VOLCCUM: Avoid volcanic eruption pollutant diffuse
Architecture Concept
The Volccum design concept is inspired by natural vortices that form in the atmosphere or ocean. The concept is essentially an air and ocean filter that captures volcanic ash, pumice, and other materials, recycling them for other uses. It also has the capacity to artificially induce precipitation using teramobile laser. The resulting rainfall blocks the spread of volcanic ash. By harnessing Sicily's geothermal resources, Volccum can generate geothermal power under the ocean floor and help reduce global CO2 emissions.
A truly visionary project that challenges the status quo at all levels – aesthetically and through the combination of technology and nature to reduce air pollution. The richness of this solution is very inspiring.
WINNER STATEMENTIt is a great honor to receive the iF Design Talent Award. This gives my work more support and recognition. I am especially pleased that this important environmental issue will be given more attention, and I hope this design concept could improve the world one day.
