King Toronto 位于多伦多东部中央商务区高楼大厦和西北部低层住宅区之间的过渡区。该建筑位于三个 20 世纪社区公园的交汇处，被组织成一个传统的周边街区，中心有一个公园和广场。广场本身由两种截然不同的氛围所界定：郁郁葱葱的景观森林与城市硬景观庭院相得益彰。在广场周围，国王多伦多升起，因为体素集向上挤压，为生活、工作和购物创造空间。新的城市组织像一个新的有机框架一样包裹着现有的遗产建筑。每个体素都设置为一个房间的大小，从街道网格旋转 45 度以增加对光线和空气的接触。在基地，体素提升以提供穿过庭院的通道。屋顶表面起伏，让阳光穿透街道，在这个过程中为每个单元创造绿色露台空间。由此产生的城市体积是多伦多普遍存在的塔楼和裙楼的根本替代品。它与 Moshe Sadie 在蒙特利尔的 Habitat 67 中提出的一些最具革命性的想法相呼应，但它不是岛上的乌托邦式实验，而是嵌套在城市中心。50 年后，Habitat 从独特的原型演变为城市类型学。

一个城市可能有教堂、博物馆或市政厅。带有公共项目和公共空间的公共建筑——内外。但是 99% 的城市是我们生活、工作、学习和购物的地方。这些建筑大多是基于将可用总面积用于私人用途的零和游戏。但是，如果每栋建筑都只关心自己，那么这座城市将成为一个缺乏共同点的私人空间的贫瘠之地。要开启我们的城市，我们需要激活 99% 以产生巨大影响，而不仅仅是坚持 1% 的公共地标。

寄生是开辟空间以欢迎公共寄生虫的礼物。主动招揽入侵者。建筑师必须构建的每一个机会都代表着一个机会，可以创建一个比现状更有吸引力、更有吸引力、更适合公众的框架。一种文化机构，在其中心创建一个公共房间或在其中心创建一个公共通道。一个解放地面并打开屋顶形成室外舞台的剧院。乐高的家，地面和屋顶成为公共广场和层叠的游乐场。海上的一个城市街区，像吊桥一样敞开，将船只汇集在里面。沿纵轴和纵轴吸引公众的孵化器。一个城市项目，将整体平台化为由山峰和山谷、洞穴和峡谷组成的立体景观。一个巴黎街区，将城市街区翻了个底朝天。最后，一对米兰式的高楼由悬链线连接在一起，遮蔽了下方的遮蔽广场。

寄生建筑是寄生程序作为受欢迎的共生体的住宿。由于许多过去需要公共空间的活动已经迁移到网上——购物、教育和社交互动——公共领域正在失去物流需求。离开舒适的触摸屏的其余原因是偶然巧合和人际互动的快感。随着建筑物内的程序随着时间的推移而变化和变化，它成为使目的地保持活力的寄生程序。与大街上传统的前门不同，最显眼的地址是内部、下方或上方的空间。主人的房子把慷慨变成了一种生存策略。侵入者成为最终的占有者。
A city may have a church, a museum, or a city hall. Public buildings with public programs and public spaces - inside and out. But 99 percent of the city is where we live, work, learn, and shop. Most of these buildings are based on the zero-sum game of using the total available area for their own private purposes. But if every building cared only for itself, the city would become a poor place of private spaces deprived of common ground. To turn our cities on, we need to activate the 99 percent for massive impact and not just stick to the one percent of public landmarks.

Hosting is the gift of carving out space to welcome a public parasite. The active solicitation of trespassers. Every chance an architect has to build represents an opportunity to create a framework that is more inviting, more engaging, more accommodating to the public than the status quo. A cultural institution that creates a public room at its heart - or a public passage at its center. A theater that liberates the ground and opens the roof to form outdoor arenas. A home for LEGO where the ground and roof become public squares and cascading playgrounds. A city block on the sea that opens up like a drawbridge to funnel ships inside. An incubator that draws the public along the longitudinal and vertical axes. An urban project that dissolves the monolithic podium into a voxelated landscape of peaks and valleys, caves and canyons. A Parisian district that turns the citv block inside out and upside down. And finally, a Milanese pair of high rises united by a catenary shading a sheltered plaza underneath.

Hosting architecture is the accommodation of the parasitic program as a welcome symbiote. As many activities that used to require public space have migrated online - shopping, education, and social interaction -the public realm is losing ground from logistical necessity. The remaining reason to leave the comfort of your touch screen is the thrill of casual coincidence and human interaction. As the programs inside the buildings transform and change over time, it becomes the parasitic program that keeps the destination alive. Rather than the traditional front door on Main Street, the most prominent address becomes the space within, underneath, or above. The house that hosts turns generosity into a survival strategy. The trespasser becomes the ultimate occupant.
