SENSORY KINEMATICS - SMART HOUSE project | M.Arch Thesis Project [spring 2017] | Distinguished Research Award location | East Price Hill, Cincinnati, OH goal | As our involvement with the technological world grows rapidly and personalized digital mediums are pushing past hand held
devices onto our immediate surroundings, the platform for designing these heightened sensorial spaces awaits an architectural application. The balance must find the architectural solution. Gestural communication and interaction with the built environment will dictate this architectural manifestation. In doing so, designers can implement these emerging technologies into our immediate surroundings, leaving the user with an ethereal connection to his or her spatial ambient.

TECHNOLOGY + SENSORS
EXPERIMENTATION
FOLDING ITERATIONS
The idea behind the folding techniques was to be able to move in all three axes and an option that would also become a flat surface.
The idea behind the folding techniques was to be able to create an expanding and contracting mass in the x, y, and z direction.
This origami folding pattern was chosen to be the most successful due to its ability to expand and contract in the x, y, and z axes while also giving the ability to folding into a flat surface.

STRUCTURE COMPONENTS
KINETIC WALL By using an origami pattern, custom gears, dc motors, sensors, and arduino uno boards, the composition of these objects resulted in a kinetic wall installation. The kinetic wall is activated upon motion detected by the PIR (infrared motion sensor). The dc stepper motor is triggered once the PIR sensor detects an environmental stimulus. The custom gear pushes the wall out and reals it back in creating a breathing affect.
SCENARIO I: WORKING FROM HOME
SPECULATION
Person A has an opportunity to work from home. He gets the entire house to himself and decides to open up the house into three main dome shapes indicating the work area, bathroom / kitchen, and the bedrooms. Person A is able to see the entirety of his house from one end of the house overlooking Cincinnati’s beautiful topographic landscape.

THERMOCEPTION
During this play date three kids require a shape changing, fortlike nooks that they can massage into place how they want. The nooks the kids want are more personal spaces and separated from the rest of the house. In this scenario the bedrooms were unfolded and the furniture was moved to the basement of the house using a lift. The clothes that they are wearing allows them to make gestures to allow for the shape changes they desire. Smart phones then are required for a manual override that the owners of the house have ultimate control of the entirety of the moving house.
SENSORY TAXONOMY
SCENARIO III: FAMILY GATHERING During family gatherings like these, the house should be able to keep a constant temperature of 72F. This would call for the possiility of changes in roof height due to the air conditions in the house. The ceiling will have to rise to allow for more air circulation. Because the house is changing do to the needs of the occupants the shape of the house and room arrangements.

AFTER SANDY : THE NEW RED HOOK | Urban Design + Charrette Studio [spring 2017] collaborators |Erin Kline location | East Price Hill, Cincinnati, OH goal | Sea levels are rising and real estate is only increasing in value. Looking at a project
cemetery in Brooklyn for the development of the new Red Hook for its displaced citizens. Research was done on three major factors, walkability in the new town, transportation for the new residents, and water retention systems to help alleviate with future flooding. software |rhino, sketchup, grasshoper, vray, illustrator, photoshop

STREETSCAPE Looking at three different walkable street sizes, the packed streets of New York City, the hilly streets of San Francisco, and the preferred size walkable streets of Portland, Oregon. Portaland’s street size is a relative 200’ x 200’ where are pedestrians are the focus of the city’s streetscape.

designed to hold the ashes in individual earns and niches as well as a catacomb system below ground. as a way to develop a vertical burial system as opposed to a horizontal cemetery. software |rhino, sketchup, vray, illustrator, photoshop collaborators |Erin Kline
