Embracing Antifragility With The Venice Archipelago Project
About this episode
Venice is undergoing stresses due to tourism and sea-level rise. But with new stresses propose the opportunity to innovate and evolve design approaches. Tye Farrow, Partner at Farrow and Partners has proposed an innovative solution to transform and evolve the city of Venice through the new stresses. In this episode we discuss:
- What are the current threats to Venice
- The concept design, and how the philosophy of antifragility is applied to the project
- How timber is incorporated into the project
If you want to learn more about designing or building with timber, I recommend you go to the WoodSolutions Website and download the Technical Design Guides:
