The Dakaku Buildings are born from the expansion of Daegu in the 90’s. They are building from 3 to 5 floors, with approximatly 2 to 5 appartements a floor, and they are raised to let the ground floor available for cars.
The objective of the study is to remake this typology in a profit of human scale ground floor, to remove the asphalt and let the soil breath on the same way. It is a continuum and an expension of the « Co-Educative Inclusive Playground» project from the automn semester : food production. To make it, we use a strategy similar to Aldo Van eyck in Amsterdam : The children are the key to a human scale ground floor.
The neighborhood actentuate the «stair mophorlogy» and take the geometry of a square. The center and the whole ground floor is the main place of meeting and exchanging production of the whole site. People are invited to appropriate this space like in the «no-stop city» from Archizoom.
The green balcony are private vegetable garden directly in the kitchen, people benefits of a circular system based on mechanic dry toilets and the help of some pigs. Pigs can eat human waste and food waste to create a good topping soil.
The building is a mix of wooden structure and straw isolation which make a difference in the total weight and permit wooden fondations.
