A BED CAPSULE Eva Truncova / Justin Davis
PORTO ACADEMY 2017 studio Aristide Antonas
A capsule is designed to fit in most of the empty, abandoned, urban, void spaces of Porto. The elevations of the city are left intact; the capsules are designed to sit on metallic legs permitting an entrance with a simple ladder. The empty spaces of the plots capture the potential of hosting common activities for the inhabitants of the capsules. The empty lots also can serve as extensions to the urban fabric with new spaces in between the urban public sphere and the private, installed bed systems
