TITLE OF PROJECT

FLOATURE

DUE TO CLIMATE CHANGE AND NEW EXTREME WEATHER CONDITIONS GANVIÉ IS SINKING, WHICH POSES A SIGNIFICANT THREAT TO THE VILLAGE’S INFRASTRUCTURE AND THE DAILY LIVES OF ITS INHABITANT. THIS PROBLEM IS ALREADY AFFECTING THE VILLAGE’S LIFE, WHICH PROMPTS US TO CONSIDER HOW WE CAN SUPPORT THE PRESENT AND FUTURE GANVIÉ.

IN ORDER TO TACKLE THIS PROBLEM WITH A LONG-TERM SOLUTION, WE PROPOSE A FLEXIBLE FLOATING SUPPORT, WHICH ADAPTS TO DIFFERENT DAILY NEEDS OF GANVIÉ PEOPLE: HOUSING, WATER COLLECTION, FARMING, PIER, EVEN TRASH COLLECTOR OR FOOD PRODUCTION STATION. TO MANUFACTURE THESE SUPPORTS, A COLLABORATIVE WORKSHOP WILL BE PLASED AT THE PORT OF ABOMEY-CALAVÍ.

THE WORKSHOP IS PLACED IN THE NORTHERN PART, HAVING THE GEOGRAPHICAL BENEFITS OF THE CANAL. CONSIDERING THE FUTURE IMPLICATIONS OF RISING SEA LEVELS, THIS SITE WILL START TO BE FLOODED TOO, THEREFORE THE BUILDING HAS AN AMPHIBIOUS STRUCTURE, CAPABLE OF ADAPTING TO THE WATER LEVELS CHANGING. IN THE FUTURE, WHEN THE WATER COVERS THE LAND, THESE BUILDINGS ARE STILL THERE AND CAN BE STILL USED AS A FLOATING WORKSHOP ON THE WATER. THIS WORKSHOP ALSO OPERATES IN A MODULAR SYSTEM THAT ALLOWS FUNCTION INDIVIDUALLY OR FUTURE EXTENSION. ITS ARRANGEMENT IS DESIGNED BASED ON THE SIZE AND WORKFLOW REQUIRED FOR ASSEMBLING THE FLOATING SUPPORT.
