Type: Public, Tourism, Research, Residential
Human being has a long history of envisioning living on the Moon. It could be challenging, innovative, tedious due to its harsh environment, low gravity and scarcity.
Other than an alternative life, living on the Moon provides an opportunity to look back on the Earth. Relying on advanced technology as colonists on this new land would build up a sense of appreciation from the legacy we obtain from the Earth. Individual, as an insignificant one, contemplates the significant in his or her life under this circumstance.
The form of this proposal consists of an aggregation of configuration of the Moon at different phases as to observe on the Earth. This proposal imagines the central hub of the project as an open space for congregation and communication. More importantly, it’s a sanctuary to observe, to comprehend and to meditate.
