Wiki Tribe Park

• Wiki Tribe is a theme park with area of 20 acres that located in Mogan River Valley. Wiki Tribe was planned and designed by architects, however, unlike traditional cultural tourism projects, part of the public buildings in Wiki Tribe was designed and built by children and parents from city and countryside. The project includes Urban Thinkers Campus of UN-habitat, Sino-French WoCC Architectural Festival, Parki City and Wiki House. And
• Community Co-building

We have invited 12 families from Little Fish Community to co-build two Wiki House through group learning and children-parent’s cooperation. The whole process took five hours. It was abided by New Urban Agenda and Sustainable Development Goals from HABITAT III, and inspired to search advanced cases of high quality human settlements globally.

• “Kids Can Build”: A new form of architectural pedagogy involving kids

From “City in Sky” in 2012, AaL and Wiki World were dedicated to discover the possibility of involving children into building and construction education. After a series of successful international experiments, they co-found World Children Campaign together with the top architecture college and institution in France. They believe architecture is a great media of problem based learning. The innovative construction courses can cultivate children’s creativity, and form an initial sense of urban, space and environment in the heart of children. In this Sino-French WoCC Architectural Festival, over 100 children and parents co-built a flash building tribe, covering 160㎡, 5m height, in 6 hours. The tribe was entirely built with Parki, an independent research and development children architecture product. It was a playground for children, as well as a public space for studies and parties.

• Architecture of Naturism

Wiki Tribe has introduced a modular wooden system researched and developed by Wiki World. Because of this high precision construction method, not only those Parki-based buildings that can be built by families but also Wiki Houses consume zero concrete and can blend into the nature seamlessly.

Open and Collaborative Architecture

As an innovative result of collaboration of Wiki World, SUNAC and many other international institutions, Wiki Tribe probes into a new relationship between architects and so-called users in an architectural way, and seeks a possibility to use architect as a media of space cooperation in the internet and new consumerism era. In a more comprehensive context of Rural Revitalization and Cultural Tourism Development, we have seen more and more projects are touching people and local community. As a new working mode advocated by 7BU in HABITAT III, Open Urbanism has been adopted by many architects to impart the public with a new link of architecture and space through open source design and collaboration. Thus, architecture has been empowered more possibilities.
