Русский “Ковчег” для всего мира
Российские архитекторы из мастерской Александра Ремизова вместе с академиком Львом Бритвиным предложили обществу уникальный проект под названием “Ковчег”. Это биоклиматическое сооружение спроектировано как автономная энергетическая система, основанная на альтернативных источниках энергии (солнце, ветер, приливы-отливы, переработка отходов). По замыслу архитекторов, сооружение способно противостоять катастрофам будущего.
Основа “Ковчега” – гигантская труба, внутри которой располагаются электростанция, генераторы, насосы, и инженерные коммуникации. Сверху размещается все остальное, необходимое людям для работы и отдыхаю
Русский “Ковчег” может вместить до 10000 человек и быть собран в любой точке планеты с любыми климатическими условиями. Он неприхотлив в эксплуатации и для его сборки не требуются сверхдорогие материалы.
ЭКОпроект российских архитекторов был награжден дипломом третьей степени на Первом международном фестивале инновационных технологий в архитектуре и строительстве “Зеленый проект-2010”.
