Solution

AEROBIA performs the same way as nature does.  In a complex web of relations, every output of a process becomes a useful input for another one.  Through the use of natural cycles and basic technologies, renewable energies are implemented and resources are saved.  It's a human-centered station that fosters human well-being (physically and mentally throughout excercise, oxygen generation  and responsible practices), while providing necessary services for vehicles and daily life.  Sustainability and accessibility are the main guidelines.
