Nowadays, human mobility has been increase radically due to the technology and the ambition of travelling, we are all experiencing a contemporary world in the way of shifting life style and commutation while environmental and cultural different.I am interested in the “mobile” movement between humanity, social and architectural spaces.
I may be more “mobile” than others as I am a student who studies aboard and I will travel from Hong Kong to UK at least once a year and may travel around Europe while I am in UK. I always dream of a movable platform which will travel all the way from UK to HK backward and forward and I could enjoy the life with my family and school days just like most of the day’s girls or local school girls do. Or somehow like the Japanese animation “Luputa”- A flowing city, away from the pollution and wars, it is a peaceful wonderland which up on the sky or something like “Howl’s Moving Castle”- A castle with legs and will walk around the country side as a school which will bring students to filed trip, somewhere they can not learn from books.

Two years ago I went to the Mobile Art Exhibition the Chanel Contemporary Art Container by Zaha Hadid. The exhibition is based on personal experience between art and spaces. It started in Hong Kong then it will circulate through Tokyo, New York, London, and Moscow and suppose to end in Pairs but unfortunately the exhibition has to be suspended in New York November due to the economic meltdown.

After the visit in March I was amazed of the concept about moveable building and how the smooth organic form of pavilion cooperate with the dream like installation and bring the visitors to a surreal, fiction like environment form that time I start to have the awareness and interest on mobile. Form my understanding mobile architecture is a structure which can be portable, adoptable, flexible and changeable through out our everyday life. Also it would be a concept of temporary way of sharing information, stimulate and regenerate the existing environment. It is not necessary as big as skyscraper but it would be an important element or component in urban. According to Kathrin Boham from Public Work she mentioned “mobile” is a urban toy, roaming public space as a structure itself could engaging with its users it is a multifunc-tional; space and it is a governing bodies.

Nowadays, everything is moving so fast just like fashion, everyone chasing the new and gets rid of the old. People want something fresh contemporary to stimulate and bring the excitement into our life. Therefore so many people going aboard and travel around. Also there are lots of disposable designs and stores appear in these few years which are not sustainable at all even though everybody is talking about ecology. For example, one pounds shop, 99p shops, Primark which selling all sort of everyday life product and clothing with a lower price in the market. Their products are cheap but where does stuffs come from? Normally they are coming from where has a cheaper labor country so that there is a hidden carbon foot print and shipping miles hidden into those products. Also people hardly ever treasure those disposable goods which will not or not allow them to have a longer life cycle and that are not a solution for the economical and environmental. As a human, normal people, lower income bound, they may not have that much chooses as they can only afford 99p living style and they do not think environmental friendly and sustainable products are for them. Also people like to follow fashion trend, the banding and celebrity effect sometime people just brain washed by the celebrity and blindly follow other people and forgot the real vale of the “thing”.
P.6
In the book “Ecology: How Environmental Trends Are Reshaping the Global Economy” (1999) by author Lester R.Brown. He mention the concept of transforming the “disposal” economic of resources state should change to 3R (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) economy and suggest that we should follow the rule of natural, how the nature world due with the biological wastes and how the waste can become food for other organisms, biological and mutual support, growth and development system. This system is not new to human as we used to life with nature from million and million of years but as technology develop we seem to ignore the nature and created our high tech nature and build up our own system. That cause of nature break down as now we see as the result of climate change.
How could we use our power to change the environment? Could we design some plug-in (just like those software) into our surrounding and keep people having interest and attract to that object/place? And how we could create a sustainable environment from that?
P.7
Mobile architecture is not a trend of today. We could trace back to the time of people lived a mobile life, the Nomads. In the old days, people could become nomads to escape from struggle of war, servitude and the cruel world. Generally after political independence these warring tribes united under the leadership of the primary the form of government. Especially in the time of 60’s around the Cold War period there is a group of six architects who were working on their “negative liberty”, their desire of a free city- Archigram- a group of experimental British architects: Warren Chalk, Peter Cook, Dennis Crompton, David Greene, Ron Herron and Michael Webb. They are the major group who concerned about mobility and malleability. They make people to wonder what architecture, spaces and technol-ogy is, as their concepts are in the vanguard of technology, fantastic and unrealistically. Also because of the limitation of the technology their work are still on papers and could not put in particle no matter how much they push their bold ideas of mobility. Their concept is a huge innovation of how people could live in a contemporary environment in the future, also their visionary hand drawing images still influences the architects of today. For the sustainable development it would be relate to building order which is similar to plug- in city. So that the old structure can be contributes to creating and formatting the new. That arrangement should have a high interchangeability so that we can easily to improve the old condition. It considers the continuous structural framework and bases on the same modular unit to meet the requirements of the complex programmed. The mobile concept is not limited to inspirited architecture also to animation a Japanese artiest Hayao Miyazaki did a serious of animation based on that topic (Laputa and Howl’s Moving Castle) and using his imagination to visualize the mobile city and house.

Fig. 10, Plug-in City by Peter Cook - A lattice shaped substructure and its work like Lego. It is a combination of changeable apartment units, which can be connected to many possibilities of others. This proposal will keep the city changing at a high speed. Also it could reflect the changes in that area as the expansion and constriction can tell us what is happening there.

But are we ready for the mobile world? Will we willing to live in mobile dwelling/ home (N-55)? Living in something totally mobile, something like caravan?
In the book (2004) “Home Territories Media Mobility and Identity” The author David Morley said that if something becomes mobile it may lose its identity. Also when a nation loses its soul and spirit of the seeking better life, is that mean this nation has reached its end? After reading this I started to wonder if a building is of a large scale of structure, people will need to spend a fortune investing in its development. So can everybody afford a mobile house or mobile luxury lifestyle? Not everyone can afford to buy a car so will the answer be no? On the other hand could it solve the financial problem as we would not need to worry about what is the price of the land as we are not permanently living in that area.
Fig. 13, This is a micro dwelling, they are portable units.
P.14
Also let imagine if we do not even own “home” in this vast city and become an urban homeless in this modern city and where is our happiness? Some people say they can not afford to buy a house so that they are renting. But renting an apartment will encounter some of the impermanent and not forever, we will not be sure where will we live in the next month, and never guarantee that ourselves and our children can be easily settle in the new environment, also it will encounter to security issues.But to me as an oversea student renting is a must, but for some people who live in their own country they may think renting instead of buying a house is an insult to human evolutionary. In the million years ago the world was finally able to give up nomadic life style and began to settle down in one place and primitive agriculture, civilization was able to increase and improves the quality of living over the period of time. If renting a nation can solve the housing problem, then the human had no need to settle down, may be wandering in places can actually give us a trend of modern people how to seek the freshness and stimulation life style in urban.
For most of the people the word “home” is something stable, a place for comfit and warm, also it is a quick escape from work and people. So mobile home may not be necessary. If “mobile” for another purpose it may be more propitious. We could see over the last five years, there is a rise of non profit and other architectural organizations are promoting and having competition which relate to disaster emergency shelter, refugee housing and health. Also they are working on different scale of no going live projects in various parts of the world with architect and all sorts of people from different design network.
P.13
In disaster area, there is the need of shelter to create a sense of temporary “home” and safety for refugee and the structure should be easy to assemble and can be build with efficiency. Those victims that are physically and mentally suffering in life, liberty, property, urgent distress problems. It may due to natural disasters or accidents, a shelter could protect the value of legal interests and an urgent escape from the imminent dangers. As the area may experience earthquake as well as safety reason and easy access so the shelter should be in one level and away from collapse crisis area. Normally it appears as tent or inflatable structures as they can be flat packed and use minimal spaces to transport them to the disaster area.
Fig. 14, The folding shelter structure allow the user to create the space they need.
P.14
Fig. 15, The use of the shipping container we could use it as a tool to ship the emergency goods and medical materials to the disaster area and it would provide a safe shelter environment for the refugee.
P.15
After disaster happen the area will be immediately facing urgent situation of health issue as there are many of injuries.
“What are Haiti’s most pressing health challenges? Immediately following the quake, trauma injuries were the most urgent medical concern, but the focus now is on follow-up of patients who have had surgery as well as basic primary healthcare services, including services for maternal-child health and chronic diseases including diabetes, heart disease, HIV, and tuberculosis, among others.”(Pan-American Health Organization, 19 Feb 2010)http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12497291/posts/default
P.16
Fig. 16, A rendering show how would the clinic look like.
For the pre set clinic system is would be work best for shipping container and van. Also it could be a free falling module which could be a recycle of some sort of container and carriages. For example we could use the London eyes carriages structure as a container, as it is a round oval shape so it has less air resistance when it drop from the plan and easy to rotate by human power. Also it is a transparent shelter the patient’s family could see the procedure and know what is happening inside.
Fig. 16
P.17
How often will we facing disasters? We could tell from the climate change we could face all sort of national disasters in the future. As the sea level rising and weather become so extreme in the recent years. And those kinds of design seem like sit and wait for the disasters to me.
Now it is late to change our habits but it is never too late to do so as we will never know what will happen in the future. As I am interested in architecture I concrete about how we could build a better and sustainable world for future. As I know in building the demolition waste is less then construction waste. Also there are so many historical building across Europe and they may not be necessary are grade one building but the increase number of high rise building proposal and that would be destroy the character of the local area as the existing building will be demolish. Also it may affect the social, environmental and economic impact.
P.18
When you walk around in central of London you will recognize there are quite many derelict buildings and spaces. Why people see them like invisible and some people tread them as urban rubbish and want to knock them down? Why we could just leave them as what they look like and using those spaces and using the existing structure and upgrading, recycle and give a new life to them? Just give some programs and functions into them to regenerate and improve those building and area. Also we could place some plug-in to increase the energy efficiency, reduce the carbon footprint and turn the old building become a green building which would be worst then a new building. If the building lifecycle is going to be endue to the aging and wear out. For example, some of the building which build in mid 19th century their structure and some people do ignore the building regulation and removed the main walls and columns or have some illegal structures on the building which lead to serious problem cause of collapse and shorten the building life. End up to be demolished by the government for the safety reason.
In a sustainable world we should make the most out of the space and we could apply the 3R theory- Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, also the durability, flexibility and the efficiency.

70% Urban Space is residential and planing authorities positively encourage residential use over other activities.
25% private equity increased since 2006
Around 20% urban core covered by evapotranspiring surface
There are around 277 (32.18 hectares) open space but only 72% (23.31 hectares) is public accessible and 62% in use in weekdays daytime.

While I was walking in London, there are different types of space which are vacant and disused space and I can see there are 4 main types: - Derelict space – vacant but do not have any function, not for public use normally surrounded by wooden boards.- No-programmed space – owned by company or others mostly public space.- In between space – semi indoor and outdoor space or designer created space without recognize it does not have any functions and where the unsuccessful regeneration policies.

We could reinvent those spaces by mobile structure could find value by turning dead space into lively space. We could create a multipurpose space or 24 hours use and bring in excitement and create a safer environment with programs running along side. Why we let our urban decay?

Recently I walked pass a redundant petrol sta-tion on 466-480 Edgware Road, Westminster and I found an article in www.ukpia.com and www.news.bbc.co.uk which talked about the redundant petrol station. There are 95% of the sites have gone for non-fuel use and the petrol station is increasingly being redundant. Since 2002, petrol stations have been shutting at an average rate of 600 a year. The result is that the number of filling stations in the UK has fallen from about 18,000 in 1992 to 9271 in 2007. But UK government is not willing to clear up the site as the loss of petrol stations and they could be reopen in the future.
P.24
Petrol station is a convenient place for driver to top up the fuel as well as shopping, dining, rest, vehicle maintenance and repair to provide con-sumers with series and facilitation services when they need. But as human we have been over ex-ploitation of natural and in Guardian newspaper, it mentioned the global oil production capacity will be disappear in 2012 and will be running within 40years. The report point out that the shortage will cause the economy, political and strategic impact, also for the vulnerable countries will be as risk (for example, India).
So what sort of energy will be use in the future to power vehicles? What will be the alternative fuel for vehicles?
Fig. 23
Fig. 24
P.25
Also as a petrol station is a Brownfield what can we do with the site being clean completely? There is a lot of potential for it to be redeveloped as the location as they are located in the zone between industrial, residential and commercial sectors with heavy traffic. Some of the sites have been redeveloped as hand car wash, restaurant, dry cleaning, first hand, second hand motors sales and hire station, car park and so on. Also the unclarified Brownfield site should stay with the driving culture which is easy come easy go there is a dangerous of flammable and toxic substances. According from London Brownfield site review there are total of 2,068 sites with the area of 3,745 hectares around 2.5% of the entire area of Greater London.

Mayor of London Boris Johnson is promoting electric vehicles for future. The use of electric vehicles could be reducing the air and noise pollution there for it would be improve the air quality and reduce carbon emission.
“Mayor announced there will be two million electric vehicles throughout the UK by 2020. And by 2015, there will be 22,500 charge points at workplaces, plus 500 on streets and 2,000 in public car parks across London.” www.tfl.gov.uk
There is a scheme called Cycle Superhighway are being introduced to encourage people to commute by bicycle between outer and central London to make it safer and easier to do so. Cycling is a sustainable alternative transport system as well as a good way to exercise, and often provides reduced the cost and journey times when it compared with other modes. Cycle Superhighways will span London and improve the conditions for cyclists. Once completed, they will run through around 25 London boroughs.

P.27
From that I am choosing the redundant petrol station 466-480 Edgware Road as a sample for a residential with commercial area. The site is in along Edgware road near Paddington Green, which is a major street passes through the west of central London in the City of Westminster.
The area has a large percentage of mixed use of shops and residential usage, office towards station. The living standard of the area is low to middle class. The map has shown the facilities around in Edgware Road. There are lots of shisha bars, restaurants, take away, Marylebone market, community center, health care toward Marylebone station.

From my interview with the local people in Edgware Road I found out that area are experiencing several problems. First, there are lack of security, lack of CCTV service and lead to tackle crime and others anti-social behavior; Second, there are street drinkers, homeless around the station area as there are subways and pubs around.Third, there are some area use for drugs, urination and sexual activity.Froth, youth congregating on streets, Fifth, there is noise pollution for residents specially to short term lets residents, as the area is locate in a busy road and traffic normally start at 7am.
P.30
Due to the promotion of the Cycle Super Highway and one of the routs will come around from Crickle-wood to Marble Arch so there is a potential of the existing site become a bike rental platform. That will be using the existing site providing a bike rental service so that everyone could be able to cycle back home and to work.
Fig. 25
P.31
The rental system would be similar as the rental trolley system in supermarket, using a refundable one pounds as a deposit to unlock the bike. The wheels on the bike will use the magnetic field to produce electricity form kinetic energy and store in the bike. Once the bike back to the packing rack the energy which produced by the user will be transfer to the station. The energy could be generating the street lighting at night, for the local usage. When the first rack is full there is a hydroponic system to move the rack upward in order to increase the bike parking space (see Fig 26). Also the energy could generate a cafe or residential community space for residents to use and they could in regard to help the facilities running.

Early this year there is an electric generate vehicle is being used in Heathrow airport’s terminal five. There is the Personal Rapid Transport (PRT) system built in 2009 which does not need any driver to be there, it is a totally automatic with no carbon emission vehicle and higher security as there are only four seats. This system would help to reduce the level of pollution in Heathrow. (information http://www.eta.co.uk/2009/08/14/heath-
row’s-driverless-pods-may-overtake-car)
As airport has a high level of noise pollution some scientists are investigate a sonic generate system as a physical statement said energy is only transform one form from each other and never being distorted or disappear. The Sonea device made of poly carbonate elements which will absorb the noise and converts 30 watts of power per decibel of sound it intercepts. That could be energy recycle as this device will receive the noise produced by the airplanes and converts the noise energy to clean power to generate the PRT or others usage.
Fig. 27
P.34
“An average plane produces about 140dB of sound when taking off, which calculates to about 240KW of power and coupled with about 500 airplane takes offs each day, which is normal for a busy airport the device can generate approximately 120MW of green power” (http://www.ecofriend.org/entry/eco-gadgets-sonea-en-ergy-absorbing-system-captures-decibels-for-watts/)

In the future the fuel resource ran there are limited vehicle will allow or can be generate by oil. Therefore the petrol will be increasingly being redundant the solution of is using the alterative way to generate or create energy to power our everyday need.
Along the Old Kent road there are few companies using the redundant petrol station as car hire and trade center. Normally the proposals for redundant petrol station are last for five years and renew the contract. There is a need to review the purpose of the site and the need of the local area.
Old Kent road is one of the busiest streets in London, most of the traffic from south to London borough of Sounthwark. The area was an operational gasworks site and still contains number of storage tanks. Nowadays there are lots of warehouses like supermarket, storage spaces, car and coach park and so on. Also there are primary schools, church and some residential buildings, mostly ex-council houses around and housing are generally in poor condition.
P.36
As there is a heave traffic road the air quality is quite polluted as well as noise pollution the area is lack of green spaces and any historical building or park or market.
There is an urgent need of green spaces to decarbonizes the area and improve the quality of life in that area. Also there is a demand of water resource needed in the future due to the over float of population growth and the rapidity of development for communities’ usage. Lots of engineers and scientists are developing some technology to prevent the water leakage and maintenance the quality of water.
“Sundrop uses a process it called Solar Reduction of Carbon Dioxide, or Solarec, to break down the greenhouse gas CO2 into its constituent parts. In a nutshell, Solarec uses mirrors to focus sunlight, just as solar thermal processes do.”http://green.venturebeat.com/2008/03/12/the-next-solar-boom-may-prove-to-be-solar-hydrogen/
P.37
P.38
The Sundrop technology is using solar thermal to reduce the CO2 by capturing the CO2 and break its molecules down in the environment and the spited Oxygen will combine with Hydrogen in air to from H2O. That allow us to recycle the carbon dioxide to from power and the carbon monoxide would then making other liquid fuel. Water could be harvesting the plants and the solar is transformed to electricity to power the vehicle. The plants could use as decarbonizes the urban and products better quality of air.
To sum up, the sustainable in future could use our exciting to generate the new using a mobile plug in system. As mobile has a high flexibility to suite the human desire of living in a contemporary world and want the maximum of stimulation and excitement from the surroundings.
There are lots of brown field in the greater London and the increase number of petrol station is continually being shut down and being redundant. As the drive in culture which is easy come easy go is a high contemporary and would be match with nowadays human psychology.
As the current plan of future London, here are 3 proposals for how we could harvest energy in the future which would help us to keep and have a better environment.
Firstly, the bike rental platform in Edgware Road where near the cycle super highway. Not everyone could afford to have a bike the solution could be a rental system. The system could also help to generate energy with the human recourse by the magnetic field. Secondly, the use of Sonea device, it could generate the electricity in a noisy environment such as airport and the road with a high volume of traffic. Turn the wasted energy to transform to a better one.
Last but not least, due to the water leakage problem in the future, the Sundrop technology could solve the problem in Old Kent road where leak of green and have heavy air pollution.
Those are the alterative way of recycling energy and energy harvesting technologies.
