  1. kINetic eMOTION: Beyond the object

    … machine" that adopts the notion of "performative architecture". Programmed as a Film School, kinetic architecture allows the building to be indeterminate whereby the flexibility to reconfigure itself enables a vast potential of spatial narratives. With the use of cinematic techniques the building …

  2. Kinetic index : an exploration of site and program in flux

    … they encounter. This thesis explores the ways kinetic architecture mediates between the site and programs in flux. Programmatic flux requires the architecture to adapt through overlapping and transformable space while responding to the forces on the site through an understanding of their paths …

    … and design. Despite growing interest in SMAs for kinetic structures and adaptive facades, there is currently a fragmented understanding of how to leverage their unique properties in the built environment. Designers lack consolidated resources that map the capacities and limitations of different …
