multi-functional administrative city, Korea

There are only a few instances that we are fortunate enough to have people that teach us the most difficult thing to teach: to love what we do.

I just added Michel Rojkind to the list of one of the most influential professors I ever had.

he project is finally taking shape, not only conceptually but also formally…. The intention is to provide canopy covered spaces that prevent soil erosion, generate a water harvester tower that uses evaporation/condensation as a means to harvest and recycle water and provide recreation and commercial spaces around the central node (tower) and extensive field around (horizontal trellises)… There is a need to establish a water allocation process in order to formalize existing water use rights and manage water demands around the Lake Chad drainage basin. There needs to be a policy implementation of river channel improvement works, water augmentation and promotion of conservation techniques…Sustainable agricultural practices and sustainable management of natural resources need to be encouraged within the basin
