Dear designboom reader,
Recent architecture and design explore ways to cope with climate change. In Pakistan, Yasmeen Lari turns bamboo into a flood-proof pavilion for the zero-carbon Pono Village. Then, creating cooler microenvironments is an outcome of the 3D printed seawalls in Miami, designed to support marine life.
There’s even a proposal for a floating cultural plaza by Carlo Ratti and Höweler + Yoon, named Aquapraça, unveiled at Brazil's COP30. In Venice, visitors to the Architecture Biennale experience the effects of air conditioner use through a humid and heated room at the Arsenale.
Thanks for reading!
