Vitality!

Our team offers to Europan’s Västerås Project a metabolistic approach to sustainable urbanistic development. Our philosophy value is multilayered co-evolution in time, where the social and ecological are intertwined in synergy, as much as the Västerås municipality. We meet the Europan 16 Competition themes with vitality, from the foundations of living cities’ architecture to inclusive community-building. Our plan for democratic participation will spark these regenerative feedbackloops. This co-evolution will happen through themed pavilions: 1. SOCIAL for gatherings, events, and workshops, 2. GREEN - the soil from contamination, to fertilize it and plant trees, and 3. WATER - purifying action of algae on polluted water, to rebirthing a habitat for aquatic species and to develop underwater ecosystems.
