Munich‐based architect Andreas Vogler , and co‐founder of Architecture and Vision, here presents his speculative project MoonCapital, a proposal for habitation of the Moon in 2069, a century after the first lunar landing. Located in the most promising place on the planet for human settlement, the lunar south pole, MoonCapital accommodates 60 or so people in a series of modules, allowing for cellular growth.
