Idea projektu

With the development of technology, many things change from the way we perceive the world to our routines. We can live faster and have easier access to what we want. The distances are getting shorter, the transition between the scales becomes easier, and now we are all part of a common network. This gives us new insights. Opening existing resources to common use is becoming an understanding that many companies have started to implement today. The sharing economy can be defined as to present something to someone else's need or to meet each other's needs. Is it possible to create a new life with such an approach?

Popis projektu

Today, our privacy limits are being redefined and our living standards are changing, although we are not aware of it. Collective work is a must for our lives. The accessibility of information is increasing, and the line between our business life and our private life becomes unclear. All of this reveals a familiar order: communal life. This order includes an understanding of the common areas where many actions are taken together. In the project, sleeping areas positioned around a common area define the privacy that individuals need. The kitchen, laundry, and work areas are attached to the common area and provide a common ground for meeting other needs. While all this fiction continues at the upper elevation, the ground level is defined as the working area of the inhabitants.
The Community consists of an R & D center that accepts carbon dioxide as a resource based on Çan's polluted air and the living spaces of volunteers working there. R & D, located on the ground level, has a fiction that explores and develops materials developed using carbon dioxide in the air.
