About Discussions Projects20 Journals6 Publications1

Toroidal stations represent a design approach to space infrastructure and terrestrial facilities that employ ring or doughnut-shaped geometries. This topology offers structural efficiency, artificial gravity through rotation, and optimized spatial organization for both extraterrestrial and Earth-based applications.

The community explores toroidal forms across scales, from speculative space ports and mining stations to reimagined terrestrial infrastructure like rest stops and forestry facilities that adopt circular planning principles to integrate with natural landscapes and coastlines.

MANHATTAN n.2

In 1991, eight scientists participated in an experimental project called Ecosphere 2 in Arizona, USA. Although the experiment ultimately failed, its process and results have very important reference value for future human migration to space. The main reason for the failure of the experiment was the lack of sufficient volume and complex ecological system.

The Ark of Knowledge

The more civiliztion develops, the more dangerous and intense issues the Earth is facing. Ecologists give a non-positive prognosis to the Earth's future. In the near future humanity will need to find a new place for living. We need not only save humanity in its physical appearance, but we must find the ways to save our culture and identity.

ORIGYN GAIA

A station designed to expand upon itself and be the part that completes an industry. Designed by a student group of engineers currently completing a masters in Space Science and Technology, this design hopes to bring together the beauty of architecture and the pragmatism of engineering, with scientific knowledge of the space environment.
