EXTERIOR VIEWS
The structure is formed by combining 6 hexagons. There are spaces with different functions in each hexagon. The transition between the hexagons is provided by internal stairs.
INTERIOR VIEWS
Each of the interiors inside the hexagons has been designed according to seperate needs. While designing these, the maximum level of technology in the village was also considered. These rooms have items for simple needs. For example, sleeping, eating, bathing or toileting. A life in the smallest possible space.
FRAME CONSTRUCTION
Wood was used during the construction phase. The main frame of the building is composed of hexagonal woods.
VILLAGE LAYOUT
All the building owners in the village have a job. These jobs generally exist for basic needs. More related professions (eg fafrming and cooking) are closer to each other. The connections were created by roads and stairs.
