DUH!N is an urban organism that enters into symbiosis with the city to transform our reality into a new environment accessible to all.
It transcends technical solutions, avoiding unattractive infrastructure and segregated detours to offer an alternative reality where accessibility benefits everyone in a positive experience.
While complying with regulatory codes, it transcends them. Its fully practicable tactile surface is safe and engaging. It supports vegetation and its low-rise seating addresses the youngest to the elderly, fostering a space where everyone feels valued and therefore welcomed.
Its natural shape is inspired by nature’s adaptive intelligence of partnering organisms like lichens.
Its simple construction can be implemented by unskilled workers or communities.
As a full-scale intervention, DUH!N embodies people-centered INTELLI-GENS. We, as mutagens induce this first transformation in the body of the city that will proliferate until a new balance is reached in the built environment.
