The social space in the literature ‘Designing in technosocial landscapes” focuses on the juxtaposition between art and technnology (exemplified by the artist Janet Cardiff) on the depiction of how place can be demonstrated through experience. This idea influenced me to initiate the study of the aspects of place and how space changes wher affected by people and routine.
The underground corridors leading to the lecture theatres acts as a socializing space in between classes. Through analysis of the existing architectural features, my addition to this space exemplifies the human pathways made by the flowing, weaving movement made by monitoring how people react to sharp, perpendicular edges.
As the inhabitants becomes more used to these portals, the sense of absurd might dissolve and be replaced by small moments of realization and pleasure or the sort of irritation that would incite conscious adjustments according to different perspectives. A clear transition between workspace and leisure space is achieved.
Moreover, I have incorporated the use of mesh material and wires too infiltrate the corridor area with my previous threshold design of a spiderweb by the continuation of a linear, structural framework.

collaboration work
After long discussions with tutors
my group and i formulated a design that integrates the design studio with the outdoor courtyard space by intwining the tree to be used as a gateway between life and death.
Life is expressed by the flourishing green leaves that is scripted so that as it floats closer to the Architecture building, the free spirit of the outside courtyard dies and with it the leaves turn brown and die away.
Web-experimentation with the disappearing and reappearing script
the web tunnel appears when an avatar gets near to it and then becomes transparent as they go further away from it.
Web Idea
By the continuation of my membranal network structure, the idea for my design shaped into a spiderweb. This encompasses the fabrication and organisation of interrelating lines first observed in the 3D scan of the leaves.
