Cultural Community Art Center: A Developmental Initiative The Cultural Community Art Center is envisioned as a cornerstone for tourism and education, aiming to fortify and weave together local communities via socially inclusive spaces. These spaces will serve as vibrant hubs for events, fostering connections, and celebrating the rich tapestry of cultural diversity. The architectural design is a homage to each unique community culture, striving not only to highlight and educate but to rejoice in and disseminate the distinctive communal heritage. It's a project that reveres historical significance, leveraging our collective past as a lens through which we can enrich our future. Design Concept: The DNA of Community At the heart of the concept is DNA, symbolising the intrinsic socio-cultural fabric that defines the community. The interlocking DNA pattern reflects the close bonds of families, friends, and neighbours, whose lives are interwoven into a cohesive society. While their cultural backgrounds may vary, their shared values and appreciation for one another culminate in a blended community, unified in diversity. The intertwined DNA motif underlines the collective harmony among various cultural inhabitants. Architectural Design: Harmony with Nature To mitigate coastal issues like salinity and erosion, the design incorporates a FORM ACTIVE structural system, renowned for load distribution via shape. This system manifests itself in three forms: the cable, arch, and tent systems. The DNA configuration is an intricate blend of these structural systems, yielding a design that allows expansive, self-supporting spaces and optimal natural lighting. Sustainability is a cornerstone of the building's design, with minimal energy consumption and the generation of electricity via photovoltaic cells installed on the tent roofs.

#Bestdesignsoftheyear lists should feel silly for anyone who is serious about design. And yet they always stir my curiosity. The headline ('A chunk of glossy sexiness') of The Guardian Design Review in my inbox did not promise too much for someone looking for #sustainabledesign but the newsletter was worth a closer look. The Right to Repair campaign – chosen by Henrik Taudorf Lorensen, CEO of TAKT – advocates for the right to find ways to repair products that are simpler and cheaper than tossing them into landfill. This new type of 'everyman's right to good products' is an excellent representative of the #morewithless approach we at Finimalism Project wish to promote. Could #repair become really big in 2024? There might be some hopeful signs. Something I'm personally looking forward to: "FIX: Care and Repair" Exhibition by Design Museum, Helsinki and Arkkitehtuurimuseo / Museum of Finnish Architecture, due to open in April. Surely something we'll feature also on finimalism.fi Finimalism 🔨 (Some other highlights of the newsletter were Alex Goad's Reef Design Lab that helps to resolve the habitat damage in coral reefs, and the inspiring design collective Power Out of Restriction that gives voice to the voiceless.) https://lnkd.in/d5viDbDC

**Aesthetic uniformity limits cultural expression** There's a tendency for design trends to converge towards a homogeneous international style. Architecture and design are forms of non-verbal communication that convey meaning about a region’s history, culture, and values. When these elements become standardised, cultural expression is reduced. For example, museums, which serve as custodians of cultural narratives, risk becoming indistinguishable from one another, offering similar visitor experiences regardless of their geographical or cultural context. These global trends dilute local cultural identities and traditions. Designers can combat this by taking a vernacular approach, by incorporating local materials, techniques, and motifs. By engaging local communities and artisans in the process we can ensure that the resulting architecture and design reflect the local context, establishing a true 'sense of place'. #designthinking Photo @unsplash

Our project in 2024, Sombere Park, Submission for National Design Competition DISCO 7 UNDIP 2024 Amidst the bustling streets, fast-paced lifestyle, and towering skyscrapers, urban parks stand as sanctuaries of tranquility, fostering a harmonious relationship between nature and urban life. As cities continue to grapple with flourishing populations, enviromental challenges, and the emerging industry 5.0, the concept smart urban parks emerges as a beacon of innovation and sustainability. This evolution is not just about adding gadgets; it's about enhancing the quality of urban life, making parks more interactive, and acting as an anchor to ground humanity back into nature.

Always interesting to see how design and nature connect.

For my day 18/30, I replicated the sidebar navigation designed by Omer Erdogan. This was a fascinating design that I enjoyed replicating. I hope you like it as much as I do! #Designgate #LearnwithDesigngate #Designgate30DaysUIChallenge #UIChallenge #DesignDay18 #DesignCommunity #UIUXDesigner #DesigngateUIRemix #UIchallenge #Dribbleshotreplicate
