Concept

Project Aim + Objectives:

Everything around us is context, from street-scape, surrounding buildings, the environment and even the people and its ethnicity. to Clarify such blurred and vague concept; this project focuses on the change in context in terms of functionality.

What if what you are building next to is not there anymore?

What if what you are building next to changes its functionality?

What if the targeted audience changes?

What if your own and surrounding functional requirements changes?

What if the consumer or company disappears?

how can architecture cater for these changes in context? How can architecture survive?

The objective is to create a dynamic, kinetic or adaptive architectural intervention that caters for the above situations. primarily focusing on form and functionality.

The System

Tensegrity + Robotic Arms

Structural Integrity

Tensegrity Principles

Unit Components

Construction Process

Robotic arms

Architectural Qualities

Semi Open spaces

Connection: Chao Interior spaces

Rent "Me"

Conclusion

Urban:

Rent "Me" Service to cater for contextual change.

Allows more optomization in response to context change.

New architecture without Permanence.

Architecture: Temporary Customised units

Catering for large range of needs and desires.

Deconstructive architecture (within a span of 24 hours)

Ineffective components of the system: Robotic arm; as a borrowed tool for large scale manipulation.

potential of tensegrity structure becoming its own robotic arm for construction (self construction)

Reliance on high tech compoents; many complicated operations bluring the comprehension of this complex system.
