A Living Border For Sustainable Coexistence: 

Project Description

This thesis introduces the Living Border concept, redefining borders as spaces of exchange and cooperation rather than rigid divisions. The shared concerns for both Koreas, Climate change and food security, could serve as catalysts for cross-border collaboration.

The study proposes the Twin Village model, consisting of Smart Agriculture and Bug Farm Villages to promote interdependence through technology and resource exchange

Ultimately, this thesis demonstrates how architecture and urban design can reframe conflict zones like the DMZ into spaces of connection. The Living Border model provides a globally applicable framework for sustainable and cooperative border development.
