Drawing on the historic Rundale system of land sharing—by which small strips of land were co-operatively managed and periodically redistributed, ensuring environmental egalitarianism—Tideaways proposes a transformation of affluent leisure, its social experience, and its environmental impact. Instead of further expansion, development is condensed at strategic locations along the coastline. Settlement extends onto the coastal shelf to include floating, seasonally-removable elements. Living spaces move with the ebb and flow of the tide, sometimes exposed and sometimes concealed. The restorative qualities of the natural elements, and their interactions with social arrangements, are greatly amplified in this responsive kinetic landscape.
