Floating Architecture
Architecture and settlements built on water, from floating platforms and dwellings to speculative habitats designed for rising seas and floodplains.
As more oil platforms raise the more Ice bergs claps. One put the existence of another in danger. And expand the shadow over human future. Our approach towards this project was to transform the platform into small Iceberg and at the same time It would manifest and reminder of our compact on planet with using of fossil fuels.

Amphibious Commons is a strategy that works across public spaces in Kerala, from a single cluster, to a market, to a regional transit network. During flood conditions, it restores what the flood removes, a shared ground plane, and in post flooding conditions, this public ground becomes a formwork for bamboo reinforced concrete construction.

The Mangrove Society
Fit to solve degradation mangrove area
A nice design that could have been even more braver in its adhoc nature. The hexagonal organisation is quite cliched for such floating settlements.
What a thoughtful, evocative and beautiful concept. Loved everything about it from the self sustaining design for food, energy and waste, the restorative idea of building the mangroves as the society grows and moves, and the society, complete with a bakery, seafood nursery and school. The design also looks comfortable and aspirational, and the mangrove is a beautiful foundation for the concept. Well done!

Resilent city for
Radical, futuristic and explorative. Modules are quite applicative, but doesn’t offer various options for further development. Lack of analysis for supporting system such as energy and self-sufficient methods.
It offers something new which I do not see on other entry. However, some improvement in the method of presentation is necessary to articulate some of its space composition.

Excellent 👌
super
Awesome design!😍❤
Strong idea of self-sufficient, ecological and sustainability issues. Well planned financial strategy, but not explorative dan dynamic enough in design output.
