f@b.CPL – f@b.SmartCity

Faire: Lisbon

Maker: Casa Pia de Lisboa, IP

Home: Lisboa/Lisboa/Belém, Portugal

O f@b.SmartCity nasceu do projeto f@b.TGV no Ano Europeu do Transporte Ferroviário. Inicialmente assentava na construção de um comboio e respetivas infraestruturas adjacentes, permitindo aos alunos o desenvolvimento de competências na área do desenho, eletrónica, robótica, telecomunicações, sensibilizando-os ainda para temas como o ambiente e a sustentabilidade. Com estes últimos temas, surgiu a ideia de criar uma cidade inteligente e ao mesmo tempo sustentável do ponto de vista energético e dos demais recursos. Para a exposição transportamos apenas uma fração de dimensão reduzida do f@b.SmartCity, dada a impossibilidade de movimentar o projeto patente nas instalações do f@b.CPL.

ParKit: Pedaling Parks to People

Faire: Pioneer Valley

Maker: Smith College Landscape Studies ParKit Team

Home: Massachusetts, United States

The ParKit, a park-making kit, makes small temporary parks mobile. The main objective is to enact short-term, low-stakes simulations of potential permanent park installations, servicing the wants and needs of multiple publics. Designed to be ridden around a city and quickly assembled, a bike pulls a trailer holding the necessary components for constructing a “parklet,” enabling previously unused spaces to become more inviting. Mobile in nature, our vision is to reach out to communities who are less likely to have the time, resources or political leverage to engage in community design.

Cogumelos e o seu uso como biomateriais

Faire: Lisbon

Maker: Joao Anes

O consumo de plásticos a nível mundial tem atingido valores elevadíssimos, e o seu impacto no ecossistema tem causado mudanças radicais em diversos locais. Este projeto tem por base a criação de biomateriais feitos à base de cogumelo, com caracteristicas únicas e que são uma execelente alternativa aos plásticos, uma vez que no seu fim de vida estes são compostaveis. O seu processo de produção é muito idêntico ao ciclo de produção do cogumelo, sendo por isso um processo de baixo impacto a nível ambiental e que utiliza como materiais resíduos das indústrias do café e arroz.
