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.

ADVENTUS
compactable wall
the walls are structurally conceived
as a scissors system and are
transported in compacted state
inside the core. they covered with a
soft translucent fabric, that is also
acoustical insulating. this should
give a more comfortable feeling
and also diffusely spread the light
within the private room
the materials used should be made up of hydrogen
rich composites to protect against radiation.
depending on the function of each layer, different
densities and weaves should be considered. all
materials used should withstand the inflation
pressure at all times.
multi layered membrane
- smooth flexible self-healing layer to
mitigate dust accumulation
- strong dense layer for micrometeorite
impact absorbtion
- strong flexible layer for impact
flattening
- regolith bags for radiation protection
and impact mitigation
- insulation layer
- interior finish
- reinforcing stripes act like trusses
connecting the layers, determining
the shape of the inflation and
providing the dividing elements
between the regolith bags
