Living and Building Underground | ARTE.tv Documentary

[@davidka8345]

Danke Arte für die Untertitel. Es ist angenehmer, den Originalton hören zu können, ohne dass jemand auf Deutsch drüber spricht.

I have visited Serifos, the compound/home that was built is a work of art. The thoughtfulness to the surrounding landscape and the ingenuity used to effectively use nature and climate to its advantage is remarkable. Truly a masterpiece in the architectural world that deserves the awards & accolades it has received, bravo Ellada. HOWEVER, the comment from your second speaker from Helsinki is incorrect. Montreal , Quebec has the largest underground livable, tunnel, connections , shopping, metro stations with 34 km's. This is a well known and record setting status that Helsinki cannot claim as the only city in the world with a underground "masterplan" , it's 1 km, underground doesn't even come close to Montreals 34 km's, connecting through many metro stations, Museums, landmarks, shopping malls & buildings in the city centre. This was done to enable residents and visitors to travel freely regardless of the weather outside. Perhaps you should consider correcting this narrative. Otherwise a very good, artfully done presentation.

Important and really good documentary. Thank you ARTE.

What a great idea having an extensive network of service tunnels underneath Helsinki and lucky that they have a suitable geology which makes it possible at an affordable price. I had no idea that they have nuclear fallout bunkers for everyone in the city.

[@tracy419]

This is exactly what I think Elon Musk's Boring company should do. Build tunnels throughout the cities that can accommodate deliveries and waste removal underground. He could use modified electric vehicles for this purpose. People moving in individual cars like they are currently doing seems like a waste compared to taking the behind the scenes of commerce actually behind the scenes (underground).

Wie schwer war es, die Schweizer Erdhäuser nicht als "Wenn Hobbits sich an moderner Kunst orientieren würden" zu beschreiben? :) Fantastisches Konzept, eine Collab von Peter Vetsch und Weta Workshop wäre mein Traum. Helsinki ist super spannend, da würde ich gerne mehr drüber lernen

[@maungl]

Missed you two! Glad to see you and know you are well. 🙂

[@BadboyMax1986]

24:23 Heizkosten in einem Erdhaus sind halb so hoch wie bei einem herkömmlichen Haus.

[@tlatoanimachi]

No cap this is the way.

[@findingfoodfluency]

The Helsinki snippet reminds me a bit of Minneapolis, although for a different reason. Just due to the winter in the latter city, the underground car parks are heated. As for other places taking care of business below the surface, Japanese, Chinese, and Korean cities have some pretty big underground plazas heaving with foot traffic and commerce. And at the other end of the spectrum, I'm told that Coober Pedy, Australia (opal capital of that country), has a number of underground residences due to intense summer heat.

Translation issue : at 2:20 she says ''Islanders'' mis-pronounced meaning the local Greek Islanders and not Icelanders, as in people from Iceland.

[@artetvdocumentary]

Thank you for flagging this up; we have forwarded your comments to the editorial team

[@o.a-b7212]

Glad to be of help! I love your content, I have been watching since childhood from France@@artetvdocumentary keep up the good work Arte, you are appreciated as well for the good work you do!

[@alpineflauge909]

wow

[@DS91284]

Just by thumbnail alone you get a thumbs up. That is like my dream house. Except with some choice mods on top. ❤

[@gerryhouska2859]

Ours in Coober Pedy are much simple but just as effective.

This is where I am going to be very soon. The life I live

[@slotenmakerdenhaag]

Errr ... respect to the landscape? With 3 swimming pools on an Island that has no running water? Pull the other one!

[@policeman1104]

Maybe it’s saltwater. Otherwise I agree

[@Funtari01]

How do you keep the bugs, ant and spiders out? Otherwise really cool building i.e. in Greece!!!

[@Markbenwisch]

Geil!

[@Sir_Ray_LegStrong_Bongabong]

intelligent

[@erhardt1477]

Sehr schöne Ideen … ich bin nur etwas verwirrt … am Anfang wird etwas von Island erzählt, Wir sind aber in der Geschichte eigentlich in Griechenland… 🤔 Ansonsten … cool 😎

[@tanthiennguyen9308]

Wow, keine Zombies Underground Super !

[@augustusparagate3211]

Too much humidity is hazardous for health.

[@silv7984]

Finde es sehr schön,aber in die Höhe bauen(ein Klotz )kann mehr Menschen beherbergen-ausserdem kann sich nicht jeder so ein Haus leisten...ist vor allem für vermögende Menschen und nicht für die Allgemeinheit.

[@Danuxsy]

ARTE be like: here let us show u homes that 95% of you cannot afford!

[@leoaksil4085]

If everyone was like you, even the phone in your hand wouldn't be made.

[@MissElaineDumont]

@@leoaksil4085 Tesla is doing great work for Electric Cars. The only issue is that only the rich can afford them so they are completely and utterly worthless because there are still billions of cars out there which are dependent on Gasoline. Tesla could've easily had just as much impact by starting out to build cheap and affordable Electric Cars for absolutely everyone and would've achieved infinitely more progress. But building only few Luxury cars is simply more profitable especially at the start. Because in Order to find solutions to make electric cars cheaper and better at the same time, you'll have to pour in a lot of resources which simply lowers profits drastically. Yet instead they waste time on things like "autonomous driving" that barely works because Elon Musk is a fucking Idiot with no idea what he does and he only got rich because he got lucky and still solely is rich because he exploits people and their work. As a matter of fact drastically increasing Public Transport and focusing on making THAT CO2 Neutral would even be infinitely more helpful to fight climate change. But Elon doesn't do that because first of all: Public Transport ain't profitable and second of all: Elon doesn't give two shits about the Environment. Elon just cares about Elon. And people who build fucking Mansions that are supposed to be the future of housing aren't interested in that either. Because if they would be, they would much rather focus on the question of how to make that kind of housing cheap and available especially for those in need of it and not for those who blow massive amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere with their private jets yet desperately need a mansion like this to free their dirty conscience and pretend to the working people that they supposedly do something good, even if their kind is responsible for our misery in the first place. How much shit do you own that you never really needed? How much of it says "Made in China"? How much of it breaks just after the warranty runs out? Did you know that Lightbulbs could easily run for centuries? Do you know they only don't because they are build to break so that the corporations making them can sell more? The System you advocate for here isn't our Savior, friend. It's our demise ;)

[@youprobablydontlikeme3206]

[@MissElaineDumont]

@@leoaksil4085 If everyone was like you, our planet would've been uninhabitable by now. We are where we are because of Capitalism and because the Interests of the Rich take Priority over the preservation of Nature and the well being of all all humans. We would be infinitely further developed if it wasn't for Capitalism and its inherent incapability of actually utilizing human potential to the fullest.

[@haf2567]

​@@MissElaineDumontwhat an irony. What has always been for me is the fact that people who hate capitalism have never brought something better to the table. Look at the socialism, communism unleashed on this Earth.

[@gosteampunkdotcom]

You would think people in tornado country would build underground.

[@tinosenf6937]

Na prost Mahlzeit wenn eines der letzten Häuser wieder abgerissen werden muss...

[@ninajager.-.-]

Na…der nächste Weltuntergang Katastrophenfilm spielt dann in Helsinki 👍.

[@annapawww12568]

Interesting, however not a solution on a large scale with a limited space on earth - not even in not so extremely densly populated countries.

[@DMGrass-gb9kg]

Huge home, in the middle of nowhere, no farm, no community, 3 pools? Just a yuppie wet dream. These homes are so niche and obtuse. Could everyone live like this???

[@tanthiennguyen9308]

[@incomingvirus5569]

can the poor also afford it

[@SnowyMary]

The Helsinki section of this video seems relevant for all people of the city and maybe something to check out for other cities.

[@davidka8345]

They can, as it's possible to build underground for cheap. Mike Oehler showed it. some of his homes wäre just 50$ or 500$. He used a lot of salvaged materials.

[@danieldonaldson8634]

Architecture with no capacity for density is a non-solution: it's a prestige based snub to the realities that those without economic inclusion suffer from thanks to Western (and now other) overconsumption based societies.

[@skywatcher4759]

Schöne Häuser in Griechenland, doch sind diese Häuser auch tatsächlich ganz fertig gebaut? Viele neue Häuser in Griechenland werden nicht ganz fertig gebaut da die Eigentümer erst Steuern für ein neues Haus bezahlen müssen wenn das Haus ganz fertig ist! Das Geld was dann in Griechenlands Staatkasse fehlt wird ja von uns Deutschen reingebuttert. Mit dem Geld was Deutschland jährlich an Griechenland bezahlt, müsste eigentlich jeder Deutsche einmal im Jahr für 3 Wochen kostenlos Urlaub in Griechenland machen dürfen!

[@davidka8345]

Das Geld fliesst doch schon nach Deutschland zurück. Halt nicht an Hintz und Kuntz, sondern an die Gross Investoren, die in Griechenland investiert haben. Solches Denken ist aber letztlich unsinnig, denn wenn Deutschland Exportweltmeister sein will, müssen sich andere Länder dafür hoch verschulden. Schaut Deutschland also nicht, dass seine Importweltmeister liquide bleiben, bleibt es auf seinen Waren sitzen.

Sure look like Chinese cave dwellings 😂

[@dailybusiness8162]

Tell me how its possible to build a villa in the middle of nowhere, at the coast. Yes, its money. Not for the price of a villa, but for the price of that 'extra' possibility to build where is no building permission. And even compare it to traditional / historical elements like mining, which are and were a totally different topic. Not residencial nor would they be permitted in the nature like that today. I dont mind the luxury life of some (even though its a shame to call it responsible or sustainable, because it just isnt. Building takes energy, a too large house as well, and luxurious lifestyle people consume way too much, so calling out those arguments is a joke..!) BUT I do mind the inequality. 'Normal people' cant just buy a plot where its cheap and vast but beautiful and build a villa.🤌👎

[@willemhaifetz-chen1588]

Well actually this should be allowed and cheap, there is enough space, easily. It is the rules and zoning that make it expensive, not the lack of room.
