An Architecture Platform Enabling Massively Cooperative Design for Transformative Impact

An Architecture Platform Enabling Massively Cooperative Design for Transformative Impact
A cooperative architecture platform enabling architects to align widespread cooperation with a single vision to create massively assymmetric social, economic, environmental, or other impact.
File under

Cooperative architecture can create competitive advantage, or massive impact, and can sustainably drive that impact at scale.
Design for Change – Nairobi 2018 will integrate housing design, renewable energy, aquaponics, and other design projects to create synergies that reduce the cost of living in Nairobi’s biggest slum by the $30-$50 dollars per month required to lift people out of poverty. A challenge using lessons learned from Nairobi will create synergies that improve economic security of families in Europe.
Compatibility of components creates economies of scale and design cost-sharing that reduce costs and increase competitiveness. Modularity, reusability, and simplicity (no specialized tools or user expertise required), ensures the health of our planet through a sustainable, circular economy.
Our concept is a platform that decouples the efforts of an unlimited number of architects and designers, and enable those efforts to be aligned to achieve a single coherent vision.
