WATERZEN
People who live in & educate on water
WHERE TO SHARE
Waterzen is a temporary identity that everyone can be. It doesn’t gives you a nationality, but it gives you freedom & space to think and to learn form the waterzenship which relate to Water Living & systems. Waterzenship encourage waterzen to bring valuable & unique skills and knowledge to contribute to their hometown. It is a self-learning experience for everyone in the world.

HOW TO SHARE Waterzen can exchange skills & experience through process of knitting nets in different spaces. There is a hugh potential behind the nets.
Sharing protection skills can help each other through the learning of making shelter & cover areas.
Learning to protect the settlemtent and the floating goods. Share the spirit of solidarity through the education of protection.
WEAVING CITY

Tight their opportunity
LEARNING BY TYING
Net is an important fundamental element of floating city. One of the first thing at the initially step of education is learn how to knitting nets.
WHERE TO SHARE
The combination of net & tent can form a cover area on different floating settlement. This system can protect goods under bad weather conditions.
Net wall and cover system is concentrate to protect the area of fish farm and seaweed farm. To prevent the damage of fish farm or living space form natural organism such as bird.

Parking the lifebuoy on different platforms represent the scenario of space sharing.
Lifebuoy is an important tool on water environment. It can save everyone’s life and let waterzen who don’t know how to swim to float.
The lifebuoy can protect platforms form the condition of crash when the boats arrive.
PARK
HOW TO SHARE Waterzen can share wasted wood, bamboo and plastic for building more connections with others.
Sharing ideas of different ways to connect several materials.
Tying structure for neighbour is a nice kind of sharing.
Rope is a important material to be linkage in-between settlements.
Waterzen can sharing idea of protecting home through tyinig ceiling together.
The reason why the settlemet can floating on water because of the installation with empty plastice container under it.
Walking platforms can be constructure with serval materials with different method of tying.
Method of tying is important to produce safety structure on floating settlement.
Many handrails of floating bridge are tied by ropes.
Ropes is a good material that can stable the soft ceiling structure.

Share and understanding the traditional abalone farming cultural through constructing the hanging system.
Share and understanding the traditional mixed water farming cultural through constructing the net.
To gather different platform is a big key to benefit the communication between others.
The net on top of the fishfarm is a protection approach. To against attack from birds and the jump out of fishs.
Abalone farming have a hanging system because ablones need to live in a container with seaweed for growth. The rope is to hang on the container
An extra net on top of the farming is to separate two different kinds of farming materials.
It is needed a ring form to connect settlement and the platform by rope system.

Lifeboat can protect the boats when they get crash. Waterzen can exchange ideas of tying method to create unique rope pattern facade.
Ropes is a good material that can stable the facade of settlement.
KNITTING LEARNING SYSTEM
Share and understanding the traditional fish farming cultural through constructing the net.
FISH FARM
Boats can also be part of the system to connect the space with other floating elements. Sharing by moving.
LEARNING BY KNITTING
Tie their future
WHERE TO SHARE
Waterzen need to pratice with the lifebuoy and explore the opportunity of it. This is about the sharing ideas and concept of an object.
Waterzen can share the moving space to different settlement through the rope system.
Rope is a key that connect boats to different platform.
MARKET
Learning the ideas of sustainability through the system of seaweed farming.
Learning to build a little platform to give opportunity of share.
Use different kind of container to transport goods.
Container can form a system to share and distribute.
Farming system with empty plastic bootle and rope is the icon and pattern of seaweed. It is the phenomena of seaweed.
This little net platform usually for put the feeds of fish for stand by.
This is a abalone container that usually put red seaweed with abalone together for growth.
This container usually contain and deliver feed of fishs.
Learning the concept of alternative economy. Produce together throught different modular container.
Hanging is a key point to collective living, sharing common kitchen and living room.
