Stemming from the frequent flooding of the Mississippi River, the futuristic Capital city of Tremé, Louisiana created a resilient architecture that allows it to rise above the far-reaching floodwaters of the Mississippi and harness its floods as a ways and means of migration. Embracing the dynamism of the Mississippi floodplain, Louisiana’s State Capitol building assembles and reassembles at locations across the state as the landscape changes around it. It expresses the collective disorder of the area, while also embodying the freedom of the people of Louisiana.
