LMake it Resilient!

starting context

Contextualize the actual situation

Climate crisis will change the way we construct buildings.

Rising sea levels and more catastrophic flood events, especially in urban areas, are making living with more water unavoidable. Rather than trying to build structures like seawalls or houses on stilts to keep out water, floating architecture makes adaptability part of the design – some structures might sit on the ground but can float with rising flood waters, while others might float permanently on bodies of water.

Some questions

To help you with the design and the overall situation

Think about it

What are the main risks associated with rising sea levels for buildings located along coastlines?In what ways can green infrastructure, such as permeable pavements and rain gardens, be integrated into coastal building projects to manage stormwater runoff and reduce flood risk?

How can the principles of passive design, including orientation, shading, and natural ventilation, be applied to coastal buildings to minimize the need for energy-intensive cooling and heating systems?

For the 900 million or so people living in low-lying coastal zones, floating architecture provides hope that their communities can remain intact and resilient into the future.

Design Basic critera

You should design a habitat that floats or could float in a flood zone. You must include the Aurelia Institute starter model as your base. You may modify the base by resizing, duplicating, adding new Shapes, or even remixing with code. The habitat should have a sense of scale.

Follow these basic instruccions:
