Prototype 13
Prototype 13
- Systemic changes
Prototype 13 alleviates water scarcity by setting a net of environmental deployable towers. They are able to collect and storage water from air, and free their surroundings from greenhouse installations and farming lands.
Each deployable structure works as a livable tank of water placed in the heart of an intensive farming area. In contrast with conventional enclosed water containers, their construction is conceived as deployable scaffoldings. It is inspired in the ancestral Japanese origami technique called miura-ori, being able to be deployed rapidly in any place of the world and grow endlessly.
Among the grid of pipes, there is a whole agricultural cycle in which greenhouses, labs and processing spaces work together, liberating the land around it and creating a far more efficient farming process.
Thereby, the deployable prototypes are not just a water saver but also a live generator, by making the most of the humidity in the air, while rethinking the agricultural processes
