Planning concept - Jakarta, Indonesia

Date: February 2020, 2d year at BUas

Client: Breda University of Applied science

Reason: Annual flooding in Jakarta

Project status: na

Plan


Visualization for a retention basin concept for the upstream area of the Ciliwung river. The basins will be used for peak flow volumes and will function as high-end residential basins. The revenue of the high-end residential housing will be used to support a transition in the urban areas of Jakarta's greater metropolitan area towards catching and storing rainwater. Guided by top-down legislation on rainwater catchment responsibility and flood risk reaction. 







For this project, a visualization of a google street view was created to show the possible outcome of one of the high-end residential basins. The setting for this visual is sunset. The residential basins are different in appearance when different water levels appear. The main river will not be diverted.
