Amphibious Commons

Amphibious Commons is a strategy that works across public spaces in Kerala, from a single cluster, to a market, to a regional transit network. During flood conditions, it restores what the flood removes, a shared ground plane, and in post flooding conditions, this public ground becomes a formwork for bamboo reinforced concrete construction.

CycleHaus

The CycleHaus is located in the middle of the largest world's ocean current. It can benefit the world's health by taking waste from one flow, recycling it, and shipping it worldwide by inserting it into another current route - without any additional energy used. The structure is politically, economically and socially independent, and able to expand further.

Life for rent

It is not only a physical space, but also an online social/business platform: a new concept of hostle! When you become an "hubber", you are connected to a network all around the world, with the possibility to rent different typologies of spaces, such as private rooms, working stations, etc. You can also offer or share your skills to earn money!

Opera house by the sea

Mingyang Xia
Project Owner

With all due respect, i do not consider this a derivative of Harbin project.This is about ribbon and pocket space. The concept is authentic thou may be perceived in similarity if you are judging a book by its cover. We believe concept is the key to timeless architectures and form is sometimes a result of concept. Being iconic does not always have to with how it looks: Pyramids?

Very derivative of Harbin Opera house by MAD

The form works well on the site, but it lacks originality. It is obviously inspired by Harbin Opera House by MAD. How can you make an iconic opera house if you copy it from an existing one?

Though the livelihood of the diverse community people is interrupted by this natural phenomenon the existence is sustained by means of co-existence (the magnificent ecological landscape, water basin, birds, animals etc. These are the main drives towards design process.

RIONIR

The name "RIONIR" consists of the two words RIO and REUNIR. In Portuguese Reunir stands for "(to gather)", which plays an essential role in the project. Combining this with RIO results RIONIR.

Connected Vessels

This project explores the idea of water systems connecting through a network of vessels. Water moves through the site in an open loop; it is collected and directed into a cleansing system on site which purifies it on one side and releases it on the other. Through this process the water maintains its equilibrium and provides a lively environment.

Opera on the Sea

Inspired by floating driftwood the opera house is designed to appear to appear as entangled branches floating on the sea. Acting as a cultural landmark to embody the northern European's love of wooden architecture and the Estonian musical culture, the forms rotate around the central opera hall,the importance of collective folk music in the country.

The 360

The 360 is a threshold from air to water. A pod like terminal space that rests entirely upon a 3D-printed floating bone structure. The structure is stabilized through its connection to land where the planes land. Upon arrival the travelers are taken to their destination by boats, traditional to the land. Bamboo screen opens to the mountains and the ocean.

MO

"In-between" is one of the most difficult, ambiguous and largely unexplored part of the city. We can change condition, meaning of the place and our own emotions when we're in-between space. And then on our traveling begin. But what qualities could it be? It is very different. The bridge could be even more than public space.
