Research's IaaC - Cape Town

A combination of micro-systems, in a structure, giving it the character of a building…….or not. A public student residence, in a city with a 24 year old medium age, 3 universities………but no public student accommodation for the poor. An infrastructure without walls and using reflections to deal with the high crime rate……psychology in action. Sun collectors, water collectors that function in a different way above or under the ground……...the positive and negative. The functions that emerge from the different microenvironments……..no predetermined use of space. A self-sufficient building(?) situated on the limit……. By Panagiota Piperidou
