FACADE + FURNITURE = HYPER TRANSFORMATION
The critical factor which distinguishes a facade from any other building element is the exterior ELEMENTS. How can these exterior elements be explored to and taken as the main parameters to create your hyper cell? In what way can the facade be part of a functional furniture system? Shall it function as an internal piece of furniture, external... or both ?
The Facade element consists of a series of square box elements attached to eachother by means of a 90degree hinge. By means of rotation and translation transformations, the facade system is abel to expand by 41% of the original, while also creating opening for lighting and ventilation. Furthermore in the interior spaces the facade system offers a mlultitude of furniture functions such as shelving, lounge seating and dining/working table.
