Overstory

To build in Kayamandi - in a biosphere reserve with limited water resources - a winery of the future must foreground sensibility toward both nature and culture. “Overstory” investigates how the architecture of a roof canopy shared by building and nature can play an active role in mediating – and perhaps remediating – the native ecologies of this landscape.

Healing Façade

Based on the belief of forest churches in the chain of interdependence between humans and non-humans, the proposal is a feasible, modular and replicable facade to address the gap made by unsustainable human actions. Through fibers, the façade catches water from the wind to protect vegetation and foster conditions for reforestation and landscape restoration.

Rethinking Resilience

The project embraces flood as a natural phenomena as the premise to imagine the possibility of secure human habitation. With this as the central idea, the project defines resilience to be two fold- 1.to be prepared before flood. 2. sustenance and recuperating post flood scenario. In its execution, the project encapsulates this idea at three distinct scales.
