity is not static but fluid, blending the city's memory with the evolving narratives of repurposed materials and collaborative hands. It is a place where every stitch tells a story of regeneration, where history is re-spun, and new identities are woven into the very fabric of Southeast London. Tutor(s)
