At SJTU the Tower of Babylon competition is part of a regular architecture course. This is why a large cohort of students is part of the competition. The whole class has been split in small groups, which all are part of the competition. SJTU will internally select the best team before phase 4. The winning team will then be part of the global competition. Therefore all deliverables from the SJTU team will only be uploaded just before their building phase.

Second hand market on the campus

Tower of Babel means a place for communication. We’d like our project to be a place for communicating and in the memory of meaningful events. In nature, there isn’t such thing as waste. Our entire project is about RECYCLING. Thousands of students graduate every year while textbooks, bicycles and other things are sold as waste on the campus. Students need a second-hand market for their exchange. The Commercial Street was a place for commodity trading. But it was closed months ago for renovation. Most students miss it a lot. We’d like to set up a place as a second-hand market in the theme rebuilding the Commercial Street. In order to make the project environmentally friendly, we plan to build it with material easily recycled. After searching the campus, we found fruit basket in different size and color and of good strength a suitable container. It can be returned to the fruit vendors or sold to the recycling stations after our project. So we decide to concentrate on the FRUIT BASKET.
