Future Cities Lab’s HYDRAMAX Port Machines project proposes a radical rethinking of San Francisco’s urban waterfront post sea-level rise. The proposal renders the existing hard edges of the waterfront as new “soft systems” that would include aquatic parks, community gardens, wildlife refuges and aquaponic farms. A synthetic architecture is introduced that blurs the distinction between building, landscape, infrastructure and machine. Using thousands of sensors and motorized components, the massive urban scale robotic structure harvests rainwater and fog, while modulating air flow, solar exposure and intelligent building systems.
Interactive harbor face to sustainability and control of the quality of life through interactive technologies.
Returning of a port function for a system with a new redesign of the waterfront. The project includes systems of "soft" water parks, community gardens, wildlife refuges and aquaponic farms. Uses thousands of sensors and motorized components, the rainwater is collected in a robotic structure in which is reworked in the form of mist, by modulating the flow of air, exposure to the sun is reprocessed through intelligent systems. The complex is made up of infrared sensors that process information to control the light through LED systems.
