Inside; Mars [Architectural Thesis]

INSIDE ; MARS is a vision for a Mars outpost that is designed as a permanent working and living settlement in anticipation of increased human migration to Mars. With the accelerating growth and development with regards to space travel and Mars exploration, it is inevitable that humans will be setting foot on Mars, and a living habitat will need to be established. Yet, there is a lack of design catered to a martian habitat that integrates the social and psychological aspects of living in Mars, especially for the establishment of a colony that will be required to live on Mars for a minimum of 2 years before the next space flight back. Thus, this thesis will be a design exploration for architecture unique to Mars that would allow residents to not just survive, but thrive in correlation with the Mars environment.

Drones attached to 3d scanners

scans and analyses the cleared

site to establish base printing

point

Drones attached to claw

carriers transport and insert the

foundations into the holes dug

out by excavation rovers. These

claw carriers also act as hands

that can be remotely controlled

when required. Base printing

begins.

Drones attached to printing

nozzles begin the printing of

the outpost from bottom to top,

with the help of the claw carriers

to insert necessary structures

between printing. Filament top

up will be done at the filament

mixers.

After completion of printing,

Filament printers and

drones can be used for other

exploration work of the outpost,

or transported to other areas

for construction of additional

outposts.
