URBAN pop up ADAPTION
2020 – Pop up healthcare canter
The pop up healthcare center is a temporary place for treatment during the COVID19-pandemic. Because of its modular skeleton construction, the basic building can be divided into several boxes, where patients can be vaccinated, tested or material can be stored. In doctor’s surgeries people often need to wait in a small waiting room next to each other.
The boxed structure of the pop up center allows patients to visit the booths without getting in contact with each other and so prevent a further spreading of the virus. Load is taken off hospitals and doctor’s surgeries.
The construction is very light and can easily be transported and built up. The shape of the boxes follows the grid of the roof construction on which they can be attached. The booths can be individually combined to fit the local needs.
easy – efficient – safe
2025 – Community center
After the pandemic the center can be transformed in many ways. When removing the boxes and adding an external side glazing the center becomes a single enclosed room. Here people may come together again after being separated and isolated by the pandemic for a long time. The open room structure encourages people to communicate with each other. Exhibitions can take place in the community center. It can also be used as a retrospect on the pandemic and its victims.
Together – communication – life
2040 – urban farming greenhouse
For achieving the climate objectives changes in all areas of our modern life are necessary. Cities will be changed due to different mobility behaviour and lifestyle. Urban structures may become even denser than they are now and green hearts within cities must be established. The last phase of the center is a message for future generations, for sustainability and a healthy ecosystem. The center can now be transformed into a greenhouse providing an urban farming location. The greenhouse is also a place for coming together and relaxing in a green surrounding. Residents may grow their own crops and teach others how to live more sustainable and healthier.
lifestyle – ecosystem – sustainability
