Autoflux Aquatic Units ProjectAutoflux

The Autoflux aquatic units project represents a novel approach to addressing urban flooding, by embracing the idea of symbiosis with natural forces, rather than attempting to resist them.

The concept of Aquatic Urbanism introduces a paradigm shift in urban design, where flood-prone areas are not seen as liabilities but as opportunities for coexistence and innovation.

By leveraging responsive mechanical systems and constant adaptation, Autoflux aims to create architecture that not only withstands flooding but actually benefits from it, thriving in an environment traditionally considered inhospitable.

This approach, inspired by the automotive industry’s mass producibility and adaptability, envisions a form of architecture that allows occupants to relocate or aggregate as needed, following a life-sustaining protocol.

Drawing from advancements in design, fabrication, and materials, Autoflux seeks to combine the efficiency and innovation of the nautical and automotive industries to create structures that are both resilient and resourceful. By embracing the instability of susceptible environments, the project aims to design a new strategy for urban life that is not disrupted by geological events but rather coexists harmoniously with them.
