Dirt Collage - interpreting raw matter into a schematic diagram of a landslide prone landscape.
The earth’s dynamism is anticipated in a proposed distribution of dwellings along one of California’s countless erosion-prone slopes, Palos Verdes Peninsula —protecting threatened settlements below as a landslide mitigation mechanism. The houses tether themselves to the slopes using soil-nailing technologies, then rotate, dip and pivot in response to slope movement. As the soil slips, the house slows down the process through its distortion. A history of geophysical activity is mapped to the topography over time by the visible displacement among units within the development.
Selecting sites of intervention comes from an analysis of a landslide inventory map. Certain areas of landslide activity within Palos Verdes Peninsula are currently closed to any future development or building alterations. These areas will become sites for deployment of the new GROUNDING vessels.
