NORTH NEST RESIDENT HANDBOOK (HUMAN EDITION)

North Nest Resident Guide (Human Edition) was created for The Nature of Cities international round table ‘What does a more-than-human city look like?’ Exploring radical interspecies urbanism through the lens of multispecies cohabitation, it is rooted in speculative architecture and ecological reciprocity, reimagining urban living as a shared habitat—where humans are one of many residents in a dynamic, self-sustaining ecosystem. The guide challenges anthropocentric design norms, offering a vision of city life that prioritises interspecies ethics, ecological stewardship, and adaptive coexistence. It invites readers to consider the evolving rhythms of multispecies citizenship, where dwelling is an act of care, and urban futures are built on reciprocity, attunement, and respect for the more-than-human world.
