Fog collection in buildings as a method to meet the future water needs

Richter, Adam LU (2020) AAHM01 20201
Department of Architecture and Built Environment
Abstract
This research project examines how, by studying principles and systems that occur naturally among plants and animals, lessons can be learned that can be applied in the design of buildings to make them more sustainable.

Based on the water shortage prevailing in the Spanish region of Valencia, I explore different ways of working with technical systems that extract water from air as architectural elements in the specific context of the national park that surrounds Mt Montgó.
