Overview

This is my initial blog site for my Architectural Design Thesis which I am working on at the University of Newcastle upon Tyne. The whole content, name and location/format of this is subject to change through the development of the thesis, however it serves as a good starting point for developing my thesis project.

As a thesis topic, I am intending to investigate responsive adaptive environments integrating digital technologies into the building fabric. This is NOT the case of installing automatic doors just because you can (in a techno-anoracky way) but through an understanding of dynamic social/human requirements and integrating a built form which is capable of responding, adapting and augmenting this. The concepts and ideas are going to develop into something better articulated and concrete through this process and I welcome any comments/ideas which could help with this process.

The idea is that this site as part of the design development is dynamic, responsive and adaptive just as my project is and the development of this is in integration with potential technologies and ideas that the project is associated with.

Its all tbc, all in flux, all changable, adaptable and responsive... just the way I want it to be.
