WHAT IS FUTURE FOREST?
I imagine that in a dystopian future cities will completely lose their urban nature due to the current global environmental issues. Hence, FUTURE FOREST to me is a technological substitute of actual nature that has the same qualities — photosynthesis, oxygen generation, organic forms, and adaptation to its environment.
My project is called SMART FOREST. Its intention is to create and test a strategy for the FUTURE FOREST implication in the nowadays world. To do so, I introduce a smart technology of green energy generation into the KAMPUNG site. A social part of the project involves the local community to take part in the development of the technological system, and use the green spaces provided by it. By interacting with the smart infrastructure in the everyday life people learn how to use it and benefit from it. They get new job opportunities, healthy social areas, and green energy to use in their household.

Technological Forest
Green Corridors
Kampung site with the algae energy-generating structures, such as generators, workshops, and green spaces.
Locals utilise spaces on the sides of the railway and turn them into the extensions of their homes.
In the morning women learn about algae technology and work in the garden.
During the day the workshop is occupied by male workers who construct the algae creatures.
