Skin: glass window panes applied to a steel structure define a
protecting skin. This is a durable ecological shell, an intelligent
system analogue to the natural skin, able to ventilate and transpire.
On the inside of this transparent protecting dome it’s possible to
build a flexible, light weight structure of wood and canvas.
Space: the inside spaces are enclosed and private, as opposed to the
spaces facing the outside. A rotating sunscreen act as a fig leaf and
can change the privacy and illumination per room. The spaces facing the
outside are more dependent on the weather conditions, therefore in
wintertime it’s possible to retreat to the inside spaces and use the
outer rooms as a buffer for climate control.
Flexibility: here flexibility is derived by offering a wide variety of
different spaces without a fixed function. Nomadic forms of habitation
can be discovered by the residents and changed over time.
