ARTIFICIAL CLOUDS FOR 2014 WINTER OLYMPICS / ASADOV STUDIO / SOCHI, RUSSIA


Designed by Asadov Architecture Studio for the Aerostatic Architecture Competition, the project envisions a universal system of modules capable of clustering and separating at great heights.The design has various functions.

The Clouds consist of aluminium skeletons fitted by a membrane fabric, divided into a number of compartments. Rigid connections between “clouds” stabilize their vertical movement and give stability to the whole structure. The structures are reachable by means of platform-boats, available on each module. The project can also have a cooling effect, as sets of rain funnels accumulate moisture in the lower parts of the modules. Solar elements are integrated within the top layer of the cover, developing necessary electric energy for life support and illumination. Besides these hybrid types of “clouds”, the ensemble also contains separate “air turbine modules”.
