As the Netherlands faces increasing sea level rise and flooding risks due to climate change, it's important to consider strategies that can help mitigate these impacts. Our proposal is to encourage people living on the west coast to move to the east, where the risks are lower. To prepare for potential crises, we've focused on the towns of Winterswijk and Vreden on the Dutch-German border. Both of these towns are facing challenges related to loss of biodiversity and the impact of human activity on their uniq

A 3D exterior rendering of the reimagined Hoover Dam as a green energy hub and autonomous city. The image shows a modern, angular design with solar panels and wind turbines integrated into the structure. The dam is surrounded by a public park with greenery, trees, and water features. Visitors can be seen walking on the observation decks, and the visitor centers are visible on the sides of the structure.

Ecological design is a novel typology that seeks to break the boundaries between the human and the non-human worlds. Our intervention is intended to utilize a mastery of architectural atmospheric spaces to inspire an affectual, emotional response of the participants within the space.
