Although many predictions have been made regarding the flooding due to Climate Change, it is difficult to foresee the impact and the time scale of the event. In the next 100 years the IPCC predicts a sea level rise of 1-1.2m. The impact to the site would not be severe in that case. However, other factors such as change in tides and coast corrosion would be the major threats to coastal living.

Although the map displays as what it seems plenty of green areas around the site, the human experience of those spaces in very different. The landscape in the public areas is mostly impermeable or permeable hard landscaping - the lack of planting and green oases in this hot climate creates an unpleasant environment during summer months in terms of outdoor thermal comfort.

In Barcelona, 79,2% suffer chronic disorders, mental or physical 50% have suffered an aggression or crime Source: https://www.arrelsfundacio.org/en/homeless-people/ the-problem/
Providing a temporary safe place within the development for the homeless people where they will have access to basic hygiene amenities - enabling them to get back on their feet, gain confidence and re-establish their social status through employment and opportunities. The co-housing scheme will provide some physical cultural and social integration as well as some job opportunities.

In collaboration with local homeless shelters and foundations, some small housing units designed specifically for the purpose would be allocated to the disadvantaged people who cannot meet their basic needs and obtain shelter in their current situation. The tenancy at these dwellings would be temporary - until the individual is able to support themselves after obtaining employment and ability to self-sustain themselves. The small units would have the basic amenities as well as advantages of the development and freedom all residents will have.

The PRIMAVERA development aims to incorporate some of the various activities mentioned above, hence retaining the social integration and context of the place. The area in the proximity to the beach lacks some commercial establishments and permeable areas which the development will aim to tackle through a physical connection of two popular public places on either side of the site.

// VISION
// BRIEF
The primary feature of the seafront development situated on the site adjacent to the Parc del Forum in Barcelona’s Sant Marti district will be collective dwellings and co-housing units built to Passivhaus standards. The development aims to attract young adult population into the area primarily dominated by the dense urban scape, high rise dwellings, hospitality establishments and commercial offices in order to create diversity and serve as a catalyst for the future development of the area orientated towards its regeneration and expansion. In collaboration with Barcelona’s organisations for aiding homeless population, the development will provide a number of temporary dwelling units for disadvantaged individuals as well as opportunities for becoming self sustained and financially independent.

Below are some of the concepts for the Algae Bioreactor pipes that would envelope the building.
/ / A L G A E B I O R E A C T O R S - E A R LY C O N C E P T
Early concepts introduced algae bioreactors in form of tubes which could potentially act as solar shading during summer. However, this arrangement was inflexible due to the fixed positions of the pipes and lack of control over the aperture for shading and solar gain in summer and winter respectively.
MILOSEVIC 17
The concept also uses the algae photobioreactors which could emit light at night due to the certain strain of algae used in the tubes. This requires artificial illumination onto the tubes in order to reflect from the algae in the water at night.

// RESIDENT INTERACTIONS
// ALGAE PROCESS IN THE BUILDING
// ALGAE BIOREACTORS Algae solutions are permanently fed through the main tube with CO2 and culture medium along with being ventilated and mixed with pressurised air. The algae solution is fed higher amounts of cultures during sunny periods in order to optimise the use of sunlight for photosynthesis and hence the energy produced via this system.
MILOSEVIC 25
The solution allows diffused daylight though into the interior spaces although they could be adjusted (opened or closed) to suit the needs of the residents and personal preferences. The system protects the building and its interior from the direct solar exposure in summer and allows for solar gain in winter.
