URBAN GARDEN
A self-sufficient, modular, agriculture “kit” structure for displaced farmers of Sub-Saharan Africa. Utilizes emerging aquaponics technology, solar energy, and water collection & storage. Multiple modules can be used to scale operations and create micro-environments of various sizes, zones, and habitat complexity.
EARTH MODULE
Precast Geopolymer concrete module creates an affordable, innovative, and enduring dwelling incorporating industrial byproducts such as fly ash, slag, and metakaolin, within the regional economies they originate from. Low tech and high-tech sustainable energy technologies are integrated around a central utility core, the base of which becomes a cistern for fresh water.
PREFABRICATED HOUSING
Drawing inspiration from vernacular forms and simple, modular massing, these prefabricated homes orient to solar exposure and unfold around a utility core — prototype studies and templates of contemporary living — in need of a site.
