About the project

Challenge, approach and results.

The topic of his diploma thesis focuses on the media interpretation of urban dwellings of the future. Within this framework, he explored **the possibilities of incorporating elements of self-sufficiency into the urban environment **, which are closely linked to the location of the building, its purpose, and the improvements that could be introduced into its design. He also incorporated a 'smart grid' into the project design, which connects the entire building and enables the use of a smart home system that eliminates traditional elements of dwellings. This approach contributed to the sales power of the project, which he further strengthened through the use of media communications and technological advances, incorporating them into the vision of the future of property sales. To achieve the desired research objective, he conducted extensive research online and in books, and obtained mixed responses and opinions from residents of the residential building.

Problem

The topic of his diploma thesis focuses on the media interpretation of urban dwellings of the future. Within this framework, he explored the possibilities of incorporating elements of self-sufficiency into the urban environment, which are closely linked to the location of the building, its purpose, and the improvements that could be introduced into its design. As part of his project, he converted unused spaces into communal rooms, which led to better utilisation of space.

He built upon this by using a green façade, which cooled the interior of the building during the summer months and heated it in winter. In addition, he installed a garden on the roof of the building, which was directly connected to wind and solar power plants. This enabled the use of technological advances within the dwellings themselves.

Solution and Method

He also incorporated a 'smart grid' into the project design, which connects the entire building and enables the use of a smart home system that eliminates traditional elements of dwellings.

Results

This approach contributed to the sales power of the project, which he further strengthened through the use of media communications and technological advances, incorporating them into the vision of the future of property sales. To achieve the desired research objective, he conducted extensive research online and in books, and obtained mixed responses and opinions from residents of the residential building. The research results ranged from fictional genres to the everyday social life of people as a community.

At the same time, I wonder how the design of sustainable and environmentally friendly solutions can contribute to addressing climate challenges. By focusing on the role of art and design in response to the climate crisis, I wish to contribute to the discussion about how creativity and innovation can contribute to a more sustainable future. The entire project includes diverse refinements of already existing practices, which he combined into a future scenario where all of this is possible.

In addition, he also used the latest technological advances, which he incorporated into the communication of the product itself, and used self-sufficiency as the main concept in his project. Finally, there is also the aspect of the actual number of residents who could experience and adapt to this change in the way of living.
