Worldwide, construction and building operations contribute to 33% of greenhouse gas emissions, demanding a commitment to offset this impact. The Carbon Condominium project addresses this by exploring new building materials with a lower carbon footprint and efficient construction methods that reduce energy consumption, costs, and labor. Utilizing composite carbon materials derived from greenhouse gases, the project seeks to redefine both the composition and construction processes of buildings, providing a sustainable response to global warming.
The Carbon Condominium project explores applying composite carbon materials to residential architecture. Investigating emerging carbon forms, especially gas pyrolysis-derived carbon nanotubes, the composite carbon building shell doubles as a solar power generator, epitomizing a holistic blend of sustainability and functionality in residential design. Internally, custom-designed furniture enhances flexibility, with an extendable, movable kitchenette, and foldable furniture optimizing space for daily activities. The structure is unified by monotone, all-carbon aesthetics, presenting an avant-garde approach that seamlessly marries cutting-edge materials with adaptable interiors in this residential project.
