Makhno Studio designs conceptual settlement within Martian crater
Ukrainian architecture practice Makhno Studio has designed a 3D-printed settlement for Mars named Plan C that would encircle the edge of a crater.
The concept was developed during coronavirus lockdown when the studio was questioning how underground living could be comfortable if life on Earth's ground level became difficult.
Plan C is a concept for a Martian settlement that was designed by Makhno Studio
In response to this, Makhno Studio developed a proposal for an underground bunker that made headlines internationally. This  later led to Plan C, a concept for a Martian settlement.
The proposal sees a bagel-shaped settlement located on the inside of a crater, which would protect the development from Mars' environmental conditions ? including frequent sandstorms, meteor showers and solar radiation. The settlement is contained within a large ring-shaped structure that would be built within a crater
The outer walls of Plan C would be constructed using large scale 3D-printers as the planet's oxygen levels would make it impossible for humans to build without spacesuits, oxygen devices and life support machines.
Its walls would protect the interior from the harsh atmospheric and weather conditions while also housing public halls, dining, research and technical areas as well as sleeping areas.
The interiors were informed by Mars and Earth
According to Makhno Studio, the interiors were informed by both Earth and Mars, with natural and earthy hues and rock-like surfaces and fur...
