Architectural Competition Journal

In the Summer of 2009, Arctic Perspective Initiative (API) sponsored a competition for a mobile research facility for use in the Arctic regions. API envisioned a facility that would “...allow tactical media workers, local stakeholders, scientists, hunters, and community members to create, live and work collaboratively on the land, physically separated from the settlements yet connected through new communication technologies and sensor networks... a model for sustainable, low-impact, yet high-tech saturated creation and research in polar conditions.”
