E_COLONY

Developer: LAB_X

Description: 2050- climates are shifting, water is scarce, the desert is advancing. It's a fight! Cities have adapted - accelerated evolution - water is precious, so are plants. Cities enter into a symbiosis, covered with scales that retain water, trap moisture, and multiply the plants that purify.

And the facades become a climatic ecosystem, which recycles and collects water, and the buildings themselves change shape, to better retain moisture, and they multiply in populations, like lichens, like plants, like forests, to better retain humidity and freshness. And like that the cities mutate, and the humans will not be eaten by the wolf, they will survive together, making fresh islets!

Objective: Create a habitat for extreme environment.
