Starmoon is an object of the future, which should save the ocean world. It controls the movement of stars in the sky (they control tides) and returns the stray planets to their places.
It is a city block that consists of many houses. People have to communicate with each other and find a balance.
Darkness is an important element in the construction. Therefore, the author imagines an object which extracts darkness.
Having received darkness and light, the author builds houses from these materials.
The author creates the house of the future, which consists of four architectural modules. They can disintegrate from each other and come together when needed.
Could an architectural breakdown become one of the options for architectural transformation?

Description: Nautilus is the underwater city of the future. It works like a large bathyscaphe from the story by Jules Verne. Its task is to explore the ocean and find Atlantis, where, according to legend, all the secrets are hidden. At the bottom of the ocean, Nautilus assembles the houses from crystals, shells, sand, and seashells. Fish bring algae and whales redirect underwater currents to build the architecture. Nautilus takes care of the sea creatures and lets them into the town. Capsule buildings work like vacuum cleaners. They suck up the trash and recycle it into construction materials. Thus, the city of the future becomes a big home to all living beings.
