This project stands as a landmark in my career as it distills multi-disciplinary understanding in me. Further, site visits enhanced my understanding of site problems, practicality and design changes to suit site conditions. Overall this project is a beacon of my skills, design capability and all my learning

Winners - Mechanical Model Category, 1st Place
The structure takes its inspiration from the traditional Iroquois longhouse. Its orientation manipulated to grow vertically because the future would demand for increased shelter proportional to population growth. We imagine a world where genetically modified trees and plant forms can become the building material, with modified pigmented networks forming the skin. We conclude that in the future is transient. Since the entire structure is alive, once its purpose is terminated, it becomes one with nature. As the name suggests, Aputi, Inuktitut for “snow on the ground”, disappears after a season of need.
