Emergency Operations Center

COMPETITION THEME
Emergencies strike suddenly and without warning. They level cities to the ground and tear down buildings as though they were made of sand. In almost no time at all everything is destroyed and all that remains is the realisation that you have to get up and start all over again from scratch.
In recent years the occurrence of deluges and flooding have increased dramatically.
