Project idea

THE CONCEPT OF THIS PROJECT PROPOSES TO SETTLE THE PEOPLE OF THE FUTURE IN A NATURAL ENVIRONMENT THAT IS NOT DEVOID OF TECHNOLOGY. HAVING STUDIED THE POTENTIAL USERS OF THE FUTURE TOWN, THESE ARE DIGITAL NATIVE, GENERATION Z, DIGITAL TRIBE AND OTHERS, ONE CAN OBSERVE, WITH ALL THE POSITIVE CHANGES, ONE OF THE MAIN HUMAN QUALITIES THAT HAVE SHAPED OUR CIVILIZATION - SOCIALIZATION IS LOST. THE PROJECT INITIALLY PROPOSES WITH MINIMAL MEANS - A SMARTPHONE, INTERNET CONNECTION AND BLUETOOTH - TO PROVIDE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR USERS OF THE SPACE FROM THE AUDIENCE, AS IS CUSTOMARY, TO BECOME PARTICIPANTS. IN THE FUTURE - A SMART CITY, DIGITAL TWINS OF USERS AND AN ENVIRONMENT THAT IS FORMED AND CHANGED DEPENDING ON YOUR NEEDS, LIFESTYLE, WISHES. THE PROJECT LAYS THE FOUNDATION OF THE CAMPUS, THE STRUCTURE OF WHICH IN THE LONG-TERM DEVELOPMENT CAN GROW INTO SOMETHING MORE.
THE PROJECT WANTED TO CONVEY THE IDEA THAT THE ENVIRONMENT IS A LIVING ORGANISM, YOU CAN FILL THE SPACE WITH ANYTHING, THE MAIN THING WOULD BE SOMETHING TO FILL. ALTHOUGH THE ARCHITECT FORMS THE BOUNDARIES WITHIN WHICH LIFE WILL DEVELOP, ULTIMATELY PEOPLE DO NOT NEED ANYTHING - WE GRAVITATE TOWARDS NATURE. NEVERTHELESS, THERE IS A NEED TO CREATE A PLACE FOR INDIVIDUALS CAPABLE OF GUIDING US INTO A BRIGHTER FUTURE.
