Transcending the Physical

graduate Thesis 2023
Hanna Park + Jenny Cook
Are digital renders/designs fake?
What if digital renders with a new identity come in real life to incorporate interaction with broader audiences?
The challenge in architecture is an instant and obvious medium and cultural perception that is deeply rooted in this. Therefore, challenging materiality and color between the digital and physical world can be a source for exploring architectural identity.

Social media craves the pop-up urbanism that transforms architecture from an ordinary experiential space to a space where experience gets magnified. Shareable digital image-making has radically shaken this slow evolution of a place's relationship to its image.
Physical installations with synthetic materiality have to offer something tempting, visually speaking, preferably with that selfie-friendly moment for many "photo-takers".

Difference between physical material and digital material. How they can be manipulated or merged together to find new characteristics?

/ Site
The project will be a combination of elevated pavilion with pop-up installations with painted scapes that transcends between digital and physical characteristics.
Enhance and stimulate the experience of visitors in all senses, encourage social interactions, and bring character and identity to a space
