Circular Economy
Architecture and design projects that reuse, reclaim, and regenerate materials, buildings, and urban waste within closed-loop systems.
gaSSz arquitectos Builds a Demountable Circular-Economy Garden from Rubble and Tires in Madrid's Vicálvaro
In Vicálvaro, Madrid, a 2,400 m² garden of bolted yellow steel, rubble gabions and tire-rubber paving treats public space as a reversible material bank.
CycleHaus
The CycleHaus is located in the middle of the largest world's ocean current. It can benefit the world's health by taking waste from one flow, recycling it, and shipping it worldwide by inserting it into another current route - without any additional energy used. The structure is politically, economically and socially independent, and able to expand further.
wireless CORALPODS
Introducing wireless CORALPODS with no cables attached to the sea floor, mainland or anywhere else. Coralpods believe in a circular exchange with the existing marine ecosystem while providing an inclusive habitat. Both terrestrial (humans) and marine species can inhibit it.
Wow! Amazing! Great concept!
This project answers a lot of the requests needed for an habitat underwater. The form of the unit and of the coral pods respond to the conditions for pressure, light, movement underwater. It takes into account issues of food, oxygen or water provision. Addresses different space conditions both in a single unit and in a social level. Even though the exterior of the coral pod is not well shown in the panels, the proposal is very strong.
Wow! truly a futuristic yet practical idea! thoroughly enjoyed reading the brief! Well done and all the best!
Trinity
The TRINITY utilizes hydro-bionic and magnetic power, self-generating a free-form G.E.N. (Global Entertainment Nucleus) in the ocean. With this future stadium, we focus on how to use architecture to fuse the worlds and experiences of both the physical and the virtual.
Farming For All
"Farming for All" is a living area that combines different programs focused on harvesting, learning, consumption, entertainment, and housing.
Waste To Wonder: Solid Waste Innovation Center & Urban Oasis at Naodapara Landfill, Rajshahi
This thesis proposes transforming an active municipal landfill into an integrated waste management and public landscape. Combining resource recovery, environmental education, and ecological restoration, the project promotes circular economy principles through a phased WtE strategy that transforms the landfill into a resilient urban oasis while restoring biodiversity and strengthening public awareness.

'Toolkit' of Self-Resilience
The process of re-imagining play has created a set of design principles that are explored through a series of modular typologies that are geared towards addressing the socio-cultural issues in the Kutupalong refugee camp through adaptable and flexible design.
Looks interesting
Good green design and ideas by using recycled plastic. Portable and endless interchangeable module. Cool!
really cool stuff !!

Project name : Live Happily
How design the pathway that helping to burn calories, walking as a workout, walking can also help burn fat as well and also use circulation to get people to use and in our work for a longer time. Using different paths, including climbing and walking down the ramp to avoid or walk over, and the roofs of connected buildings can also be used by users.

The Project explores the concept of a regenerative and self-sustainable fish farm set in a natural environment.
RePAiRIS: Turning a Dormant Paris Rail Corridor into a Circular Economy Marketplace
Reused shipping containers, retired rail wagons and stepped timber decks turn a dormant Paris rail corridor into a repair-driven civic platform.
Memory
There are clearly two tipologies in the project that I think have to interact more precisely; idea of park is well adapted to it´s sorroungings.

Great job! Even the design is adequate for the theme.
Looks like it could really influence the world :)
