I-City/We-City
In sunmer 2012 as a part of Documenta13 a collaborative exhibition and exploration on the topic of global disaster was introduced. What would the world look like if, after a series of natural disasters, the world was flooded and inhibition would be (almost) impossible? How could humanity survive?
MVRDV / The Why Factory was asked to speculate on what tools for survival would be needed. How would people still live together, and if so, what community values would prevail? An inquisitive design research proposes Community clusters designed around the level of performance on food production and a complete integration of waste and natural cycles, 3d printed sedimentation, and exhaust-gasses stored in nano-tech skins, forming floating bubble-like structures.
