A movement that emerged in post-war Japan imagining cities as an organic model that can adapt and evolve with its user. Building on this concept, this research investigates different strategies used in the original movement, can fit into contemporary residential design. Through theoretical guidelines and case studies throughout different mediums ranging in size and typology, the study examines how Metabolist ideas have persisted through time and transformed into design systems and open-source practices. These insights are translated into a design proposal for a vertical student village in Berlin.MetabolismmodularityprefabricationThesis
