Erupting Stability: Tornado Proof Suburb By Ted Givens

How can Jaws drive individuals out of the ocean screaming when a house blown via the sky brings back nostalgic recollections? There is an urgent have to shift from an outmoded logic, ignorant of the forces of nature, to a point where the unabashed rush for revenue and development may be balanced in opposition to the fundamental goal of offering shelter. We sought a manner of turning the seemingly harmful acts of nature into artistic blooms.

This kind of structure learns from technological innovation and amps up its incorporation into the home, custom tailoring present mechanisms in new ways. The revised conception of the house finds itself someplace between storage doors, flowers, and the survival mentality of a turtle.

A collection of simple hydraulic levers are used to push the home in and out of the ground and deflect and warp the outer pores and skin in response to external stimulation. The key activators of this movement being the excessive velocity winds associated with thunderstorms and tornadoes.

A collection of photo voltaic cells on the outer pores and skin rotate and flex to attain maximum solar intensity. A translucent outer pores and skin consisting of clear insulation sandwiched between two layers of Kevlar offers the weather barrier and lets diffuse light into the structure.

A water tight seal locks the roof of the collapsed home making the structure water and wind proof. This solution doesn't anticipate the rate of the water, and more importantly the grinding energy of the debris contained within the water. Neighborhoods will become interwoven and connected collectively via sensor networks that interpret weather data. The tornadoes and storms can burn and blow with all their fury whereas the suburb safely sleeps.
