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.

outpost

2050* Outpost:

The goal towards achieving a large scale

colony of a million people on Mars is

still a far reach. In preparation for future

developments on Mars, an outpost would

be required as a sample test for community

living and inhabitation while further

exploration is being carried out.

While In light of this, we can assume that the

first generation of Martians populating this

outpost would be professions that contribute

to the exploration and development of Mars:

Astronauts

Astronomers

Architects

Biologists

Botanists

Designers

Doctors

Engineers

Geologists

Scientists

Psychologists

* Estimated timeframe, subject

to resources put into accelerating

developments on Mars and other

administative decisions
