Crypto town in Iceland.

This project looks deeply into blockchain technology, its trajectory, application, potential, and limitation to propose and constructive, imaginative narrative of the possible future. The proposal includes synthesized sustainable energy strategies to build a comprehensive model that will have a positive impact on multiple sectors.

Story Narrative

AI-assisted inspiration image generation. We wrote our imaginary experience and the world-telling story for our crypto-town from the first-person perspective. By utilizing the vqGAN (generative adversarial network), the novel imagery serves as the drive for of form-finding elements in order to build our world of blockchain city.

Urban Design

Assisted by CycleGAN (generative adversarial network). We draw various site constrain such as fault lines, topology and design intend on to the original site to serve as the parameter of the network. Interwoven with the designer’s aesthetic decision, the AI starts to trace and reconfigure the element and produce output as the image as the proposed site map.

RESEARCH

The project approach the design with the understand of energy from the first principle perspective.

Gallery

Using AI generate image as inspiration, the architecture element in this project navigate between the familiar vernacular and new possibility of construct reality.
