This winning competition entry for the Architectural League of New York postulates the reclamation of the void, with intersections being the main arena of interventions, given the prime locations, interventions are readily catalytic; they are "systemic nuances" that excite, fuel, and vitalize their vicinities. The black and white dichotomy of poche and void becomes blurred and interchangeable through the introduction of a spectrum of greys at the intersections- a new context will arise from new infrastructural potentials, and new spatial designs to enhance the versatility and flexibility of the grid in a new era. The grid thereby transforms into the plaid.
