How could we create a space that encourage the merage of culture, both local and foreign, in a tiny space that crowd with high dense skyscrapers? Metabolism might be the answer...
40Honorable MentionEco FavelasWe chose Sao Paulo as the location for our project. By distributing the individual functions inside the form, we wanted to show how a vertical city could look like. In the spirit of sustainable development, we propose several solutions: kinetic floors, rainwater, quantum glass, aquaphonica.
0Honorable MentionFluid SpacesSpace is consisting of multi-layers like transportation, working, living, and the Presence of every individual person. The project "Fluid Spaces" is an architectural response to all these dynamic interactions. In this project, space is created within self-optimizable fluid expanded in a 3d magnetic field based on the evaluation of all different layers.

0The GapThe concept of the skyscraper is based on the idea that the skyscraper should engage with the city. This is done by connecting the now two separate buildings together with bridges, a vertical connection throughout the whole building open to the public. The gap allows for social interactions and an open connection from one side of the plot to the other.
61SKYSCRAPER OF LIFEOur project located in the center of Warsaw is a multi-functional skyscraper that solves the problem of vacancy in the city.
162IN SILICO FLUXES"A closed city can be designed and operated from the top down; it's a city that belongs to the owners. An open city is a place from the bottom up; it belongs to the people." This proposal explores a design methodology that works based on a combination of principles including biology, computation, urban design. It explores a non-humanistic view of urbanism.
168RE GENERATORThe initiative came about as a result of seeing how the "wetland" environment in Hangzhou, China, was being impacted by rapid population increase. The traditional and present construction methods are no longer appropriate. China's population will keep expanding, and if curent construction methods comtinued, this ecology will be utterly destroyed.
