Architecture for all

In  collaboration  with
Prof. Dr. Sadiye Müjdem Vural
& Hasseb Kalou


Architecture for all:
- Building 4Humanity
-  Combra, Portugal, 2018 

We focus on creating a modular system that is adaptable to different weather conditions. The design draws inspiration from nature, with features inspired by penguins and beavers to provide protection from the cold and ventilation in hot weather.

Design:
The modular design of the Architecture for All proposal allows for flexibility and adaptability, with individual units that can be easily assembled and disassembled to meet the changing needs of the camp. The units are designed to be durable and weather-resistant, with materials that can withstand extreme temperatures and harsh conditions.

In winter, the units follow the penguin strategy for warmth, with a focus on insulation and minimizing heat loss. The units are designed to be compact and well-insulated, with multiple layers of materials to provide maximum thermal protection. Additionally, the units are designed to be easily sealed to prevent drafts and retain warmth.

In summer, the units follow the beaver ventilation strategy, with a focus on creating natural ventilation to promote air flow and keep the units cool. The design incorporates wind towers that are inspired by the ventilation systems used by beavers in their lodges. These towers draw in cool air from outside and distribute it throughout the unit, providing natural and energy-efficient cooling.

Construction:
The construction of the Architecture for All proposal is designed to be simple and efficient, with a focus on using locally available materials and labor. The modular design allows for easy assembly and disassembly, with minimal tools and equipment needed.

The proposal also incorporates sustainable features, such as rainwater harvesting and solar energy, to reduce the environmental impact and increase self-sufficiency.

Conclusion:
Architecture for All  is a innovative design concept that addresses the unique challenges faced by refugees in harsh and unpredictable environments. By drawing inspiration from nature and incorporating modular, adaptable features, the proposal provides a practical and sustainable solution for refugee camps.

Let’s drink coffee together !
