A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
The project explores two Architectural strategies, Urban infill and Arcology, in an attempt to present a possible building for the future of Stockholm. The goal with Urban infill is to not expand but to densify the city by using already existing sites for the proposed structures. Arcologies could be described as a city within a structure where a lot of people can live, work and dwell. With a broad research ranging from Science-fiction to real-life Architectural projects, the aim is to combine these strategies in order to discuss and propose how we might live in the cities in the future. The result: A wooden highrise in the middle of Stockholm where people can live together as a community, creating a more densely populated city without expanding it.
