The Alluvial Sponge Comb by Anderson Anderson Architecture. Made of flexible, superabsorbent material, the multifinger sponge captures water to become a temporary flood barrier. This design is meant to harmonize with the natural ebb and flow of water, rather than resist it. PROJECT DETAILS |

WHAT NEXT organized by the Tulane School of Architecture and Dean Reed Kroloff, presents several initiatives for rebuilding New Orleans. Jazz Center and Heritage Park, a major downtown development designed by Morphosis, are displayed in addition to a range of replacement housing proposals by well-known practitioners. Also included are the entries from six finalists in the first stage of a competition sponsored by the organization Global Green USA and Brad Pitt, which propose sustainable housing for New Orleans. Material from the book New Orleans: Strategies for a City in Soft Land is presented as well. This book, by Joan Busquets in collaboration with Felipe Correa, was produced by joint studios at Harvard University Graduate School of Design and Tulane University’s School of Architecture. |
