Plan

Connections

Media Lab and CCC

The Interactive Garden has a strong connection with Media Lab by it’s users - children. It can be used in various ways to play, climb and interact with it. The structure is constantly changing, providing different ways of using the site every time. People from CCC represent a different kind of occupant, corporate workers neverthless the garden structure still meets his needs. It neighbours the warehouse from the north-west, providing a kind of yard, where they can enjoy the site, while having lunch or a break from the workshops.

Ribbon Ondina

Being a flexible system, the structural units are not only capable of forming a cloud but also forming lines.

Along the riverside, especially the lower level of the ribbon, the area that is more close to the water and designed to be a platform for people to stay, is missing protection of any kind, while the impact of climate is more severe due to lack of buffer area in the open area. So the interactive Garden is expanding towards the riverside, distributing along the ribbon and provide shelters for people walking, or staying beside the river.

The shelter is connected to the realtime data of NDSM, reacting to different conditions of climate to provide different protections according to the comfort level of human body.

Distributing along the river, these connected organic shelters outline the boder of NDSM, especially at night when lighting from Ribbon, giving the NDSM a unique image one can recongnize even from the other side of the river.

Modular Customisation

Modular Customisation and Interactive garden share almost the same area so they connect physically. Modular Customisation uses 1,8 m edge as a basic component, from which different shapes and volumes can be made. It can grow and change shape, accordingly to its current use, but the length of the edge remains the same. In the areas of the NDSM, where both projects overlap, the Interactive Garden can expand, or shrink, to correspond with the shape and volume of Modular Customisation. The pattern is being changed form Voronoi to more mathematical one, so that they could connect in certain points and merge to each other, making a bigger, more complex structure.

Project Modular Customisation is in constant change and growth, which makes it impossible to make a fixed, temporary connection between it and the Interactive Garden. Therefore they can react in multiple ways:

- Both projects are placed apart from each other, in different areas of NDSM - they work independently

- Modular Customisation grows into the area occupied by the Interactive Garden - Interactive garden senses the movement and reacts accordingly to it, connecting to the joints

- When the space is shared Interactive Garden acts like an extension to Modular Customisations pavillions, both physically and functually
