Bromley’s Bluff, involved the creation of a fictional city that examined the simultaneous, continuous, transformation, decomposition, expansion and retraction of urban development in the city. The proposition is not utopic; it can never be constructed. The project was not intended to be a window through which a city was to be viewed but rather as a representation of a hypothetical physical environment constructed through two and three-dimensional scenarios. Bromley’s Bluff is an evolving, constantly changing series of urban plans that acknowledges the problems within current urban development and expands and exaggerates these problems to an extreme.

Bromley’s Bluff ‘s structure is a synthesis of invention, proposition, and designed spaces that involves an investigation of city systems and networks. These myriad systems are transformed into hybridised forms that exhibit multiple purposes. Functionality is illusory – function follows form follows function. Here the functional is abstract; real function outlines fantastic form and real form outlines fantastic function. The network is mapped-out as an ambiguous and spontaneous field of configuring and reconfiguring forms and function. The structure conceptually relates to Deleuze and Guattari’s concept of the rhizome – there is neither beginning nor end. It starts somewhere in the middle and grows or shrinks in all directions, composing and decomposing itself as it moves. Each deviation brings forth potentialities for new propositions while remaining linked (physically or theoretically) to any and every other part of the network. It is a form in search of a function, a function in search of a form, a function in search of a function and a form in search of a form.
