Today, the industry of health and well-being attracts a lot of attention and investment. We have generated a widest system of therapies, services and environments associated with health, well-being, and lifestyle. However, if we look at the spaces that house such elements, we can notice that they are machines for service delivery, highly engineered and institutionalised. This project by Anna Shpuntova, developed within the context of the Architectural Association School of Architecture, suggests having a look at the inner peripheral areas of London that come from an industrial past and, together with certain conflicts and challenges, offer us access to an amazing landscape, layered educational and healthcare infrastructure, and proximity to the central city. An indicative neighbourhood in the Wandsworth corridor is used as a test-bed to show how these areas can become a new urban setting for a care ecology and new kinds of spaces it generates at different scales.
