023 Moon Base Two 023 Moon Base Two ‘Moon Base Two’ is a further development of the inflatable laboratory “Moon Base One”. Conceived as a long-term base for conducting in situ research and to explore the surrounding environment, it will also help in the study of permanent human settlements far from the Earth. Designed to be transported to orbit and launched by the Ares V rocket, the station automatically deploys after landing, to be ready to accommodate the first astronauts—up to 4 people for 6 months.

  • Evaluating the Functional Performance of Small-Scale Public Demountable Buildings
    Evaluating the Functional Performance of Small-Scale Public Demountable Buildings Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by: Junjie Xi June, 2013 ii Abstract This thesis investigates the design, operation and use of contemporary demountable buildings, and explores how functional performance can be assessed in small-scale examples for public use alongside with their relationship to other design elements. The research focuses on three case studies that do not require a high-technology building environment or complex construction skills. Demountable buildings are defined as those that are transported in a number of parts for assembly on site. Contemporary demountable buildings respond to ecological issues, social impacts, technological innovation and economic demands. They can be used to measure a society’s development in environmental sustainability, innovation and economic growth through various forms. Small-scale demountable buildings fulfil many temporary habitation needs in diverse roles, such as non-emergency transitional housing, ephemeral exhibition buildings and seasonal entertainment facilities. The purpose of examining functional performance is to assess if, and how, the requirements of the design have been achieved. This enables project operators to address functional performance from a public perspective by reflecting on the scope and ambition of their projects. This thesis draws on existing literature to investigate previous and on-going research relating to demountable buildings, including classification, the construction process and project management. It also examines selected existing evaluation methods that cover principles, modelling and computer- based solutions from a wider research area, including Guidelines Developed by City Council and Culture Sectors; Assessment Methods in Humanitarian Response and Methods in Environmental Assessment.

  • Warka Water Dorze, Ethiopia
    2019 On Site Review Report by Rahel Shawl 4539.ETH Warka Water Dorze, Ethiopia Architect Architecture and Vision Client Emergency Programme, Italian Development Cooporation Design & Research 2012-2015 Completed 2015 Warka Water Dorze, Ethiopia I. Introduction In Ethiopia, according to a 2013 UNICEF annual report based on WASH (water, sanitation and hygiene) studies, only around 62% of the population has access to potable water. For many people living in remote parts of the country, access to clean and unpolluted water from pipelines, wells and streams is a daily challenge. The Italian architect Arturo Vittori noticed this during his travels to the Ethiopian highlands, when he saw people struggling up into the hills burdened with heavy loads and carrying water from far-off streams and wells. Upon his return home he started studying and researching possibilities for alternative methods of water collection; harvesting water from the atmosphere. His ideas were inspired by the local vernacular construction systems in the villages of Ethiopia and water dew collection from nature’s resources. After three years of research work and building various prototypes, in May 2015 the architect, with his collaborative team in Ethiopia, developed the Warka Water tower, an alternative water-source prototype project in the highlands of Dorze village in south-west Ethiopia. The prototype tower estimated to collect 100 litres of potable water per day was designed to harvest water from rain, fog and dew. II. Brief historical background While travelling the highlands of Lalibela in the northern part of Ethiopia in 2012, architect Arturo Vittori noticed women and young children carrying water up the difficult slopes to bring it home for their use.

Within this field of study, this thesis identifies a very narrow thematic and historic area of interest. It proposes that the rise of experimental exhibition models in 1920s Weimar Germany was intimately linked to a changed understanding of materiality inspired by the scientific and technological innovations of the time - a fact that has been disregarded in current exhibition scholarship. It demonstrates how ideas about materiality - the calculated layering of materials, colour, light, and text - informed display and engaged audiences. The exhibition environment, previously conceived as a representational backdrop, was not only foregrounded but assigned a central mediating role. These endeavours, I propose, capture the historic moment when traditional nineteenth century exhibition typologies began to be transfigured through novel experimental practices that reveal and develop vital links between material aesthetics and mediation. My original contribution to knowledge consists in the detailed analysis of a series of display models which emerged in Weimar Germany in 1923-30 and which are examined through the lenses of materiality and mediality.
