WHY BUILDINGS SHOULD FLY

APPLICATION VECTORWORKS/

PHOTOSHP/INDESIGN/CINEMA 4D/ RHINO

In the antiques music and architecture had a strong connection with each other. Architects had to play instruments and architecture was built to the rythm of music. Every century set different rules how to build architecture. By setting those rules we helped to develope and change our society.

So what will the future be like?

Woudn’t it be nice to decide for ourselves our view on the planet. To decide where to interact or not. We could change our point of view and broaden our horizon. At least I would like a place that could change like me and give me space to develop.

WHY BUILDINGS SHOULD FLY 1

2

We all have an individual space.

3

But everyone else also has an individual space. So if we want to go from one place to another we have to go over the other individual spaces. That means the other spaces are obsticles we have to overcome.

4

So we actually divide the space vertically.

5

Through that the earth would be a total interaction zone and we would clearly show if we want to be left alone or interact.

6

But what will happen if we take a new line and we divide the space horizontally instead? Saying private is above and public is the ground. So we make a parallel world.

HOW THIS BUILDING CAN FLY The balloon is powered by hot air and therefor not depending on gases which are needed to be produced with high costs and also are ending resources.

1. The PV- textile is producnng the energy for heating up the balloon and also energy needed for cooking.

It covers the whole balloon and keeps the parts together like a skin

2. The balloon is powered by hot air. In the balloon it is a constant tempreture of 90-110째C which is produced by the sun wich shines on the balloon and the energy wich the PVtextile produces.

3. Last part is the light structure. It is made out of ecological polystyren and carbon fiber. It should be a no weight structure. Also to shrink the balloon size, the polysteren could be mixed up with hellium instad of air.

A house of 950 kg needs a balloon of 3000 m3. If the constrution ways less than 400 kg the balloon size would be 700 m3!

THE SNAKE

SITE UTOPIA APPLICATION WRITING/ MODELBUILDING

This Utopia is a critic to our immigration-policy and gives this unspatial procedure an architectural body.

Everyone who really has the goal to immigrate to Europe, can do this with the help of the „Mobile border“. It has its starting point in the center of Europe. In Brussels. In all the neighboring countries is an underground entrance, leading directly to Brussels. Here the immigrants are lined up to come to Europe. They travelle through an underground tube system to Brussels, where all the pipes join together. Here is not only the exit of the underground tunnelsysthems, but at the same time the entrence to the „Mobile border“... ...which is above groundlevel. The tubes open into an underground foyer. The hall is cone-shaped with a radius of 100 meters and a height of 25 meters. The tip of the cone forms a tube with 5 meters in diameter.

Here is the entrance and the starting part of the „Mobile border“. An escalator connects the hall to the entrance above ground level. All immigrants get a number immediately after their arrival in the hall, which tells them their arrival number. Then they have to wait in the hall until their number appears on the escalator.

When that happens, the immigration process can begin and the transformation from immigrant to a citizen of Europe starts. From now on the immigrant is unseen by the citizens of Europe, on its transformation journey.

Arrived in the abovegroundlevel part of the „Mobile border“, in a 5-meter wide pipe, the immigrant joins the queue of immigrants who have been already waiting in front of him. There, the foreigners are all after each other tested to be integrated or to determine whether they are capable of integration or not. So if you come out on the other side of the tube, you have completed

make their lives in the belly of this snake not easy. Ist not easy eather to get a hold of learning materials for the exams. You get better learning materials, if better results are obtained in the tests. The snake is an increasingly, complex structure that runs through the sky. The more immigrants move forward in the snake, the better are their lives in the line. The snake is wider and more comfortable. The immigrants have more space here.

They get better food and better clothes. In the now with 7 meter diameter, large pipe immigrants are tested in European history and geography. But they can be ranked by poor test results back and have to go back again.

Further ahead, in a wider part of the snake their manners are tested and adapted to the customs and manners of European standards. You need not only knowledge, but also the manners of a European. If the immigrant also mastered this part, a lock leads him into a well-equipped and modern area of the snake. Here they can watch the hustle of all the major cities on screens, these screens also run regular advertisements. Here they are tested in languages, fashion, brands and observation the people in Europe. Even further ahead „...The snake winds itself through the air. Pillars support the long, in the queue, the „Examiners“ fragile body. So, this confusing line streches across Europe. The snake are liveing. They are also immigrants, but they are always builds itself further on its own...“ allready adapted to European cultur and are fluent in all the transformation to the citizens. The tests are hard and the languages of Europe. Now they spend their time because many people are queuing, the tube gets longer with studying a profession and examinating the new and longer. The tunnel provides room for waiting places arrivals. There part is wider and offers more comfort. on the side, if you have to take a number at a station and With 9 meters in diameter they live luxuriously. From individually tested. At such a station is a junction, which a junction they can go back to the individual testing can return you to an earlier station, if you do not pass the stations. The „Examiners“ are far outnumbered by the examination. Also on particularly difficult examination other immigrants. Who is a „Examiner“ and has brought station are bumps in the pipe. Here immigrants can it already that far in line, has high reputation. In general stay or eat. This sleeping possibilities are not large and also the behavior opposite the „Examiner“ is rated. have barely enough room for everyone. The movements An „Examiner“ call himselves proudly „Examiner“. and sounds, which are caused by the „Mobile border“ Furthermore, the immigrants are observed in the anterior 10

part of the queue from companies. Companies can select can proceed quickly forward in the queue and another individual immigrants, in which they see potential and will never manage to be a „Almost citizens“. The living can sponsor them. The sponsors are watching the skills conditions close to the entrance in Brussels are rough, of the immigrants and give them the opportunity for nobody wants to stay longer than necessary. The crowd better food, better examination results or permits to of people makes it rough. The food supply here is bad the next station. Each immigrant is of course trying to too. The food is founded by donations from Europe. get a sponsor, and tries to excel the other immigrants Immigrants in the queue can always return to their through manners and examination results. A sponsor home country if they do not withstand the pressure. The may significantly shorten one‘s life in line and allow a opportunity to return always exists, no one forces them good job with high earnings in Europe. The immigrant to be here. The „Mobile border“ is a place where one is could already receive specialist training in line. But a voluntary. If one changes his mind, he can always return sponsor can drop one very quickly if he discovers a to his previous country. But some people try to escape immigrant with more potential. At the head of the snake illegaly. They try to go through the ventilation slots on is the council of the „Almost citizens“ located. They the outer walls of the snake to get outside, some people decide by democratic vote, where to move the snake do it, but most are caught and expelled. Immigrants and who is going to be a citizen of them. Here is a round provide by themselves right and order in the queue. The table, which has 28 seats. When one has completed the illegal immigrants destroy their reputation. The waste of transformation from an „Almost citizen“ to a citizen, the snake is transported directly to the home countries then a „Examiner“ gets promoted to a „Almost citizens“ of the immigrants. There is no harm to Europe. and joins them. They have all the knowledge that they need to migrate „...For the Europeans, the immigrants are a mystery...The to Europe and live a stable life there.

By a simple vote they determine citizens are aware that the snake keeps the immigrants in chess, and they feel secure that the system works...“ who is the lucky one who may call himselfe „European“. As an elected representative of the snake he must now decide where they want to go. The „Almost citizens“ From the perspective of the Europeans, the structure living in a large sphere of 15 meters in diameter. Their seems strange. They see how the snake moves through apartments are arranged around the table. Only the the air. They can also see the flood of immigrants who head end is open, here is a movable ramp, from which wants to come to Europe. The structure frightens them. the soon to be citizen will descend. The snake winds The snake is building at a rapid pace. They know, in itself through the air. Pillars support the long, fragile this snake are tons of people who want to go to Europe. body. So, this confusing line streches across Europe. The windows of the snake are at the top and can not be The snake always builds itself further on its own. It viewed. For the Europeans, the immigrants are a mystery. always docks its support at the borders and embassies But they know that immigrants who become citizens, are in Europe. The „Mobile border“ is a transformation of integrated and bring real benefit to the economy. The space, just as the borders of Europe. Europe‘s borders citizens are aware that the snake keeps the immigrants are also Nomhansland. If someone want to cheat in the in chess, and they feel secure that the system works. queue, he is sent back to his country and may no longer They are glad that there is the „Mobile border“. So have the right to use the „Mobile border“. Since more people only see the „Mobile border“. They do not know and more immigrants want to go to Europe, the snake what nation the immigrants belong to. Al the immigrants gets longer and longer and more complex. The tests are are the same. Only fully-fledged citizen of Europe can be harder and the test results must be better. Immigrants are accepted. Only when an immigrant has fully completed under pressure to perform good and not stand still in the the transformation, he steps out of line. Then he is queue. Some are circulating long in one section. There no immigrant anymore, but a free citizen of Europe. hope to come to Europe is getting less. One immigrant Welcome!
