Galleria Raposa: Concept 2.0 - Transitioning to a More Stable and Secure Structure and Habitat

Writer's picture: MondayMonday



Introduction


In our ever-evolving world, addressing issues like homelessness and a Stable and Secure Structure fostering individual growth is a complex and multifaceted challenge. The Galleria Raposa project understands that while grand aspirations exist, real change often happens at the personal level. Through its construction process, it seeks to instill a sense of accomplishment and responsibility within individuals. Now, as we move into Phase Two, titled "Concept 2.0 - Transitioning to a More Stable and Secure Habitat," we embark on a journey to create a truly self-sufficient and artistic living space.


Building the Basics


At the heart of the Galleria Raposa project is the belief that one person, armed with determination and basic skills, can assemble the structure within a normal working day. This concept underscores the importance of self-sufficiency and resilience in the face of housing challenges. In the initial phase, we focused on laying the foundation of this unique habitat, ensuring that it provides the necessities for comfortable living while minimizing the impact on the environment.


Transitioning to Phase Two


With the basics in place, Galleria Raposa is now ready to transition into its second phase. This stage involves the construction of a steel frame skeleton, which will serve as the guiding structure for the entire habitat. This step is crucial, as it not only adds stability to the building but also opens the door to more creative and intricate designs in the future.


The Artistic Element


One of the most exciting aspects of the Galleria Raposa project is its incorporation of art and culture into every facet of its existence. As we move into Phase Two, we look forward to the inaugural art show scheduled for August 2024. Titled "Studies on the blockchain: A series of oil on canvas paintings that also come with an NFT," this exhibition exemplifies the fusion of technology, art, and sustainability that Galleria Raposa represents.


Towards Self-Sufficiency


A core principle of Galleria Raposa is the pursuit of self-sufficiency. To achieve this, the project has integrated various elements into its habitat, including:


1. **Starlink Internet:** Ensuring connectivity and access to information, education, and opportunities.


2. **A 3100 Generator:** Providing backup power for essential appliances and systems.


3. **Water Pump:** Ensuring a reliable water supply for daily needs.


4. **Natural Gas Tanks:** Utilizing clean energy for cooking and heating.


5. **Powerbanks:** Storing energy for emergencies and off-grid living.


6. **Solar Lights:** Harnessing solar energy for lighting needs.


7. **LED 12v Lighting:** Enhancing energy efficiency.


8. **Electric and Off-Grid Balance:** Creating a hybrid system for flexible energy use.


The Off-Grid Individualist Nature


Galleria Raposa embodies the spirit of off-grid individualism, allowing residents to live independently while being part of a vibrant community. This unique blend of self-sufficiency and artistic expression fosters a sense of ownership and responsibility that extends beyond the physical structure.


Conclusion


As Galleria Raposa enters Phase Two, it embraces the challenge of constructing a steel frame skeleton while staying true to its mission of empowering individuals and promoting self-sufficiency. The fusion of art, technology, and sustainability continues to be at the heart of this inspiring project, offering a glimpse into a future where creativity and resilience coexist harmoniously. Through Galleria Raposa, we are reminded that true change starts with the individual, one step at a time.
