What Remains of Earth

To counter the trajectory of unsustainable urban density and the schism of social needs, a new typology is needed to break the clusters and adjust how we live to exist in tandem with the natural world. Resources are moved off earth to combat these issues. A world existing beyond earth.

Introduction Transitioning World

Amongst the stars humans have ventured to shift consumption and production away from livelihood. Envisioning how the systems of this society will look and the typologies that will arise, these two worlds, one that explores never before seen terrain and one propagating what is left on our planet. Cities and typical sterile environments are re-wilded, engaged further with natural space and agriculture. Urban density and planning becomes template for a new typology that entwines space with the environment, adapting agriculture to the natural terrain.

Chapter One Energy of New Worlds

[EnergyInnovation] To power new industry, new energy is required. Solar farms arrayed across other worldly terrain create unseen patterns.

CHAPTER_01

[SolarAbsorption] Panels become a peripheral skin of the new earth, existing in a symbiotic relationship.

CHAPTER_01

[WildedSolar] Advanced technology allows for panels and fields to grow as a digital crop, harvesting natural resources without human interaction.

CHAPTER_01

[TopographicNetwork] The connections we run our industry from must also grow, adapting to the contours of the new planet.

CHAPTER_01

Chapter Two Cities of New Worlds

[FragmentedCity] Attempts to harness unknown terrains come at a cost, developed cities are subject to seismic changes and interruptions, displacing built structure.

CHAPTER_02

[NewAlps] Adoption of higher terrains develop new typologies, turbulent conditions and extreme cold expands housing beyond typical vertical schisms.

CHAPTER_02

[DesertOasis] Where energy is most harnessed, an organic growth of shelter is fabricated amongst the flowing topography.

CHAPTER_02

[UrbanEmergence] Time gives birth to normalised urban existence, differing however in typological distribution, efficient and adaption to new terrain.

CHAPTER_02

Chapter Three What Remains of Earth

[AbandonedIndustry] Sites of industry are left to the earths control; the environment takes over what was once pillars of resources for certain areas. Precinct becomes forest, quarry becomes wetland.

CHAPTER_03

[AbandonedCities] Lack of work and population dictates certain cities also becoming obsolete, left to the conditions of mother nature.

CHAPTER_03

[NewDevelopedAgriculture]

Previous abandoned areas become use for agricultural sites. Topography as the client driver in agricultural and urban planning.

CHAPTER_03

[Re-WildedCities]

Cities themselves with newfound urban -real estate have the luxury to be re-wilded, lush in biomass and open space. A new city typology is born through this movement of resources.

Introduction

Garden of Eden We have found ourselves at a crossroads, we are not meeting the needs of all humans while simultaneously overstretching the finite resouces of our planet. If we imagine the city as a condensor, the over-population is forcing human being further the opposition to nature. The project aiming to break the limitation of creativiness to reimagine the future city with the artificial algorithm learning tool which provide the vision to this new world. Part of the research is to provide a vision to the potential outcomes will occure with the overconsumption of natural resouces which might lead to dessertification, flooding and lack of land resouces. Leading to the radical experiments on redefining the human habitation in this over-comsumed planet. How do we tackle the contradictory language between the city and the nature. What if the nature and human are co-existing, a city is floating on the ocean or we are forced to build the habitation vertically in the clouds?

[Biomass]

Symbols and depictions of Earth as a nurturer have been long present in human societies. Earth holds us like a mother, it nurtures us like a mother does, providing food, chemicals, wood, and answering our every need in a seemingly omnipotent way, akin to the vision an infant has of its all-powerful mother until it has grown enough to fend for itself. Now, It’s time for us to bring the bond relationship between nature and human together.

[MarineUtopia]

The land has been over-comsumed by us, fertile land becomes desert as a result of drought, deforestation, or inappropriate agriculture. The water resouce became crucial for human being which remains a potential frontier for sophisticated water-based communities. We have no choice but to surrender to the power of nature, we are living on the floating ecopolis for ecological refugees

As we are going globel urbanization process, the overpopulation forces people immigrates from city fringe to the heart of city. The glamours night view can be regarded as the human footprint. No matter where the human settlement is going to be, the city light at night will always direct us to the way home
