Synthesizing Adaptable Plug-ins

A self-sustaining community plug-in, that meets its water requirement through a sequential natural purification system designed to reconnect the fragmented ecological layers and act as social public spaces for the people, is envisioned. These water systems become a part of the larger water system of the canal and its source river.
Physical contact with the water is enabled and together with the impacts of its benefits, the man-water association is established in the canal system. The plug-in has then generated a tale of its own, not necessarily mythical one but a contemporary narrative, which helps preserve the system for the years to come.https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B3egz3aw6PMufkFxa1RBV1VUbF9MZkFIM2ZMMC1uYVdDYW5sZjlFNFVwSW5YZ2ZBcnYyVVE?usp=sharing
