Inti Pacha
Inti Pacha is a speculative design project that explores how humanity might adapt to environmental collapse by reimagining its relationship with nature. Through research and worldbuilding, the project envisions a future society living within giant, climate-adapted trees that serve as homes, sources of energy, and life-support systems.
Combining storytelling, branding, and prototyping, Inti Pacha investigates how our ancestors knowledge, collective care, and sustainable technologies could shape new ways of living. The final outcome includes a community manifesto, a branded future society, and tangible artifacts that brings this vision of a tree-living society to life.
Research Question: What if in 800 years from now trees became central to our infrastructure, creating communities that thrive sustainably and in harmony with nature?

As part of this exhibition we had to create "takeaways" for the audience. Based on the world-building I create with Inti Pacha I decided to have an "in case of emergency" survival seed kit. which included, the hand stamped seeds (carrots, beets and arugula), instructions and a sticker.
It's the year 2825, and the Earth has undergone immense changes, rising temperatures, severe drought, and overall environmental breakdown has made most of the planet hostile to humans.
As traditional forms of civilization failed, humanity was forced to seek alternative ways to live.
As most of the planet is no longer safe, people have migrated by necessity to forests of massive trees evolved to survive the new conditions. Population has decreased greatly, making communities more intentional and deeply interconnected, both with each other and their environment.
The forests are the only remaining hubs of biodiversity. The trees provide shelter, energy generation, clean water and air purification the natural world is no longer seen as something to exploit but as equal partners in survival.
Inti Pacha is organized around relying on one another and working together to keep their world alive.
what do you want the future to look like?
