"En un ai: habitar, aparèixer i desaparèixer en les ciutats", by Eva Beser

This project examines the concept of the city and bridges the current urban context with the utopian city imagined by Dutch artist Constant in his work New Babylon (1956-1974).

The proposal is based on an existing system of space that is modular and can be assembled and taken apart again. The aim is to produce a flexible, self-sufficient cabin and adapt it to the urban environment to offer an alternative to modern-day nomadism: a flexible living space that permits the user to be in transit, adapting to different circumstances within the contemporary city with its sedentary architecture.

The title is a reference to “instantaneity”, and to how this space appears and disappears rapidly, eschewing the permanence of the city. It also refers to the ease with which the interiors of the space can be rearranged.
