series "Aidu pyramids"

In parallel to a commission to design the world’s tallest pyramid, in the series “Aidu Pyramids”, the architects create a seemingly disconnected universe of potential speculations on different contexts that would be triggered by this archetypical megastructure. By simply tzzdepositing mining waste in natural piles in a planned way, an urban park landscape reshapes the empty large-scale land-formations caused by the Aidu quarry (active between 1972 and 2012). The storyboard of the world’s tallest pyramid is woven together with global political, societal and environmental realities, to provoke discussion on the potential fate of Eastern European widespread industrial landscapes in relation to a wider geopolitical context already at play in the worlds biggest metropolitan areas.
