Entry Description

The project uses parasitic structures to ask: how external things could possibly change and control the space, or, in reverse, question humans’ autonomy in the built environment.


Can humans fully control a space? If not, what will it look like?


The project developed a series of parasites driven by the weather installed in a drawing room, altering the working patterns and design process of the user. They change the configuration and condition of the space and create a dynamic and interactive environment where users might be confronted with unexpected and potentially disruptive changes.
