By changing the distance between fixed points on a surface a curvature can be made. When the location of the fixed points can be controlled, there is control over the types of curvature. | By changing the distance between fixed points on a surface a curvature can be made.

"SPACEBOOK"
Spacebook: (where) everybody can see the activities on the site, the users can join activities that are or will be taking place, create their new activities and (physically) link them with other activities.
A new activity hive is born.
USER INTERFACE
Concept
Spacebook - Interface, part of Facebook.

Scenario of user demands.
Spatial result of scenario.

Output
Two options for the interface are possible:
1.) The user becomes an architect for his own individual space. The interface within the website or the cellphone app includes reduced transformation-functions for the structure, which is divided in stripes so that the user can easily understand the transformation-process.
2.) The user sets the position, the volume (amount of people) and the room type (open, covered, open but covered) so that, the system can create a generic space for different activities.
GEOMETRICAL ALGORITHM
KINETIC STRUCTURE
Structure Concept
A grid of points drive a network of inflatable "bubbles" linked together by a network of valves.
The bubbles hold the roof & floor system.
One of the point-bubble inflates. The local bubbles deflate.
Roof has desired height. Roof locks into place. Bubbles equalize and support the elastic floor.
Possible section of created "site". Various open / closed spaces for activities.
Axonometric result.
Iteration 1.
Iteration 2.
Several elastic connected panels, which offer straight areas f. e. seating,...
Spatial room-quality.

Inflatables
By changing the air pressure inside the inflatable units different curvatures of the structure can be obtained.
Pulley System
By changing the distance between fixed points on a surface a curvature can be made. When the location of the fixed points can be controlled, there is control over the types of curvature.
