Abstract

This studio revisits the basic needs of human settlement – namely Live, Work and Play. Currently, these three basic human activities necessitate a high dependence on fossil fuel transportation to move people. People live in a town, work in another, shop in yet another and go to faraway places for recreation. The main idea is to create a development whereby all these three can happen within an autonomous society. This exercise is named ‘WOLP Cosmos” – a cosmos where all the basic needs: Work, Live and Play (WOLP) are clustered together to minimize the generation of new vehicular artery in and out of the city.
