Urban Continuum transforms the city into a continuous learning environment. By dissolving the boundaries between campus and community, it creates an urban ecosystem where education emerges through everyday encounters, public participation, and shared experiences.

The Wall

Our project proposes an alternative approach towards skyscrapers; we hope to uplift the city, especially the Karun river, and purify the air of Ahvaz. Our project has the potential to become an icon by creating a diverse way of living and a connection with older city icons. Housing, environment, and social interactions are the main focuses of our design.

Urban Oasis

The contradiction between the encroachment of urbanization and the increasing tension of agricultural land has also become the most prominent problem in the current stage of rapid urban development. We need an "urban agricultural landscape system", as a unique continuous "patch" type of urban green ecosystem-the "urban oasis".

SUICHI

Suichi is a city of futuristic ocean buildings made from 3D-printed plastic waste from the Pacific which extend 300 meters below the water's surface. The project imagines a series of dome marines that would sustain the crustacean form of life. This newly invented urbanization is entirely self sufficient and energy efficient.
