What: parasitic architecture
Parasitic proliferation
We will instigate a parasitic architecture. The growth process of the parasite could be inspired by the fungal colonies and is based on the rules of the diffusion‐limited aggregation extended to support force analysis and maintain structural stability.
Parasitic = having the nature or habits of a parasite or leech; living off another.
Parasitic architecture = an adaptable, transient and exploitive form of architecture that forces relationships with host buildings in order to complete themselves"
"In general terms the parasite has to take up a position within the body, that is, it inserts itself into the spaces, the organs, that the host body provides. As such the grid of the body, its natural contours, boundaries and edges will not be recognized by the parasite. The parasite has to survive within the body and the condition of that survival would be its refusal to recognize lines that mark out pre-existing edges and boundaries, and in refusing specific edge conditions the parasite constructs its own edge conditions, and thus creates new boundaries."
