What if we cover all cities with a thick layer of green? Everything! From roofs, facades and streets, to interior walls, floors and even furniture.
Now 3% of the earth’s surface is built up with cities. This is roughly the size of India. This workshop focuses on what this 3% does to the planet, before and after we have covered it with a forest. We will explore this by making the atlas of a green dipped planet. A series of world maps will present the state of the world as it is and after the green dip has happened.
The Green Dip is a project of IAAC, Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia developed in the Master in City and Technology 2019/2020 by the students: Pawitra Bureeak, Byron Cadena, Aryo Dhaneswara, Rashid Gilfanov, Christian Lyle La Madrid, Jianne Libunao, Akshay Marsute, Jochen Morandell, Elijah Munn, Alejandro Quinto, Michelle Rodriguez Ruiz, Linara Salikhova, Andrew Saltzman, Rovianne Santiago, Kushal Saraiya and faculty: The Why Factory
