Project Info

A group of 20 survivors from a UN bunker, set on a mission to build A shelter/outpost to explore, expand and find survivors from the aftermaths of the 2035 nuclear war, to investigate the conditions of Glasgow, to report back to the UN operation Outpost ’38 in preparation to rebuild.

There’s a trades port, where they receive fabricated living units through the canal streams, sent from outpost ‘37 where the Glasgow port is located. They receive trade goods from the other outposts already in operation around the globe pursuing the century plan.

WHY ALGAE?

Renewable Energy Source

Algae can be used as a source of biofuel through a process called algae biofuel production. This renewable energy source could provide a sustainable and clean energy solution for the survivors, helping reduce dependency on traditional energy sources.

Oxygen Production

Algae are known for their ability to photosynthesize, producing oxygen as a byproduct.

Integrating algae systems within your architectural design could contribute to oxygen generation, improving air quality and creating a more breathable environment for the survivors.

Water Filtration

Algae can be employed in water treatment systems to filter and purify water. This could be crucial for survivors to have access to clean and safe drinking water, especially in post-disaster scenarios where water sources may be compromised.

Food Production

Certain types of algae are edible and rich in nutrients. Integrating algae cultivation systems could provide a sustainable source of food for the survivors, helping address nutritional needs.

Other benefits include Aesthetic, Biophilic Design, Carbon Sequestation, Thermal Regulation, Material Production
