OURCHALLENGE

How might

we move beyond sustainability and make cities and urban life regenerative?

-Create a more regenerative world-

To replenish and restore

To remove more carbon than we emit

To build back biodiversity

To actively contribute to social justice

BACKGROUND SITUATION BUT

Rural communities in Colombia are trying to return to their territory after the Peace Treaty signed in 2016

Do they have access to basic services adequately?

Notreally

In fact, most communities do not have access to optimal sanitation services.

FOCUS

How might we envision a regenerative neighborhood of the future?

Change in worldview

Speculative and narrative architecture

WHAT HOW WHY

After the Peace Treaty in 2016. A lot of communities started a process to recover their territory and for us, it is important to support this through the improvement of physical spaces

Design of cooperative communities

GENDER ISSUES

Due to the social dynamics of the community, the activities associated with the bathrooms have a less intimate condition than in westernized societies. That is why the porosity of the space does not present a potential problem of gender issues.

This means that if the design is going to be adapted to other communities, it must be reviewed and adapted to their specific conditions.
