2WinnerTHREE SISTERSOur main idea was to design a repetitive form that makes the most of nature's bounty so that we could grow plants inside the restaurant all year round, by using the right angles of some of the glazing and vertical growing methods we were able to save a significant amount of space.
11People's Choice AwardEcological SalvationRIGS are about to be shut down, represent permanent industrial scars, monuments to humanity's past SINS. Parts of it were transformed by them, one by one, disintegrated, transformed, unrecognizable. But people seem to have forgotten this history and need to be reminded again. We plan to remind the pilgrims of the past and cherish the peace of today.
99Plugin HousingIn this plan, attention has been paid to providing housing for low-income groups by providing favorable living conditions. This design is an affordable, flexible model, with minimal material waste and minimal damage to the environment, which is suitable for the lifestyle of the future.
13Editor's ChoiceInteractive ColoniesThe aim of this project was to compromise with Mars and try to use its existing potentials instead of confronting it. Using dust storms and human activities as generators of energy was one of our key approaches to this design.
16Honorable MentionMORPHLUID - A Solar Responsive SystemThe research primarily deals with passive cooling systems titled Morphluid - which respond to climatic to provide the user with an optimum habitable environment. The success of this prototype would effectively reduce the usage of artificial cooling which not only consumes absurd quantities of electricity but also burdens the planet with the carbon footprint.
293People's Choice AwardProject InfinityFrom cave men to despotic rulers we have moved to a democratic era with development as the genus loci. An egalitarian work space oriented in 2040 where humans set goals and aspirations shaping their world which are accomplished by their technological counterparts leading to a truly Utopian era, an era of human transcendence.
11Here Comes The SunClimate change is the most important issue of our century. We have to make people aware of global warming and its dangers and to change our way of life. "Here Comes The Sun" promotes local agriculture and low energy activities, local construction methods, bio-climatic strategies for cooling and heating.
8RESIDENTIAL CROP HOUSEMultifunctionality is the key to the adaptability of urban fabric. This means that vegetables and fruits are still sold on the territory of the forty-year market, but in a very unusual way for us. The resident is now a farmer and can spend time in the garden without leaving the building and enjoy the fruits of his own work. Strength in knowledge.
5The SpiderIn order to solve the problem of adaptation to a site in constant mouvement without having a footprint , we were inspired by the spider anatomy. Our vision is to transforme the station to a universal connector pole that shelters and subsists to humain?s needs.following the philosophy of the "Universal Citizen"
3Respiratory Root ProjectThe keywords of our design are life and connection. The pursuit of our design is the romantic concept of turning desert into sea. We take the approach of modularization design: the entire habitat is composed of basic units - the towers, the shape and functions of which are inspired from the aerial roots of banyan and respiratory roots of metasequoia.
