Creep
Nature and plants always grow and transform. A small plant that we protect now,i n the future,can be a bi g tree to protect us. Agrapoli s wi ll have the current desi gn where many structured constructed to help plants spread, protect plants growth,and protect the agri culture i n Agrapoli s.Then,i n the future,the farm wi ll transform where plants can be the structure i n combi nati on wi th the Trai ned Tree system,and the plants wi ll protect the ecosystem i nsi de Agrapoli s.
Another characteri sti c of plants, especi ally for vi nes and roots, i s easi ly spread or creep. Agrapoli s structure desi gned to let the creep plants qui ckly grow and spread over the structure. In other words, the desi gn structure i s a track lane for creep plants to spread off. Creep plants also represent connecti ons i n nature. " Everythi ng Is Connected In Nature"
" Protect To Be Protected"
Flow Most of the structure desi gn,mechani sm,and ci rculati on represent the flow desi gn language. Water i s one ofthe essenti alsources i n agri culture. To embrace the water flow,the Ulta-chaata structure i s desi gned to show the water flow from the roof, through the water channel,and storage to the water tank and underground water tank.
