This installation explores the urban dwelling of the future. Described as "an optimistic research machine", it presents possibilities for day-to-day city life transformed by climate change and continuing globalisation. The elements exhibited include adaptations of familiar domestic objects like a "shitake" kitchen sink with mushroom bed beneath, or other more speculative 'white goods' of the future such as an urban chicken house. It is not climate change itself but how society reacts that is researched here: what effect will it have on how we live, on our urban structures and domestic space?

Tom Matton describes his practice as situated "somewhere between object-design, society-shape, ecological city planning and artist-activism" exploring "the small Utopias and interruptions of daily life" and "connections between traditional countryside living and contemporary mega-city lifestyle."
