New Aquaponic Housing Design Could Lead To Complete Self-Efficient Ecosystem
Living a self-sufficient life is something worth striving for. Some countries like Costa Rica already began their campaign on preserving energy resources and eventually break free from fossil fuels. But that’s obviously only part of the story humanity has to write now, in order to stay resilient.
Natural resources are diminishing and might vanish altogether, entire ecosystems have become unstable and reshaped, so architects and designers are in need for more creative ways to help us all survive the next century.
There’s lots of competition design-wise out there for future innovations on Biodesign or housing. Especially interesting is a conceptual design by Mihai Chiriac from DS 10 Studio at The University of Westminster termed Aquaponic Future Housing.
This housing concept is slated for 3D printing techniques only using simple materials. It’s also made in way that allows for growing its own food inside, helping residing families to stay of the grid if they want and live, to a certain degree, completely self-sufficient.
