SUSTAINABLE SYSTEM
Synthesis of two different naturally existing systems gives us the opportunity to challenge existing traditional organizational systems within city planning and building typologies. Within this context, we propose a planning strategy to support the multiple agencies of tourism and ecological development. By considering the intersections of future transportation, our design scheme proposes a fully walkable connection across different small island formed by the intersections of the rivaas and the variegatus. We use different scales of the variegatus system to form different functions on the island all separated keeping in consideration the natural ecologies and social impact. We propose a port entrance and a bridge connection ( automobile traffic ) commencing in a parking lot further which only pedestrians are admitted. The different levels in these connection provide for different functions such as amphitheater, pavilion, shade and parks etc.

This project was an extension of the previous detailed investigation of natural
artifact. After studying two different systems of Rivaas and Variegatus on
different scales and also analysing how they react when superimposed over each other we speculate the possibility of an absolute self-sustainable
urbanism that can balance and integrate the aims of culture, nature and business to re-claim the importance of intelligent ecology as the advancement of 21st century urbanism.

Overlaying the two systems helps us understand their vocabulary and the converging points through which we can define a new network based on a fixed mass void ratio.
