Mars Science City – Space Architecture Design Studio 2020
The Mars Science City design studio topic fits into the long-term vision to build a human settlement on Mars. The students were first asked to look far into the future and imagine what a city on Mars would be like. How do they think people would live in about 100 years on another planet? What would they take with them from Earth, and what would they want to see totally different? The student teams have developed a conceptual vision of this city. In parallel they researched and worked on the environmental, technical and social challenges of getting to and being on Mars. Each team was asked to identify three major challenges and / or characteristics, based on their vision. What would be needed to start the settlement in order to become the city they have imagined? This was the most challenging part for the student’s teams, and became the starting point for the individual architectural solutions of the near-term project on Mars.

habitation
functionality + comfort
keeping it minimal, functional, yet comfortable
was one of the main goals of the design. the
isometric connectivity of the expansion concept
can also be seen within the habitat.
sanitary fittings open up towards the private
rooms. the kitchen is oriented towards a
larger area for eating, socializing and medical
treatment. research area is allocated on top of
the private rooms to make use of the verticality.
ADVENTUS
connetion to small
green unit
this way loud and quiet, social and private space
are separated. the area between the private
rooms can be used as storage, recreational
and training space. connection to the small
greenhouse in this area would enhance the
recreational environment.
semi-social

quiet
loud
radiation protection
the exterior layer of the enclosing membrane is
equiped with chambers that will be filled with
regolith. a 3d sinthered regolith shell will be
printed over the habitat at a later stage.
