Idigna Renewal Islands

"From neglected islands to ecological lifelines" the Tigris River (Idigna), once the heart of Mesopotamian civilization, now faces severe pollution. This project reimagines its islands through ecological and architectural interventions. Using Idigna Island as a prototype, it creates a replicable river regeneration model centered on research and culture

ORPHIC

Orphic, meaning, mysterious and entrancing; beyond ordinary understanding, was chosen due to the hidden structure behind the long spruce trees. And giving a mysterious sensation when approaching the island with a boat.

Floating boundary

We hope to use the idea of symbiosis with nature and the original image of the city as a prototype to createa memorial place with humanistic care and critical spirit, and to shape this site into the control and warning boundary of maritime "construction".

Ocean Life Architecture

The idea behind it is to create a sustainable world with the resources we have. In this case, the economic side is essential for the success of the project and therefore to lower costs I used plastic in the ocean to float the islands and also used a system of bamboo, a local material, to make the islands light and sustainable. I used a problem as a solution

Current Interventions..The New Frontier

A vertical consolidated submersible and self-sustainable station that intercepts the upwelling currents catching nutrients. The stations contribute to the propagation of endangered species by providing artificial liquid spaces by concrete membranes as well containing plankton from upwelling currents in the coral reef.

Violet and Sharron

Aquatic Alveolus

The project is based on a strategic way of placing spaces on a site. The center of the community would be the energy sources that would symbolize the heart. Our pods/living quarters would be the lungs. And the community transportation tunnels are the veins.

Proximity Island

Repurposing an oil rig to repent for its sins as a tool for ecocide by designing a modular city that helps users change their attitudes towards nature and the sea through art, learning, research and contemplation.

Calvin

DRIFT

Worlds apart, separated by translucent and ballasted membranes. Architecture unto water as a drifting entity of observation, meditation and inter-terrestrial connection. Architecture could be topical, above, below, or carried with the falling of waves. The eroded platform becomes the microcosm, adrift in the Adriatic, only kept near through the anchored Rig.

Sasha

Proximity Island.

Proximity Island is the full-fledged cultural environment on a platform that is initially divorced both physically and semantically from the world of art and ordinary human life. It is the symbol of the sea, a symbol of the unity of architecture and nature.
