eVolo was such a big thing in my student years. We studied many past winners and worked hard to conceptualize a truly unique skyscraper. Every day, we asked ourselves how to redefine the skyscraper, and those conversations seemed endless. During my undergrad years, I was obsessed with megastructures. Once again, a huge shoutout to all my teammates.
“The world is currently experiencing the highest level of displacement on record. By the end of 2016, 65.5 million individuals had been forcibly displaced worldwide due to persecution, conflict, violence, and human rights violations. This represented an increase of 300,000 people compared to the previous year, and the global displaced population remains at an unprecedented level. Additionally, 10.3 million individuals were newly displaced during the year, with the rate of displacement occurring at a staggering pace—approximately 20 people every minute.” (UNHCR)
In response to these conditions, the central objective of this proposal is to offer a sustainable solution - providing permanent land for resettlement. This approach aims not only to address the immediate needs of displaced populations through temporary shelter but also to support the long-term restoration of livelihoods and the development of stable, self-sustaining communities.
The proposal directly adopts the concept of real land, (to the right) with supportive structures and essential amenities integrated, from where the housing units will be developed.
