In the winter of 2019, we decided to participate in a competition called 24H Ideas Forward. The unique rule of this competition was that, aside from a few keywords, the theme would remain undisclosed until 24 hours before the submission deadline. Using the provided keywords - Something Big, Something Huge, City, Subpopulation, Future, Drones, Robots, Evolution, Building, A.I.” - we brainstormed ideas and speculated on potential themes. We also prepared visualization materials in advance in Photoshop and Illustrator.
When the theme was finally revealed, it focused on designing a megastructure to house 5,000 inhabitants while incorporating best practices in sustainability and energy efficiency. We spent about three hours discussing the narrative and dividing tasks, then began drawing. Fortunately, we were all aligned in our vision, which we'd conveyed to each other only in words. We completed the project within the 24-hour timeframe.
I deeply appreciate my teammates - we truly understand each other, don't we?
