The article discusses the works of Frank Lloyd Wright (Broadacre city), Ludwig Hilberseimer (New Regional Pattern) and Andrea Branzi (Agronica) in their utopian vision for farming in the city. These visions are brought back today in discussion because of the increasing concerns on food safety, biodiversity and ecological sustainability around the world. This artcile delves into the “history of urban form perceived through the spatial, ecological and infrastructural import of agricultural production.” The author argues for an agricultural system well conceived as the basis for urban form instead of just an add-on element to it. Interestinly, the condition of alternate workers in Vietnam today (between factory and farming job) was actually what early modernist urban planners and architects had predicted a long time ago, whose illustration usually depicted vast countryside landscape with punctuated “urban” buildings. It’s not, however, that the countryside “invades” the city, but rather it is the “dissolution” of urban figure into the field, or the productive landscape. Early works of Wright, Hilberseimer and Branzi all show a particular type of urban decentralization and integration into the agricultural landscape. The “natural system” in those projects “brought exisiting natural environments into new relationships with planned agricultural and industrial landscapes.”
