Lunar Working Base

The lunar base is divided into 5 main group in the studio. The focus of our group is to design the working space on moon.

Site Selection

Zones for the working base is divided into parts on the crater. In the zone on left has growth in phase 1 and 2. Where as the zone on right has the growth in phase .

Form Development

The form is developed from a simple circle. The reason take circle shape is so all the working department can be allocated in 360 angle. The central part is defined for the vertical circulation and the storage area for all the floors. Further more as shown in the below diagram the 3 sides are extended so the each working space gets more private and personal space and not mix with the horizontal circulation.

Module Typology

Modular pattern is choosed for the growth of the base. In total there are 3 different type of modules which are repeated. In pahse 1 there are only 2 module types. In phase 2 there are 3 module types and in total also there are 3 blocks. Where as in phase 3 there are 3 modules used and in total there are 7 module blocks.

Growth Pattern – Logic

The growth pattern logic choosed for the base is to make sure there is easy circulation access, in case of emergency there are possible egress for evacuation.

Phase 1 – Overview

Phase 1 has module A and B containing the Maintenance, Biology lab and Data center as programs.

Phase 2 – Overview

Phase 2 has module A,B and C containing the Maintenance, Biology lab, Geology lab, Visitor center, Movie Studio and Data center as programs.

Phase 3 – Overview

Phase 3 has module A,B,C and their clones containing the Maintenance, Biology lab, Geology lab, Visitor center, Movie Studio and Data center as programs.
