DESCRIPTION

Earthquakes pose a major threat to the megacity Istanbul. A strategy suggested by SCUS is to establish a network of earthquake-proof infrastructure buildings, underpinned by the three following principles: 'catalyser' of the enviroment, 'prevention and preparedness' (building is already being used and developed before a crisis) and 'build back better' (reconstruction oriented towards the event that occured)
