Worldwide de-industrialisation processes expose the alteration of urban landscapes. These processes led and still lead to the relocation of industrial areas from city centres to new peripheries, hence creating spaces that one could call “residuals”.

These residuals offer the opportunity to gain new places for the city by transforming them, and Shanghai urban centre is not excluded from this condition. Residuals are defined in this project as ‘interstitial landscapes’ which operate in the in-between of the existing and the new. Whose intervention requires a set of alternative conditions that enable a resilient approach to the environmental burdens and threats resulting from global fast-urban development in contemporary cities.
