Designed for a site next to the existing Ras al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary in Dubai, “Hybrid Ecology” blends natural and artificial ecological environments. A boardwalk would lead visitors through sea water greenhouses and large plant-like formations that eventually integrate with the real flora nearby. Rather than generate new energy, however, this design is intended to deter exessive energy consumption, proving that small-scale techniques can be used by individuals to create their own energy needs.
