The countryside has been long forgotten while technology is changing at a rapid pace, something we’re not stopping to consider. In this thesis I aim to catalogue the current state of the countryside and it’s near future. Something that’s right in front of us but that we currently lack the resources to realise. The research work will be delivered in the form of speculative architecture and storytelling. It is presented as a book, with each chapter focusing on a different aspect of this new countryside and its potential. This research provides a platform for us to begin to think about these new scenarios and future prospects in order to design sensitively. 

A majority of the work is delivered through montages. The compositions utilise already existing elements in society and combine them to produce new spaces that tells us something. I chose to use montages as I felt like they were a successful way to summarise the research of a broad subject field.
