The proposal of Lebbeus Woods addresses the impact of war not only on human social structures but also on the land. Woods proposes a new ecological utopia, Terra Nova, a single continuous mega- structure that accommodates interactions between humanity and the natural environment. Impressed with the topography of the Demilitarized Zone, its wealth of lush mountains and valleys, Woods projects a utopian idea, a city covered with metal sheets providing warm, protective shelter for all inhabitants. Terra Nova is a city that transcends time, “a city of reformation” that may one day become a new, fertile Earth kept in reserve for future generations.
