This edition of studio-as-book brings together short essays, photographs, and design work by Design Studio 4 (DS04), tutored by Paolo Zaide and Tom Budd.It presents design as a synthetic key to connecting ecology with an urbanism that does not contradict its natural or artificial environment. While much has been written about the theory of 'ecological urbanism, ' this book focuses on its practical application-examining how it can shape the ethos, methodology, and impact of design teaching. From 2021 to 2024, the studio explored edge conditions along the River Thames through the lens of 'ecological urbanism, ' using Gravesend, Southend-on-Sea, and Tilbury as case studies. Once home to heavy industry and commerce, these areas now lack access to public transport, services, and employment, while surrounding farmland and salt marshes host fragile ecologies. Studio 4 challenged traditional boundaries, employing analogue and digital strategies to plot, stage, and speculate on the futures of these shifting, uncertain fields.
