Augmented Reality Technologies become popular because it gives us a chance to perceive the digital environment within the physical one. In this project, physical and virtual environments are designed simultaneously and affect each other. Museum was chosen as a program as a place for exhibiting the art and certain atmosphere for displaying new digital media. The way of interaction of a user and architectural environment is taken as a main navigation point of the design. User always needs a device for interaction with the digital environment, different device defines the type of communication, so-called ‘architectural language’. With Augmented Reality ...

Forensically we are not at a dead end is a new form of inhabitation that uses the industrial building and its production to legitimate and reclaim properties for a group of Roma minority who has been facing long- standing ownership issue, by providing spaces for living through industrial facility. And give the opportunity to inhabit and appropriate their own shelters under the idea of manufacturing.

All Watched Over aims to create a camouflaged interior as an artifact of data and images. Through the exchanged visual elements in cybernetic terrain, social relations are created while physical bodies expand onto virtual.Mediated civic interior values human expression and public experience while adapting mass media typologies to the digital age. The facade becomes a visual tool to avoid panoptic gaze and grants anonymity to the body. The interior order behind the facade rejects the ideal privileged cartesian subject through the multiplication of focuses and expanding the visual field. The theatre evolves as a new typology to blur ...

It investigates space of intimacy around bathing that reveals a diversity of cultures by exposing the bodily in space. Through the presence of the body, differences of gender and identity become more visible. To go beyond gendered categorization in space, the architecture starts to envelope and fragment with acoustic, and reflective surfaces the perception. It is an attempt to reconsider spatial hierarchies and open for a multiplicity of intimacies. It reclaims the Donaukanal as a public space to swim and opens an artificial riverbed offering the body different types to provide for degrees of intimacy. Space is experienced in ...

Fast slow world explores a new form of productive space one that can accommodate both work and leisure activities at any single moment in time , built on the remnants of the old factory, the building reorganises itself in order to open up the site to a multiplicity of users and help create a new community with an affinity towards a sympathy of making.

Aqua Percolating Domains looks at imminent threats of climate change affecting post-industrial settlement – the city of Łódź in Poland. In the reorganisation of the energy and water infrastructure it seeks opportunities for introducing public spaces, supporting the revitalizing of derelict district and improving life quality in the reorganized areas.

The work deals with the possibilities of emergent urban strategies, bottom-up systems exploring capacities and the possibilities of multiple and adaptable systems. Topological thinking connects urbanism with architecture. The project develops a forgotten artificial heap in the middle of the city and transforms it into a sustainable, structured cluster of residential, development and technological units. The successive strategy preserves the qualities of the area and develops the hidden potential of the place. The discrete architectures of the units are articulated in a coherent language based on the original factory designs.

The ambition of RCDR is to blend the civic functions of the BLVD. with those of agricultural tourism into a new architectural typology.

This new typology of the boulevard, a hybrid of architecture, transit infrastructure and landscape design, emphasizes these discipline’s common quality of circulation to derive networks of urban amenity and cultural attraction.

In doing so, this new typology aims to enrich both the quality of living and potential for architectural complexity in the suburbs.

Rancho Cucamonga Dude Ranch leverages the liminality of the suburbs to invite qualities from both cities ...

The treatment facility and fabrication of the artificial organs suggesting an alternative use of the particle accelerator is proposed in Inglewood, California. The project proposes to use the synchrotron to reinforce the scaffold during the process of bioprinting. Having the synchrotron as the base body of the project’s formalism – the other services of healthcare facilities are adjacent to its shape to maintain the technological circulation. Unlike classical hospital typology planning, Decell Lab emphasizes the use of the public spaces. The role public spaces play in usual medicinal facilities is rather excluded – waiting rooms, in most of the cases, ...

Motion Motives ist eine neue prototypische Gebäudetypologie mit integrierter Motion Capture- und 3D-Scanning-Technologie, die der Herstellung, Anpassung und dem Testen von hochindividueller Bodywear und Prothesen dient, dies sowohl vor Ort, als auch auf Anfrage. Die Architektur wurde auf der Basis von Analysen menschlicher Bewegungsmusternfür ein benutzerorientiertes Hub entworfen, das alle Aspekte der öffentlich aufstrebenden Bodywear-Industrie vereint. Durch das Platzieren des Gebäudes in einem urbanen und lebendigen Umfeld, wird die Rolle als neue gesellschaftliche Typologie verstärkt, indem sie wertvolle medizinische Daten für die Entwicklung angepasster Bodywear bereitstellt und dadurch eine stärkere Bindung zwischen Benutzer, ...

Place of distinct voices wonders how to take others’ perspectives to form mental images of how the world looks like through the eyes of others. We make sense of the world around us because of our brain’s interpretation of sensory input. Our reality is built upon the perception that allows us the full-body experience of space. This new civic is a universe on its own, providing an extensive grid of time and space. One experiences it through architecture of inversion and an infinite archive of people’s stories that enhance our empathy and emotions. It is about straightening ...

The Otherworldliness, audio-video production creates augmented spatial sceneries for an informal and dynamic production and projection of Nollywood movies in southern Spain. The proposal is a sequence of artefacts, which tense the voids in polyethylene landscape of plastic greenhouses. They create sleek greenscreen studios for movie production, tensegrity Silver Screens for projection and terraces with Silver Gardens which are planted in the traces from the construction process of the structure’s envelope. Tensegrity has dialogue with tensile greenhouses, but the message it brings it’s freedom. Made out of Thermo-Plastic Sediment, an entity between two realms: greenhouses ...

There has long been a vision to find solutions to appease the issues caused by the rapid change of society, modernization and the need for fast and efficient mobility, one was sought after in its materialization in the metabolism movement. The ideals of the movement were to provide clarifications on how to challenge a contemporary society and in doing so finding the instigators of change, to subdue the wild nature of the “new world order”, however, with time these ideas became ironically washed out by the force of the capitalist “order”.

« A C T » aims to rethink the relationship of natural and artificial realms in an « ALL INTERIOR ». As a prototypical investigation into a new residential typology for high-rise buildings, the project deals in and with extreme heat conditions by introducing an architecture of gradients. It seeks to establish a self-defined interior context which enables a new nature to nurture gradually from the inside-out, ultimately resulting in a new cultural identity based on a local climate discourse. The tower promotes a contextual shift away from current dependence, provoking a polyvalent interior-habitat where prevailing exterior conditions are not the predominant context ...

This thesis investigates, how spatial and sonic qualities of architecture can be used to produce festive interactive instruments of daily communal coping for a marginalized Roma community. Forced to live on a garbage dump in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, and facing conditions of environmental racism and institutional neglect, “inhabitable music instrument” produces a system of mechanisms and everyday strategies for a radical, loud communal festivities.

The project aims to democratize access both to the limelight and the viewing seat by treating the facades as interfaces between theaters and a wider audience and defining spaces for spectatorship or performance of different scales as an extension of the public realm.
