The competition " The local utopia in the global dystopia" The problems of humanity in 2050. Goal of the competition it is offer local solutions to global problems by using the design methods of architecture House of boredom.
It's not a secret that every new year of life is in more intense pace (that each
additional year of life is more intense
and brings a faster pace).
This is probably associated with the development of new scientific achievements of mankind in the
sphere of innovation in communication and generally the development of
civilization.
Our lives, especially in large cities, is full of means to
simplify our lives, such as mobile phones, the Internet, personal and public
transport and others. Everything is
designed to increase our leisure time. All our efforts lead to
save time with everyday tasks, but paradoxically, free time is more worth and we have got it less.
It is not hard to
imagine that in 40 years, the society accelerates the pace of life so that
no every person can deal with that . Everlasting tense of performance will lead to general chronic
fatigue. It will be impossible to find a place for rest. For this we need new space, with no
signs of social ties, with no side objects, where people can be secluded with time.
Such space can look
like a separate building. These buildings can be a lot and can be located in different parts of the
city. Every man could take an
advantage for using of this building.
In the main room of the building there is only a bed.
Getting to it is possible through the
hall, in which a person has to put aside
all things and take off the clothes. In this room, someone stops to
understand the time and is able to leave
it only in case when feels the need.
The purpose of
the building is to
get bored. It is given only through feeling the time.
