How can students truly be involved in the building, not simply u sing it?
Is it possible for students to build their buildings with their hands, keeping buildings evolving and changing with time, increasing students’ sense of belonging?

The proposal is a new decentralised and systematic approach toward architectural design and fabrication. The community of students are the designers, users and stakeholders, leading towards an emergent structure that evolves and grows over time, as it can be designed, altered and dismantled by the user.
Tracing the origins and promises of current technological practices in design reconsiders the means of achieving complexity through combinatorial strategies. Provide informational rich structure and building. Rather than designing architecture elements ourselves, I proposed building the connection between digital material and Discrete physical components would be something like a pixel or a unit materialised in the form, then has a very limited set of potential connections.
This proposal set forth a new role of the architect — a systems designer who weaves together innovative technologies to empower communities and enable local craftsmanship.
The project is research into physically “digital” architecture rather than digital in the design process only.
We can do more with less

The roof is composed of prefabricated modular. The photovoltaic (PV) panels are integrated. The energy generated by the PV panels will cover the electricity use of the building.
