Introduction

Probably every architect, interior architect or any other space designer have been thought of how design will look in the future and how we will design in a new rapidly changing world. The world where internet, technology, climate change are inevitably transforming our everyday reality. Such constantly developing environment challenges architect to embrace radical design strategies and invoke innovative yet critical way of thinking. Thinking that goes beyond conventional architect’s profession and practice, or in other worlds - beyond the space. With such altering reality deals and my work which is represented in this portfolio book titled “BEYOND THE SPACE�. My five selected academic projects reveals five design stories that were developed by researching, experimenting and always thinking more than just a space. Interior and architectural spaces in my projects gain an extra unexpected dimension that goes beyond its physicality. Here a tiny courtyard transforms into infinite forest, sand particles create haptic interior patterns, an entire house becomes passing time calculator through sunlight projections, domestic interiors turn into pure water laboratories and cities become interior cities.

1. Infinite Garden House Collective Urban Villa

Status: Location: Tutor: Type: Year:

Academic Project Shibuya district, Tokyo, Japan. Moriko Kira Individual Project 2013

Abstract Speculating on a future of the nature in a highly urbanized city of Tokyo ‘Infinite Garden House’ suggests a new way of natural environment reproduction. Architect and architectural thinker Hiroshi Hara discussing contemporary urban strategies in Japan argues that in the future “planning will demand a new interpretation of nature” and that without such “intermediate domains” future urban life will not be possible. Referring to H. Hara’s thoughts, my design project proposes a new interpretation of nature through reality manipulation and visualizes transforming human relationship with nature in a 21st century. Employing mise en abyme 1 design technique that uses several interfacing mirrors to generate an infinite reality, the tiny garden inside my created domestic environment of collective urban villa is transformed into endless forest experience. Among five villa’s apartments emerged semi-virtual garden becomes a shared experience of being in nature. It unifies all house inhabitants creating a sense of togetherness. Further, as an important Japanese cultural tradition, it acts as an infinite natural meditation space to resile from busy city life. 1. Mise en Abyme - The term is originally from the French and means, “placing into infinity” or “placing into the abyss”. In Western art “mise en abyme” is a formal technique in which an image contains a smaller copy of itself, the sequence appearing to recur infinitely.

2. Haptic Patterns Concept Store Status: Location: Tutor: Type: Year:

Academic Project Rotterdam, The Netherlands Gabriella Fiorentini Individual Project 2014

Abstract In a thriving world of retail, crafting a unique and meaningful customer experience is a key to success. Taking that in consideration, my concept store design titled ‘Haptic Patterns’ aims to push the boundaries of customer journey design and offers a unique type of shopper experience based on a concept of phenomenology1 and “design of the senses”2. This sensory retail experience tells a romantic story of a handmade bag - an elegant feminine commodity which is characterized by minimal geometric pattern shape. Creating distinctive retail experience these original patterns of a bag are idealized and paralled with the ones formed by a sand while it slowly falls into structural glass containers. A set of such containers with falling sand that visualize this natural phenomena orchestrate the shop with a granular space performance. Slowly falling microscopic grains create an appealing visual and aural experience awakening human sensors and activating positive customer’s emotions. They evoke moments of delight, joy and happiness - the same haptic feelings and pleasure that sense a woman wearing these unique pattern bags. 1. Phenomenology - as defined by C. Cantwell, phenomenology in architecture aims to explore ephemeral, emotional and poetic qualities of a space. 2. Design of the senses - is a design strategy/ methodology explained by Kenya Hara (2011) that employs a philosophy and knowledge of human sensory receptors for a space and product design.

A range of “sand catchers” create an intimate granular landscape. Oscillating particles of sand forms fragile patterns and tells the story that hides beyond the space. Through this performance interior gains a double meaning - the one that hides in a physical space and another that is generated in a person’s psyche. 23

The physical concept store’s environment is extendent to the virtual one utilising technology: In the entrance and exit area there is integrated a large ‘I-Phone’ look screen that performs a virtual shop-keeper function. It offers a complete show brand products and encourages a customer to buy a product in a shop or order it with delivery at home.

Once containers are full with sand, this granular matter inside is transformed into firm sand sculptures employing sand cementation process. Sand cementation is a biological process where loose sand is transformed into a solid matter. That is done through the injection of Bacillus Pasteuri bacteria and other additives in this material. Solidified sand sculptures stands as a haptic memory of the shop experience.

3. Summer Solstice House Interior Archeology Status: Location: Tutor: Type: Year:

Academic Project Prienai, Lithuania Yukiko Nezu Individual Project 2014

Abstract ‘Summer Solstice House’ is an architectural ‘poem’ dedicated to our perception of time and space through an universal phenomena of light. In the age of technology we often refer to time through mechanical watches, computer screens, incandescent light bulbs and other humankind innovations that evoke our distorted sense of moments we live. However, I have to note that in the past our ancestors were more conscious of time and the world. Their legacy of monumental constructions framing sun movements testify they well-established awareness of passing time by observing celestial bodies. Taking these ancient constructions as a design starting point and referring to Louis Kahn’s theory of “Silence and Light”, Gaston Bachelard’s theory of “Phenomenology in Architecture”, further applying ‘research by making’ design methodology, this project aims to bring these forgotten astrological moments in to domestic interior of a modern man. These moments are created through twelve circular holes that are embossed into building’s walls and that are aligned to celestial sun path during summer solstice. These holes allow sunlight projections into interior space creating ephemeral light performances that makes man more conscious of the living world and brings him into an elevated state of being. In this house time is translated into a spacial experience. This house doesn’t exist - it lives. Lives together with the occupant of a space, corresponding to universal time, thus corresponding to man’s biological time, his cycles of a day, or in one word - his life.

Light and things belong together. When the sun strikes a thing, the light becomes aware of itself, and the thing gains its presence. Thus day and night, earth and sky come into being, and we comprehend the meaning of the first words, “Let there be light.” Henry Plummer From: “Poetics of Light”, 1987

To me, when I see a plan I just see the plan as though it were a symphony, the realm of spaces in the construction and light. I sort of care less, you see, for the moment whether it works or not. Just so I know that the principles are respected which somehow are eternal about the plan. LOUIS KAHN from: Extracts from a lecture of “Silence and Light�,1969

4. Casas del aguas Instant Strategies of domestic water generation for the urban poor Status: Location: Tutors: Type: Year:

MA Graduation Project Mexico City, Mexico Alex Suárez, Füsun Türetken. Individual Project 2015 - 2016

Abstract Addressing global water crisis and “slow violence”1 my design project titled “Casas del Aguas” aims to deal with such catastrophic water case in Mexico City and its district Iztapalapa. Iztapalapa is one of the poorest sections of the city which inhabitants suffers from domestic water scarcity that was caused by a range of a man-made environmental crimes. Here domestic water is always uncertain: sometimes it is unavailable and sometimes it is highly polluted with unknown substances. Neglected human beings are forced to search for fresh water outside the city or to buy bottled water. However, many poor families in the area cannot afford such expenses. As a response to this “slow violence” I intend to raise the awareness of such invisible environmental crimes and pay the attention to the urban poor that silently suffer an environmental noxiousness. “Casas del Aguas” is an inexpensive domestic interventions toolkit, an anti-disaster manual, a survival scheme hypothetically developed with local people in order to help them to obtain a clean domestic water from rainwater harvesting. Besides that a range of domestic tools - an immediate handmade devices - help to sustain collected water. They purify it, store it, save it and recycle. As a result, these proposed interventions that are built by locals create a new domestic water realm. The realm that deliberately alters human relationship with this precious natural resource and suggests a new domestic interior model of the future in the age of a disaster.

1. Slow violence - a concept that stands for today’s world environmental crises, environmental change and ignorance of the ones who suffers its tragic consequences. This philosophy was developed in 2011 by humanities and environmentalism professor Rob Nixon and is intensively expalined in his book “Slow Violence and the Environmentalism of the Poor”.

5. Utopian City of Trascendence Making Interior Cities Status: Location: Tutor: Type: Year:

Academic Project Rotterdam, The Netherlands Aynav Ziv Individual Project 2014

Abstract

A Map of the World that does not include UTOPIA is not worth even glancing at. Levis Mumford

“Utopian City of Transcendence” is an experimental model of an ideal interior city of the future established in a former industrial shipyard building’s interior space. Inspired by a nearby existing ‘Heijplaat’ neighborhood, that was designed according utopian garden city ideas and by examination of a true meaning of a term ‘UTOPIA’ this project reimagines and simulates the ideal future of human habitation. Term ‘UTOPIA’ according Sir Thomas More (1516) means ‘an imagined place or state of things in which everything is perfect’. Referring to this, to a Wally Pfister’s directed film “Transcendence” (2014) and to a contemporary technological theory of ‘singularity’1, I can claim that today’s ‘perfect’ human condition is the one that is totally controlled by artificial intelligence. Therefore such realm I can call a perfect ‘Utopia’ of nowadays that humkind strives for. My created Utopian City represents this paradise - a perfect human condition where robots and machines does everything for a man. They grow and make food, control climate, transportation and time. They assist man in every step of whatever he does. At the same time one can notice that artificial intelligence in a city slowly transcends and surpass human life. Superintelligent machines, slowly exchanging humanity, can triger one silently pause. 1. Technological Singularity - is the hypothesis that the invention of artificial super-intelligence will abruptly trigger runaway technological growth. Such intelligence explosion will signal the end of the human era, as the new superintelligence would continue to upgrade itself and would advance technologically at an incomprehensible rate.
