EFFEKT

an innovative new housing model dubbed ReGen Villages (short for regenerative) has been developed in response to some of the world’s most pressing environmental, social and economic issues.

the concept combines a variety of innovative technologies, such as energy positive homes, renewable energy, energy storage, door-step high-yield organic food production, vertical farming aquaponics/aeroponics, water management and waste-to-resource systems.

Whilst half of the global population currently lives in cities, the efficiency of the ReGen systems could reduce a household’s dependency on high-frequency urban living. This would open up a new wave of peri-urbanism and rural development, allowing a more sustainably distributed density of people across the planet’s surface. This distribution would also ease the burden on municipal and national governments who are currently buckling under the pressure of their overpopulated areas.
