THE MANUAL OF ETERNAL AUTUMNAL MICRO-CLIMATES FOR KYOTO The Manual of Eternal Autumnal Micro-Climates for Kyoto researches into applicable traditions, materials, and technologies for a sustainable master plan that is forever and only Autumn. ‘The City of Thousand Autumns’ is a 19.16 km2 energy hub for Kyoto, aimed to create eternal
autumn micro-climates to engage in a carbon neutral biomass energy system. A thousand Origami Cranes float above the City, passively shielding and supplementing the Japanese landscape from extreme weather while more importantly cultivating one season only.
