RECONSTRUCTION THE ASIAN DEPOPULATION COMMUNITY THROUGH ARCHITECTURE
BRIEF
In recent years, the repidly aging population, stemming from the declining birthrate as well as accelerating migration of young people to urban areas, has resulted in serious depopulation of some regional communities in Asian countries.
Considering the way the residents are living in the areas and existing communities should be, how do you think you can help rebuild the area as a sustainable community through architecture?
In general, the following cases are cited as the main problems of depopulating areas: – As young people moved to the city, the entire region becomes aged and there is no successor for regional industry or elderly care. – Advanced aging and population decline of an area make it difficult for the local infrastructure to be maintained, making it hard for the area to survive. There processes even cause the decline of regional culture.
The challenge of this theme will be how you can comprehend and recognize the problems of the chosen area. Consider approaches such as, but not limited to those listed below: – A mechanism to prevent the out-migration of young people – A mechanism to promote in-migration – Effective utilization of vacant permises – A mechanism to revitalize regional industries – A mechanism to attract more investment from outside sources.
SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS : Each submission must include the following contents in English: SITE LOCATION : The participant can select any specific site as the site of their design, but it must be in an Asian country. DESIGN RESPONSE : After identifying the site, provide the project description, concept of the design, basic drawings (including floor plans and elevations), and renderings, or perspective drawings in any scale.
