Building phases

Year 0: plain landscape

Year 1: landscape with reinforcement layer

year 2:  additional layer of mesh above areas which are supposed to be inhabited

Year 3-5: as the wind blows more and more sand accumulates on one side of dune. This new pile of sand will be stabilized too, which will make the shield around inhabitable area more porous and thus better to create shadow and microclimate.


Year 5-10: loose sand inside of dunes will be either dug out  or blown out by wind. Inside spaces will host human activities as well as gardens. Plants will be able to grow underneath less dense mesh which will provide shadow and protection against harsh winds.
