‘OVERSKY’ GRAPHICS

Oversky is a response to how households can reduce their emissions within the urban environment. As a total, private households are one of the biggest contributors to the emission of greenhouse gases. These emissions are often related to a city’s infrastructure such as energy and water supply and waste management. Oversky is Framlab’s proposal to a larger transformation by redefining how we look upon and use our residential habitat. Conceived as a multi-story building suspended above the street that connects households in adjacent buildings, Oversky centralizes various functions while using environmentally friendly materials that would be able to reduce combined emissions. The project is focused on sharing resources and targets big cities where its positive impacts could be pooled by entire neighborhoods. If cities will continue to be important hubs for people and the world economy, perhaps we need to change our perception of what it means to live in a city.

01. Cirrocumulus clouds are high-altitude tropospheric clouds that are short-lived, transitional and wispy in nature.

02. Cumulus clouds are detached, individual tufts of that are spotted in fair weater conditions.

03. Stratus clouds are low-level layered tyoes and hold a nebulosus form that is persistent over long periods of time.
