Concept


Through conducting research that attempted to define intimacy in terms of its components, we became aware of the significance edge conditions. Our concept deals with enhancing intimacy throughout the year by the manipulation of thresholds or border conditions.
These changes in border conditions appeal to the natural human consciousness of centrality and verticality. Through nesting spaces and experimenting with various densities and dimensions of both thresholds and edge conditions, we can evaluate our understanding of how the edges of space can encourage intimacy among users.

Changing of intimate atmosphere during the different seasons

Catalogue of Plant Life


Catalogue of fifty different plants from the site. Only the eight plants in the red squares are going to keep their leaves during the winter. This makes the border situation of the site and its atmosphere very different through the seasons.
