The long term project of the startup is the generation of durable construction projects that work with biology and technology, with the goal of developing a durable for-profit business. Using general durability as a goal and innovation as a tool, the entreprise works to balance the nine durability dimensions (Leadership Quality, Physical Health Quality, Psychological Health Quality, Environmental Quality, Economical Quality, Socio-Cultural Quality, Technical Quality, Process Quality, and Site Quality).
The origin of the term Garden-Generator came from long meditation on the subjects of sustainable engineering, local ecosystems generation, and restoration, flow psychology, potential "psychology of the third millennium", religions, and philosophies. The term Garden can be encountered in most traditions, especially when they describe paradise or the best possible state of the present or the future, so a decision has been made to use the term. By using individualy "brainstorming" as a tool to find the best possible name for the project, the term Generator was highly attractive, since it reflects value and power. The term Garden-Generator could refer generaly to any tool or service that helps people to plan and design a garden or a hospitable habitat, such as software that helps you to create a garden, or a professional garden designer who helps you plan and install a garden etc.
For the startup, a Garden-Generator is a consciously engineered space, in form of a house and its surroundings adequate for the durable existence of as many living beings as possible, a human family, a set of useful flora (maximum indigenous), and a set of useful fauna (maximum indigenous). That generates food, catches rainwater, treats the maximum of its own waste, and generates the maximum of its power needs. In order to achieve the best possible outcome, the startup is looking into the possibilities of the integration of some artificial intelligence for system management. The systems that are considered include solar, wind, oil, and gas as very useful technologies and substances for energy generation depending on the geographic locations on the planet.
Download the internship report of Othmane Wagdi at the University of Applied Sciences Mainz, Germany. The intership project was about the creation of an innovative startup that is a precedent for the university. The report is rich in information about the founder, background and motivation behind the startup creation. It is also very rich in information about sustainability in international civil engineering and sustainability in general.
