Imagining 2070
Impact of Urbanization and climate change on the future human living lifestyle
Timeline: 5 weeks
(October 2022)
Background / Problem
As the world continues to rapidly urbanize, many of the region’s development challenges: governance and access to service, and environmental sustainability
Urban centres will hold the key to a sustainable and inclusive future, with the dual challenge of supporting urban poor and responding to climate change.
In the future...
More fluid to maximize the use of space, save energy
Emphasis on temporary, eco-friendly, flexible, inventive spaces
- Linkage between the issues of climate change and inclusive, sustainable urbanization
- Living a more sustainable and multi-location lifestyle
#1 Idea
Portable Shelter / Tent (For warm and humid climate- Eastern Asia)
My design got inspired from Isopod, Armadillo, and Insects' wings that feature folding & unfolding elements and contain segmented structure.
Low fidelity sketch
High fidelity model sketch
Aluminum for the structural member of the architecture (base part) - lighter than iron and more resistant from different climate conditions such as rains and snow
ETFE for outer layer : translucent material which will bring light and protect from Ultraviolet rays

High-fi Prototype
#2 Idea
Hinged windows (Detailed design of portable tent)
Shutter hinged windows are used, which can adjust the size of opening required at day and night time, and let shades the shelter for minimum heat gain.
#3 Idea
Portable sleeping bag
Comes out with a form of traveling suitcase, and once it gets expanded, it becomes a sleeping bag where user can get inside and take a rest or sleep.
Thank you!
