Where
What
We want to create 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. The modular development of forms, capable to adapt to the built environment without affecting the stability of the existing infrastructure, provides easy and low‐cost solutions for extending and rejuvenating architectural space.
How
Parasitic architecture allows the creation of flexible structures ,demountable and recyclable, that offer answers to the problem of the need of temporary accommodations. Additionally, modular systems potentially provide forms with great complexity out of simplicity. This project investigates the evolution of self‐sustained parasitic structures that evolve by creating aggregation forms well adapted to their hosts.
