project description
TO is a physical and social space that allows the inhabitant to reflect on how their behavioural habits relate to sustainability. The team proposes a revision of daily activities, ways of living and of the inhabited spaces that are inherited from the past. They understand habitation, in all of its dimensions, as a key factor of individual dynamics, especially as these relate to those of society. With the aim of triggering an ecosistemic change, they propose a space dwelling that is structured around new logics of use and consumption, new day-to-day practices and new ways of interaction and living. TO project seeks that the user understands its functioning; it allows users the opportunity for good waste management, turning waste into resource, and to manage space comforts.
key features
-
First, to broaden the scope of the project so that it not only follows a sustainable housing model, but fosters a change towards an ecosistemic future.
-
Second, this change starts with small actions at home, with a critical attitude towards day-to-day habits.
-
Third, they acknowledge that we carry out these domestic actions everywhere in the city, which has, in turn, become our home.
-
Fourth, in consequence, the only agent determining our habits is ourselves. As such, that change starts with self-analysis.
-
And five, they understand their prototype as a material, an interactive and educational expression of this manifesto.
