ACADEMIC WORKEXPLORE THE MOON

EXPLORE THE MOONThe future of architecture has no perfect answer. Architects worldwide adapt to evolving environments and social needs, designing unique structures that push boundaries and embrace the unknown.

Our proposal envisions a simple, economical, and sustainable lunar settlement based on the Weaire-Phelan structure. This aggregation system creates a modular, organic landscape that accommodates future residents. The repetitive yet organic foam design ensures efficient construction and assembly, offering functionality and comfort with minimal effort.This system allows us to build a modular system, simple but at the same time functional with the minimum necessary, ease of construction and assembly ensuring all comforts. Once we built the module, it will be a “kids game” put it in its position and fasten it to the other modules.

YEAR 2029- Cabeus is a crater that is located about a hundred km from the south pole of moon.The solar altitude angle of this area is low. Some part of the area is permanently covered in shadow, which creates a great deal of chance for water to exist.
In 2009 the Centaur satellite of NASA crashed to ground here. After the experiment, the light map signal of water was captured. Chosing Cabeus as the site of the moon base will slove the water shortage problem. And the Cabeus crater has abundent amount of minerals like Ti, Fe, He-3 for the expension of moon base.
