Wheelbeing - proposal for Tallinn Architecture Biennale 2022. At the center of the structure, it is placed a big knitting machine, which is 8.5 meters in diameter and is powered by a small engine that activate the whole system. Its mechanism, obtained by a modified system of industrial knitting machines, is composed by 90 steel hooks (needles) and wooden parallelepiped shape guide pins. These pins move top-down and trigger the knitting cycle by creating a tube-shaped fabric. The strand is made by bio-fiber obtained from plants. Initially, the machine will produce a fabric that will create an intimate space within the circle. There, a number of seeds will be planted, to create, during its two-year lifetime, a therapeutic garden for all. The garden will grow more and more each day, thanks to the microclimate generated by the fabric, which will protect it from the wind and generate water from the atmosphere by using the dew condensation collected during the night. This natural space will be composed by a large number of plants, which will be useful and edible. The aim of the machine’s mechanism is to collect the strand so that, once it will be fully released, the garden will be grown and ready to donate its fruits to the local community. Once the project is dismantled the garden will continue to exist, leaving a strong trace of the installation. Wheelbeing is our Tallinn Architecture Biennale 2022 entry. I am really proud to present some workflows of the Master “Circular Architecture – Shapes and Methodologies” at SAAD Scuola di Architettura e Design (University of Camerino) in Ascoli. Siamo felici di annunciare che sono aperte le iscrizioni per il primo workshop per la realizzazione del Giardino Urbano "Jhonny Cirillo". Il Workshop01 ha come tema la Progettazione Partecipata in Permacultura e sarà tenuto da Andrea Fiore ( @arch.andrea.fiore ), Architetto ed esperto di Permacultura. LINK IN BIO Posted @withregram • @tallinnarchitecturebiennale From today until the end of the August we will introduce 12 best projects for TAB 2022 Installation Competition. Today I want to tell you something special. I was commissioned to design the "Jhonny Cirillo" urban garden, a project that aims to provide a second chance for some young people as an alternative to prison detention.
