Our visionary project for the Marshes of Mesopotamia in Southern Iraq that won the American Institute of Architects -ME Honor Award in 2013, published in greenprophet in 2013, and Urukia in 2015 is now in the Zukunftsreport 2020 among other prestigious projects under: "Eco-Futurism for a socio-ecological transformation of the swampy landscapes in southern Iraq."
We crafted our vision in 2012 before the marshes of Iraq was added to the World Heritage List by UNESCO in an effort to shed light on the endangered historical and natural site.
