Jungle town
Jungle Town is an experimental approach for a sustainable community based on deep human-environment interaction through the design of a complex organism where the predominant energy flows that make a structure with emergent properties similar to a body living.The tessellation cells defines the urban structure and it means the transformation of the territory through the structure you have a shade that is the basis for the conversion of fertile soil in sandy soil, the structure of the Jungle town will absorb the heat given by ' to convert sunlight into energy that will power the desalination of sea water for the development of the plant the first colony in the various stages that will be organized according to a system to become self-generated space built.Within each cell there is a system created by the buildings seen as dynamic systems that process information from the environment. The description of the processes Jungle town serves as a necessary substrate (input) the induction of new organizational processes in a model car retrospective, the means of investigation thus becomes a tool for participatory planning: the observation of reality leads to a transformation of reality sameThe process of evolution and self-organization of the village is generated from participation understood as an act of transformation of the territory where natural and artificial are intimately connected.The content of the cell is given by the units that may have different spatial configurations of surface and needs of the people: the possibility of expansion is given in a single axis defined by curved balconies (true green roofs) that are responsible for ensuring large shaded areas and link the level 1 at an altitude of +3.50 mThe spatial patterns and the boundaries between cells will be variable because of the needs of the people, the links will take place at 0.00 share. the minimum unit is a cell vertically developed to optimize the natural conditioningThe balconies - the ventilation towers and gardens provide an adequate natural ventilation, each cell will be equipped with photovoltaic system capable of producing energy for the needs of the cell and its immediate surroundingsIn addition to living cells made with traditional techniques and natural will be located in the village of mobile units that can be self-sufficient, or enter into symbiosis with the traditional fixed cells. The mobile cells contribute to the creation of a dynamic environment that can evolve independently to the outskirts of the system generating other metastructures with a growth system similar to a living organismThe conformation of the mobile units allows the exploitation of solar energy through photovoltaic system that covers the external protection made of hollow steel structure that also serves the task of natural ventilation of the cell.
