Soft Alive
A moveable wall as soft as an organism interacts.
PROJECT BACKGROUND
The Actuate Studio has requested us to redefine the elements of kinetic architecture and integrate them into product design. Kinesthetic architecture is about designing spaces and objects that can be reconfigured to meet changing needs, thereby forming an array of adaptable buildings. The major goal of this design is to address the dynamic and ever-changing needs of nowadays society.
PROJECT CONCEPT
SOFT ALIVE employs soft robotics in creating an interactive wall that will become a living creature that responds to every human movement and can surprise people with its abilities. When people pass by, the wall will be activated to get closer to them. The wall, when touched by the people, will then slowly return to its original state. This wall is an excellent exhibit that enhances connection and interaction with the public.
