Infra-catharsis


Re-thinking space , architecture , nature and technology in postwar libya
A transitional city that shifts and evolves over time and moves from one country to another to create social and natural change
File under
Type of project
  • Systemic changes

This project is inspiring the next generations to break away from the idea of permanent solid buildings and permanent footprints, and give architecture a sense of ephemerality and the impermanence of structure, to be dismantled and taken somewhere else and leave nothing but a green and natural footprint. It will also remind the future that nature and humans are not separate, social engineering should be integrated with the natural green part of the project as well, people will participate in the process of construction + greening the project, and open chance for imperfection and randomness, just like learning from nature and the jungle. When these projects influence the future architects they will also use the advances of technology in the favor of nature, they will hopefully ask one vital question: How could Nature, Technology and Architecture be one?
