Designing Woodfordia's Future..

This week it was time to narrow down what our 'Architecture Fiction' actually was. Not just the characters but the future visions for Woodford. We decided that 50 years was a good time frame.

First we discussed the technology that might be available to us;
  •  Intelligent robots
  • Clean machinery
  • Clean energy
  • Vertical Farming

Eventually we all narrowd down to the path of climate change and rising sea levels which also plays on the increase in severe weather patterns.



In this imagined future, the residents of Woodford are very multicultural as these 'Climate Refugees'. Going on the principles of the 'Honecomb Pattern' from last week's tute we talked about these climate refugees setting up in these small sustainable hubs through regional Australia.


Things to work on and consider:
  • How does the Folk Festival Run
  • How does that land sustain large communities - investigate the land usage
