Adaptive city

Me and some of my classmates in Iran participated in the 2017 IAAC completion.

The respective topic was responsive cities.

We created an adaptive system for Yazd, one of the cities in Iran to protect citizens from the sand storm in there from there. 

In this project, we designed floating balloons that are adaptive to cold and hot weather.

In cold weather, the space between the floating balloons will increase and let the sun's radiation pass.

While in the hot weather, the floating balloons will gather and inflate to block the sun's rays.
