HARLEM USTOPIA

Harlem Ustopia reimagines East Harlem’s future after forced displacement. From a demolished landscape, a synthetic network grows, reconnecting memory, public life, and housing through adaptive modular structures and autonomous technologies. A new community, regrown.

The Wall

Our project proposes an alternative approach towards skyscrapers; we hope to uplift the city, especially the Karun river, and purify the air of Ahvaz. Our project has the potential to become an icon by creating a diverse way of living and a connection with older city icons. Housing, environment, and social interactions are the main focuses of our design.

Atomique

The basic concept for the design and layout of this housing project is inspired by the branching structure of the nuclei of atoms. Specifically, the modular units that make up the housing structure are designed to mimic the branches of an atom’s nucleus, while the cores and open spaces within the structure are meant to represent the nucleus itself.

Convalescence

The world has been flooded, wiping out most of the earth's population. The water levels rise and lower at drastic rates making the land inhabitable. Safety was found in the city of Manhattan on the upper levels of the tallest skyscrapers. With the use of bridges and space technology, it is up to the surviving community to commence a new era.

Architecture of the Apocalypse

Humanity as we know it hangs on its last thread as the living remaining few build themselves back up through a scarred field of radiation, with only hope in their sights.

Mechanical Cloud

The Mechanical Cloud is a conceptual work of architecture designed to protect the residents of Manhattan from the dangers that climate change poses to the island in the not-so-distant future. The Mechanical Cloud is built upon the High Line in New York, which provides an escape from the rapidly rising sea levels.

Parallel Universe

This is a retro futuristic project that aims to avoid the usual representation of post-human architecture, typically associated with the image of eerie dystopian world. This project tackles the possibility to co-navigate this new realm of design as to how humans, robot can co-exist in the different realities .

URGENCYCLE

The temporary life between the moment of disaster and reconstruction is perhaps the moment when people need help the most and feel desperate.This temporary process, in which it is not known how long it will last, is very uncomfortable and insufficient for people. In this process, when life freezes, most people become unable to even meet their basic needs.

The Digital Anthropocene

This project develops a way for a discourse that investigates on the possibilities of integrating machine Intelligence and human coordination to produce a multiverse hybrid vertical community of artists and communal spaces.The goal is to create a digital archive of the Chicago’s biodiversity in order to preserve what little it has left.
