Design Proposal

Interface output

Two options for the interface are possible:

1.) The user becomes the 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.

KINETIC 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.
