What is Extended Architecture? The production of well designed spaces where Architects create spaces with BIM forms, enabling connectivity through immersive space making and safe inhabiter environments that are responsible to the users, community, and the environment.
There are two major ways for architects to design for Extended Architecture. Physical-Extended Architecture, would be an extension of the real world built forms that would enable those built environments to foster virtual environments from within. In conjunction to the physical space the user is occupying, this would most often use AR, or MR technologies to engage the physical space with a digital twin that allows for better impassivity.
While Digital-Extended Architecture, would be used to immerse the user in the Virtual and immersive world from within a digital twin of an architectural form without them needing to physically be present. VR AR or MR would all be able to help to create a all encapsulating experience into this form of space making.
Who is Extending Architecture and why? As the integration of technology into our lives advances. Opportunities for connection from within urban spaces to support a wider range of cultural and social integration. This can be viewed as a form of Tactical Urbanism, as this gives communities or individuals the power to change there spaces and activate a location beyond its physical limitations. Architects have a responsibility to design solutions that help to protect the health, safety, and welfare of the community and the people that use or interact with their designed spaces.
1. Reusing existing digital documentation and BIM modeling so XR tech can engage with the user. 2. Individuals can adapt the digital content to engage the physical world. 3. Using information gathered from the users allows for better design development. 4. Haptic’s to facilitate a more immersive experience. 5. This application enhances the physical world with digital elements of the users choosing.
