One Community is facilitating eco-cooperatives making a difference through collaborative action. Our all-volunteer team is dedicated to creating a sustainable blueprint that transcends borders. By fostering global collaboration, we’re not just envisioning change; we’re actively making it happen. The heart of our mission lies in “The Highest Good of All“, driving us to pioneer and create tools, tutorials, and DIY instructions for sustainable approaches to food, energy, housing, education, for-profit and non-profit economic design, social architecture, fulfilled living, global stewardship practices, and more. Through open sourcing and free-sharing all of these, our model is designed as a catalyst for eco-cooperatives, forming a global network of teacher/demonstration hubs working towards a world that works for everyone.

ONE COMMUNITY WEEKLY UPDATE DETAILS

 

HIGHEST GOOD HOUSING PROGRESS

Highest Good housing, cob construction, earthbag construction, straw bale construction, earthship construction, subterranean construction, sustainable homes, eco-homesOne Community is facilitating eco-cooperatives making a difference through Highest Good housing that is artistic and beautiful, more affordable, more space efficient, lasts longer, DIY buildable, and constructed with healthy and sustainable materials:

This week, Abhishek Kadian (Architect) worked on the research for the Earthbag Village (Pod 1) 4 Dome Structure Roof, searching for relevant data on the One Community website related to the project. Abhishek made some changes to the Revit file based on the feedback received in the last work submission and modified the Rhino Earthbag laying work for the structure. See an idea of his work in the collage below.

DUPLICABLE CITY CENTER PROGRESS

duplicable city center, open source city hub, laundry, dining, swimming pool, hot tub, kitchen, library, game roomOne Community is creating self-replicating patterns of positive change through a Duplicable and Sustainable City Center that is LEED Platinum certified/Sustainable, can feed 200 people at a time, provide laundry for over 300 people, is beautiful, spacious, and saves resources, money, and space:

This week, Amiti Singh (Architectural Designer) reviewed the 3D renders she generated for Room 7 in the Duplicable City Center, initially centered around a Neo-futuristic aesthetic. The renders integrated art deco-style furniture and futuristic lighting, with strategic adjustments to the color palette. Amiti evaluated the furniture and material palettes, applying a cost analysis approach to guide decision-making. Subsequently, she used this analysis to create an initial mood board for the room, presented through slides. The collage below shows her work for the week.

Clarice Gaw Gonzalo (Architect) responded to feedback from the previous week by revising existing renders of the Duplicable City Center. In particular, she focused on transforming the kitchen area into a buffet-style space, enhancing the overall ambiance. She worked on updating pool textures and adjusting pool opacity to unveil stairs beneath. Additionally, Clarice ensured clothing consistency across individuals in certain scenes, aligning their attire with a specific season. She continued her work on another room, populating it with a diverse range of people to enhance realism and inclusivity. You can see her renderings in the images below.

Justin Varghese (Mechanical Engineer) worked on creating constraints and manual contacts (bonded, separation, etc.) for the structural finite element analysis (FEA) of the City Center Hub Connector. The focus was on ensuring the proper degree of freedom for each solid/component. These defined parameters will be used for the upcoming FEA simulation of the Hub Connector, assisting in the selection of the final hub connector design. The Duplicable City Center is a foundation of how we’ll demonstrate eco-cooperatives making a difference. The collage below shows his work on hub connectors for the week.
