🌎Earth

Design Description-EARTH

On the marvelous disappearance of healthy natural habitat in real world, people and creatures may flea into metaverse oasis, in where they put spirit in their first-born space——the earth. Here, I see earth as the primitive cradle of lives. The earth prototype building celebrate the binary symbiosis between the Earth and all kinds of lives. In metaverse, where gravity runaway, earth can shape anything and grow anywhere in the space. They can be clustered rock, can be flowing grassland, and miniature mountain etc. By exploring, playing, sliding and jumping in and out this space, it resonate with player’s inner connection with our Earth.

Architect Say:

The "earth" theme reminds me of a survey I did in school.

The result shows that New York City consumes up to 34 million cubic meters of water in one day, equivalent to the volume of nine Empire State Buildings. Most of this water comes from the Catskill and Delaware water sheds.

Similar to New York, all major cities are grabbing resources from underdeveloped areas, such as natural gas, electricity, food, etc., and earth is the initial element from which these resources are generated.

But the reality is that, while enjoying the resources brought by these lands, citizens in modern cities live farther and farther away from the natural environment that can truly touch the earth, and even make actions that damage the environment.

These realities made me want to create a space in the metaverse that would accommodate both human activity and the presence of the land.

The curve element in the design comes from the name of our DAO——dolphin, which represents the concept of harmony. At the same time, the earth will exist in both indoor and outdoor spaces of the building, and the form of earth and human activities complement each other. I hope users can find the connection between human beings and nature here.
