ONE FOR ALL DESIGN PROPOSAL

“After the pandemic is over...” must be one of the most frequently uttered phrases of 2021. Throughout the his- tory of mankind, optimism is the power of giving impetus to evolution. Yet, the sense of crisis is the key to keep us alive. The pandemic might be over, but we shall always be prepared for it.”

02plans Perhaps, no one could imagine that this 4000mm by 9400mm plan is transformed from a box which is only 1400mm by 4000mm in plan. This 37.6 square meter plan has been designated into a 3m height. The composite material of fibre-reinforced polymer has been used under- neath. As a floor, it is not only strong and durable, but also waterproofing in most of the conditions. 8

The corrugated ALCOM ALRIB wraps around the front and rear side of the shelter, additionally the centre. The core box is a trapezium with two unique water tanks at right and left side, an acute triangle pointing down. Each water tank takes more than 500L of water. The top of it is made of two pieces of solar panels, can generate approxi- mately 800 watts of electricity per hour, supplying all the electrical applica- tions shall not be an issue. 9

There is scarcely a resource more precious and crucial to life than water. Yet as we all know, water is a non-renewable resource, and its conservation is especially important in drought-prone disasters. While there are many things we as architects can do to save water. By designing structure and specifying products with sustainable wa- ter management at the rooftop, saving water becomes an effortless part of everyday life. 03elevations 10

Balancing aesthetic daring and technical sophistication with a keen sense of place, the scheme is straightforward: A single volume, rectangular in plan, is topped by a trapezium with several layers of orange metal in the middle. The solar panels provide all the electricity needed, while the bottom of it is a gable with light well. The wire mesh serves as natural ventila- tion and lighting covers all over the shelter. 12

As we never leave the notion of a shelter – protect the inhabitants. one plus one could be larger than two. 15
