Hii, I am a second year architecture student from Mumbai. I have participated in a competition in which I need to design a tourist and research center on moon. Hence I need information on architecture in space and also I want to research about the suitable technologies and techniques to sustain life on moon or space for that matter.
Please help by sharing your info on the topic and also by suggesting appropriate websites and books.
Off the top of my head I would start by looking at what BIG is proposing for Mars. There is a ton of research to back up their designs as well are going to be building a giant simulator in AEU.
Nasa as well has commissioned Search+ to explore 3d printed towers for settlements on mars.
Lifehack: most universities have these secret places with bound stacks of paper, often called books, which are searchable by topic. These places are in dedicated buildings with people who are paid to help you find shit. Have you even tried a library?
There is so much precedent design theory from the 60s-70s to pull from... can't imagine you've done much leg work on this and just said fuck it, let's just get some random people on the internet to do my homework instead.

I believe SOM recently published a collaboration they had done with MIT on moon structures as well.

Check out the work being produced by students in M.S. Space Architecture: http://sicsa.egr.uh.edu/
And also some of the work produced recently by Foster for Mars Habitat and the SOM/MIT proposal for Moon habitation.

You're gonna need a beefy air barrier.
Just slap some illustrations from DUNE on your board. Should be sufficient.
best advice yet. Don't forget to wear your stillsuit while you present.
Just remember...the best material for building a colony in space is bullshit.
