Daniels Faculty Thesis Booklet - Winter 2021

Page 49

Khaled Megahed Life Kit This thesis explores the possibility of a kit of parts for a flexible building. The kit is intended to facilitate the notion of open “self-build” structures in overlooked urban sites. Conceived as a system of hard and soft components, the framework enables the directed assembly and disassembly of elements. Metal scaffolding (hard structure) supports a lighter interior wood frame (soft structure) capable of changing over time. Residents are engaged in the building process. They share skills and negotiate needs, which promotes a community that is active in the design and redesign of a structure. Housing here acts as a social and economic safety net, addressing the precariousness of many of the city’s inhabitants.
