A group project that tackled reactive and interactive architecture. Experimental in nature, the project was meant to push the boundaries of Architecture and it’s applications. Development of an interactive canopy, the design of which was extrapolated from human movement and tested using emerging technologies.

The project involved experimentation with virtual reality as a design medium, virtual reality as a presentation tool/proof of concept, and electro-active polymers as dynamic materials that would change based on interactivity and weather changes.
