I need some insane architectural ideas.

Krisidious

well that's not asking too much.

What you mean? I need Ideas... Something very unusual... I tried it myself a lot of variations, but even High-tech, bio-tech style constructions was too ordinary

Krisidious

I'm just saying that's a tall order. I'll have to ponder it for a while. I might come up with something...

Thanks a lot. This task not so hard as it looks. And it can be really built.

Why am I always the cop!!! ....that .ru url connected my browser to a script nightmare. If you have clicked this fellows .ru link be aware that it is highly intrusive.

Ouch... Do you see second link with .com ? I can download model to other hosting, just say which.

*First link may offer you to download *.htm file. Its not hosting problem, its opera bug (if you use it), same as at gmail. Other browsers offers to download .skp, try it.

Well, that is just a simple file sharing site. Many hosted in the US or Western Europe are equally or even more intrusive (IMO - just as an experience). That's just the "price" for using a free service.

Hi Erhett.

Have you considered the British architect Richard Rogers? Rogers did these budget newbuilds in Oxley Woods, in the UK.

Is this insane enough?

That looks like something my dog coughed up yesterday.

Looks like a mangled sneaker, to me.

What if you did nothing? Left the site alone. Let the world be. Proposed not to build, but to experience the place as it is.
That would be a radical departure from business as usual.

You'd be a very boring anti-progressive with no friends (or money) loner.

Who wants to live like that?

the reason notes have such power in music is because of the spaces in between.

Erhett,

I suggest you get the ball rolling with some of your own ideas and then post them here for some advice and support. Even "crazy" takes a lot of time to develop.

Hi, Its cool, but... It too expensive for now. Structures + facing + glazing... And this style is already not unique.

Thanks. Its cool too. And expensive too...

bmike, its fun. but its not central park in big city. Its big housing estate ~50km from Moscow. What will be the difference to other lands?

My ideas:
First, early variant - to build prefabricated shipping containers with facing... 2 floors, full glazed surfaces. But is have too primitive appearance.

Now im thinking about wood structures...

Part of land. Promenade and pier are existing. Sorry, i cannot send model right now - troubles with connections.

If you want the 'wow' factor, then why not an energy efficient community with houses so energy efficient that they produce more energy than they use (solar heating, PV panels, wind turbines). The housing complex should work like a small village, so residents feel they are part of a community and not living in a dormitory town. That would be the 'wow' factor, and not dodgy architecture. Research examples of sustainable communities, and don't be afraid to take the best of what has been shown to work. Think about the things that people need to make their lives easier, such as nursery schools, pubs, convenience shops, care for the elderly, public transport etc. Look at water usage too, and how waste water might be recycled. The same with human waste management and the recycling of packaging etc. Plant woodland and look at ways and means to support and sustain local flora and fauna.

Bob
