New Tower of Babel is a new Iceland embassy in Washington, DC. The site is facing a rising sea level and coastal erosion problem.

New Tower of Babel is focusing on designing a new architecture and landscape water system not only just to solve the rising sea level problem but also to rethink the relationship between embassst and site, making the embassy more open to the public and connect to the riverside and highway.

The whole water filter system collects grey water, filtering, the water from the high to the low landscape area which gets inspiration from Iceland glacial river. Finally, the black water will go into the underground floor of architecture, filtered until it can be used to the new embassy.
