Event Description



Open_Sailing 4 minutes concept from cesar harada on Vimeo.

Synopsis: Open_Sailing is an alternative vision of life at sea: pioneering innovative architecture, navigation and sea farming techniques to create a life that’s comfortable, sustainable and safe. This interdisciplinary team are developing a floating architecture: a laboratory for techno-social experiments that evolves like a living organism. Gradually, this project is building towards a voyage across the Atlantic Ocean, from the Azores to Brazil; currents and drift will carry this nomadic structure on its way.

Cesar Harada
studied Applied Arts at Ecole Boulle; animation at Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs Paris; and industrial design at the ENSCI Les Ateliers Saint-Sabin. He is author of HARADA and Open_Architecture (RCA publication.) and taught at the Ecole
