HASSELL + MVRDV's Proposal to Improve the Bay Area's Resilience in the Event of a Disaster
Following recent natural disasters including the Northern California wildfires, the HASSELL + team have been inspired to reimagine the San Francisco Bay Area as a vibrant community hub, equipped to provide temporary facilities in an emergency. As part of the competition Resilient by Design, the ten teams were asked to provide solutions for the waterfront through site-specific conceptual design and collaborative research projects.

The HASSELL + team?s proposal integrates a network structure of ?connectors? and ?collectors? to improve the waterfront?s physical and social resilience. The recharged streets, creeks and enhanced ferry network are the ?connectors? that will become new slow and safe movement corridors to the points of collection, including adaptive open spaces that will socially recharge the area as a place for everyday gathering and civic celebration that can also provide the vital space needed for disaster assembly.
