- Invisible architecture? Distracts away from
- ABOUT CNC construction Customization is now affordable-
- Omar: Why is it important to make a tool vs create the architecture- Can this project help make the residents more sensitive to sustainability?
- Omar: Why this site- Because i have access to the site- and its a live project, SUS: This is a universal solution but the thesis is an example site
- Preface that this thesis is focusing on individual houses vs high density housing
- Not addressing housing as a whole- just this one approach
- Tools for designers? VS Tools for all people?
- SHANE: Who are these tools for? Its unclear – Arn’t there already tools to do this.
- SUS, OMAR: Mention where the data is coming from, Make it clear what data is available and how it translates to usable data
- SUS: You could argue that this is for designers, not people- optional for home owners to do some first drafts
- SUS: Mark out tools that I have written VS what is already existing
- SHANE: Its a lot of work- its a complex proposal for the thesis timeline. What is the output of the thesis simplified
- OMAR: What are you fabricating for this thesis?
- SUS, OMAR, SHANE: In the beginning- mention that this is based on the wiki house, that is a static model- onto which you are adding sustainable adaptation components, modified for cnc on site.
- SUS: How many wikihouses have been built,
- OMAR: Is there a way to make an online interface for home owners and designers to access all this data – perhaps that is the FUTURES section.
- SUS: It needs to be clear if there are any models similar to this,
- OMAR: Storyboard steps of how the same house changes as it responds to data.
- SUS: Build up on the same image- to simplify the presentation.
Introduction- Issues,
What is open source design- what can we get from that
What is open source data- what can we get from that
What is consumer level manufacturing what can we get from that
