Space Shipyard: Projects, Journals & Ideas

About Discussions Projects6 Journals4

Space Shipyard explores the transformation of maritime industrial landscapes through design. Shipyards and ship-breaking facilities represent complex sites of production, decay, and potential renewal, offering designers opportunities to engage with material culture, labor, and environmental remediation.

The community examines adaptive reuse of shipyard sites, material salvage and circular economy approaches in maritime contexts, and the architectural possibilities of waterfront industrial heritage. Projects range from revitalization of historic shipbuilding facilities to new construction on former maritime industrial grounds.

THE FORGE

Located on the asteroid belt, an asteroid mining station set in the near future is home to a community of asteroid miners. Our design takes a systematic approach to settlement design at a building and urban scale. We propose an adaptive aggregated system based on complex rules to determine the arrangement of typologies in four dimensional space.

INTO THE GRAVEYARD, ALANG

It is a new prototypical ship breaking facility to the ship breaking community of Alang, India that modernizes the process of shipbreaking by introducing various interconnected systems by preventing the use of traditional life-threatening methods of dismantling. The project aims at making the process safe for the labourers as well as environmentally safe.

Forging a New Dawn - Revitalization of Darukhana

This thesis reimagines Darukhana — Mumbai’s historic shipbreaking hub — through an urban intervention that connects community, industry, and heritage. It proposes a community center, a public promenade, a museum narrating its past, and safer, reorganized shipbreaking yards — aiming to revive the site and forge a more inclusive, dignified future.

EREBUS

The Erebus project conceives the colonization of the asteroid belt by proposing the installation of a habitable orbital station called Erebus and a robotic surface settlement called Hades. The orbital station will be comprised of three toroidal spacecraft that will be relieved one at a time each year and a half, avoiding isolation.
