HYDRO-NET SF2108 City of the Future - Grand Prize, A Design & Engineering Challenge sponsored by History Channel, IBM & Infiniti. San Francisco CA, 2008 Hydro-Net was designed for the History Channel’s invited design competition City of the Future -- a one week design challenge posed to eight architects to re-envision their city 100 years in the future. This is the Grand Prize winner for the San Francisco portion of the competition (other cities explored that year were Atlanta and Washington DC).
This Hydro-Net project speculates that cities of the future will need to be evermore interconnected yet also more self-reliant. In order to accommodate a projected doubling of population by 2108 while resisting further outward sprawl, the Bay Area and San Francisco together will require a new infrastructural network that is able to collect and distribute water, power, fuel, goods, and accommodate the transport of residents and tourists alike. Sponsors: The History Channel, IBM, Infiniti.
