The project concept is a vision of the world as a conglomeration of both natural and artificial phenomena. The industrial containers are manipulated in a process of re-signifyng in a new association with the enviromantal elements. The containers are appropriately modified and used as giant brick, a formal and spatial unit to suggest a new way of living, suited to the needs of the contemporary life. The proposal is a variable density urban housing complex designed to function as a natural-artificial “urban sponge” filtering the incoming urban inputs. Gianluca Evels & Stefania Papitto
