競賽背景 / Competition background
世界上大約50%的人居住在城市，人口約70億。預計到2050年，這一比例將增加到大約75％。這意味著，到2050年，預計大多數居民將生活在城市地區。
城鎮化的好處非常明顯，城市不僅是歷史和文化中心，而且還是世界經濟熱點。但是，現代城市也存在許多問題。隨著當前城市的增長，對自然資源的競爭已上升到無法解釋的水平，導致全球資源短缺。快速的城市化導致對現有基礎設施和供應鏈的壓力增加，導致社會變革，例如缺乏凝聚力的社區。
這也正是該競賽所要關注的最重要的方面——重新設計社區的消費和生活模式，以使社區能夠自給自足和生態友好。這意味著要恢復橫向分工，重新點燃共享精神，從而形成社區生活文化。競賽的目標是通過提高資源配置效率，提高城市自立更生和恢復力的標準。
是時候重新設計我們的未來了！

Shelter Challenge PARAMETRIC IDEATION COMPETITION 2020
Eco-Adobe – Shelter Open Call
The current scenario of punishing cycles of unpredictable natural calamities, overcrowded conditions or lack of access to land and affordable housing poses people the risk of living with a constant burden of uncertainty, stress and fear. The Eco-Abode shelter design challenge aims to address this situation and design a modular shelter that is affordable, compact, portable and promotes community living.
Challenge
The shelter design should consider the local context and growth from unit to community-scale specific to the Southeast Asian Climate. Create your own scalable, self-sustaining, modular Eco-Abode which focuses on human-cenctric design supported by technology. The requirements of the solutions are listed below.
Rewards
The chosen concept will be built at Jurong Innovation District ( JID ) in Singapore.
Eligibility
Open Category with proof of concept
Target Deployment

INTRODUCTION
Cities are home to more than 50% of the world population, which is made up of about seven billion inhabitants. This figure is projected to increase significantly to about 75% by 2050. This means that the majority of inhabitants will be, predicted to live in urban areas by 2050.
The benefits of urbanisation are quite clear, with cities not only being historical and cultural hubs but also the world’s economic hotspots. However, there are also many problems associated with modern cities. With the current growth rate of cities, competition for natural resources has risen to unexplainable levels, resulting in a global resource shortage. Rapid urbanisation has led to increased stress on the existing infrastructures and supply chain, resulting in social changes such as lack of cohesive community.
This brings us to the most important aspect of this project – we aim to redesign the consumption and living patterns of communities to make them self-sustainable and eco-friendly. The implication is to restore the horizontal division of labour and rekindle the sharing spirit that leads to a culture of community living. By increasing the efficiency of resource allocation, we aim to raise the bar for self-sustenance and resilience of cities.
It’s time to redesign our future!
Let’s get Parametric!
The Parametric Design competition aims to challenge the pre-existing perceptions of designers by calling them to explore on innovative concepts and sustainable technologies.
The focus of the competition is to adopt a kaleidoscopic, parameter-based approach to conceptualise and design a sharing community for a better future.
Be the change maker and perceive the environment in an alternative way.

CHALLENGE
Project Shea – The next Generation Civilisation Kit is a joint initiative by EcoLabs and Mistletoe Inc. to bring about a change in the design of future cities with the concept of sharing to sustain. Participants are invited to design using sustainable materials, a robust prototype of self-sufficient dwelling with the potential to expand into a modular community with sustainable materials where individuals can live, work, play and exchange ideas.
The lowest comprehensive compact spatial unit is 25sqm.
We encourage the use of an integrated systems approach, where the boundaries of existing technologies, innovative concepts, materials and ideas are challenged through the implementation of energy efficient technology, water systems, spatial planning and material resource usage.
Site
Participants are to choose a site area of 3,000 sqm in Southeast Asia and demonstrate the lowest or smallest dwelling unit, which is the starting point for a community to rise and flourish in the future. The core vision of the demonstration is to maximise the functional area within a minimum footprint by using out of box concepts to create resourceful spaces.
Dwelling Requirements
The requirements for the smallest dwelling unit are as follows:
- Maximum of 25 sqm of floor area per person with private and additional shared space.
- Design should cater to the individual’s personal needs ( resting, bathing, cooking and working ) and community requirements ( interacting ).
- Portable and easy to assemble/construct on site, easily scalable ( modular ) to a community ( vertically or horizontally ).
- Made of eco-friendly and affordable materials.
- Able to maintain indoor temperature within the range of 24 – 28 degree Celsius.
- Design to be structurally feasible and must satisfy local codes for wind, lightning and rainfall protection
The dwelling to community level growth shall be designed thinking beyond the current standards for sustainability, embracing a comprehensive solution, explored through the following sustainability parameters.
